We're gonna run!! Can you believe it??
I am so pumped!! There is a NFP organization called Lungs for Life that is holding a fundraising walk on Sunday May 4 here in Fort Wayne. My friend Sarah, her mom Jacque, and I are going to walk in honor of my friend Julie. We found out at the last minute so we didn't have time to get a big team together or shirts made, but I have gotten over $200 in donations from friends and family already! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to those who have donated. The most exciting news is that Sarah and I are going to run the 5K race in Indianapolis on September 27!!!!! I really hate to run, but I am doing this because it is so near and dear to my heart!! Sarah and I are getting our training schedule ready and we will be ready to go for it next week!! We've got about 20 weeks to train, and my lazy ass is gonna need every minute of it!! I told Sarah that if we finised in like 30 mintues, I would be happy. That makes like a 10 minute mile, and as out of shape as I am, that makes me happy. Maybe we'll be so fit at the end of our 20 weeks of training, that we will be out for blood...out to win. Yeah, right. Let's not get crazy. So, wish us luck and pledge lots of money so this terrible disease (lung cancer) can be irradicated!!!

Pictures...Yea!!!!
Nothing too exciting here. Finally downloaded some new pictures from my camera, into our computer...okay some are not so new in that they were from Christmas. Enjoy. I can tell you that our child is a nut, but a sweet funny one.
I have my trip planned to see my friend Julie. I am leaving May 14th and I'll be back the 17th. It's gonna be a trip that is too short, but I am looking forward to it. She and her husband have lived in Arizona for 10 years, and I have never been out to see her. I guess it's always been too convenient that they come back to Indiana to see their family and I cash in on that. I have no excuses now that there is a direct flight from Fort Wayne to Mesa, where they live. And it's not ridiculously expensive!
I've only got two weeks of classes left---a busy two weeks though. I had a paper due last Tuesday, one next Tuesday, and a final exam the following Tuesday. I think it just might kill me...
I am on my final weeks of my reign over Isaac Knapp Dental Hygienists' Association! I am counting the days, and if I ever volunteer to be President again, someone shoot me!

Are we going to Disney World?
Geez, I decided to take a look at my blog and I realized that it has been a year since I posted and I only posted once anyway. I am such a slacker! However, in the last year I have also taken on the resposibility of Isaac Knapp Dental Hygienists' Association President, I am currently taking a class, I am teaching in the hygiene clinic at IPFW, and I'm a mom and a wife. So, I guess there's a reason that I haven't kept up....I don't have time. Actually, I should be studying and writing a paper now, but I'm procrastinating....like usual. Ashton is a ball of energy and keeps us guessing and on our toes. He is so sweet and loving---I love each day with him. He is now potty-trained and we have promised him a trip to Disney World. We watched the "Disney Vacation-Planning" DVD tonight and he wanted to know if we were going after dinner. The concept of time has no relevance on his life. We are going, but probably not until the end of summer. It's going to be a long summmer.....I can tell now!
