Procrastinitis

What I thought was going to be a stressful, time-crunched, studying-cramming week has just turned into a relaxing, snowed-in 2 days of bliss with oodles amount of study time, therefore why not put it off and write a blog post instead?!

A typical day-in-the-life of college student, Jeana - "oh I have plenty of time to study...later!" as I indulge in any kind of food that I can scrounge up to satisfy my cravings d/t bored-ness and by passing my time doing anything that isn't school related! (okay, so not all the time...but I definitely need to work on my time-management skills and unhealthy eating habits!)
I believe I have a very severe case of procrastinitis d/t its comorbidity of senioritis.

*Sigh* only 3 more months or 13 weeks or 88 days until graduation! - Enter gigantic-ly huge grin :D! -

And since it's been a while since I've updated this blog...I'll give a little recap into what's been going on in our life the past month.

- Took a "2nd" honeymoon to Riviera Maya, Mexico over my college break.  It was a much-needed get-a-way and we thoroughly enjoyed it even though it rained every single day we were there!  We did enjoy a few hours of sunshine our last day before heading home!

waiting for our plane and hoping our flight wouldn't get cancelled!


There was always some sweet looking design on our bed each day!

Last day before heading home...notice the sunshine!

- Had the pleasure of spending part of a day with this special girl from CT!

K & T joined us for lunch.  Little did I know they were all keeping a secret from me! ;)
~~~~~
- Spent a fun weekend in January with the Eisenmann's at the Old School Center in Farmington, IL.

Guess the word game

Service projects

Lots 'n' Lots of V-ball!  An Eisenmann fav...

Kirk & Kurt played their fair share of pool...

Relay games - my team had the tallest & strongest tower! Go us!

We also had the longest bridge!

Spent a Saturday Skiing in WI with some of Kirk's siblings.

- Kirk had the FLU virus over valentine's day so instead of going out to eat, I decided to cook a fancy meal in.  Here's what it amounted too!

Choc covered strawberries for appetizer (some of them came in the mail as part of my Valentine's Gift!)

Shrimp Fettuccine Alfredo, oven fried veggies, and cheesy garlic-basil bread - delish!

The other part of my gift was a dozen roses in the mail!  First time to have flowers delivered by UPS!

And Creme Brulee for dessert!  Double-yum!

While life has been a bit stressful and I could find many reasons to complain, instead I'm thankful.  Thankful that I can go to school and learn.  Thankful that I have the health and strength to get out of bed each day and go about my daily duties.  Thankful for a husband who has a job and provides for our family.  My heart goes out to those who have recently lost loved ones.  A dear mother & grandmother, and a dear son & brother.  We just never know what tomorrow may hold, but we do know who holds the future, and for that I'm thankful.

Finally.  The rest of the pictures of our wedding weekend.
I've been wanting to get these pictures up before I catch up on all the other life happenings except that I'm soo late in this post that I've been putting off posting it because I feel like I don't have any words... so I'll just let the pictures write the story!

Family





Yeah... this is how my side of the family pictures went...and we are MUCH smaller! But that's ok...life's not perfect!
