I used to be able to blog at work when I didn't have any patients but now thatis not the case and so I have been bad at finding time at home to update our blog. So finally after a "relaxing" holiday weekend I have decided its time to update everyone on what has been going on the last month or so of our lives.
First of all we MOVED! We were not planning on moving until January but in the middle of November we found an apt we loved and had to move on it quick to get it. So we spent Thanksgiving break packing all of our belongings into boxes! Landon thought we could fit everything into 10 boxes!!! He quickly found out that was not the case and you accumulate lots of stuff after being married a year! We moved into our new place on December 1st and had loads of fun hauling all of our stuff up three flights of stairs! But we love our new place and its nice not living below anybody anymore, our apartment is so quiet now that we don't have to listen to noisy kids all the time, we had to buy an ipod dock so we can play music to fill the silence now!
We got to celebrate Landon's 23rd birthday on the 6th of December and my Dad's 50th birthday at the end of November and went and saw the Trans Siberian Orchestra, it was lots of fun. I always like to give him a hard time that he finally has caught up to me! For those of you who don't know I am 10 months older than Landon so I have to poke some fun at him that in two months I will be 24. We also got to go up to Logan and see one of my old room mates get married! It was so much fun to see all of my friends I miss them so much, hanging out with those girls make me smile, we always have so much fun! and to see Ash get married to her best friend reminded me of mine and Landons happy day!
We both finished our our semesters of school with some dignity left! Landon and I were both working full time and taking classes, a first for both of us! It proved to take a little more effort to get everything done but we both managed to get all A's and B's which is good! I have finally finished all of my pre requisite classes and so I will be applying for nursing school in January! Im so nervous to find out if I get in or not, and then to finally figure out what I will be doing for the next few years....Nursing school or Plan B (Not sure what that is yet!).
After finals were done Landon and I kept up our tradition we started and went and picked out a real christmas tree and came home to decorate for christmas! I love having a real tree! It was one of my favorite memories as a kid to go and cut down a tree! We had a great Christmas! We spent Christmas Eve down at Landon's grandmas house with all of Landon's extended family. We had a wonderful dinner, played bingo for some totally awesome presents ( Landon got a slinky and I got a cornbread muffin mix!) and just enjoyed everyones company! For Christmas we spent the morning unwrapping the presents we got each other. I got some new snowboard boots, some cloths and a great cake decorating book (my new hobby) and Landon got a snowboarding jacket some cloths and all the star treck DVD's which he had been wanting! Then we went over to my families house had breakfast and more presents and then got to talk to my brother when he called home from his mission! Also, Landon's parents and my parents both pitched in a lot and got Landon and I a way nice kitchen table and chair set! Thanks so much we love it! Now we have all of our snowboarding stuff and night passes up to sundance so we can start going snowboarding after work!
We had a wonderful year and cant wait to see what adventures the next one brings! Thanks to all of our family and friends life would not be as enjoyable without loved ones in it! I am so happy to have been able to spend all this time with Landon, loving and growing closer to him over the past year! We have so much fun together! Love you babe!
