I am currently writitng this blog from North Carolina in the RDU airport! I came up here this weekend to visit Derek and to furnish our apartment! Sorry for the delay in the blogging...it is a little hard to blog with no internet! Derek had his first full week of law school and he absolutely loves it! I can see why the state and campus is beautiful and there are many new opportunities here! We will have a lot of adventures in our future, which we are both very excited about! We were lucky enough to have Rose and Mitch watch our little guy, who is growing everyday. Watson has a lot of personality and is very spunky and energetic! He had his first vet visit, his vet loves him! She was showing him off and he of course just loved all the attention! He weighed in at 6 pounds and I was told he was a very healthly puppy, just what I like to hear!
A few weeks ago I got to celebrate Zack's 3rd birthday party as well! He got a lot of his favorite things including Spiderman and Toy Story items. We then had cake, ice cream, and pizza--all of Zack's favorite things. Here are a few pictures I got to capture.
Zack loves his cake!

Here he is opening some gifts
One of Zack's favorite gifts he received...a talking Spiderman!
I also got the pleasure of getting to go to David's first football game of the year, he played a lot and Borgia pulled off a win! The game was very exciting and I was so lucky to have gone! I can't believe he is already a Junior this year, if it has gone this fast being a sister...I can only imagine how fast time will go when we have our own children...yikes!
Here is Coach giving the boys a little chat and you can see David he is #60, he played in the nose guard position at this game.

After the game we went home and fed Watson--I guess he was really hungry whoops
As I stated in the beginning of the blog, I got to visit Derek this weekend. It was so nice to see him and made me realize how much I miss him, this long distance thing is very hard! Unfortuantly we did not get much sight seeing done since we had so much to do with our apartment. But, we did get to try a few of Winston-Salem's delicious resturants. I think I shopped Derek to death but it was all worth it to him because he got his toy a 40" Samsong flat screen tv. He sat in front of it all night like a little kid staring at the screen, it was pretty adorable. We also got to visit campus and Derek gave me a tour. The campus is beautiful! The buildings have an old Victorian feel to them, and campus even has a resturant on campus called Shorty's that offers beer and wine--I was pretty impressed! The campus is so much smaller and calmer than Mizzou's which was very interesting! But, it was neat to visit and I think I embrassed Derek by taking his picture in front of things, but hey this is his school...right?
Here are some pictures from the entrance..everything is very wooded and shaded
The chapel on campus and one of Derek's classrooms

The Law School
The seal outside the Law School (I can't find out how to flip it)
Here is Derek with the Deacon inside the Law School
I hope to be here soon with Derek and the puppy as well as in a furnished apartment. I had a lot of fun this weekend and can't wait to explore the state with Derek some more! I had a great time! Well I am going to keep waiting for my plane that has gotten delayed twice since 6:30 A.M., it has been a looooong day already and I still have to work tonight! I think a Starbucks trip is in order! I hope you all have a wonderful short week! I will try to post soon again with some wedding pictures, they are on the way! Much love!
