My "Office"


Shannon got a window view. I wasn't as lucky. But I am hidden in a little corner, so that is pretty cool. I'm out of sight of everyone. It's not too bad.

Happy Father's Day!


I may not have a dad to call, but I did call my Grandpa. He's an awesome man. He wished me and Shannon a lot of luck for our new jobs (which start tomorrow) and our new home. I believe we need to find a way to get him out here to see it and us!

Crazy New World

After I passed my Master's report on Tuesday, Shannon and I packed up my office and ate a Manhattan dinner at So Long Saloon with Jenette, Chris, Maria, Mandy. It was nice to eat some good food with everyone. Afterwards, Shannon and I drove to Wichita to gather a lawn mower and some other random objects before going to our new home.

We are here now, in Tulsa, in a home we own. It's crazy. On Monday we start our new jobs. It still doesn't really feel real. I like it all so far, but it just doesn't seem like its anything different. Although I know it is.

What is also different is that a tornado hit Manhattan! No one in Manhattan was seriously injured and everyone know I know well enough to hear from is fine. Thank goodness. K-State's campus took over 20 million dollars in damage. Ace and Midas are gone and plenty of other buildings and homes are either damaged or gone. It's insane. In the 7 years I lived in Manhattan, we never had a tornado, or even anything worse than that ice storm last winter. And now, 2 days after I move away, a tornado hits. It crazy!

Chest Pains

Tomorrow I present my Masters report. I am so nervous. I think I'll be fine, but just knowing that I have to do it, makes me rather uneasy. Oh, I'll be glad when its over. To add to the fun of giving the biggest presentation in my life so far in just 15 hours, my major professor may not be there! She got a call from her sister yesterday saying that her father had chest pains and went to the emergency room. He live a few states away and when I talked to her she didn't know how serious it was. I still haven't heard anything, so hopefully it all is fine.

Trash Can


My littlest sister, Maria (who recently got a pretty tattoo) is trying out our new trash can. We used Jayme's car to take it home, as ours is too small (Thanks Jay). Also, the same day we bought a trash can, Mom helped us get an awesome fridge!

S'mores


Well, we own a house. We closed on Friday the 6th and had a lot of people there this past weekend. Me and Shannon, and Rhonda, Michelle, and Anthony, and Jenette and Chris were all there Friday night. Then Mom, Jayme, Maria, and Nicki joined us Saturday night! We all slept in our new house and it was awesome!

Above is the S'mores Michelle and Anthony ordered at Cosi for lunch-dessert.

Moving Day


You can't see him, but Shannon is driving that Budget truck. The weather is very, very windy and the truck keeps rocking. Its quite scary to watch from the back.
