WonderFall

It's officially Fall here! We've been crazy on the go lately, and I haven't had time to update. Not to mention that my school computer won't log in to blogger because it has my @collins-maxwell e-mail programmed in. So I have to wait until I'm home to update and that doesn't really ever happen. So, since I have a few seconds to breathe, I figured I'd update everyone with what's been happening.

I finally finished the living room renovation. Josh hung up the shelf and I put the pictures in and wal-lah, it's done! So here are the before and after pictures.

After:
I LOVE the way it looks! I did the horizontal stripes all by myself too, so I'm pretty proud of that! Only thing left to do is get the new windows put in and then get some new faux wood blinds in there. It lets a lot more sun in on the south side too, and the puppies love basking in the sun in the afternoon. :)

We finally got the door for Josh's shed, but haven't put it on yet. I'll have to post a picture once we have that done.

School is in full force now, but this week will be the first real "full" week without craziness since school started. This past week was Homecoming and a lot of fun. CMB lost the Homecoming game against Nevada though so that's a bummer. But, it was Josh's 10 year anniversary since winning Homecoming king so we looked back on the memories! Haha..so funny!

Josh & Lindsay today!


My Master's classes are also going on as well. I have an online class that's actually a lot harder than I thought. It's Educational Research, and it's hard for me because I've never actually done a research class before in my life so it's a lot of learning for me. And the class is squished into a half semester so it is just going by really fast with back-to-back papers and assignments. My other class, Intro to Counseling, is every Thursday night and it's actually going really well. I really enjoy it, and I think this is going to be my "true" calling in life. It will be a busy two years, but so worth it in the end. I can't wait!

A couple of weeks ago our friends Lindsay and Colby had an ISU vs. Iowa game. ISU WON! So that was really exciting and Josh and I had on our ISU gear. :)
That kind of catches everyone up. We haven't done much lately, especially since I've started my MS classes and work is ramping up. Next weekend is the big craft show, and the weekend after that we're doing our second 5K, The Color Run! I'm excited for Halloween and then my favorite CHRISTMAS! Can't wait!
