Since I haven't been very good with my posts I figure I am going to do a bunch at once! Here is a little bit of what has been happening this month (since I am averaging about one post per month). We squeezed in a celebration for Jeff's birthday at the beginning of the month. Jeff had started a new block of classes loaded with homework and was also super busy applying/interview for internships, so we felt lucky to find time to go out to dinner!
Things have thankful slowed down a little since Jeff has an internship set for the summer. He is going to be working for a company called BD Medical (Becton Dickinson) in Sandy UT! When he applied for the position he told me where the internship was located and I told him that guaranteed that was the one he would get just because of the irony of it all. He is happy to have it and although it wasn't the adventure I had planned for the summer, I am happy about it too. Now we just need to decide if we should pack all our stuff and moved back in with my parents and save some money or stay here and not worry about the hassle of packing! Nice to know we have options :)
We have also kept busy with MBASA (MBA Spouse Association) activities. They do TONS of stuff like an Easter Egg Hunt, book club, we made I-Spy bags and I don't even go to half the stuff. Anyway, the MBASA has seriously been one of the highlights of the MBA experience for me; I feel like I've had a lot of fun things to keep me busy while Jeff has been busy with school and I've been able to make a lot of friends. Because of that I decided to run for the position of Treasurer in the MBASA Presidency. It was a little bit of a whimsical decision and I didn't put a lot of work into it, but I won and am feeling like it is going to be a great experience. I will be learning more about what I will be doing tomorrow so hopefully I will still feel the same way :) Although, after I won the girl currently holding the position told me it is the easiest job; just what I wanted to hear :)
We have also had a lot of fun trips to C-ville for birthday parties, Disney on Ice, St. Patrick's Day Bash, and of course Easter! We have really had a fun full month and it still isn't over. We still have Michael's birthday to celebrate of Sunday! So fun!
On a side note: (I write these things down so I don't forget)
Drew has really been into learning his letters and the different sounds they make and everything. When we drive around he will point out letters he knows. When we park on campus we usually park in the administrative parking (because it is after 6:00 or we are just waiting in the car for Jeff :) ) and he always tells me we can park there because the A is for Andrew. A couple weeks ago we took him to get his hair cut. On the way home I was telling Jeff I really needed to get my haircut and Drew piped up, "Why?"
"Because it is getting really really long."
"Why"
"Because hair grows so we have to cut it"
"Why"
"Because it will.."
"WHY"
At this point Jeff and I turned around to see why he was so enthusiastic. Ends up he wasn't even listening to me, he was pointing out the window at the big Y on the side of the mountain! Jeff got a good laugh out of it at least :)
