I think that sometimes I get so caught up in our everyday lives that I forget that I have a blog and need to update it. However, it doesn't seem like we have had any "blog worthy" events the past couple of weeks. We have gotten back into the groove of school and work after being on our two week vacation in Utah. This semester is a whole new ball game in law school. As if the first semester isn't enough to scare you, they tack on a whole another class just to make things a little bit more intense. And intense is precisely the word I would choose to describe this semester so far. Chad has often been waking up as early as 4a.m. in the morning just to get in some extra study time. He is such a dedicated little student. Time for me to start some new hobbies to keep me occupied. Yesterday we went to an all day youth activity...yes all 6 and a half hours! Although it was by far the longest activity I've ever been to that wasn't put into the category of Youth Conference or girls camp I think it was really good for the kids to be there and learn about the new theme for the year. We also got to participate in a crab soccer game with all of the leaders. I have to say I was impressed with Chad's crab soccer skills. I think we may have discovered a hidden talent.
Last week Chad and I had a little date night. It all started with a romantic dinner of waffles and yummy syrups. Delicious! I do have to say that I love eating breakfast foods for dinner. For some reason they just seem to taste extra good. Then Chad turned on some country tunes and we had a little country dance. Well at least we tried for a while. Chad claims to have taken two dance classes during his college years, but I have yet to see anything he learned other than the few moves he did with me during our date that night. We had so much fun and I just couldn't help but keep laughing as we danced in our little living room. Then we headed off to an all out extravagant dinning place to get dessert...well extravagant for poor law students at least. We went to Sonic! haha Sonic has many, many memories for me. First, because that was me and my best friend Melissa's favorite place to go and get lemon berry slushies and chat. The second reason is because Chad and I went and got drinks at Sonic on our second date and that is where we told each other that we liked each other. I think Chad's exact quote went like this: "Finally it works out where we both like each other and I'm leaving!!! Of all the luck!" Little did we both know that we would get married just a few months later. So Sonic was in my mind the perfect place to have a little dessert. Although the slushie machine just happened to be broken we still had a great time. It may not seem like a big date to you, but for me it stands out as one of my favorites to remember.
