Busy with a chance of snow.

So for those of you that have never been to Rexburg, I want to explain to you what it is like. It is like living in a normal college town (no not really). It's more like living in the middle of nowhere in an obscure state with no professional sports team, and about 10 years ago they decided to make the LDS college into a four year university. So the school is growing and the town is not so much. Then in addition to that, we have our own eco system or atmosphere or something like that. While most of the country seems to be experiencing a heat wave of sorts, we go from 40 down to 2 in a matter of a day and from sunny to hail in the matter of minutes. It is really quite an experience, and I invite you to come visit and see what we are talking about.
So we are in the finishing stretch of this semester, it is kind of crazy how time is just flying by. It is also amazing to me how life seems to never quite calm down. There are moments where there is peace, but too quickly they are interrupted by the needs and demands of this world. As of right now there are so many demands in our lives with school and work and it will be go go go until the end. The crazy thing is we already registered for next semester classes! So I am really hoping the week break will give us a little bit of rejuvenation for our second to last semester! I am looking forward to this upcoming semester though, I am taking mostly sociology classes (which mostly sound made up. for example; drugs and society, terrorism and methods) and Jackson is diving more into his psych classes and some classes for his international studies minor. 
I think after these last two semesters for me and one for Jackson we have realized and learned how to balance things out more, or at least we are trying to do so. When you get married you don't realize how much work it takes to keep everything running, especially yourself because of new found responsibilities! I guess it is all just one huge learning process that will make us stronger in the long run, right?!

Well this is a brief update today, hence the fact we are so stinking busy. Hopefully next time there will be more to report! 

Until then... Thanks for reading and come back soon!
