Changes to our Backyard

We have renovated some of our backyard recently. It has been great to have some grass. We added about 520 square feet of sod and added pavers between the grass and the rocks. The boys are loving it. They have spent more time outside in the backyard in the last 2 weeks then the whole time we have lived here. At some point we will be adding a fire pit.

Mark's Higher Education

Well I am writing this a little bit late and most of you have already heard the news. I have finally graduated with my undergraduate degree in Bachelor of Science in Business Administration/E-Business. I received my degree from the University of Phoenix. It was some time coming and many schools later. For a good laugh I have decided to list the higher education institutions that I have credits with. This list is starting from the beginning.
  • Triton Community College
  • Northern Illinois University
  • College of Lake County
  • University of Arizona
  • Pima Community College (Not sure if I finished the class :))
  • Rio Salado Community College
  • Glendale Community College
  • University of Phoenix
Wow that is a lot of schools. Anyway it took a while but it is done. I have started my Master's program at (you guessed it a different school) Western International University. The program I am enrolled in is the Master's of Business Administration in Information Technology. Let's just hope it does not take me 15 years and 8 schools to complete this degree program.
