I'm so excited to be done with school for the semester. The complete and utter distaste I have for the IU school of Education is totally overwhelming! I've never been a part of something so ridiculous in all of my days. But I'm excited for student teaching to start in a couple of weeks. I'm finally going to get to start teaching... it's about time!
We put up our meager Christmas decorations the other day. We don't have much, since this is our first Christmas. There is no room in our apartment for a "regular" sized tree, so we bought a little fake one. It's not quite the same, but it helps me feel "Chirstmasy." Mom bought me the dancing and singing snowmen from Halmark. I wanted them when Wade and I were at the Hallmark store the other day, but he said no b/c they were the most ridiculous thing he had ever seen. Bah-humbug Wade! I recounted this story to Mom, and she got them for me. What a nice lady she is. (Yes, as an English person, I know I'm not supposed to end my sentence with "is"... but quite frankly, who cares?) Wade also hung some Christmas lights outside on our porch. They look quite festive. I'm not quite sure what he was mumbling under his breath while he was putting them up in the 25 degree weather, but I don't think it was "I love my wife and how she wants to decorate with lights to spread Christmas cheer to our neighbors."
I'm going Christmas shopping tomorrow for presents for the family... I asked Aaron what he wanted as a gift. He said he didn't know, and I told him "I don't know=socks." He's thinking it over. Men in your family are so hard to buy for... I never know what to get them. Women are so much easier to buy for... at least we know how to make suggestions and drop hints!
