Midterms Are Behind Us...

Thank God! Overall, last week went well. All of our exams were relatively uneventful, we should get our results tomorrow! Last week was rather stressful! We have never studied so much in one week in our lives! Here is a picture of why our lives were so stressful this past week, this is our notes for two of the three classes we had exams over last week...
Fortunately/Unfortunatley we only had one casualty during the week and it was our coffee pot. Thursday night our glass coffee pot cracked! So, we had to make something work until we could get a new one in town on Friday afternoon. Here is what we came up with, I had to use toothpicks to hold open the tab so the coffee would flow out...

We found a new one at the hardware store on Friday. It is actually a much better coffee maker than the last one, our coffee tastes so much better!

We have had a much needed relaxing weekend! We watched the Vols play yesterday and are watching the Colts now. Also, I have cooked our meals this weekend (I don't get to cook much because we are always studying) and made brownies last night! We have been trying to rest up so we can start back to classes Monday. I was hoping we could go to the beach this weekend but the weather has been terrible the past couple weeks. We are in the rainy season but lately it has been worse than normal. It rains every day, most of the day, and when it is not raining it is cloudy. Last night it rained so hard and was so windy that it sounded like someone was spraying our windows with a water hose. We had to clean up standing water in the floor this morning.

And as promised a long time ago here are a few pictures from when Mom and Dad were here at the beginning of the semester...

Lastly, I have created a Shutterfly photo sharing site. This site is in correlation with this blog. It contains pictures from a variety of things! The site allows you to purchase copies of the pictures if you so choose. All of the pictures form Mom and Dad's trip to Grenada are posted on the site. You can find the link to the left listed as "Newlyweds Lost In Grenada Shutterfly Page", under the "Links" tab. Enjoy!
