A new semester!

I have started a new semester! I am taking anatomy as well as nutrition. I'm excited for nutrition because it will help me to remember all of the things I'm supposed to be doing to stay healthy! Yum... now I actually have to buy all those delicious foods... and better yet remember they are there and need to be eaten.
Nutrition is a passion of mine. If I didn't want to be a nurse so bad, and If I wanted to stay in school for four or five more years... I would be a nutritionist!. Speaking of passions... I am SUPER EXCITED about taking anatomy. It is going to be a challenge. However, I find the human body fascinating! The fact that our cells just know what to do. That 2 simple cells can get together and duplicate over and over again until they created a fully functioning human being! CRAZY! Heavenly Father really knows what he's doing!I've learned that Da Vinci was a brilliant anatomist. He studied the human body to improve his art work. I get to study a cadaver during my anatomy lab this semester! This will be a new... completely AWESOME experience for me! I can not wait till we start studying with them!
All the while my J has been amazing. He picked me up for lunch today so we could have time together. If that surprise wasn't enough, I came home and the laundry was done and the dishes were in the dishwasher! I couldn't ask for a better friend and husband! I really couldn't do this without him! J will start school FULL TIME in the fall, and then we might have to find someone else to do the laundry and the dishes... ;)

Happy Holidays!!!

So this may be a little late... better late than never. We had fun with family for thanksgiving! and Jacob had fun at the annual neighborhood turkey bowl.

And then Christmas came. Note: Jacob and I are firm believers that Christmas should not start until after thanks giving, so 2 days after the day of the grateful, we decorated for one of the best holiday's of the year! CHRISTMAS!!!

Yes it looks like J is the only one actually decorating... Keep in mind I'm the one with the camera.

Christmas eve dinner was very glamorous! We gad grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup (My favorite) with sparkling cider (Jacob's favorite). We had a nice relaxed eve and watched the one and only The Christmas Story!

Christmas day was spent at Jacob's parents house! We spent the day playing games and relaxing. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!!
