Back to School

So Eric started school on the 17th. He is taking 18 credits this semester and going to compete in PLANET (a landscape competition in Kansas in March). He has a 5 credit Spanish class and is getting used to a Buenos dias in his morning text as we are trying to pick things up quickly. It is fun to work with him, but is going to take some work to keep up with him on this class as he has it every day. We did borrow some cds from my parents for a learning Spanish program and maybe I'll play with them to help. He is also talking history, English, math, CAD, and studio so keeping busy for sure, but really nice to not have him working as it gives him enough time to get all his work done and still some Eric-Stephanie time that doesn't necessarily revolve around homework. So far the semester is looking to be good.

The 16th was my birthday and we enjoyed the long 3-day weekend to chill and relax. We got a late Christmas / early birthday present of an xbox and have been having lots of fun. My parents sent us Rockband for my birthday which arrived a few days early. We have been Lego Rockbanding it out and have lots of fun jamming and have spent so much more time downstairs then ever before. It was like our computers upstairs got forgotten and there wasn't homework, so we just didn't have a pull to make it up the long walk of stairs that Eric told me he so thoroughly enjoys :).
