Snow Day - February 16, 2010

Yah, I know - enough with the dog! It's just that I love seeing her play in the snow and we have so much of it.

Ah, Christmas Day!

Here's a slideshow of our house (now that we have all the rooms finally set up and decorated for Christmas) and a few things we've been up to during the holiday break. Hope you're having a wonderful holiday too!!!!

Thanksgiving Break

Thanksgiving Break was great. I really felt like I got a lot done. I even slept!

David and I enjoyed a fabulous meal with Mair, Nicole, Abby and Sara. Mair and Nicole outdid themselves! It was truly amazing.

The next morning snow started to fall. It wasn't a lot, but it was still really pretty! Pai and I got our morning walk in before it disappeared.

I was able to get a lot of homework done - finished a small paper, started a mock proposal, and worked on my Dance and Tech final which involves Jennifer Micallef's website. I'm excited that her website will be a reality soon.

Besides school work, David and I were able to finish filming our animation experiment. Hopefully I'll have this puppy finished by Christmas!

One week of classes and then it's finals week and then a REAL break. I'm looking forward to it!

The Day before the First Day of Grad School

We're so close to getting settled into the new house. Tonight is "accessory" night where I see if there's a place for a few select items to place on furniture, like these new bedside tables I painted black.

The windows desperately need curtains and the walls need artwork!

Hmmm. I wonder when I'll HAND SEW these curtains???!!!

The Healthy Side of Urban

David and I have been marking time till the last move into our more permanent residence. Last weekend David went to Chicago for his high school reunion and to spend time with life-long friends. He came back with a bike that he and his friend Chuck spruced up after finding in a dumpster. Good find! Once we get settled and I establish myself a bit into the rhythm of school, we're getting me a bike as well. We like to see how long we can go without driving the car. So far we haven't gotten past two days at a time - but that's still good. It's nice to only fill the car up with gas once a month!

Sunday Hike

We went on another hike today. This time, a little shorter - although it was much hotter. This weekend we had temperatures in the 90s, a little closer to normal summer temperatures for Columbus. Today's hike was a 3.5 miler at Highbanks. The pet trail is more wooded than at Glendon and is overall, a larger park. I'm looking forward to going back again, but also going to the next park. This discovery thing is pretty cool!
