I've finally started a blog! I have no idea how to do this really, but I figure that it's a good way for the family to stay in touch. My sister in law's cute blog inspired me to do this, so I hope it goes well. I guess to start out I'll tell what's going on in our lives right now.

Brian is still plugging away at the semester waiting for it to be Christmas break so we can get out of Provo and go to Ohio! He is doing his Chemistry research. He has tests, homework, and then finals to look forward to the next few weeks so I really can't blame him for never wanting to get out of bed in the morning. However, it is also his birthday on the 14th! He's going to be 26....kinda weird for me, but I'm super excited! He has almost beaten Okami, which he loves and is always so excited to play, but I don't know if he'll be able to find the time in the upcoming weeks. Men and their video games.... :) 

I am just working from home and trying to find things to pass the time. Since Brian spends such long hours at the lab everyday I've taken up toll painting so that I can have more Christmas decorations. I am EXTREMELY excited for Christmas that I think my bones might just burst with Christmas excitement! So, now that we've had the tree up for a month, lights up, presents under the tree, and more decorations around the house Christmas still seems so far away. I am also trying to learn Spanish...slowly. I'm not very good at it and I need to be more diligent, but I am really enjoying it so far. Hopefully I'll be able to understand and speak a little by the summer.
