Going back to school has been a good experience for both of us. It is different when you're older and going back to school with people who are 5 years younger than you. It really makes you feel OLD. It's been a little difficult having my husband studying 24/7, but every once in a while I can get him to take a break long enough to have dinner with me. Daily, I continue to remind myself that this is only for 3 years.
Tom has been involved with intramural sports here lately--volleyball and soccer--and it has been fun to watch. I've gotten to meet a lot of his colleagues through this and he really does have a great group of people to be around these next 3 years. The first two pictures are of his intermural soccer team and in the second picture from left to right is Tom, Jen, Rachel, Chris, Kelly and Dave (I'm pretty impressed with myself right now for remembering their names. There are 40 classmates all together and i'm slowly learning everyone's name.) The last two pictures are from 3 on 3 Volleyball intermurals. Tom, Leah and Chris played together and they did very well. They ended up taking first place in the A league division, and won the 3 -3 tournament earning t-shirts that said volleyball champions on the back.
Those are a few things I wanted to share from our very hectic life. While it is hectic...we are also enjoying every bit of it. The Lord had us wait a while to get to this point and we are so thankful for His leading and guiding. Who knows...maybe 2 years ago we wouldn't of been so excited to be here. Anyone else having a pretty hectic life right now? or are there any other graduate school wives missing their husbands? Maybe we should start a club called the Graduate Student Wives club.
