It's Beginning To Look A Lot Like Christmas

Well this wasn't the best of weeks. Everything seemed to go wrong and stress after stress factor just piled on, and the end of the week couldn't come soon enough. But it finally arrived and Reid treated me to a blast from the past.

Oh the memories! I was also surpised to see Josh and Reid's Christmas tree, with presents already under it.

Good job boys, nicely done!

Things we get to look forward to this week: K-State basketball game at the Sprint Center, meeting with the florist, and finishing up registering. Oh and a paid day off! Can't complain about that.

Who Would Have Guessed...Another Wedding Post!

Reid and I had a nice, relaxing Thanksgiving weekend. Reid's wedding ring came in and we picked it up. Only 6 more months and he can wear it!

Aside from the ring, we finalized our honeymoon plans. Looks like we are heading to Jamaica for a week in the sun! We opted out of Greece because a car seemed a little more important. We also decided to get our intials engraved in our champagne flutes. They turned out AWESOME!

After the holidays I'm sure things are going to fly by and I coudn't be more excited. Can't wait for all the details to start coming together!

We May Be Moving On...But Our Wildcat Pride Will Stay Forever

It was a sad State Saturday as Reid and I attended our last home game for a little while. Luckily our team decided to play today so we got to enjoy the "entire" game! It was the perfect ending to an unfortunate year of football for K-State. But we still wore our purple proudly and will continue to wherever we go next.


The Peaceful Konza

Sunday, we took advantage of the BEAUTIFUL weather and went hiking on the Konza Prairie. Plus Reid got to test drive the new car and see how it handles the gravel road!!




Welcome to the Family...

Even though our football team sucked today, we still had a good Saturday because Reid parted with an old semi-friend. Today we said goodbye to the Sentra and hello to...



This is our new car, a 2006 Jeep Liberty!!! We went this morning to just see if they had any decent ones at the Jeep dealership in town. We did the paperwork and got to drive it off the lot. From there, Tara decided to get me an early Christmas present...



While we were out running errands, we went to get some more wedding stuff...

It's Time To Grow Up

...UPDATE...


So while we were researching law schools, we worked up quite an appetite! Here was our dinner...grilled chicken, green peppers, mushrooms and zuchinni, homemade mashed potatoes and for desert a peach on the grill with honey, cinnamon and sugar!



















.............................................................................

I took the LSAT on Saturday morning this past weekend...but I won't find out how I did for two to three weeks. I took a full practice test on Friday afternoon before Tara got to Manhattan that I didn't do too hot on, but I felt like I did much better on the one on Saturday! It was nice that I got out in time to go to the KSU-Texas Tech football game (which TT stomped us)!

Also, one of the tasks that Tara and I had for this weekend in Manhattan was to make final decisions on which law schools I want to apply for. Here is the final list (in order that I/we want to go to):

University of Colorado (Boulder, CO)
University of Utah (Salt Lake City, UT)
University of Oregon (Eugene, OR)
University of Wyoming (Laramie, WY)
Wake Forest University (Winston-Salem, NC)
Gonzaga University (Spokane, WA)
Santa Clara University (Santa Clara, CA)
Campbell University (Buies Creek, NC) - Tara couldn't stop laughing because their mascot is the fighting camels...

Engagement Ring

5 diamonds and many a tears later, we decided it was time for a new ring. The other one was just poorly made and I was at the point where I had it off more than on. I was pretty much afraid to wear the thing. So we went back to the jeweler and traded in the band. Here it is...










This ring came with a band as well. One less thing we have to worry about later!
