We're growing up

First off, I would like to apologize. The background of the blog has been winter themed until several minutes ago. I fear that all of this snow and cold weather is due to my blog background so I have changed it to something spring-y, therefore warm weather should be coming soon (as I sit here writing this, it is snowing.. booooo!)
Now that I only have 8 weeks (eek!!) until graduation, I have begun the job search. I had an interview last week that I should find out about later this week and I'm in the process of setting up several more interviews. It's scary going out and getting a real job in a profession I will be doing the rest of my life!
Aaron's also been looking into internships for over the summer. We'd really like something that's paid and will lead to a job offer after he graduates in December.
We've also started looking into buying a house. Our lease is up at the end of July and I desperately want to be moving into a house we OWN and not into something rented. We've been looking at houses online and next weekend will be going with my aunt, who is a realtor, to look at houses. Since neither of us have any real income right now we can't buy anything but it'll be good to see what we like and what we don't like. Hopefully I'll have a job contract on paper soon so we can start looking into getting a loan!

Snow Storm

After two days straight of snow, the weather is finally letting up!
We woke up Tuesday morning to a ton of snow and no school for me. Aaron's night class was canceled due to snow. Tuesday night I found out we would already have a two-hour delay this morning and when I woke up I discovered school was closed again!
But now I'm starting to go a little stir crazy after being indoors for pretty much the past 48 hours.
Zoe's enjoying all the time I'm at home because this way she doesn't have to be locked up in her crate. We take her to a nearby field so she can run and she is loving all of this snow. It comes up to her chest so she can't really run very well, she just hops around. It's super cute!
Hope everyone else is staying warm!! Looks like I'm actually going to have to go back to school tomorrow...

On a side note, the opening ceremony for the Olympics is Friday. I love watching the Olympics! :-)
