Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Merry Christmas Everyone!! This year for Christmas the best gift that I received was having all of my family be together in one house! Wow, now that has been a while, but I totally loved it! I could not be happier, and by far it beats the presents that could have under the tree! My family is so funny when we get together. My ditsy twin sister was so excited to show me her footsie pajamas that when she came prancing down the stairs, she slipped and ran into our kitchen wall, the corner of it and dented it, ha I am so surprised that she didn't break her knee, but the poor wall ha! I hope that we can remember the true meaning of Christmas. Presents are wonderful, but that is not what Christmas is about. It's about remembering the birth of Christ and all the sacrifices that he made for us during his life. I love this season, and I love how close everyone becomes at this time! The miracles are countless and and magnificent, it's amazing to see how everyone sacrifices things for other people, even when there is noting to be given. I also love, at Christmas time, all of the lights on the houses, it brightens up peoples moods about the holiday, and some are very creative.





Yesterday, I was able to go snowboarding for my second time, with my cousins. It was so so much fun, even though I fell countless times, I had the time of my life! We went to Brighton and when I was coming down Crest, I took a pretty hard fall, except this time, instead of falling on my bum, I fell forward on my knees, I have a swollen and bruised knee, yippie! I guess that's what you get for it being your second time and the last time I went, was a year ago. Snowboarding is so thrilling and is a way good work out! Since I just had a whole bunch of mouth work done, I wore a mouth guard, ha I got lots of comments on it. And my teeth survived and I worked hard to stay up, and finally my last couple runs, I was able to stand up, but my legs were so tired they would just give out on me, I guess that's what you get for snowboarding for 7 1/2 hours and it being your second time!

What being in college has taught me

I know I have been terrible at writing on my blog the past couple of months. School has engulfed my attention and honestly blogging has been the last on my priority list. I wanted to write blog about my college experience... since I graduate in 53 days. I am thrilled beyond words to be this close to being done. I had know idea it would feel like this nor that it would come so soon. In just a few short months I will be able to call myself a graduate of Health Promotion and Education with an emphasis in Community, also being eligible to become CHES (Certified Health Education Specialist) certified. Wow what a mouthful! Being in college was not like I expected, it was much more. I have been through the worst of worst and the best of best experiences. I would like to share with you what I have learned in the past four years (From beginning to end), I hope you can get a good laugh about it. To those who have yet to start college, I strongly encourage you to start thinking about going. You w...

One of my favorite walls

There have been times that I come home from work or other places, exhausted, frustrated, and uneasy. I have always been a home body and love the comfort I get when inside. When I was preparing to move out when I got married I dreamed of decorating my own place, of hanging my own pictures, of designing the way my furniture was set up. Since I have been married almost one year, I never realized that I have one wall in particular I love to look at. It is in my bedroom, the wall opposite of where our bed sits. I see this wall as I wake up, go to sleep, start and end my day. It's not that big of a deal, and it's actually quite bare, but there are 3 things on there that I love. The first thing is a picture of my husband and I (one that I put together with the lyrics to our first dance), on our wedding day, dancing to our song, "Breathe" by Angels and Airwaves. This picture brings back the giddy feeling of being in a room full of people and the only person I had any knowl...

LIFE.

Hello friends and family! It has been so long since I have posted. Let me tell ya, mama hood takes a lot of time, which I am so grateful for. However, I had a spare minute (literally, Evie is napping right now) where I wasn't doing anything. Which quite honestly is very rare . I don't even know where to start on updates. So bare with me as this literally might be word vomit with no sense of order. First and foremost, we are HOME OWNERS! It was quite the whirlwind getting moved and settled in, but after about a month of rearranging, organizing, getting new things, our house is now a home. Going from a small two bedroom duplex to a 4 bedroom+living room+big kitchen+office+basement+3 bathrooms, we had to do some splurging. We will probably have empty rooms for a while, but sometimes it's nice to go sit in those empty rooms and escape the piles of things that are starting to appear. I still have lots to do, but I going to be ambitious and build (with my Dad and probably  Gran...
