Well, it really has been a long time since the last blog. Thigns have been moving so fast as of late. For me, the time between Thanksgiving and the Winter Break is really crammed with testing and extra class assignments because of the short period. School has been goign well, although I never get everything done tha tI set-out to accomplish! I think that's a blessing and a curse because it means we're ambitious, yet it is also frustrating to not be able to finish projects in a timely manner. Oh well,learning doesn't always have a schedule, I guess.
On the family side of things, Thanksgiving was wonderful. My father flew to Virginia to surprise us! It was also the first time he got to meet his granddaughter, so it was extra special! Personally, it was my alltime favorite Thanksgiving due to the combination of the surprise dad element, as well as both Kim and Audrey joining me for their first Virginia Thanksgivings! What a treat. Plus, on top of all of that, the usual wonderful suspects were present plus all of the wonderful food, laughter, and smiles! Audrey was a champ on the airplanes, sleeping about 95% of the time.
We are currently camped out in South Bend, IN visiting Grandma and finishing our holiday shopping. School was cancled today due to an ice storm, so it was a quiet morning spent in bed playing with my baby and watching the snow fall during sunrise.
As the holiday season approaches, I am both warmed by the love for family and friends, and saddened by the amount of advertising and desperation caused by the tanked economy. I want to wish everyone a safe, peaceful season. I urge everyone to take a moment and count your blessings, no matter how small, end enjoy the ones around you. Many many pictures to follow soon, as I am now on Winter Break and have a bit of time to actually update this blog as well as respond the the bazillion e-mails I've been procrastinating on! Be well and stay warm!
