Shout Hallelujah for the Sun!

So yesterday, Grayson and I took a little walk. It was absolutely GORGEOUS outside! The sun was shining, and it was making me smile. It brightened my day even more when I saw flowers blooming. Ah spring... We stopped by Susan's house and played with Juney for a little while. She makes me laugh. She was running around in her underwear and batting her eyes at Grayson saying, "Ah, he loves me." I love that girl. She has so much spunk for a girl so young. After we left Susan's, we walked a little further before heading home. Grayson obviously enjoyed the ride himself because by the time we got home, he was fast asleep in his stroller. I'm so glad that spring is finally making an appearance. The sunshine and warmth is rejuvenating my spirit. Welcome spring.

I love this little face!

It seems I'm not the only one to love this face! We went to visit grandma and grandpa on Sunday. They just moved here from Idaho and were able to see Grayson for the first time. They absolutely loved him. My grandpa was saying, "I always thought that I had the cutest grandchildren, but now I can see that it is being passed down to the next generation also" amidst my grandma saying, "Well baby, he is just so strong!" We loved spending time with grandparents. Grandpa started telling us stories about the 18-wheelers that he used to drive. He loves talking about his truck driving days, and I love hearing about them. Here is Grayson with them...scroll down :).

Graduation

Lately I have been thinking about graduation (maybe because its only 2 months away!). One part of me is so excited to graduate and move on to bigger things. I'm excited to be able to work and be paid for what I'm doing. The extra money will be nice. But...there is a big part of me that is really scared to graduate. School has kind of been a safe spot for me...something that I could always focus on. It seems a little silly--even to me--to be scared to graduate. But, graduation means that things will change. I'm also scared of losing so many precious/fun memories that I have had at Westminster. I have met so many great people and made dear friends. Here are some of the memories that will be missed:





Although I will miss seeing these people all of the time--like I said, I'm excited to do new things. One thing in particular that I'm excited about is developing my art skills. I have always loved to do art, but I just don't seem to have the time to do it. Here is one of my art pieces that I am particularly proud of:
Kind of a crappy picture of it--but it will do. We will see what future projects will bring!
