Update on Jim...
For Jim's 25th birthday (4.8.11) we went shooting, me for the first time, him for his second. :-) It was pretty cool though! (*this is pathetic, but I'll have to ask him what he wants me to put about it.)haha!
He discovered he is married to an adrenalin junkie....(explanation later)
Jim made it through his summer semester of school which took a lot out of him. Although he loved the class, he didn't get his summer break so now it is a bit harder to want to go to school now...BUT he is doing great in my opinion!! He is taking way more credits this semester than previously so it'll be hard but completely worth it. He had to go all year round so he can graduate a year earlier! (2013 feels so close I can taste it!!!!) Summer of 2012 (aka: this summer!) he will have to do an internship (any leads...feel free to let us know.) His work suggested that motorola would probably be good and because his experience in the Radio shop, he has a good chance. Then his capstone, which is a year long project...Fall then Winter semesters, then he is DONE!! We are all way excited!! Also as a plus...although he is taking alot of credits this semester, (he'll be gone from 8am to 6/8pm Monday through Thursday) he has made sure that he has Fridays off work and school so he'll have 3 day weekends ALL semester!! :-) I realize that with 13 credits of Engineering courses he won't necessarily be focused on me all Friday, but still!! It is easier to make it through only 4 days of classes for me! :-)
Jim said that to celebrate his graduation he wants to take a cruise! :-) (Considering our lack of a honeymoon...I completely think this is doable!! We will get 2 more tax returns before he graduates so pretty much all of it is going into savings for the cruise. Jim is leaning towards an Alaskan cruise so that we don't get bombarded by the poor people begging for money at the ports on Mexican and Caribbean cruises...I on the other hand don't really want to be cold on a cruise....but time away is time away! We'll drop off Ange with Ninny and Grandpa Richard and head off! Flying first class has come up a couple of times...(because I would like to fly First class at least once in my lifetime! and as more kids come...the odds of that happening will get less and less!) for now we are just toying with the idea...
(IF ANY OF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DONATE MONEY TO THE JIM'S GRADUATION CRUISE FOUNDATION, FEEL FREE!! :-D)
*Sorry if it seems like it isn't much of an update...lol but he doesn't do much on his own...haha
