There's No "We" in Pizza

Dearest blog readers,

It has been awhile! For that I apologize! And  make a new years resolution to be better about blogging! So, to get everyone caught up, I have just finished my first semester at BYU, after school almost kicked my butt, I was relieved to come out with all A's and B's! The new semester starts tomorrow, and I am taking mostly online classes, and two classes at the Salt Lake extension center, so I won't be commuting to and from school...HUGE plus.  I am also going to be studying abroad in London from April to June! So this next semester I'm going to be going back to working 40 hours, and keeping up on 13 hours of school! Should be a real party! Other than that, I just recently took a trip home to Washington for Christmas. It was the first Christmas I've had at home since the year I graduated high school, so we were all pretty stoked about that. So I'm mostly going to include some pictures of  my trip, and then I'll write again next week!


My boys are getting much much too big! Aidan is now almost taller than me!

 We got to do some fun things like the Zoo lights at point defiance zoo!

 And best of all, lots of movie watching and relaxing!

For Christmas the boys got some pretty fancy remote control cars that go outside and all sorts of cool stuff, so we spent most of Christmas morning outside watching them play :) 

 And taking pictures with Grandpa, using the fancy new camera (D5500) that my family collaborated on for me for Christmas.

 We also went and pierced my Daith. Mom and I got an article sent to her about these piercings and their use in treating chronic pain and migraines. It's a pressure point used in acupuncture, and the guy who did it for me said that about 95% of the people he's done them for have said they have helped relieve some of the pain, or taken away the migraines completely. So far I've seen a BIG relief in the intensity of my migraines, and while my head still hurts, I take Tylenol here and there instead of Excedrin a few times a day.

 I also got to end out my trip on a ride along with dad! It's always so fun to go out and see what he does and to spend some quality time with him :)

I'll also end with two other exciting things! First of all...Star Wars. AMAZING! And a big congratulations to Amy and Stephen on the birth of a happy healthy baby boy this past week! He's adorable, and I was overjoyed to be able to go meet him yesterday :)

Alright! That's all for now. Love you all!!
