Party!

I'm going to be real honest. One of the best parts of this whole getting married thing is an excuse to celebrate aka PARTY. I have just loved the showers which for this blog sake I'm going to call parties. Finger foods are always yummy, smiles all around and presents. Seriously it makes my brain want to explode with happiness when I'm in those moments. This past weekend my camp friends and a few bridesmaids gave me a little last party to celebrate my last days as a Caulder. The party was at Magan's (bridesmaid) house where she kicked out her husband for the night and let us all have a slumber party. Plus she is pregnant so that was very brave of her to invite fifteen girls over! Oh my, let me just tell you, it was WONDERFUL to catch up with friends. In fact I turned my cell phone off and vowed not to go near a computer. I simply spent some quality time soaking in the beautiful people in my life. We played a few games, ate lots of food and I got some well ummm necessities for marriage. As any true slumber party is, we stayed up so late laughing, eating some more of course and being silly. I'm so thankful for the women in my life! I could have spent a whole week with them like that!

 Saturday we went out to lunch and I was picked to crack the egg. It was not a good experience. I didn't do so well and I got burned but no hard feelings, it was still fun.

Wish I could post all the pictures but those go in a vault. Only parties left to go are bridesmaids luncheon and the rehearsal dinner. I can't believe we are so close! Ah, the happy tears are flowing!

One Year Down, One to go.

Whoa, this is the first time I've beat out Sara for two posts in a row.

I finished my last exam today and turned in my final audio project so, hello sweet summertime! As fast as this year has flown by, I'll graduate in no time.

The audio documentary was no easy task. Because of the editing equipment needed to do any work we have to sign up for sessions in the audio labs (in which there are only 3). Well there's only 12 of us in Audio II and probably around 50 Audio I students who have dominated the available lab times for the last few weeks. Granted we've had all semester to work on our projects as Audio II students, my last month has been consumed by a 20 page research paper that I finished last week. To make a long story short, I fueled up on coffee and energy drinks and powered through some editing in the lab this morning from 3:30 - 9:00 in order to get the project in by the deadline. I left the lab this morning so delirious. Even worse I went straight home to study for my final exam at noon. Needless to say, I passed out for the remainder of the day. Sara called me around 9:30pm which finally woke me up. I've never been so disoriented. I thought I had slept through the night and it was now morning. I'll see if I can throw the doc up on the blog in the next week or so for those interested.

Now I can finally get in to wedding mode. Which is in 24 days, FYI. And in 25 days, Sara and I have this to look forward to...

Now I'm wide awake and it's almost 2 am. No good.

Until next time,
-Todd
