si, estoy aqui.

I'm still here. But just too busy to post anything of significance. Fun b-day party for Josiah last weekend, big fundraising dinner next weekend. Lots to do.

On a fun note, we found out our placement. :) You should contact me personally if you want to know...not sure I'll post it for the world to see.

green light, go!

We just got the green light to buy our one-way tiks to Colorado! (for training, then straight to China) Whoa, talk about reality check! Only 10.5 weeks left. AND we should find out what city we're going to any day now! Ahhh! Bout time!


Fortunately, Josiah will get a practice run on an airplane when we go to Hotlanta for an ahem reunion! He can't wait to see Aunts Erin, Holly, and Miranda and cuz Renae!! But he probably can wait on the loads of kisses he's going to endure. ;)


I think I might start going through stuff in the basement and start selling. Sure don't want to wait until July to do it all! Can't wait to have the apartment-wide sale. It will feel great to get rid of all of this!

bi-polar blogger

Yes, it keeps changing. I'm pretty sure I like how it looks now, but don't be surprised if it keeps changing. :) I don't really like to make drastic things about myself (clothes, hair color, etc.) so why not live vicariously through my blog? haha.

party planner

Less than 3 months til we depart. WHOA.

Less than 1 month that Josiah won't be my little baby anymore. Guess it's time to have another one! ;)

Speaking of Josiah, I'm planning a party for him. At first, Michael was highly against throwing our 1-year-old a birthday party. But then he remembered we're leaving the country and this may be one of the few birthdays he gets to celebrate with friends and fam for a while. (just so you know, I would've fought my way through it had he not agreed...with love, of course!) We're going to grill out at a park. Should be a blast. I'm also going to make him his own cake. I haven't given him many sugary foods up to this point, so why would I throw his body into overdrive by letting him eat as much sugar as he wants just because he's reaching a milestone? Not gonna have it. It'll be sweet..but made with fruit or something. I'll have to find a way to make some sort of icing, though. Maybe out of cool whip or something. Still want to see him smash it all over his face, of course!

We're also planning a benefit dinner (for ourselves..haha..ok, lots of other people are helping plan as well) for early June. Pretty excited about that one. Former KU b-ball player will speak, good food, and a silent auction. Still LOTS of planning to do, though!
