Christmas Eve!!!

This Christmas was so great. I loved being around all my family and especially my nephew Eli, who was so excited to Santa to come. Our Christmas Eve was so much fun! Nathan and Laurel opened their home to us and served some great food, which included bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers, brie, chicken skewers, etc. It was so delicious and so much fun! Here are some highlights:

Tree Decorating and Gingerbread houses!!!

This past weekend, my nephew Eli came over and helped my mom and I decorate the Christmas tree and build a gingerbread house. Here are some highlights!!!

Semester's End!

So, my hardest, most challenging semester has finally come to an end and I made, just barely. I was always going to make it, but there were times, I'll admit, when I didn't think I would. And how I made it to the end, I do not really understand. All I know is that now I feel this overwhelming amount of peace and happiness. The stress is gone and my sleep feels good. I have stopped dreaming of school assignments and waking up with my mind racing.

Now, I am off to California for the break and some much needed rest. Thank you for all your love and support. I've truly needed it.

P.S. I got straight As when I was just aiming for Bs.

So Funny!

I read this blog called "How to Find Mr. Wrong." It's hilarious and this was posted the other day. I can't stop laughing. How desperate can you be? I'll let you decide.


I especially love the second call.

And I made it!

Well, almost. I have finished all my final assignments, except for 1 which I just need to proof read once more, but that will be tomorrow. A few weeks ago, if you asked me if I would make it to this point, I would have probably burst into tear, well I did, more than once. Just a few more days and the most challenging period of my life will have ended. I shouldn't say ended, but the trial I went through is done. So close, I plan to celebrate!
