Whoot, whoot double whoot whoot!

I.passed. Hoooooray!!!

I got the letter on Saturday. I almost passed out from anticipation... but it came, and I passed! NOW I can finally relax. And finish up wedding plans. :) Hollah!

DONE. For realz

Well, it's over. Finally. After alllll the months of worry, dread, and studying till I was cross-eyed, it's over. I was in there from 8:30-4. The first half of the day was multiple choice (150), and the afternoon was essay.
Was it really as bad as I thought, you might ask??

YES. It was. Perhaps worse.
After reading the questions on the first page, I had a moment of pure panic. My vision actually blurred and I freaked. I didn't know any of them. These were questions I had never seen in my life. Concepts we had never talked about.
So I skipped to the next page, and it got a little better. Then it got a little worse. I skipped over 50 questions the first time through.
At lunch, I discovered everyone else in my program thought maybe we had been given the wrong test, too.
But we hadn't.
So I have no idea how I did. Fingers crossed that I got a 70%. For real. Fingers crossed. I was hoping to have this huge sense of relief that's over, but I'm not quite there... Now I'm just nervous about the results. Oh, and essays went great. I think. Oh, no.
But I AM glad it's OVER. There is no more studying and freaking out (well, except for the normal amount). Who's letting me borrow "Twilight?" Tonight?

Where you can find me:

TOMORROW: 9 a.m.-4:30 p.m. COMPS... Oh, Lord, here it comes.
Tomorrow 4:30-??: At the bar. Either crying or celebrating, it remains to be seen.
Thursday night: Juanita's for Ben Nichols
Friday: BACHELORETTE PARTY.

Counting down the hours... Think of me tomorrow. I need all the good vibes I can get.

Many, many pictures today!!

This picture is from FOREVER ago, but I have not updated in forever, so here it is! ;) This is from Melissa's birthday waaaay back on October 17th. HAPPY VERY VERY VERY BELATED BIRTHDAY to my wonderful sister.
I truly love this picture.


What a busy weekend we had! Friday was our HALLOWEEN SHOWER, so be sure to head over to the wedding bloggity today to see the millions of pictures. Everyone looked awesome.
This is the pumpkin we carved this year. You might notice an odd sheen on it....


That's because we painted it with blacklight-reactive paint! Jeremy hung a blacklight on the porch, so our jackolantern was so super spoooooky and glowy this year. The kids loved it. ;)

SPEAKING OF JEREMY... it was HIS birthday yesterday! We went to Playtime Pizza on Saturday to celebrate and out to dinner with his folks last night. I made him pumpkin cake... mmmmmm! More pictures... scroll on!

Engage-iversay...

Not only was yesterday Jeremy's birthday, but it was our engage-iversary. It has been exactly one year since we got engaged (can you believe it? I cannot.)! To commemorate, we drove out to the spot where he proposed (Flatside Wilderness) with the pups and checked out all the gorgeous trees that are blowin' up. It was a gorgeous day, and it was really nice to revisit our spot. I haven't been there since that day. We have just about a month and a half until the wedding. I can't wait!

Pooty-Zoey were also very happy to return to the spot. ;)

That rock is exactly where the proposal took place. Everybody say, "awwwww...!"

Pretty awesome though, yes?
