Graduation!

Today I am officially a college graduate.  I can't say I feel any different though ;)  I didn't actually go to graduation.  I was too busy to worry about the preparations and buying cap and gown and such, and didn't think it was that important.  But I'm glad that I have that degree now.  Although what I want to do with my life doesn't require a degree, I am glad that I have that if I need to get a different job or something.  My parents took me to lunch to celebrate.  We went to Olive Garden.  I love that place.  And they gave me some gifts too.  They are so nice :)  Later in the day I had a photoshoot in the orchard, and Blake took a couple pictures of me when we were done.  I guess they can be my graduation pictures.  I like this one alot :)

So now I have a college degree.  It's a goal I've had since I was young, so I'm glad that it is something I've accomplished.

Happy Easter!

All of you who know Peeps know how much she loves chickens.  A while ago when we tended her we decided to take her to see some chicks.  The guy who owned Stokers Nursery was really cool and let us just take the chicks out and play with them for a while.  He even trusted us to bring them back and so he just went home after he showed us where they were.  Ohhh my goodness these guys were sooo cute!  They were only 1 day old, and they were sooooo fuzzy!  I don't think there is anything softer than a baby chick.  Needless to say Peeps was thrilled (and we enjoyed it too ;) ).  We were all sad we had to leave them, but I'm afraid we're not equipped to care for a chicken, and they don't look this cute at even a week old.  When we got home Peeps said that it was a dream come true or something along those lines, and then said "Are we gonna do anything fun today?"  "What do you mean, fun?  We just went and played with baby chicks!"  "I know, but now what are we gonna do for fun?"  Apparently it wasn't enough excitement for her.  Haha.  If you care to look, there is a video on my facebook of the chicks peeping and cheeping.  They make really cute noises, and I swear they never stop.  That was such a fun day.  :)

You probably all just died of cuteness right now.  I apologize.
I hope you all have a happy Easter, and I also hope that you all enjoyed conference as much as I did!  Having it on Easter was a special blessing :)

You should be soooo proud of me right now

I did something today that I have never done in my life.  I killed a spider.  It was in the shower and I really really wanted to take a shower, but Blake wasn't home to kill the evil thing.  I squished it with an empty toilet paper tube.  And then I cried for a few minutes because I was so scared.    The end.
