more of my graduation....the juicy stuff :)
Well... I am finally a college graduate! I graduated with my Associates of Science in Speech Communications. With a lot of support, encouragement and prayers from my friends and family, I was able to complete it. I appreciated everyone who traveled or took time out of their busy schedules to come and celebrate with us!
Now I am working part time at A Woman's Friend Pregnancy Center and Medical Clinic as assistant to the Director of Development... which means I help plan all the events and fundraisers that raise the money for our treatment and care since we are a non-profit organization. We give free medical care, counesling, services, and products to pregnant women, as well as women and men who want an abortion or have had an abortion in the past. I absolutely love my job! It is such a postivive, encouraging environment...esp compared to retail and waitressing....
Patrick is still in school untill October 31 when he will begin the hospital stage of his education. He is also working full time as an EMT at Bi-County... so right now we are wanting to focus on his schooling and job. We are in the process of buying a house...so hopefully we will be in it by July! I will try to keep you all posted on it...hopefully have some pic up eventually! :)
Hopefully, now I will be able to keep this more up to date! :)

pics of our first christmas
07...08
wow...it has been soo busy! patrick and i moved to a bigger apartment, got a puppy (sasha) and are both finishing up school. i on ly have one more semester!! and patrick starts back up in march and should be done with the schooling part october/november...
we had a great christmas...our first christmas together!! we were extremely blessed in multiple ways...we celebrated with patrick's family before we all left...they went down to la and we went up to oregon... while we were in oregon, we had a white christmas!! it snowed on christmas day...not covering the ground...but at least it snowed!! thankfully we didn't have to deal with chains on our way home (like last year...an 8 - 9 hour drive took about 12-13 hours.....ugh!)
new years unfortunately we both had to work... my stories arent near as crazy as patricks...you can check out his myspace at http://www.myspace.com/baseballlife4 if you want to hear more! he had to work over night, and thankfully i just had to work during the day on new years eve and day.
we are both ready to start this new year...hopefully healthier than last year...and hopefully not as much will be going on either!! stay tuned...i will try to keep this updated more than i did! :)
smiles and love...
