Thought I'd do a little sharing

Posted Tuesday, December 6, 2011, at 11:18 PM

Howdy Mountain Home!

My family's home finally sold and is in the process of closing! They've been trying to sell it since they moved to Japan and it is a huge burden off our shoulders!

OU is doing well...getting hit by some nasty weather and I'm thankful I am well stocked on winter supplies and driving-in-inclement-weather skills from Idaho. I think I'm the only owner of an ice scraper on campus. :p

Semester is over next week, then I'm off to Arkansas to see the boyfriend before going to my first foreign country- Japan! I will have my camera ready to go to share the adventure.

Or to take pictures of my miniature dachshunds. Gosh I miss them!!

I was initiated into Alpha Phi Omega right before Thanksgiving. It's been an incredible time as a pledge, and I'm excited to see what next semester brings with my new brothers!

All my butt-kissing and hogging of sports photo assignments paid off last week, and I was asked to shoot the Oklahoma v Oklahoma State football game! It was extremely exciting. Would have been moreso if the Sooners had decided to play football of course. But that's life.

I wish you all the very best over the holiday season and hope you have safe travels if you leave!!

    Thanks for the update... I love hearing from you! How exciting to be able to cover that game! There is more of that I'm sure.

    KH, Melodie IS a special young lady. She has blogged here and commented on some pretty hot topics. She took a lot of criticism that wasn't done in as ladylike a manner as she recieved it.

    She did alot of growing up, right here on the blogs in front of us.

    Way to go!

  • Melodie I'm darn happy to hear from you. Sounds like you are having the time of your life. Are you going to stay in Japan or is it a visit?

    I hope you miss Mountain Home just a little bit lol!

    Sure wish we could get our house sold (rental) it would be a weight off our shoulders too! It was suppose to be an investment, but instead it turned into a nightmare...

    Have you been watching the Broncos? :)

    Take care young lady and stay safe!

  • It's just a visit unfortunately, and a brief one at that. Thank you all for the compliments :)

    I haven't unfortunately. I'm generally really busy with work- the only football I catch is OU football because it's hard to miss here! I do pay attention to where they're at in the polls though.

  • I'm sure you have been extremely busy.

    Have a safe trip to Japan and take lots of pictures :)

    Enjoy your time with your family ((HUGS))
