Thought I should take a moment away from the penguin talk to actually post about our lives. We've all been sick with the flu (yes, the real thing) since the middle of last week. First Robbie, then Isa, and then myself. We're slowly pulling out of the worst stages (fevers and chills), and now just have the aches, coughing and congestion. I've been taking every drug induced healthy moment work on homework, while Robbie and Isa have tried to soak in as much of the good weather before it goes away. Our move to the upstairs apartment is looking like it might go forward. We will unfortunately be moving right in the middle of finals, and there is little time between our moving out and the new folks moving in, so cleaning will be done a super speeds! We will need to juggle back the frigerators and such, but things will work out.
See everyone next weekend!

Very funny Mom, but you missed the entire point! Penguins tend to mate for life, and Wendell has not shown an interest in anyone else (penguin or non). So, for now Sadie, and all else, are out of luck.

I don't know Mom, I've shared the story about Wendell and Cass to many of my school friends who are now quite enamored. But then again, I'm an apparel major, and I'm finding that we seem to think about things differently then other people!

Happy Valentine's Day! I won't get to see much of my family today, as I have both a morning and an evening class, but Robbie slipped a card into my school work last night, so I'm feeling all warm and fuzzy today!
This was tax a FAFSA (financil aid) weekend for me. Our living room is still piled high with paperwork, but we are mostly finished. I'm going to let some friends at work use Turbo Tax, but if anyone in Eugene is interested as well, let me know!
The church we go to up here turns 100 years old today. Yesterday they had a "birthday" party, and it was fun to see some of the old pictures they brought out. It was amazing to see how few houses were around when the church was built. There were funny little stories as well, such as when one of the early families bought bells for the church tower so that they could be rung at their (numerous) daughters weddings!
Robbie then took Isa and two of the neighbor kids to the zoo in the afternoon while I did homework. We all tried to settle in early, with little success.
The week is promising to trudge along slowly as many of my midterms continue this week.

Robbie and I had a fun day Saterday cooking and then having friends over for dinner. We all stayed up to late (and probably had more wine then usual - which for me is about 2 glasses!). We actually slept until 11am on Sunday morning, which I don't think I've done since I was 16!
Mom brought Isa back safe and sound, and we spent the day snuggling, watching Peter Pan (many times), and doing homework (well, I did).
This is midterms week for me, and I'm not quite sure how we got here already. I'm very much looking forward to the end of this term, and to the beginning of summer.
We may be moving to the apartment above us in March or April. It's all very tentitive right now, but we'll let you all know!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DESTIN!!!
Well, I just got to the computer lab, only to find out that I didn't properly save my homework onto my disk! I'm desperatly hoping that Robbie can e-mail it to me before class is out. Argggg.
Other than that all is going well. Isa is excited about her trip to Eugene this weekend. When I told her about it yesterday she promptly said "I'm going to go pack!"
Back to Destin's birthday... It's funny to think how fast the time is going! I still clearly remember the note on my dorm room door that said "You're an Aunt!"
