No, we are not pregnant! hehe I know you were thinking it!!
For the last four (long) years Brandon has worked really hard and is finally graduating with his BA!!! He has done very well and impressed more than a few people on a professional level.
So, I know I am lame but time slipped away from me and I did not get graduation announcements out - also, Brandon felt funny about sending them - doesn't want to be braggy and all, but I say he has worked hard for this and he has earned the right to brag!!!
So here is it is...

So, as many of you know, our plan was to apply for grad school this fall and then go, wherever we are going, next fall...but plans have changed a bit and we are taking a year off. So we will apply next fall and go the following year. (2011 - Ahh! Seems so far away!!) We have made it a matter of prayer, and for reasons as of yet unknown to us, we feel we need to wait.
Brandon has actually had some great opportunities for this upcoming semester, he has a Professor that has asked him to be her assistant on a project where he will be transcribing some old texts - his name will be in the book as Assistant Editor, another couple Professors have asked him to help edit and index the book they have been writing. So these are awesome opportunities that will not only give him great experience but also look good on his vitae - not to mention that he will love it!
He is a smarty pants and I love him to death!! Through it all he has made sure to keep our family first even if it meant making sacrifices elsewhere. Our kids are happy and secure in the knowledge that they have an awesome family and the best Daddy in the whole world!! And I am very certain that I have one of the best husbands in the entire universe!! I don't know why I was blessed with such a great man, despite all the odds, but I am eternally grateful and happy for the blessing he is to me... He adores me even when I don't deserve to be adored, he makes me feel like a queen, even when I am really a wicked witch, and he loves me unconditionally even when he should run screaming!
I am so proud of him for how hard he has worked for so long, and though I know we still have a long road to haul - I can't imagine doing it with anyone better and am happy to be by his side!!!
Good job Baby!!
