Back to school, back to school, to prove to daddy that I'm not a fool

So,

In the past couple of days we have both gone back to school. Jess started her 7th semester at Baylor. She is definitely ready to be done with school, and I can't blame her. After taking summer school for three summers in a row, I am schooled out as well.

I start tomorrow evening at UTSA. I will be taking some classes in the graduate school there in order to become eligible to sit for the CPA exam in the spring. I'm hoping to take a couple of sections before I start working so that my life won't be completely consumed by the exam once we're in Dallas.

Jess has a demanding schedule between work and school. She's still working as an assistant to a local photographer in Waco. This past weekend Jess had a large portion of her mom's family in town for the graduation of her cousin from Air Force basic training. I hadn't seen many of them since Carolyn's wedding so it was good to reconnect. Jess came down to San Antonio with Mallory and Carolyn.

Mallory is a good sport about traveling, and we can't wait to move to Dallas to be the "cool" aunt and uncle!

I'll post a review of my classes after next week once I've had them all.

Long overdue update!

Greetings to all-

A lot has happened since our last blog post. I graduated from Baylor University with my degree in Accounting. It was the first ceremony of new Baylor president Ken Starr (yes, that KEN STARR). It was a great ceremony with much of my family attending.

I've moved out of my apartment in Waco and am now living back with the parents! Jess has finally settled into her new apartment.

As far as wedding plans go, we've picked a venue, found Jess a dress, picked a color scheme, and already looked at invitations and save-the-dates.

I start graduate school at UTSA this Monday, so I'll likely be unable to update much once school picks up. Jess has another year at Baylor before she's finished and then we're getting hitched and heading to Dallas!!!

No updates for Charley (sorry dog!) as he's still the same crazy little dog. He's well behaved he just has lots of energy.
