BACHELORS DEGREE BABY!

I am proud to say that I FINALLY GRADUATED!  That may sound funny, because I just turned 22 and I was only in college four years which is less than most college graduates, but I FREAKING DID IT WITH A BABY!  When I found out I was pregnant, I almost decided not to go back to school. I would have to take 18 credits a semester and do an internship during the summer...it just sounded like a lot of work. But, I always promised myself that I would graduate, so I did.  And I could not be happier that I did! 
(BUT thank goodness it is over!!!) Here are some pictures from the day that my hubs and I were able to receive our Bachelor Degrees (his in Biology and mine in Community Health)

 Favorite Professor Ever :) 

 My other mamma friend saved my life. 

 My best friend Ashley wanted to see me before graduation and was so sweet to hang around after one of her family members ceremonies.

Graduation selfie!!

 My sister came and brought her two cute kids. Paisley loved playing with baby Sutton :)

We are so dang proud of ourselves!!

 Mr. Craiger gettin his diploma!!

 VICTORY!

 My favorite picture from the day :) 

 Best families I could ever ask for.

It is because of both of our families that we were able to do it...

 (don't mind the hat hair!)

<3 I will always remember this day!

I'm Back!

YA- You read that right!

Over in the Youngins' house- we have finished finals and are starting to finally enjoy this Christmas season! 

With this time of year, everyone is busy- but as a drill coach- not even my Saturdays are free. 

I finally had time to do some Christmas shopping for my honey, but neighbor gifts? friend gifts? anyone-else-gifts? 

YA...non-existent at this point in time...

I keep telling myself- Maybe after Christmas?

Guess we will see about that one...

Oh my goodness! 

I just have SO much blogging to catch up on!

So, please do not mind if you are seeing pictures from the summertime on here- or at least don't be surprised :) HA

It happens folks. 

I have major respect for gals that can do this school thing, work thing, the other work thing, the husband thing, and STILL have time to sit down and compose some thoughts on the screen. 

MAJOR PROPS. 

So as for this gal...

Here comes some big updates- prepare yourselves :)

 

 

Letter from a Wife

Dear Huns,

I am sorry that all you eat anymore is Squigly Noodles (aka. Top Ramen). Oh...and Quesadillas... But hey...I am really glad that we discovered canned Chili again... It is always good to rediscover favorite (canned) foods right? I am grateful that you are so willing to do the dishes all the time. I promise I will start helping more. Thanks for keeping my side of the bed warm when I stay up late doing homework.  Oh, and don't mind my books laying everywhere... I promise I will finally clean up...in 6 weeks. AND last but not least... thank you for being so patient and loving all of the time. You are exactly what I have always needed. Love you always, Your... crazy, sleep deprived, baby hungry, chocolate loving, smilie, "got no time!" wife.
(Oh, yes- this picture does include one of the best 50 year old photo bombers :)- it is a keeper)
