Dry is the new warm

Wow, it's been way long since we updated. Many apologies to you all. There's so much to catch up on, where do I begin?

I (Bailey) finished my classes last week! I can't believe I'm done with classes already. It seems much too early for that. Granted, I am still far from done. I still have one essay and my dissertation left. But that's nothing big, right? Haha. I have until August 20th to turn in my dissertation, so life is still going to be hectic for me for another few months.

For those of you wondering about Matt's job, his position has been extended until the end of the school year, which is July 1! That's such a praise for us since there wasn't a guarantee of that. We have both been looking for employment for the summer, so if you think about it, pray that we both find good jobs. I also have a job, granted it's only a couple days a month. After my internship finished, the Gallery asked me to stay on with them and help set up the new exhibitions. It's really fun and I get to see lots of great artwork. It's not many hours at all, but it is really great gallery experience, so I can't complain.

I also came back to Indiana a couple weeks ago for a friend's wedding. It was a wonderful, albeit much too short, trip. The wedding was a lot of fun and seeing my family and friends was a great break from classes. I have pictures from the wedding on my new photography business page Bailey Marie Photography on facebook if anybody is interested.

Matt and I are definitely looking forward to our next visit to Indy in June! If any of you will be there then let us know and we'll meet up!

Ashley is coming to visit in exactly 13 days!! (not that I'm counting or anything!) We have grand plans to show her all around the best Edinburgh has to offer. We have been planning her visit for so long, and I can't wait for her to get here! I just hope that the weather warms up a bit before then. Last week wasn't too bad, but all of a sudden it's 33 degrees F. I'm convinced that Hell is 33 degrees, just warm enough to not snow, but cold enough to be miserable. Since it's usually wet here, and nobody really expects anything different, we have all lowered our expectations. Gone are the days of hoping for warm weather. Our new motto is: Dry is the new warm. Sad, I know, but true.

Other than that, life is pretty normal around here. Again, apologies for the lack of posts recently. I promise more updates soon!
