Not much to tell...

So you would think that being home all day would give me lots of time to write on the blog.  This is true.  However, it is also true that being home all day doesn't really give me anything interesting to blog about.  Hence the lack of posts.

We hired a new cashier at work.  He started this week and we discovered almost immediately that he's my downstairs neighbor!  I mean, he and his wife just moved in to the apartment EXACTLY below us!  What are the odds?

Aaron's been busy with school and work, as well as interviews and stuff for a big boy job.

I've been working out most days, and I'm rather proud of myself for sticking to it.  But really, I couldn't do it without my Wii.  And I've finally started to lose a few pounds!  Finally!

Aaron and I have both been anxiously awaiting the arrival of a baby!  No, not our own- my friend Johanna (and her husband of course) is expecting and the baby should be here any time now!  The due date was January 31st, so now it's a waiting game.  Johanna and I have known each other since middle school in Virginia and now she lives in my apartment complex here in Utah.  We hang out a lot so I plan on hanging out with this baby a lot too!

So that's life these days, in case you wondered.

Have a happy Groundhog Day- it sound like we're going to have an early spring!  (By the way, Phil only predicts correctly about 40% of the time...  Maybe we should be using hedgehogs instead?)

The Christmas Post

So I know this is super late, but I had a great Christmas with my family and it's high time I got around to writing about it.

We flew out on Dec. 19th.

Spent the week hanging out with the family that was there so far, doing some last minute Christmas shopping, playing Wii, doing a puzzle, and decorating cookies.  Found out that my brother and his wife are having a BOY!  Yay for babies!

Christmas Eve: The rest of the family arrives.  Sleepy Soup for dinner.

Christmas:  Yay!

Spent the next week playing with nephew Archer and the rest of the family, finally meeting my sister's future husband, playing Wii, doing another puzzle, and decorating MORE cookies.  Saw the Social Network.  Loved it.

Flew back on Dec 31st.  Saw the sun rise from the airplane.

Spent New Year's Eve sitting on the couch (after a 3 hour nap) because we had been traveling for over 10 hours that day and didn't have the energy to do anything else.  Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!

I'll have to make time later to write about my awesome Christmas Break with my family in Manassas, VA.  But for now, I just want to wish everyone a happy new year!
