Home Sweet Home!

First and foremost......I'm home!!! I made it back safely!! I had a good trip back to Minnesota on Friday afternoon. Just a little snow falling as we came home. We have 6-8" of snow in the UP already, so I thought I would bring you all back some :) I hope you all like it!

It was a high energy week with Thanksgiving on everyone's minds. I had some big papers and tests to take, but all went fairly well.

On Tuesday I received my acceptance to LeaderShape! I will attend that the first week in January before the beginning of the second semester. More about that soon!

On Wednesday I had my USG meeting as usual. We had some great discussions! I truly do enjoy being a part of the student government and working for the betterment of the school - It's pretty cool!

On Thursday I had a big field test in Field Techniques. I had to take a sample plot of trees in the forest....and in a blizzard! Ok, ok, maybe not a blizzard, but certainly heavy snow! It was pretty difficult to complete the test when it’s snowing wet, sloppy snow! But, when all was said and done, it was certainly a memory that will not be soon forgotten!

Since I've been home I have been so excited to see you all! On Saturday I got my haircut, renewed my drivers' license, and went to the bank...you know...all those important to do's while you're home! That afternoon I went to the Hill-Murray football game. HM played in the MN state tournament. Unfortunately they lost a tough one, 37-35 the final score.

Earlier today was the fall Pancake Breakfast at St. Jude. I enjoyed seeing everyone at church and from scouts. Then this afternoon was my friends' Nic and Kevin's Eagle Court of Honor, celebrating their achievement of Eagle Scout Rank. Congrats to both! I am glad I was able to be home for the ceremony and to be a part of it.

Well, I am looking forward to this whole week off and for
Thanksgiving! Hope you all have a great (and hopefully short) week!
