Hey!

So....

...so much has happened since I was last on here. Of course, my last post wasn't really informative as to what's going on in our lives but still...so much!

Christmas was great! We had Christmas Eve service and came home and opened gifts. On Christmas Day, we got up early, drove to Uncle Gene's, where he made us breakfast and we got to hang out with him and Grandma. Then we went to Aunt Judy's and ate more food. Haha! Spent a few hours there before heading to Papa & Faye's where...you guessed it...we ate more food! It was crazy exhausting but it was fun!

New Year's Eve we had an open house for the church. That was fun. Got to see the ball drop and bring in 2009. :-)

Mom is working, working, working. Her doctor went to a different office so she's had to get used to that. It's still crazy there with the new systems (or lack there of...) so that's been kind of a bummer for her but...she's doing it!

Dad is busy with work, too. Good news is we're growing so much we have to go to 2 services. That's pretty exciting.

Amber had her wisdom teeth out a few weeks later. She was eating Oreos that night. When I had mine out, I was eating pudding and ice cream for like 2 weeks...I didn't even want to eat anything other than that...it hurt too bad!

Aislinn is still drawing all the time. She gave me 2 pictures for my birthday - a painting and a...whatchamacallit...I guess it's just a drawing. I don't know! But yeah...so she's doing that and other stuff, too. Always wanting to drive. ALWAYS!! She's one lesson away from getting her license so she's saying "Can I drive? Please?" Haha! That's okay...better her than me!

Things have been crazy with college stuff coming in the mail pretty much every day or so. It gets overwhelming sometimes but it's okay. Lol! But I've applied to 2 schools and got accepted to one of them (on my birthday...how cool!) so it's going pretty good I guess.

So how bout that Superbowl. Ya know, living in Steeler Country, I just had to go for the Cardinals. And they were doing pretty well last night. Except for that interception by the Steelers when they went in for a touchdown (that wasn't cool in my opinion...lol!) But then we scored and had a 3 point lead and then BAM!!! Another touchdown. Ugh! Oh well...it's okay. The end of football season means that baseball season is starting soon!!! GO YANKEES!!! (I know, I'm gonna get killed here in the Pittsburgh area!)

Okay so yeah...we've been crazy busy. And it's taken me FOREVER to update. I'm sorry!
