Let it snow...

Sorry it has been a while since I last posted something. Finals week was really rough. I actually did pretty well in all my classes, but there was 2 of them that I really thought I had a possibility to fail. I passed them all and I have had this last week off to relax. Which is good since my last test took 16 hours of cramming in the 22 hours before the test started. Here is a picture of me and Lily shortly after I finished it.

So this week off has been used getting to know my family again and getting the house ready for winter. I pretty much finished what I wanted to Friday afternoon which was great because this morning we woke up to this:



Amanda has thrown herself into christmas. Per her instructions we have made sugar cookies, purchased and decorated a tree, gotten other decorations for the house and set up the ones we already had, and been listening to Christmas songs including a CD of the chipmunks (my family should appreciate the signifigance of this purchase, it's not christmas without the chipmunks!) Here is Amanda working on the tree.



To get all this done she has had to be creative. Like when she does the laundry:



Only 3 more weeks till our trip to Arizona! We can't wait to see all of you.
