Soooo apparently I only posted pictures and didn't blog about our Boston trip- crazy me. So we ended our semester really well- then invited the in laws down to visit us for the wkend after finals ended. So we hung out with Matt's mom and dad- they got to meet and play with the puppy and Barb and I went and got facials for the first time. We had a relaxing wkend together, and a nice way to unwind after a crazy semester.
The next wkend we boarded the pups and flew up to Boston as my girlfriend Kristy was graduating from veterinary school. We had plans to hang out in Boston for the day but apparently they were having a terrorist drill in Boston that day so we went and hung out in and around their house- they live by a lake so we were able to walk around that.
Sunday we had breakfast with her father and Jim's family then headed down to the graduation where a few funny commencement speeches were given- I was impressed that they were funny enough to keep us awake and even entertained slightly. Then we went to dinner with Kristys mom's family and then headed back toward the city to fly home. It was a nice weekend and we are both very happy and proud for her as she is now a Docta :)
June was busy so we didn't go anywhere Matt started Summer classes and I had to give a work presentation so we fervently worked hard but my presentation went well - I'm making decent progress on my projects for finishing up my first year. Matt got A's in both of his Summer semester I classes so yay! Lets keep that going!
So far in July we were able to sneak away and visit Matt's family and see Kristin and Missy whom he hadn't seen since Christmas time. So we spent and afternoon and evening with the family then on Monday we went up to my Grandmothers 4th of July picnic for a few hours and got to see some of my extended family. It was just a quick trip we weren't gone more then 48 hrs before we had to be back home for matt to start his summer II classes and for me to get back to work. I'm working fast and hard in the lab trying to get through some good research before my classes begin again in only 4 wks :'(
We probably will be out of touch for most of the fall semester as we both have very difficult semesters so we will be offline for the most part until we pass and survive those classes. Hopefully classes will get easier after next semester.
Also for Uncle George Matt wants you to know that he learned in his german class that geshbul means outsider, and is used primarily in southern Germany, Bulgaria- and that in that region they don not like foreigners at all.
In the next couple weeks we are trying to finish up everything before we dive into fall semester in August. A college friend is visiting, my parents are visiting and we are going to a wedding and I am helping with VBS it will be quite a busy month trying to live life.
Well I guess thats all for now!
