some people like to go away for the weekend... (name that movie...hint marshmallows on a stick)

we are going to run away for the weekend
we have senioritis
but are excited about grad school prospects
so we are checking out Arizona State University
they seem to have a good masters program there
and we will get to attend a presentation of research projects on friday morning
we can't wait to see aunt nettie and family and rachel too

can i just say thank goodness for lower gas prices
i think we'll save like $60 in gas this trip
so hallelujah!
I guess that is one perk of the economy taking a nose dive
but then again that is a large reason we are thinking seriously about grad school
we'll wait it out through the crappy economy and be better qualified
when it is on it's upswing
currently the options are arizona, north carolina, michigan, illinois...
i think those are the main state schools
brandon says ohio state is not an option
apparently michigan and ohio are huge rivals
kinda hilarious

hazel and i had a doctors appointment yesterday
it was relatively uneventful, but uneventful is a good thing
they basically said my blood pressure is good, her heartbeat is good, and my belly is measuring right on track for 33 weeks
i should take a new picture of my belly
oh! and she has hiccups which is supposed to be a good sign of healthy lungs

i can't wait for thanksgiving!!
good food and family
loves,
lorie
