So one of my new year's resolutions of sorts is to blog some more to keep track of what is going on in our crazy lives! So in theory this should be a weekly thing, and that should be fun right?
Okay let's see what has been going on lately with the Webb family:
Last night we went to the stake Valentines dance. We were just so cute! They took pictures at the dance, but we haven't gotten those yet. I convinced Jake to take me to a photo booth at the movie theater, so we did! (That's what these photos are from) Other things we have been doing for fun... We moved all the furniture around in our house, so I've got a new computer station in the kitchen, and the book shelf is out in the living room now. It seems like such an ingenious idea, I can't imagine why we didn't do it before! We've also been doing a co-op type thing call Bountiful Baskets. It's been so exciting to get new food I usually wouldn't buy. We've only done it two times but we've gotten pineapple both times, and some other things. I've finally tried brussel sprouts and asparagus due to our basket yieldings, and I have to say that they really aren't that bad. They both almost taste like broccoli. We also got radishes this last time, so I'll have to look through pinterest for some new ideas.
Update on Jake's Life: Jake had an exciting turn of events this semester, he changed majors! (again! but he's going to stick with this one, he promises!) He's now majoring in Human Development, so he can graduate in April 2013 with me and we can move on with our lives! So he can get away from doing things he doesn't like (theoretical physics) and into things he does like! (pretty much anything else). He's learning all new sorts of things in his classes and he's already psychoanalyzed me with his new information. I can't think of a day that goes by that he doesn't have something new to tell me about his classes. So if that's any indication, it must be going better for him. Nothing new really going on with him for work, he's still delivering food around campus. The worst part has been that he works the 5:00 AM shift so he has to be up at 4:30. You know me, the lack of sleep starts to make us not the brightest, happiest people.
Update on my life: School is getting kinda crazy for me. This semester I'm taking a critical theory class and it's just killing me. It's my first 400 level class and pretty much half of the students in my class are graduate students. I'm feeling way out of my league with all the Plato and literary critics. The reading alone is a killer, so that's tough. On the upside, I'm taking two grammar classes this semester for my minor and it's fun to finally know the reasons behind all those corrections I have to make. Speaking of editing, Jake's brother has started going to BYU here, so we've had him over a couple of times. I've been correcting his papers and it's been a lot of fun. I just hope I haven't been too hard on him!
Work is starting to get crazy, Women's Conference is almost here! We've had meetings with the presenters and started dolling out supplies to our service project leaders. We also got our assignments for the summer. I'm in charge of Young Musicians Summerfestival with is our 6 day music camp for band and orchestra kids mostly. Last year we had about 270 kids, so it should be a pretty exciting week. Thankfully I worked on it last year so I hope I'll know what I'm doing.
It's been a hard month or so for me. With Jake's work schedule being so early and my work load starting to pick up, I'm feeling so exhausted all the time. I'm partially hoping it has something to do with my possible PCOS, and I'm excited to meet with the specialist at the end of March. It's a long time away, but at least I know he must be a good doctor if his schedule is so backed up!
Other than that we're just hanging out in Provo.. Harley is getting cuter and cuter, fluffier and fluffier, and also fatter and fatter. :) We've almost had her for a year now, and the time has just flown! We've started to let her sleep on our bed, and it's been fun to have her curled up by our toes, as long as she doesn't chew on them. Her obsession with paper bags continues, but she's gotten so big the take-out olive garden bag is really the only one she fits in.
