We finished up November with a great bang, not much else happened. We just kept plugging along. We reached the last week of classes last week. Cody worked hard almost every night to finish up his classes in time. His stuff was all due last Thursday. So he finished up all classes. I have another week, just finals. I only have 2 tests and 3 projects due but it could be so much worse.
Last Wednesday night, Cody took a break to take me on a date. We ran some errands and spent some time together. While we were out and about I got a phone call. I didn't recognize the number so I ignored it figuring if it was important that person would leave me a message. Well sure enough they did.
About a month ago I applied to a trip sponsored by the Art department at UVU. They only accept 16 students a spring to go to New York City for a week to check out museums and do some sight seeing. I thought I would just try it out and if I didn't get it then okay, I would just find another time to go and see those places. I hadn't heard a word for over a month when I got that message on my phone. It was the head of the photography department calling me, telling me I was one of the lucky 16 students accepted into the trip. I was so excited, I screamed so loud I scared Cody half to death while he was driving. I couldn't help but do my happy dance when we got out of the car. I have been stoked ever since.
So, In March 2009 I will be going to New York for a week. I get to go to museums like the Met and the Guggenheim. What a trip! The only downer is I have to share a room with 3 other girls, and we only have 2 queen size beds. It is going to be a little cramped but I am so excited to see all these things!!
Other than that exciting news we are doing great. Tyke is in love with the snow, other than the cold. He loves running through the grass picking up mouthfuls of snow as he runs by. He has been keeping us busy. He is a sleeper all day because it is freezing and he stays inside, but when night time comes around he is as hyper as can be with all the energy in the world. He is the funnest dog though.
Well... we hope all is good with you, hopefully we will have some fun wintery pictures and some Christmas ones (we are planning on going to temple square and seeing the lights)soon!
..Merry Christmas..
