- With final grades officially posted last night, and managing to scrape by with C's, P's, and A's, I'm DONE with school. Forever. Or until my future employer pays for me to get my master's degree. 126 credits and 9 semesters later, that expensive piece of paper is mine.
- Trevor took the Praxis II test this past Saturday. The Praxis measures knowledge of specific subjects that K–12 educators will teach, as well as general and subject-specific teaching skills and knowledge. In order for Trevie to be accepted into the education program here at SUU, he had to take this test. My husband is the WORST at studying for tests and procrastinating. December 6th - a whole week before the test - he started reading his Praxis II study book. I was nervous that he wasn't going to pass because this test is said to be hard and he had only a week of studying under his belt. Well, my handsome husband passed 3 of the 4 sections of the test: social studies, science, and math, the three hardest sections! The one section I thought he was going to pass, reading and language arts, he missed the passing point by a mere 4 points. I'm so proud of him! He'll retake the reading and language arts section in January before his application is due for the education program. Hooray for being one step closer to him becoming a teacher.
- The Copy Shop gals all got together one last time for a Christmas party on the 13th. We didn't realize that we were having our party on 12-13-14, either. Trecia {boss} made Cafe Rio pork for burritos/tacos/enchiladas, and we munched on sugary treats throughout the night. And, instead of opting for a traditional white elephant game, we did a sock exchange, an idea that we found on Pinterest. We passed the socks around in circle to "The Night Before Christmas", to the right or to the left. Working in the Copy Shop has been a dream job thanks to my boss and co-workers. I'm going to miss these gals.
- I completed our cute little neighbor gifts the other day, and we've started passing them off. I bought a pack of Redbox promo codes (1 free DVD rental on us) and paired it with a package of popcorn. Simple, cute, and cheap!
- Tuesday, Trevor and I were able to hang out with his cousin Colton and his girlfriend Tiffany. Colton is an airplane mechanic, and was interviewing for a job at Upper Limit Aviation, the new flight program here in Cedar City. We spent the day taking Tiffany around SUU's campus and enjoyed a evening of delicious food from the Pastry Pub and hot-tubbing. {Someday, we WILL own a hot-tub, and we will spend many hours in that thing.}
- Even though the weather might not be ready for the Christmas season, my nails are definitely feeling the holiday season.
I'm obsessed with this Keith Urban song, even though a) the lyrics are highly inappropriate, and b) the music video is really sexual. Ooops. #sinning
