New addition to the family!

I adopted a baby kitten yesterday! Her name is Bellaluna, but I'm calling her Luna. She is black with yellow eyes, 3 months old, and I love her so much already! She is the sweetest thing, but can also be a little fiesty...and right now she's giving me the sweetest kisses!

My roommate Bethany adopted a kitten as well, a little orange boy named Louis. We are one big happy family!

Here are some pictures!

Of course, now that I have my baby it doesn't seem that life can get better, haha.

Just a small update while I'm here:

Anatomy is over!!! I am in a few regular science classes now, so at least for the rest of this semester, school will seem like a breeze.

And next week, Zack is coming to visit!! He is coming in on Thursday night and staying until Monday morning, so we will get to party together for Halloween and also we can watch our biggest football game of the year together, Georgia vs. Florida, to keep up our tradition of being there together the last two years.

Hope everyone is doing well!

Love,

Kim and Luna!

A Taste of Champaign

Well, I know that this post is long overdue, as I have been at U of I for close to two months now. I just wanted to give an update as to how things are going down here in Champaign.

First off, classes are going well. I just had most of my midterms this past week, so that was a little stressful. Right now, I am taking 5 classes: Introduction to Professional Responsibility (Intro to Business), Public Speaking, Calculus 2, Macroeconomics, and Computer Science. I would have to say that my favorite class is Macroeconomics. However, my Intro to Business class is also very interesting.

Outside of classes, I am trying to get involved in some student organizations on Campus, mostly business related. I am a member of Finance Club, and I am applying to be a member of an organization called the FIRM. The FIRM is an investment banking student group on campus. I also am applying to be a part of Illinois Business Consulting, which is a student run consulting group where students analyze real business problems in the community. Most of these organizations are very competitive though and require a series of interviews before acceptance into the organization.

In my free time, I like going to the ARC (Activities and Recreation Center). I usually play basketball, volleyball, or racquetball with my friends at the ARC.

Well, once again, I am sorry for the tardiness of this post. I hope everyone is doing well at home, and I look forward to seeing everyone soon!

Love, Daniel

Pink Ribbons 2009

Pink Ribbons 2009, our 15th year was a huge success! The fashion show was fabulous, the food divine, the silent auction outstanding, the jewelry for the raffle was beautiful, the speaker was inspiring. All in all a lovely afternoon, in which we hopefully raised a lot of money and awareness. I am so proud of my husband and everyone who contributed.

On another note all is well here after the flooding. It was quite scaring watching the river approach the house. Hopefully its another 100 years before we get rain like that again! Julie

Happy Birthday Lizzy!

Happy 15th Birthday Lizzy!!! We wish you all the best! Love, Mom
