I know i have not blogged in a long time mostly due to the fact that our lives are the same everyday with very little altering. So i will give an over view of the last few months of our lives.
November: This was my first Thanksgiving away from home i missed Grandma's stuffing(she makes some for me that is NOT cooked in the turkey). So on Thanksgiving day Blake and myself went to the movies, something i have made fun of others for in the past, it was great fun! That evening we spent a wonderful meal with Todd, Andrea, Gracie and Andrea's two sisters. We had a lot of fun making toasts about nothing and eating good food. Thanks for having us over guys. I was playing pit for a ballet the two days before and the two days after thanksgiving so it was nice to have a day off and relax.
December: Was great i got out of school a week before Blake did so i got to just relax and practice and clean the house(something that tends to get slightly neglected during school). we then made our way to the Francisco's for Christmas. We were able to spend a week hanging out, cooking good food(now i am trying to lose the weight mom always seems to put on me)watching fun movies and playing Yahtzee, and Dominoes (two games i love to play with Jim he cracks me up). The day after Christmas we headed up North to spend the next week with the Wagstaff family. Here i did a lot of sewing while Blake and Dad made model cars that they received for Christmas. Both cars turned out great. For New Years eve we had a great steak dinner with the family (except Chrissy who thinks Hot dogs are better then steak) and we let the party start!!! we Had Mom, Dad, Grandma, Grandpa, Aaron Chrissy, Caleb and a girl i can't remember her name, Me Blake, Priscilla Matt, and Travis. We spent the night playing apples to apples and five crowns, and watched the 2010 year enter.
January: Has found us back to the books. We continue to work hard at our studies Blake is still getting great test scores due to his diligence in studying. 2 things have happened this month. First we purchased a Wii. I have never seen Blake really want anything so when he kept wanting this gaming system i could not refuse. So we found a great deal on amazon and made our purchase. This as i told him is both of our birthday presents and anniversary presents for the year. The things is since we are now staying home on Friday night playing the wii, we are saving a lot of money on our dates. So i think it was a good purchase. Blake picked Mario kart and i picked new super mario brothers for our games. i then took the money i had earned tutoring and playing for the ballet and we got the wii fit plus system that allows us to exercise and learn yoga in our living room. (very fun).
2nd adventure of the month is that our home computer bit the dust...Thankfully our Home teacher works at intel and has gotten us great deals on the parts we need to get it back up and running. The parts are to be here today and Blake gets to learn how to build a computer. He is excited to learn this so i guess something good came out of it.
Well i think you are all caught up in our lives.
Have a great month, i will try to write more often.
