Dear Research Paper,

I am very sorry that I have neglected you throughout the semester. Really I am. However, you are due tomorrow and I am tired. So, as I sleep and dream of sno cones and giraffes, please write yourself--you need to expand at least another 11 pages, please and thank you.

I look forward to reading you when I wake up in a few hours.
Much love,


P.S. If you so desire, you may also write several pages (or 12-15) on the paper that is due Tuesday. :)

A bit of catching up to do:

Much has happened since the Top 10 Reasons to go to the Easter Festival, so here I am to quickly summarize the last week or so in bullets:

• Easter Festival was AWESOME! (We served about 2,000 people!)
• Easter Services were great...Audie and I bought the same shirt and wore them with white capris so that we would be matching...and we told Jenny to wear a similar outfit....
• 

Aren't we just the cutest? :)

• I had a fun Easter afternoon with the Aunt Maggie & Cousins Megan, Tori, and Amanda--we ate & dyed eggs (my first time!!) and watched both Hairspray and Blind Side

This one was my favorite color...
BUT... this one was my favorite...

...because in case you didn't know: "I freakin' love giraffes!"

• Not much has happened since then aside from regular school work & papers being due. (OH, that reminds me!! I got my counseling paper back --I wrote on counseling children of divorces-- and my prof gave me a couple of suggestions for improvement and then asked if once I corrected if he could have a copy to hand out to his patients because the content was so good!!!! I got an 87 on it too--my Turabian citations weren't that great.).
• I had sno cones with my prof's wife Sara last Thursday. Might I say that I just love sno cones? I just love sno cones. Yummm. Made me really miss my sno cone buddy, Kendi, but I was excited to spend time with Sara discussing fun activities for SCS students!!
• AND, the best news of all............................................

I'm officially a SENIOR!!!!!!! only 19 more hours until I graduate!!!!
