School Work

I have to say that I am very proud of my husband. He has been wanting to finish his high school diploma for quite a while and a couple of years ago he started an online course to complete it. Unfortulately he fell behind on it due to other obligations, but with the economy the way that it is, we felt that him getting his diploma took a very high priority!

It has cost us quite a bit of money for him to get his diploma, but it will be worth it in the end. We had thought that it was completely paid for and that all that he had to do was start doing his school work again, but we found out that we still had some to pay on it so with some of our tax return money we finished paying for it and last week we received the final 12 courses that he has to finish before he chooses his elective courses. The nice thing is this will be an actual high school diploma and not a GED. He will receive an actual diploma as well as a class ring when he is finished!

Since he received his 12 course books on Monday he has completed 5 courses which have approximately 4-5 exams per course. Once he completes all of the 12 courses then he will choose his 5 electives which are career based electives. He can choose courses like basic electrician, small engine repair, auto repair technician, small business management, home inspector, catering/gourmet cooking and others.

He has really been working hard at getting this done and is hoping to have it completed within the next couple of months. I am really proud of him and of how hard he is working. He works on his school work most of the day while Mason and I are at school and then he spends time with Mason when we get out of school and then he hits the books again after Mason goes to bed. He has been totally dedicated to getting this completed so that he can hopefully get a better job to help support us because it is looking like he might not have a job anytime soon.

That is an update on how things are going here. We hope that things are going well for everyone. We love you all!

Too Much Fun

Hey family, My sister told me about this and I am having too much fun with it. It is a website that will generate a font from your handwriting for free. http://www.yourfonts.com/ I even had Olea do it... Granted I couldn't make her do it on a template so we did it on scrap paper and I scanned and placed it on the template using Photoshop. Click on the image to see our results. I was too careful with mine so it's not all that great. I will probably do it again, just becasue I can. :)
