A little catching up

A couple of weeks ago, my sister had to babysit our favorite kiddos Talon and Oakley. I hung out with them all day. We went to Artic Circle for lunch, Petco (since the zoo is closed), the mall to ride the rides, Target to shop around and at Shandell's apt to watch movies, make home made pizza, give the kids their baths and put them to bed. Such a fun day.

My families dog Maggie just dissapeared one day. Just our luck. So they got a new puppy! His name is Tucker and hes a corgi/mini aussie and is the cutest thing on earth! I want one!

My whole family got together last sat night and went to dinner at Texas Roadhouse. And as always, was a hoot. Im so blessed to live by all of my family. I know people out there that get to do that once every 3 yrs so for me to be able to get together with my whole family most every week is such a blessing.

The other night i was bored so i decided to put up our christmas tree! I normally ALWAYS wait till after thanksgiving but, eh, i caved this year. It was just me and Libbie. I turned on some pandora christmas music and went to town. quick story. I found a box of lights in my christmas decorations box and decided id put them up in the house somewhere this year. After i got the tree set up and decorated, the stockings hung and everything, i hung up these lights around our doorway. I pinned them up and they were perfect! I stepped back to look at the finished product and was so thrilled. My tree looked great, i actually had a tree skirt this year (last year libbie pooped on our old one and ruined it :( ), my lights looked great, and i was happy. Then i noticed on my lights around the door that one little bulb was out. So, i decided id switch it out. Well, when i pulled on the bulb to replace it, more than half my lights went out. I tried everything to make them work again and they wouldnt. i was SO dissapointed! all that work for this? haha ughhh. i was annoyed. So, i took a pic, then took them down cause i hate half lit up lights.

You can see my half lit lights around my door. haha i was ticked. 

I got together with my sister and siblings today. Me and my sister ended up making a snowman craft which turned out so cute! 

And for other news, Tami's is going good! I really enjoy working there! Im still doing my dental assisting school and am surprisingly loving it. I love learning about teeth!

Caleb is still staying busy with Big Juds and starts school in January again. 

Libbie is still her chipper self which makes us so happy shes ours. What joy she brings to me and Caleb. 

We've been able to work our schedules out a bit better so we are able to see each other more which has been so great. It's so hard when schedules clash so much you dont really get to spend a lot of time with your spouse! So we have been grateful for that! 

We do have ANOTHER nephew on the way! my goodness me and Caleb are doomed. We have 1 niece and this will be nephew #10. So im sure we'll end up with all the girls. oh goody. Still super excited though :) 

We are excited for the holidays and what they have to bring! It will be nice taking a break from school and work and spend it with loved ones. 

Life is good :) 

My life :)
