The new year is here!

Hello all!  I was so bad over the break at not keeping the blog updated.  But I'm back now.  Christmas break was wonderful and over way too quickly.  It was a lot of fun to have Kayleen's mom down for almost a week.  We had a lot of fun together.  But we realized too late after she was gone that we didn't take pics on our camera.  So hopefully we can get the pics from Kayleen's mom sometime to have.

We brought in our first New Year together at home.  We watched a movie at home and went out in front of our house to see the fireworks at midnight.  We missed some of the big family/friend New Year's parties of the past, but it was favorite to just be spending time together (and it was nice to be able to go straight to bed at 12:15).

We also got to go to my Mom's to see her new home and celebrate Rebekah's birthday.  Their house is really nice!  We like it and we loved spending time up there.  My mom and I got to play a duet on the piano and that got us both a smilin' and a laughin' quite a bit!

Now we're back in school, busy as ever!  Kayleen is back full-time but is loving her new major.  She likes her new job as a teacher's aide as well.  I'm still working at the MTC as well as getting in a few hours a week as a research assistant with Dr Lowry, who is one of the leading ISys researchers in the world.  Everything is working out so well for us!
