School has started at MSU

School started last week for Michigan State University, and that means that Colin has been super busy! He spent the entire week before the start of school at marching band rehearsals from eight in the morning until eleven at night, which left me at home being a housewife and dog mom! Luckily, I got a reprieve from being alone and was fortunate enough to be flown to Texas last weekend by the Hooper family so that I could go to Tabitha's baby shower in Pittsburg!! I had a wonderful time visiting with Tabitha and Josh and the Hooper's, even if it was just for a short weekend! Plus it was really nice to be in the great state of Texas for a few days! Now, school has started, and Colin is taking two classes plus helping to teach a conducting class, going to all of the ensemble rehearsals, and marching band, of course! We went to our first Spartan football game on Saturday. MSU played Montana State and totally stomped all over them, but we had field passes that allowed us to be on the sideline and super close to all of the action. It was a lot of fun and we are looking forward to more football games! Now, it is just back to the school routine for Colin while I am still praying for a job! Keep us in your prayers as we get ready for the first snow here in Michigan, which they say should happen in October. :)
