CRAZY week!!

Life in the Bangert house has been a tad busy these past 8-10 days!

Last Friday I worked late to get ready for the housing students to move onto campus on August 30th. Afterwards Kyle and I went out with Mindi and Preston to celebrate my birthday the next day. We went to Lomitas, one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Fort Dodge! It was a fun evening with them. The waiter found out we were celebrating my birthday and brought the sombrero to wear and they sang to me and I got free friend ice cream!

Saturday was my 25th birthday! Kyle worked in the morning and I did a little shopping. Then we had one of his employee’s weddings to go to in the afternoon. It was quite a small wedding so it didn’t last too long. We ended up going to Applebee's for some drinks and appetizers and then headed home thinking we were going to call it an early night, but ended up having a bonfire with Chad and some other friends! Ended up being a great birthday!

At the wedding…it was a little windy!

The yummy cake Kyle got for me!

Sunday was day 1 of a BUSY 6 day work week for me. On campus students checked in and then classes started on Tuesday. I did find out our preliminary numbers and they are predicting our enrollment will be up 9-11%. You have to understand that we are usually really happy if we have a 3% increase in enrollment. I guess it explains why my office has been completely swamped this past week.

Right now I'm glad to say the 3 day weekend is here and I probably won’t have to work another 80 hour week until next year at this time! Hope everyone enjoys their long weekend! We are headed to Iowa City for the first football game of the season!!
