HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

So much has happened this last year! I married my best friend, gained another family, moved out, learned to pay bills, learned how to grocery shop, learned that grocery shopping can be expensive, learned how to make dinners (Thanks Mom and Jamie for many help me phone calls), changed jobs twice, took my husband to the E.R., learned that medical bills suck, bought a car, made my first loan payment, and I gained a deeper testimony of the gospel of Jesus Christ. What an exciting year! We are so grateful for our blessings and we are excited to see what this new year will bring!

Christmas

We had wonderful Christmas! It was full of lots of surprises! Jeff surprised me with a wii! For those of you who don't know I love the wii and have wanted one for awhile. I'm not really a gamer but I love the games on the wii because I'm actually good at them. Okay, maybe not all the games but I really like the sports games and the wii fit games. I surprised Jeff with a Shake Weight! One night we came across the infomercial for the shake weight and thought that it was funny. A few weeks later we saw a commercial again and Jeff jokingly said, "I want that for Christmas." He knew everything else he was getting so I decided to suprise him with the shake weight! It was so fun seeing him open it. He was so surprised! He has used it couple times and it really does work! We had a great first Christmas. We were grateful that we were able to spent Christmas with family. We feel so blessed!

 

Zoo Lights!

I was able to go to zoo light this year with my in-laws. It was a lot of fun. Jeff had to work so he wasn't able to come. :( It was so fun looking at lights with the nieces and nephews. Parker wanted to take a picture with the penguin lights for Uncle Fuzzy (Jeff). While we were there Santa came to visit with two of his reindeer. The kids all had fun sitting on Santa's lap except for Brylee. She did NOT like Santa! The picture of Brylee sitting by Santa screaming is my favorite! Jenni and I also got to sit on Santa's lap!
