We survived!

After the craziness of last week, we are still alive. We ended the week by going to the Brewers game with Kyle's work. I experienced the KidZone for the first time and we took some pictures. Kyle took his test on Wednesday and it went okay. We will find out if he passed in a month. My interview at Elkhorn went really well. I would love to work in their school district. I will find out by next week Friday if I got the job. Thanks for all the prayers!

Big Week...

We have a very big week ahead of us. Kyle is taking his first section of the CPA exam on Wednesday and I have my first teaching interview on Friday. Among these important things we have to be moved out of our apartment by Friday. It will be a hectic, exciting week! I can't wait to see what God has in store for us.

Happy Graduation!

We graduated today! It was a great day. We had some of our favorite people with us and we completed another milestone in our life. Graduation started at 10 and finished around 1. We went out to lunch at Famous Dave's for some good ole barbecue. We had planned to go to Olive Garden but there was an hour wait...my family does not like to wait. It was a joyous day. We were very happy to get some time with Eric and Carol. They are a hoot and we always have a blast with them. After going back to our apartment to pack a few things we jumped in the van to go to Cedar Grove. My mom had ordered a cake just like our wedding cake, chocolate with raspberry filling and butter cream frosting. YUM! Tomorrow the celebration continues...We will be going to Kyle's season opener for Saukville Saints and having a Dieringer family party for Naomi, Kyle and my graduation! I hope I will remember to take pictures! Thanks to all who made this graduation very special for us. We appreciate you and all you have done for us.

WOW!

WOW, Kyle has officially completed his master's degree. Tonight he took his last test! WOO HOO It was a cool moment realizing that he is done with school FOREVER, not counting professional development through work. When he came home I asked him if he was going to get his doctorate in accounting. He said NO! :) I am super proud of him and amazed at the work ethic he has to complete both his bachelors and masters in 5 years. Now I need to decide what to get my masters in and then we can both be done, in a bunch of years and a few babies later. HAHA!

We graduate on Saturday! I will post pictures of the big day when I get a chance.

Only 25 more days at Clinton Elementary School...it has been a crazy and amazing experience.

First Run...

Kyle and I went on our first outdoor run as a married couple today! :) I decided to document the occasion! It was fun...kind of. The progression of my feelings went from excited to do this, thinking it would not be a problem, to hating Kyle for talking to me during such pain, to happiness at how good my body felt. I have not went on an outdoor run for a long time because of the handy elliptical that the University has. I could easily go for 30 minutes on the elliptical and was about to die going on a run outdoors. But I felt the pounds melting off! (I wish!)

17 DAYS til Graduation! :)

Little House in the Big Woods

My class is doing a unit on Little House in the Big Woods. We made a classroom quilt and I brought in my quilts from my Gramma to show the class. They really got into making it and did an exceptional job. Not only was it a fun project but a great lesson in measurement, geometry, and learning more about the pioneer lifestyle. I love it when it all comes together! :)

(5 students are missing from the class picture)

He Passed...

Kyle passed the MPA exam! WOOHOO That means he will graduate with his Masters in Professional Accountancy(I think that would be how you say it) on May 16th. Next step is taking the four parts of the CPA exam and THEN he will be done with all this testing! Well, as far as I know. :) We were excited that he passed...thanks for those prayers!

One month from today we will be graduated! EXCITING!
