Got to support!

More majestic than one would originally think (complete with moose)

These are pictures of our Christmas shrub. We are so grateful for all of the gifts and support we have received this year.  As poor newly-weds, one of us still in school, we feel so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends. We are hoping to Skype with everyone on Christmas Day, so look forward to that event.

Love,  Bryan and Cassandra

Married!

We are officially Mr and Mrs Bryan Ott.

Both of us are so very grateful for all of the help and support from our amazing families and friends. Thank you!

Now wish Bryan some luck on his interview tomorrow! No breaks for us :)

No longer sick!

Thankfully the sickness has left this home. Yay!

Wedding in ~12days

Grad School

I had a discussion this morning with my advisor about my class schedule and my project. He tells me that I should shoot for graduating in December 2012. Which sounds awesome to me! This means that I will be busy with my project for the next 13 months, but then I can be done early. As to what I am going to do after that, I don't know. It will be nice to move to wherever Bryan is though.

Speaking of Bryan, we are getting married in less than 3 weeks! We are both getting pretty excited. It will be wonderful to see our family and friends and celebrate love and the rest of our lives.

Sick

From Cassandra: I think I am officially sick today. It has taken me the whole day to be sure. Feeling like I had been hit by a truck has been pretty constant. Sore throat, and sore ears. But now the fever has set in. No denying being sick any longer. Off today for some rest and enjoying some throat lozenges that Bryan picked up for me this morning.

Bryan just left on a chilly November bike ride. As soon as he is out of site down the driveway, I notice some light drizzle hitting the pavement. Hopefully Bryan doesn't get sick now.

Hard Cider

Bryan's hard cider experiment turned out excellently. More like apple wine than apple cider. It sure makes these cold Michigan evenings more enjoyable.

Just for the record Cariboulope is still a VERY woody word.
