Things as of late...

Obviously, life has been out of control busy with work and school, night shifts AND day shifts, intramurals and Chuck, and of course dinner making and DISHES!

Alex and I have had a pretty crazy semester so far. He has homework til midnight or 1 most nights of the weeks. Then add a 22-24 hour work week. He has very little time for anything else. But don't worry, we make time! Intramurals seems to be outlet, as well as dinners with CHUCK. We have a new obsessions with the TV show Chuck and we always, ALWAYS watch an episode while we eat dinner together :) before we off to more homework and studying. 

I, on the other hand, have a little more time that Alex this semester. Even with 15-18 hours working on campus,  12-24 hospital house (night shifts :)), class 8-5 on Thursdays, homework, projects, papers, etc. I thought I would be drowning but it turns out I still have time to make dinner...some nights.

Here is our life's/week's updates: 
- We paid off a third of my student loans!!!
- Alex is planning two weeks in China for a "Megastructures/Megacities" engineering class next spring!
- I have figured out a countdown: 58 days till I am a  OFFICIAL College Graduate! Woohoo!
- I have prospects as a Emergency Department nurse at Timpanogos Regional Hospital!!
- We have finished Chuch, Season 2. 
- We are (sadly) looking for a new home for our baby, Maizy. She will need to be leaving us soon. 
- We are dreaming of a sparkly, new apartment to move into next year (when the money starts rolling in!)
- BYU football on Saturday!
- AND, we're loving our married life :)

All is well with the Hawkins
