Cruises, Costumes and soon to be Cursing...

So this is going to be a catch all blog since I have been horrible about updating my blog. My apologies....the semester is just flying by and dragging me keeping and screaming with it.

CRUISES....well we booked a 7 day Carribean cruise over a year ago and it's finally here. We leave out of Mobile on Saturday for 7 glories days on the high sea. We will be stopping in Grand Cayman, Jamaica and Cozumel. I am excited (and a little anxious) about vacationing with friends and co-workers but we are all desperately in need of a break. I shall tell of our adventures (at least those web approved) when we return.

COSTUMES...we recently had our annual homecoming hoedown and I went all out this year. Your's truly dressed as a cowgirl wtih cow printed chaps and all. The same costume will make an appearance at the Halloween party on our cruise. Since it's debut at hoedown I have added a cowgirl hat, a holster and pistol and a whip. More pictures to come.


And last but not least...CURSING...why is that you say? Because I have slacked on my workouts since I got back from Uganda. I came back with pnuemonia and after battling that for several weeks and the semester kicking off I find myself months removed from working out and I am feeling it. As soon as we get back from the cruise my grueling workouts will commence and I assure you there will be cursing (at least under my breath).

Happy Hump Day my friends!

Adventures...oh we had adventures

It has been an insanely busy few weeks with Mom's Weekend and then the Adventure Trip and then homecoming week and now I am getting ready to head out on a 7 day cruise. No rest for the weary and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I am way over due for a blog update so I thought I would share some pictures from our adventure trip. We camped out at Raccoon Mountain in Chattanooga, TN and went white water rafting on the Occoee River. We had a blast and didn't freeze too much. And sadly enough we ate better while camping then I usually eat when I am home. My dad and Scotty pulled their RV up to camp with us and did all the cooking. YUMMY!

Great trip...great students...fun memories...we shall do it again next year!
