I'm BAAACCKKKK!!!

Haha, it's been a month since I've updated this... news (in no particular order)....

Birds - the 6 from TSC are GROWING! Fully feathered now, living in the chicken tractor which I've placed in the barn due to the copious amounts of rain and wind we've been having. The 4 that I hatched are no more... one just disappeared one day and then I went out one day and they all 3 were dead :( oh well. I have been getting about 6 eggs a day (up to 8 some days!) which is cool.

School - FINALS WEEK! I've got my theology final today, Accounting tomorrow, Physics Wednesday, Vert Zoo on Thursday and then I'M DONE! I can't wait! Hoping that grades turn out as well as I'd like them too!! I have been looking at some grad schools... found one in Mississippi (MSU) and they have a bunch of pretty cool looking research projects, lots of wildlife management type profs too. I'm going to look into schools in KS today (more on that later)

Tim - is alive! Doing good too! He called on Sunday, just a 13 minute call but still a phone call! Today they had their final PT to determine whether or not they'll actually be able to graduate from BCT and move on to AIT. I'm not really worried that he'll have problems but there's always the chance that something could go wrong. If he didn't pass I'm pretty sure he'll get a phone call home to let us know. Assuming that all goes well he thinks he's going to be going to Ft. Riley, KS after graduation... I already found a few ladies from MSOS that are stationed there and they said it's really nice (it's also the reason I'm looking for schools in KS!!) I'm not 100% certain that that's where he's going (nothing is ever "final" until it happens!) and I don't know how long he'll actually be stationed there but it's still cool to hear that he'll most likely be stateside!! There are a few people from his company that are going to Korea right after graduation, not that Korea is BAD but it's just SO FAR AWAY!!

Over the weekend I went up to Rochester for the Rochester Youth Conference, met tons of friends, had a great time. Scott DeGroff was the speaker, he is SUCH a GOOD SPEAKER! Every time I hear him I'm amazed at how well he can get his point across. This weekend the focus was "In the Pursuit of Christ." It was really good. I stayed with Bob and Bonnie which was a little rough (sleeping in Tim's room without him there...) but I survived and had fun. Got to see my lil' (almost) nephew, Carter, he's getting so big! He'll be 1 in May and he's starting to learn how to walk!! It's so cute!

Georgia plans! - Got my plane ticket!! I fly out of Erie at like 1:15pm and fly into Atlanta at 7:15-ish. I've got a 2 hour layover in Cleveland but my options were 2 hour layover or like 45 minute layover, I figured that since Jess's plane doesn't come in until 8:30 I might as well have the longer layover in case something went horribly wrong!! Less chance of me missing a flight! I cannot wait to leave!! Only a few more weeks!

Well... that's all the news for now! I'll try to do a better job of keeping you updated!
