So..... we are slacking here. Sorry for the lack of updates, but hopefully this one will make up for that!
Fall has officially arrived in Ann Arbor! Both of us have survived our first round of exams and passed with flying colors, but knock on wood because more are right around the corner. We've been enjoying the football games and are legit UM students after we threw our first tailgate. It's hard to believe it was over 70 degrees outside a few short weeks ago. Now we grab our coats and gloves before heading to school in the morning.
This past weekend we were excited to have Dan's G-pa visit us for our lengthy weekend. He and Dan were able to watch the Wolverines put up a fight against Iowa in our homecoming game. Grandpa had a great time seeing the stadium and campus and the changing leaves of autumn.
We also celebrated Dan's 23rd birthday on Monday/Tuesday and enjoyed a DELICIOUS cake made by Gail! Dan even got some Hot Wheel cars and track from his parents to re-live his childhood play time. We also took time on our walk home from work that day to shoot some pictures in the park next to our apartments.
While school has been tough we are excited to celebrate the end of the semester in December with an extended layover in SoCal with Dan's family and a day in our favorite place.... DISNEYLAND!!! It will be Gail's first time in the parks during Christmas time. They always theme the Haunted Mansion and It's a Small World as well as the castle and Main Street with a great winter theme! We can't wait!
