Darlene visit
I just love it when Darlene comes! We shop, eat, and just have so much fun! My whole family loves her so we can all have good fun.
This trip we got to relax in the pool. (Darlene was a little red!! not used to the Texas sun!) We ate at Babes (such a favorite of mine!) We went and saw "Julie and Julia". So funny. We shopped-- Can you say Sam Moon?! The best place for purses and jewelry. We got facials (oh how I love to relax!!!)We went to the Mesquite rodeo! So fun!! Family was with us for most of this so there are good pictures coming on Rachel's blog. Let's hope she sends them to me.
Darlene and I sang "For the Beauty of the Earth" at church yesterday. I know there were a few mess ups by each of us, but it was just fine. We also went and played games at Richard's house. Always a ton of fun! I won a game of pass the pigs!! Darlene killed Richard and I at Phase 10. There will have to be a rematch!
Thanks for coming to see me Darlene! A great trip and the most needed break from work!
THE BEST NEWS-- I GOT AN A in Anatomy and Physiology 1!! WAHOO!!!!

Swim fun
The best thing about summer is swimming...and ice cream. I finally got around to taking some pictures of the kids swimming. Kamden was doing the hokey-pokey too. He is a crackup. Kinsee was being a little sassy, but having fun too. We got some rain/ cloudy days this week so the pool cooled off!!! It was nice to have a cool pool when it was 100* yesterday.
I am really boring lately. Class is sort of wrapping up which means lets cram 5 chapters down your throat and take a test 3 classes later! ugh. Aug. 6 is not soon enough. Not sure when I will find out from Weatherford Co. if I get accepted to the program. I first have to do an interview, so if I get to do that, then I know I am in the top 25!!
Darlene is supposed to come and visit me in Aug. before she starts school. That will be fun!

stuff
I haven't written in a bit, but I am not too sure what to tell! School is going well. I have done pretty decent on the tests. I am enjoying the class. I have mostly finished my application for the sonography school. I had to take an entrance exam on Friday. It went well. I knew the reading would be fine. I studied for the math so that went okay. The science-- not so great. I took about 15 min. for the 55 min. section. I just didn't remember my grade school science! sheesh. The grammar was okay. I was never very good at commas, and that is still true!
Texas is so HOT! We need a serious rain to cool things off. At least we were able to shoot off fireworks on the 4th.
Work is work. It is good for now. I hope we can keep most of our student load into the fall.
I am most excited for the 6th Harry Potter movie to come out. I have reread the 6th and 7th books in prep for this. I have borrowed the 4th and 5th movies.... I just love the books and movies!!!!!

Hot Air
It is HOT in Texas! Good thing I work inside.
Yesterday I got to earn extra credit for my class by helping the Lions Club at the Hot Air Balloon Show. I took money for parking. There were surprisingly a TON of people there! It was advertised as being a free event-- but nothing is ever free (parking, food, helicopter rides). The sad thing was the hot air balloons couldn't even take off. It was barely too windy. They were supposed to be doing a balloon glow to music. I am sure it was neat, but there was no way after 4 1/2 hours of standing that I was going to hang out-- and who would want to get stuck in all of that traffic!!!
Work and school are going okay. I need more time to study. This week my teacher could tell I was quite stressed out and asked when it was all going to calm down... sigh--never?! So I am trying to study more so I can do better. Guess when you show up to class wearing a Sylvan shirt the teacher expects you to be at the top of the class and not in the middle! I will keep trying.
