Out With the Old in With the New

Happy New Year one and all! We brought in the new year with great friends and great food...so needless to say it was nice! We are so excited that a new year has begun because with each new year brings endless possibilities. New years resolutions need to be made (and, ahem, kept).

We are looking forward to our trip to Utah in May. My beautiful sister Beka is engaged and in love. We are so happy for her and so excited to meet the new addition to the clan. It'll be great to visit with friends and family and keep those connections tight.

School starts up again this coming week! Yay! Dan will start his second semester and we are hoping that he will pull off another 4.0! (I am fiercely proud of him!) Our first few months here have been quick, but very enjoyable. It's great to be in a new environment and experiencing a different culture.

I'm back to work again after a break and it's comfortably the same as always. I know it's crazy but I don't mind getting up at 4:00 A.M. to work. As long as I get to bed at a reasonable hour then I am good to go. I am STILL working on Em's quilt. My hobby is going slowly, but that's okay. Who's in a hurry anyway? Anyone who knows my last quilt experience can understand why I am taking so long. I am scared to sew those squares together!

Our kids are growing and healthy. Em is loving preschool and playing with her little brother. She surprises us every day with how grown up she thinks she is! Ashton is still our non-stop bundle of cuddles and joy. We love them both and are excited they are in our family.

Well, I'll write more when there's more to say.
