♥ Bye April.

Wow.  Am I the only one that feels like April seriously FLEW by?! I've been slacking.

Brooks and I have been crazy busy lately.  Brooks survived this semester/finals and is now on a nice little break from school while working.  I, on the other hand, still have two more weeks of school and I have some BIG finals and decisions coming up, and I seriously just can't wait for it to be over.

My job at the law office ended after a year by me being honest with my managers about my plans over summer and how I was going to have to quit in May, and them deciding to let me go early so they wouldn't have to keep paying me.  At first, I was really frustrated by it, feeling like I had worked hard for them for a year and mad that they couldn't give me the courtesy of staying just a couple more weeks after being so honest, but I decided to look at the bright side instead and use the time I had planned on working for studying/school assignments.  It ended up being a blessing in disguise because I honestly don't think I could've met my deadline if I hadn't been able to use the extra hours! (I'm finishing my program early so I can go to AZ for a wedding and start my internship soon after).  I have literally spent all day every day at school taking tests and studying, and needless to say I'm a little exhausted.  

Thankfully, I finished all my big tests and projects before this weekend while Brooks' family was in town for his brother Hunter's graduation.  We were able to relax and spend some time with them, which was a lot of fun.  Brooks and I also went to the Lagoon amusement park nearby for one of our dates as a way to celebrate the end of the school year.  It wasn't Disneyland, but hey, I'll take it.

 We're hoping after a busy and stressful month of April we will have a fun month of May, and are excited to begin it by being called as Nursery Leaders at our church!  Most people don't like the calling because it's basically babysitting the "terrible two" stage, but we honestly couldn't be more thrilled.  

Playtime and Snacks for two hours?  I'm down.

Hopefully it'll help prepare us for our own future monsters kids.

Anyways, I should probably start dinner.  I'm a whiz at making store-bought salad/orange chicken. 

Xoxo.
