Doin' good

I just found out that I got all A's my first semester in graduate school! Yey! I wasn't sure how well I'd do--I was sorta shooting for B's seeing that I'm in school and am working, but I did better than I expected. Yessssssssssssssssssssss.

Christmas was good too. Jeffy and I stayed in Iowa from Friday thru Wednesday which was an extravagent amount of time for us to be there, actually. It was awesome. I slept a whole lot, got some sewing projects in (Christmas presents), and spent great time with family and friends. One of the best parts was having my two year old niece, Kylie, around to play with. Also, we took the Dee-o-gies (DOGS)with us, which I thought would be a headache, but it turned out to be great. THey loved the snow and were very well behaved.

Oh yeah, and I stopped by one of my favorite stores in downtown Iowa City, Revival, and bumped into a lot of cool ETSY products I've seen from some of my favorite sellers--- "Tiny Meat" and "Mary Ink". It made me slightly depressed b/c a while back I was thinking about doing consignment with them and ended up not b/c of school--but it was nice to shop around and feel at home.

anyway, more updates later. Tonight the Swinks are coming over for a "Hoink" sleepover and then Friday night we're having Christmas with my family. The fun just never ends....
