I think it's about time we did some updating...

I first made this blog for a school assignment, and after realizing its power in keeping in touch with people, I decided to keep it. However, after that decision, I haven't used it since. A little bit anticlimactic, no? Well anyway, here are some updates:

1. Josh and I are still in school. I'll be done next April and Josh will be done...um...at a future date...
2. We live in Utah and are enjoying life in the bubble right now, bur we can't wait to move on to the next part of our lives.
3. No babies yet...We're going to have one next year after I finish school. YAYAYYA!!! I've moved on from baby hungry to baby ravenous.
4. We've been married for two years now and we love love love it. Nothing beats getting to hang out with your best friend all the time...Well, when we're not at school or work.

I think that's about it.

The trash can won

Today was a little anticlimactic. We learned about GPS stuff and it was all fine. I don't have any questions, but I wish the GPS unit had found some more satellites.

In the next two weeks the hardest thing I have to do is complete a calculus final without killing myself. here's hoping!

Gobble Gobble

Today was nice and short, and very informative. I don't have any questions about it. I'm working on my map, and it's turning out really well.

My favorite website - Reuters.com - good news and really cool pictures.

WHOA!!

Today was tedious but awesome. I understood everything, and I am extremely thankful that we have an instruction sheet. I don't have any questions.

My husband and I will be spending Thanksgiving with his Mission President in Sandy. We don't have any family close, and we can't afford to go home, so Sandy it is.

gah!

Today was a LOT of info, but I think I understood it well. I'm still having some trouble georeferencing, but I'm getting better at it.

I start listening to Christmas music the day after Thanksgiving.

GIS how I love thee

well, this is technically from yesterday...
Today we learned how to place different kinds of maps on top of each other, and it was pretty cool. I learned how to take out colors, which was cool too. Although my mylar did not want to correlate to my other maps with the control point tool, and I'm a little confused by that.

A good book I've read lately is the Great Divorce by C.S. Lewis.

i was tiffed when i learned about ArcMap

Today was so cool! I am really excited to learn about using ArcGis, and this was pretty awesome. I was glad to learn that we could download maps from the internet. The program is not really intuitive, but I don't have any questions right now.

Our favorite place to eat out is Cafe Rio. Although I just learned yesterday that one of their salads has enough calories to feed you for three days. hm.
