So very, very behind!!!

So, it has been months since we last posted anything on our blog so I thought I would update you all on everything that has been going on in our crazy lives!!

Alaska was a blast, since the last pictures that were on here, we had Mac's parents, Tim and Sandra, and his Aunt Cindy, Uncle Dave, Callie and Brayden come up for a week. It was tons of fun and we caught lots of fish. However, this week was virtually what ended our blog posting. While we were fishing, starting at low tide, we forgot that the bag with our camera and some snacks were down the way on the beach (we had moved down cuz there were more fish jumpint). Anyway, Mac looks over and sees our bag and our wonderful camera on the brink of floating out to sea. So Sandra ran and grabbed it but unfortunately the camera was fried. So, until we get a new camera our blog will be without pictures. =-(

So, now we are back home in Montana and loving it! Accept for the fact that we don't see each other like we did in Alaska. We would seriously be with each other 24/7 in Alaska and now we don't see each other nearly as much as we would like, but such is life I guess. Going to school and working is a little crazy at times and Mac is still looking for a job. Its amazing how many applications you can put in and just because you put that you are unavailable to work on Sunday, they won't hire you! I think Mac has put in upwards of 20 applications and not one has even called him back. It kinda stinks cuz we're just living off our paycheck but thank goodness for blessings and our money stretching far beyond.

So, as far as school goes its pretty good. I'm going in to Elementary Education and only have 2 years left! Yeah!!!! And I get to apply to the school of education in February, wish me luck! Now Mac on the other hand was originally going into business. He and his buddy from high school Devin had several classes together and were loving it. Even if they didn't pay much attention. ;-) Anyways, just a couple months ago he decided that he wants to switch his major to secondary education and teach high school history and government! So, that was a shocker since he had never even really thought about teaching but I think he'll be really good at it. I actually think he would make a good college professor because then you can just teach and not have to worry about all the input of the students. But he wants to be done with school as soon as possible so thats out of the question, atleast for now. It will be nice though when we're both teaching because we'll have the same vacations, summers off, and we'll be home at the same time as the other and our kids!

Speaking of kids................=-) Just kidding. I want to have a baby SO bad but I also want to finish my degree, AND we're broke. Both of us really want one though. But we're holding out for a few years, atleast until I finish my degree. So, sad day for baby hungry me, but it will come around quick. I hope! =-)

Mac and I are as happy as ever and loving married life. We are especially looking forward to going back to Alaska this summer. Unfortunately without the road trip but it will still be great. Mel and Sharon, our bosses, are really good to us up there. And we get to fish all the time and basically have a second honeymoon!!

Anyways, I think we're all caught up now. I promise I'll try to do better at posting, I'll shoot for once a month rather than once every 5 months!!! ;-)
