Well I did, we did it, we finally met up with a younger couple and had a BBQ. A friend from College is about the same age as me and is married, her husband is in the same age range as Clayton. They've been married for about 3yrs actually a month after Clayton and I got married. I took the first move so to speak and invited them for a double date to the movies. In response, instead of movies how about a BBQ. Sure (gulp) it's so much harder for me to make friends with people my own age, I don't have much problem making friends with older people. But when it comes to my age group I kind of fall flat on my face. So Clayton and I went to the local park where they were having a BBQ, we had a great time and got to know some of their friends. Played some Volley Ball which I've never played in my life (and yes I have bruises up my arm to prove it)

I'm being nagged by my sister who wants me to post an update, so here you go sis and for anyone else who is interested. We got a kitten, about two weeks ago my friend said her friend had some kittens she was giving away, and did I want one. Clayton and I talked it over and thought it would be fun to have another cat, and would actually give Liza some company during the day. So we picked a girl and named her Coal-Dust, Clayton actually named her he thought she looked like she'd been in the coal bin. This is a picture of her with a load of Cobb webs on her, I don't know where she'd been but I swear my house isn't that dirty!!

Coal-Dust:- With her 2 marks on her chin and nose it looks like she's been in the coal bin.

A week ago I had my Induction Ceremony for the Phi Theta Kappa it was a bigger deal than I thought. When my name was called I had to walk on stage, they gave me a rose and a candle, and everyone had to light their candle. At the end we had to say the oath of the sororitie. I couldn't believe I didn't have a camera with me, it would have been so great to take a picture for everyone back home. Unfortunately I didn't know how big of a deal it was until the evening. Afterwards, Clayton took me out for dinner to celebrate my achievement.

College is going good, the quarter is nearly over June 13th is my last day. Then it's summer, even though I'm taking a summer class. I however won't be working at the museum during the summer as apparently work-study only goes through the school year. So I have been wondering weather I should find a job for 2 months or not work and have a break. Clayton is bringing in enough money but it's always nice to have a little more. I'm debating about it really half of me feels I should work the other half of me feels like I deserve a break.

Last Sunday I had Clayton's family over for breakfast, for Mother's Day. I haven't really hosted that much, so it was nice. It went really well, might do it again soon. Tomorrow we are all meeting to celebrate a double celebration of Clayton's Birthday (which was yesterday) and my achievement with my grades. We are going to the Olive Garden for dinner, I love that place.
