life in co

i can't remember if i mentioned this the other day, but, for now, i can only update on the days i visit the school (or somewhere else with wireless internet). very soon, though, we should have internet set up at our place. anywho...
the past few days have been filled with us trying to adjust and get settled into our new home, town, school, etc. we looked for jobs yesterday, but didn't get too far. i've found a great lead that i'm really kind of holding out for now.. i don't want to apply anywhere else until i hear something from this place because i don't want to risk missing out! this job really seems PERFECT for me... i'll tell more if i actually get it. =) we checked out a few other places, though, for ryan and i (just in case), but for the most part, they said we had to apply online and then go meet with them in the store. so, we are going to work on that today (while we are at the school with internet!).

last night, joy and jamie (some friends that went to sebc with us) invited us to go with them to a cookout at the school. we got to meet a lot of people and eat some yummy hot dogs (thanks guys!). living off campus has it's advantages and disadvantages..and one of the major disadvantages is that we aren't as connected. part of me has been regretting our decision to live off campus for this reason, but i think it will be fine in the long run. it would be really nice right now since we know so few people to have that easy connection...but oh well! =) we had a great time hanging out all the same!!

randomly enough, we have bunny rabbits EVERYWHERE around our house. this is a terrible picture, but that little gray thing is a rabbit!

here are some pics of our first meal together in our new home:


it was the first time in a LONG time that everything we had was homemade (by us). we even used our china...and had sparkling pink lemonade in our pretty goblets! it was delightful!! =)

well, i suppose that's all for now.. if you are reading this, we probably miss you! =) ryan and i have spent some quality time crying our eyes out together the past few days... it's not been easy, but it's good all the same.

We love you both very much and how wonderful it is that you are already making memories! As tough as it may seem, these will be the fun times you remember. I love seeing that you two are celebrating your new home and each other. We are so excited for you and if you can catch that rabbit and get some fur, we'll spin some yarn one day Samantha! Love, Carol and Glenn
