I am so excited. We booked it for the end of May after I get finished with school. I am ready to go now! Here are a few pictures of the resort and room...

Christmas 2010

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas this year. Ours was great. We started out the celebration with Trevor's family by going to Prince of Peace for the Christmas Eve service, like we have done ever since we have been together. After church we went to dinner at Firebirds. We always go back to Trevor's parents house and take pictures.

On Christmas morning we woke up and did our Christmas with each other. Of course we kept the tradition going with matching Pj's that I used to do with my family again this year. Trevor did really good this year. Last year he got me another band for my wedding set, which he didn't have to do a lot of shopping for. This year he went shopping and got me clothes. He knows me well! I only had to take one thing back because it did not fit. But other than that I loved everything. As he was shopping for me this year he called and said, "this is really hard can't I just get you another band". Ha! Ha! He is such an awesome husband and I thank God everyday that he brought us together.

After we did our Christmas together we went to his parents house for breakfast and opened presents with them. Trevor got a new Wii from them so he will have that to keep him occupied when I start back school.


After we left their house we went home dropped off the presents from them and picked up the presents to take to my parents and went there for lunch. The kids, my sister, and brother-in-law were already there. Santa came to my parents to the kids as well. My parents really out did themselves this year, you will see in the pictures. After we opened presents and ate Madison read us a Christmas story. She is getting to be so good at reading.

New Buick Enclave!! And they also got this...

55 Inch TV for each other! I have never seen a box so big.

After all the family stuff we came home and Trevor hooked up his Wii and Devin came over to play it with him. Trevor also got a remote control car and I got a flip video so later I will have to put up a video of Stanford and the car, pretty funny.

It was so nice to spend so much time with our families and not worry about anything else like school or obligations anywhere else. I am so thankful for all of the wonderful people in my life.

Life these Days

Praise the lord!! I am out of school for a few weeks and passed, which is always a plus. So on to my 5th and FINAL semester. I start back on January 10th. It was a rough week last week taking my final and feeling uneasy until finding out my grade until the middle of the week. Now I am just really ready for Christmas and time that we will spend with family and friends.

On Friday I finished a few presents for Trevor and now I am feeling good knowing that all of our shopping is done. Everything is wrapped and under the tree. After shopping at the summit that morning I went to meet my mom and we got our nails and toes done. Great treat, I might add. After that we went back to her house to do our traditional Christmas baking. We made so much stuff including: chocolate covered Ritz and peanut butter, chocolate covered pretzels, peppermint bark, and a few other things. After all of our baking I got ready for a date night with Trevor. We went to Stix for dinner and then went to see Despicable Me. Was all in all a great day.

On Saturday Trevor and I met his dad, Chad, and Alissa at Fox Valley for dinner. Always delicious! After dinner we went to see Devin's new band play at Matthews Bar and Grill downtown. They did a really good job. There were lots of people there. We didn't get home until midnight. That is really late for us old folks!

On Sunday I went golfing with Trevor, Greg, and Chad. It was a little chilly but not too bad. I just didn't know what to do with myself all weekend without picking up a book.

All taken with the cell phone so not the best quality
This week at work my doctor was only there seeing patients on Monday so the rest of the week is just catch up time with taking a little time off.

I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas!!

Heather and Ben's Engagement!!

Last weekend we were able to celebrate with Heather and Ben on their engagement. He proposed to her at dinner then when they came back to his house we were all waiting to surprise her. All of their family were there and a few friends. We had a good time celebrating with them. Here are a few pictures from the night.

Me, Heather, Sam, and Owen




Congratulations to the happy couple!!!

The next morning Trevor and I ran in the Jingle Bell Run with Marcie's work. I have not worked out or done any cardio since the Race for the Cure in October, so I am a little out of shape. Trevor always stays back with me but this time I told him to just run without me. He ran the whole thing with his brother and finished in 27 minutes. I was very proud of him. I finished in 37 minutes which I wasn't really that happy with but those hills are a killer in this race. So I guess it was okay.

This Monday is my final for the semester. I am extremely nervous about it so please pray for me this weekend while I study and Monday for the test. Hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the week.
