Happy Halloween

And happy birthday to Cherise (Luedtke) Terry. Today Robert and I had school. We are going to the Smith's for a murder mystery party tonight. It takes place in the 80's so we have to come up with costumes. Off to figure my costume out. Be safe Trick-or-Treating.

I've Been Boo'ed

Jamie and my mom have both boo'ed me. I choose to Boo Adrianne, Meredith, Auntie, and Grandma.

Happy Birthday to Me :)

So today is my birthday! Yea! I have now joined the quarter century club. Robert has been absolutely wonderful. He bought me the first two seasons of The Office on DVD and he bought me a rose and gave it to me at school. All the other girls saw it on my carrel (assigned place where I can study in the Law Library) and they all thought that it was cute. They all think that I have a wonderful husband and I most definitely agree. He has been so great.

We went to dinner at Olive Garden. Robert got the lasagna and I got the seafood past (shrimp, scallops and mussels with linguine and a butter herb sauce...yum). Then we had dessert, yummy chocolate cake. Our server was Lucy, she is Adam's old girlfriend. Adam is Robert's old roommate. It was great to be able to catch-up with her. She was a great server.

Now we just have some homework to finish, cleaning to do (probably won't get to it until the weekend), and hopefully some R&R.

Another week is here and it is going to be a fun/busy one. My birthday is tomorrow and I finally have someone to spend it with. Since I came to college I have celebrated my birthday by taking a mid-term or doing some other school-type of thing. I never had a boyfriend to spend it with. Now I have a husband :) Halloween is Friday and we have plans with some of our school friends; it's a murder-mystery game and we are all excited. The school Halloween party is Thursday so we get some lunch and candy at school.

The midterms are over. We both did well on one and okay on another one. Robert got a job as a student rep with Lexis Nexis and we are really excited for that. Lexis is an online research company that law students and lawyers use to well...research. It is great to be able to do research online and not by print (books); plus it's more effective. Anyway, time to study. Finals start in a little over a month .YIKES!

School

Robert and I have two midterms tomorrow. One in business associations, and one in real estate finance. It should not be fun. Typically there are not midterms in law school, there is one final and that is your entire grade (hence total freak-out at finals time). Then they compare your final to your classmates' and then grade accordingly. You could get ninety five percent of the questions correct but if enough people got more questions correct then they get an "A" and you get a "C". Yeah total freak-out at finals. So mini freak-outs when some teachers decide to have midterms. At least tomorrow is FRIDAY!!

Hopefully Friday goes well. We are both tired and need a school break. Sadly we will not get one until Thanksgiving - with finals just around the corner. Went grocery shopping today and had spaghetti for dinner with brownies for dessert (I need chocolate when I freak-out :)

Legally Robert

I have wanted to start a blog for many years now, but I never got around to it. It looks like I needed my wonderful wife to get me started. Hopefully, I will be posting regularly...

Another Week Begins...

Who knows how it will end? Divine Comedy was a lot of fun. After the show we all went to the Ellis' house and played scum (card game) and had some dessert. It was a ton of fun. We all stayed pretty late so Robert and I slept in a little on Saturday (that being around 7:00 am!) Then we cleaned the apartment and went to Bed Bath and Beyond for some things we still need and then to WalMart for other things we still need. Neither of us like shopping so we got it done quickly. I almost got run over by a car. Some stupid lady on her cell phone not looking where she was going suddenly pulled out of her parking spot and almost killed me. Stupid U-tard. She had people in the parking lot screaming at her on my behalf!

Sunday was a good relaxing day. Robert taught Elder's Quorum...I have to teach RS next week. Then Robert had home teaching and stake priesthood meeting where they talked about debt and getting your financial house in order. Poseidon was on tv so we watched that and had dinner. Today we had class and homework and voting to do! I received my absentee ballot today and am placing it in the mail tomorrow! My voice will be heard (or at least my vote will) :) Robert and I have some fun Halloween plans with some friends next week :) :)

The Weekend is Here :)

Robert and I completed our first week back to school after placement break! whew. We are going with two couple friends of ours from law school to Divine Comedy tonight. Divine Comedy is kind of like the SNL skits but clean and way funnier. They do little skits and then a bigger one. In the past they have done "Lord of the Engagement Ring", where they spoofed Lord of the Rings with BYU college life. It is always good for many laughs and we are going early to get good seats. We have some homework to do this weekend and we need to clean the apartment (I have been pretty good about doing a deep clean once a week).

We were so sad about the Cougars loss last night. They looked terrible; they didn't even look like our team. They could have won if they would have played like they are able to. Hopefully this will be wake-up call/fluke and they will be better next week. We still have faith in the Cougs. Happy Friday!

Back to School Blues

So Robert and I are resigned to the fact that we are back in school and we will not have another break until Thanksgiving :( but we are taking it in stride and we are glad to be back in a schedule. Robert is not feeling well, he thinks it is something that he ate. I am doing some homework and planning out finals studying scheduling. We are using our pizza stone again and having homemade pizza again. YUUUMM!!

Well back to homework and having fun being married. Robert and I are always saying "remember this time last year...." We definitely like being married and not having roommates. Nothing against roommates (most of them are pretty cool) but having a spouse is great (especially after six years of having roommates)! It is much easier to study at home now.

Back to School :(

Placement Break is over and Robert and I are back to school. It snowed this weekend and we are hoping that it does not mean winter is here already! Checked the weather and it is supposed to warm back up this week. Robert is an instructor for the Elders Quorum and teaches his first lesson this Sunday. Back to homework, grocery shopping, and laundry. Crunch time is approaching in school and I have to start outlining (the dreaded outlining) for finals. Robert and I register for classes in a few weeks so we are trying to figure out what we each need to take. School is back.

Placement Break

So placement break is almost at an end. The game night with Lauren and Chris went well. We had homemade pizza and Lauren and Chris brought a chocolate pie. YUUUUM!! Robert and I then cleaned and went to the cabin to be with the family for Conference. We have spent the week refinishing the kitchen table that Aunt Jan gave us. It looks great. We have had fun not having school this week and we have just been enjoying ourselves a little :) Next week will be back to shcool and all the craziness that goes along with that. I will send apartment pics next week (I hope, I haven't figured out the whole posting pictures thing yet). Off to dinner. Yum!

Game Night

Tonight is the BYU v. Utah State game. We are having Lauren and her boyfriend Chris over tonight for the game. We are making hommeade pizza and Lauren is bringing dessert. We hope the cougars win and that the pizza is edible. If it is not than we will have to order some. The family is all coming into town today and Robert and I will be with them tomorrow! GO COUGARS!!

Sigh :) Placement Break is finally here and I am so ready for a week of no classes! We are going to get a lot done during the break. Mom and dad were here today helping us hang pictures in our apartment. It is great to have family. Bring on the break.

Exhausted and Hungry

I had to get up early today to finish studying for a mid-term that I had in Real Estate Finance today. Then off to school and class. Then home and off to the Temple. Now Robert and I are home and I am hungry and tired. We have another mid-term tomorrow in Business Associations. I am hoping to get the apartment cleaned spic-and-span tomorrow because Friday my good friend Lauren is coming over to have dinner and watch the football game with her boyfriend. I am excited to meet him. Off to eat-finally!
