So, I haven't typed for a couple days because I have been swamped with school work and Will has been swamped with work. He is doing some painting for a friend of ours in the ward and it's keeping him busy. I have been studying and briefing cases for hours on end. The weather is starting to cool down here and it's really nice. Hoodie weather is what Will calls it. Everything is going great for us. Hope all is well with eveyone back home n all around!!
Hey everyone!!! So today we celebrated our friend and insurance agents birthday. His name is Ron Williams and we are getting to be pretty good friends with him. His birthday was actually yesterday but he had plans so we invited him over to our house tonight. We got him a chocolate birthday cake with candles. He was super suprised when we brought it out and started singing to him. It was lots of fun. The rain finally stopped (for now) and the sun is out again. It starting to get pretty chilly at night and early in the morning. It's nice to see fall starting. I can't wait for the leaves to change here. Will has been staying busy painting for Dave and he has met some friends in the Ward that he had been hanging out with. I have been well.......briefing cases and briefing cases and briefing more cases. I think I'm getting the hang of it but it's a really tricky process to learn. Anyways, we are going to get some sleep so take care and peace out!!
This is one of the turtles we saw swimming in a little pond on our bike ride. Will was freakin out at how big this turtle was. There was also lots of little snapping turtles in the pond.
Hey everyone this is going to be short cuz I have soooo much work to do, but I just wanted to say that I made it through the first week of law school. WOO-HOO. I can't say the same for a lot of my class members. We had quite a few kids decide this wasn't the career path they wanted. Will is doing great. He got a raise at work and has been fixing up our Jetta. He is actually putting some new brakes on it right now with a friend Ron and our neightbor Mike. I just finished my last class for the week and let's just say I'm a little overwhelmed, but it's all good, if it wasn't hard it wouldn't be worth it. I go to school three days a week and I have an extra class on Friday nights to learn about writing essays and analysis. I have decided that I will probably study from 30-35 hours a week. It's crazy but I guess it's just law school. Tomorrow sometime Will n I are going to go ride our bikes on a trail and have a picnic to get away from the books for a couple hours. The weather is gettin a little chilly here and really humid. We love you all and if anyone has any words of widsom or encouragement please feel free to post them on my blog!!! HA HA!! Thanks n love ya all!!
Wow. I can hardly believe it's already September. I start school tomorrow and I spent all day doing homework for class tomorrow. This law school thing is definately going to take me out of my comfort zone. We were warned in orientation that you should expect to be called on in class everyweek to recite a case. I have found that briefing is pretty tricky but I think as time goes on and I learn more techniques it will get easier. Will n I went golfing for Family Home Evening last night at Mulberry Golf Course in Oxford. It was soooooo much fun and it was sooo pretty. We were totally out in the farm land area. It felt like being on the Milford Flat. There was one whole on the cours that you had to tee off over a big pond. I hit about five balls in the water before I hit on and landed it on the green. Will is such a good golfer. He wants to join a league somewhere around town. We are looking for the cheapest golf course for him to join. Some courses around here charge 50 bucks per person for nine holes. Ne ways, we talked to Dilly Bop and Nix tonight and I wanted to tell Nix that I'm super proud of her home run in school today and thanks to Dilly for singin some What Mine Done!!!! It was great. I'm soooo grateful to be here in Michigan and to have this opportunity to fulfill one of my dreams and also to have a great hubby and family and friends supporting us. We love you all and PEACE OUT!!!!
