And it isn't going as planned....but then I remembered...when does it go as planned? After spending 2 days driving back and forth to UT Tyler...I finally got registered for Fall 2008. I picked my major as Criminal Justice and my minor is Spanish. Since most people choose sociology (which I love) or psychology...I decided to do something different and my advisor was VERY excited that I did. Anyway. I only was able to get into ONE class! That stinks! I am used to taking 4-5 at any given time, but I guess this will help me adjust and get into the swing of a new school. Who knows.....
Well, Clint and I are moving our church letter to my old church...Hainesville Baptist Church. We are so excited and really love the preacher. We have been welcomed with open arms...unlike the last church where you MIGHT get a wave from a familiar face. Everyone is so happy to have us. We have already build several relationships with the preacher, young adult teacher, and a couple other members. I can't wait. It is so funny because Jagger isn't too keen (for some reason) on joining the youth so he sits in the congregation with us. The elderly ladies are like "But they have punch and cookies"....I remember that punch and cookies from when I was little but they were home made then, so there might not be much to miss now because the ladies that made them are either dead or bed ridden. We are not a very closed couple. That means, Clint and I will tell you of our not so great moments and laugh about them later. Most would sweep it under the rug or try to not talk about it but not us...we don't hid anything. We have been going to Hainesville for a few weeks and the preacher is already repeating our stories in good humor, but of course not telling the congregation who it is. I guess there isn't any better form of flattery, but it is still funny because it catches us off guard, and then we are like "Wait! He got that from us!"

I am starting to dislike weekends...
because I am so tired on Mondays! Friday night started with us rushing to Tyler to attend my graduation from TJC. I was excited, but not really because it isn't like I am done. I still have two more degrees to get before I would even consider being done...my bachelors and my masters. I did it for my parents though. We went to eat at Fat Catz and itwas awesome! The service was slow and forgetful, but oh well...I was there with my family. Mom, dad, Jagger, Clint, Clint's mom and stepdad and his grandmother "Maw". She is a hoot. She wanted to ditch the family and go to the bar next door. Oh Maw-sie.....what would I do without you?! This is the grandmother that gets the law called on her for shooting squirrels out of her trees with a .22......so you might say? She lives in the city limits. She is a heck of a shot though. So Friday night we get home and I was so tired, I couldn't sleep but Willis and I stayed up til about 2 a.m. and woke up around 6 for our morning potty break. I was really tired because I had fallen asleep on the couch and Willis had pushed me off.
Saturday we spent too much at Walmart as always, but relaxed the rest of the day. We decided to go see our new nephew and visit my father in law and his wife. Cooper (nephew) is so adorable and tiny! He is 6 lbs and Bailee his sister is so excited. He slept the whole time but I didn't care. Clint wouldn't even get close to him...he says the little ones make him nervous.
Yesterday, Clint, Jagger and I went to church. I really like Hainesville Baptist Church. They will break their neck to make you feel welcome and invite you places. Hubbard Chapel wasn't like that....you walk in and you might get a wave from someone you know. Bro. Terry will hold up the line to talk to you for a while. He is excited he will be our neighbor soon because he rides 4-wheelers and was estatic to hear we had dirtbikes. We thought we were selling but since EVERYONE and their momma are selling out because of gas, we decided to keep them. I mean they are paid for and we wont get much for them because of the market right now. It was so funny when people would ask Jagger his name because he would nod his head as he said "Jagger Wright". He even got compliments for looking people in the eye when he spoke to them. You could tell he was trying to be clear when saying his name because it was all elderly people that were asking him. lol.
Last night we won our softball game 18-4. I was skeptical about our team at first, but we possibly could be the team to beat. We have won both scrimmages and the season officially starts in September. I loathe going but when I get there my attitude changes. Of course, I pulled a muscle and dove for a ball that I should have had, but the other team figured out that they dont want to hit it to me. lol. Clint plays first and I am in the outfield. I love the outfield, but I can't throw as far as I used to since my shoulder surgery and I babied it for so many years. I just wish I could play this weekend in a tournament they are having for Cents 4 Sophie. But I have a baby shower I am throwing for Clints cousin. Well, that is all for now.
