This Week In Pictures

This week was a little bit weird since we had the Veteran's Day holiday. Instead of observing it on Monday the 10th, we of course were given Tuesday off which made us think that Tuesday was a Saturday and Wednesday was a Monday. Last year, Veteran's Day was on a Sunday so we got that Monday off, which happened to be Eric's birthday. This year, Eric's birthday was on Wednesday.

This quarter has been going by way too fast. We almost forgot that our birthdays were coming up. Normally we'd go home the weekend between our birthdays, but we couldn't, and due to some pressing family issues, no one could come and visit us. So, our delightful mother sent Chelsea a "surprise-party-in-a-box" for Eric. Chelsea skipped her afternoon class (English 302) and she and Eric hung out all day. We had a birthday party in Eric's room and went out for lunch. Since Eric got a Barnes and Noble gift card in the mail, twe also went down to the U Village, and he wasted no time spending most of it, although he did purchase a book to give to a foster kid for Christmas.

It was Eric's 21st, so we did have some lovely plastic champagne glasses. Don't worry though, we were just drinking water:










Chelsea had two tests this week, one in History 261 and one in Dance. Both were pretty easy, since she had studied and prepared for them ahead of time. Eric also had a Swedish quiz which he thinks went pretty well.

Last night, we went out to dinner with some friends of Chelsea's, which was pretty fun. We ate at one of the many thai places on the Ave, although we'd never actually eaten there before.

I guess that's about it, nothing too exciting going around here...Chelsea's birthday is on Tuesday, so maybe something super fun will happen for that, but we're not promising anything. Today is our cousin Andrea's birthday, so Happy Birthday Andrea!
