5 weeks and counting...

This weekend has gone by a little slower than last, thank God, but still not slow enough. Today is 5 weeks until John starts the Academy and I'm finished with work for the summer. Friday night another couple and John and I went to the Rathskeller to listen to The Polka Boys sing. They are a bunch of older, married guys who play polka music to new and old songs. It was alot of fun but completely packed! We danced until 10:30ish then headed off to bar type restaurant where we sat outside, ate salsa, and talked until midnight. It was good catching up with our friends and I can't wait to hang out with them again!

Do you want to know my favorite part of pedicures? Other than the gorgeous toes, it's a few different things. After I get out of my car and walk towards the nail place, my cell phone goes to silent mode. I spend an hour having my feetsies pampered and loved on. I read a WHOLE magazine in peace. I don't worry at all about my husband calling to ask a question, or a friend texting with the latest work drama. It's completely stress free, my pedicurist doesn't even talk to me. There are no to-do lists to form or lessons to plan. My phone doesn't get turned on again until I am in my car. It's SO nice! So, today I got a pedi. I love the color, however you can see my flip flop tan lines. Oh well, nothing I can do about it until summer when I'm at the beach.

There isn't too much else going on here. John and I did some FBI shopping yesterday and we got him some running shoes and I ordered his sheets. It's really hard finding twin XL sheets when the 'return to college' is nowhere in the near future. But I found some great sheets that I know he will appreciate if only i can keep him from asking how much they cost. :) We're mostly done with the shopping. I can't believe it's in 5 weeks. I'm going to miss him so much but I know we'll get to see each other, hence the flexibility of me not working this summer. Riley and I will get to bond and I'll be able to see my family for longer than a weekend.

Speaking of family, Mom and Josh are coming to Indy! Mom will be here around Wednesday and Josh is driving in Friday night. I can't wait! It's been awhile since I have had family come to see us. I'm already getting a dinner list ready! John is at a movie with Bob and I'm just relaxing and will probably read or get my conference evaluations ready for next week. I hope everyone has a great week!

6 weeks

The FBI has called and officially given John a date for training. He begins June 6. His birthday. Poor guy. :) My last day of school is June 4th so we can drive to Virginia together and I can head straight to Myrtle Beach for my 5th summer with the Bray's. My oh my the years are flying on by!

Louisiana

Hey! We got back from Louisiana yesterday morning about 1am. It was a fantastic trip! We left Friday afternoon so it was a quick one. Friday night I got to eat some yummy crawfish etouffee. Delicious! Saturday we went to a birthday party and I got to see all of my aunts that night. It always does my heart good to see my family. Sunday was spent lounging around and talking after a great breakfast at Hub City. We stocked up on meat (thank goodness)! I didn't take any pictures( of course), I always seem to forget my camera. Well, we are just trying to catch up on our sleep and start shopping for the FBI! I can't wait to see y'all again in July!!!

Spring!

This has been the most relaxing weekend! It's been sunny and 70 both days. Yesterday we spent the day running errands, walking on the canal and downtown, and bar-b-qing. This is John manning the BBQ. Riley was relaxing. We walked with him for almost 2 hours that afternoon.

Just enjoying the evening. We even ate outside it was so nice. After dinner we went to a wine bar downtown to meet his parents and some family that came in from Harrisburg. The conversation and company were wonderful. After that we set out to find an ice cream shop that was open. We didn't get home until after 10pm.

Today was just as great. The windows are all open and the sun is out. I didn't wake up until 10 and then I spent the morning finding plane tickets for us to go to Louisiana. We leave Friday after work! Yay! It's almost nice booking last minute because now we barely have to wait! It's going to be such a quick trip though, that's the only thing that sucks. At least I know that I'll be there for awhile in July (hopefully, if everything goes as planned with the FBI). It's always nice to see my family, even if it is for 48 hours. Hopefully, this week will fly by (which I'm sure it will) and we'll be on our way down south!!!

Easter (again)

We had a great Easter. The best part? Staying in my pajamas ALL day long hanging out in front of the TV with the family after a great meal! We also had a fondue, fondly known as the FUN-do! There was lots of hanging out and lots of laughing (as always).

Our Easter Eggs.

Easter

I am in Charleston, SC for Easter this year. My brothers were able to come down as well, which I am so happy about. Our lives are so crazy with work and school, it's hard to get everyone together at the same time. Today was spent at the beach, as you can see. Tomorrow I will be eating yummy roast and rice and gravy. John isn't here with me because he is working the Final Four game. I'll blog when I get back to tell about my whole trip!

April Fools Day!

Today is April Fools Day and I wanted to get my husband good! Last night I found a picture of a positive pregnancy test online. I took a picture with my camera and left it on the bathroom sink for John to find this morning. He called me and and said "This is a joke right??". It was so funny! He freaked out! Totally made my day :)
