Summer is gearing up to be VERY BUSY for us here, and different than the usual summers.
Jen is almost done with her courses and her master's. All of her academic courses are done, and all she has left is to complete her necessary hours (She has to do 400 by graduation) and to pass her board exams this December, so this summer she is taking time off work to focus on her volunteering. She is splitting up her time between two schools in her district - a high school and an elementary school - and will be doing this for 6 weeks. When she finishes in July, she'll have an entire month off before reporting back to her school for work.
Jeff has also been completing his coursework as well. For the past year, he has been enrolled in Pathways, the online prerequisite courses for BYU - Idaho, and has been very successful thus far. When he completes his courses (also in July) he can transfer to the online program the university has, and he will complete his business degree through the school.
We also have the usual craziness that comes with owning dogs and living life in general. Such events include:
- Going to see Motown The Musical. We hadn't gone in FOREVER to see a live show, so we ran to San Jose and enjoyed some great music and had a blast.
- Reshelving the books. Our home is overloaded with books (not that it's a bad thing!) so we put in a new unit into the family room. Now every book has a home... until we bring home more!
- Gardening. We started a garden again this year. So far, it's peppers, corn and tomatoes that are growing but we have zucchini and other plants we want to buy for the summer. Wish us luck!
