Christmas time!

Well it's been a long time since my last post so I thought I would write about our plans for this next week and some of the fun family things we have had going on the last little while! This post will probably be pretty boring! I haven't been taking my camera with me lately I need to start taking it!

Where do I start? The last time I posted and told everyone that Carl has decied to go to school this next semester! He is still trying to decide what he REALLY wants to do...at first it was for sure welding and fabricating but after we found out that they might not have the night program for the next four years soooo then he played around with the idea of maybe becoming a police officer and doing POST and all that fun stuff....well after talking to my dad who is a police officer he has decided that he doesn't know for sure if that is the best thing to do. In my opinion I like the whole cop thing I've grown up with my dad doing it and police officers are always going to be around so there is some kind of job security in that and he would get great benifits but on the other hand I think that I might be worried about him all the time and that would stress me out! So we will see what he decides to do...he is still going to be taking gen eds next semester until he decides!

I finished school on the 17th I had two finals and they both were pretty easy! I'm still kind of back and forth on what I want to do with myself next semester so right now I am looking at my options and will probably just be taking classes to finish up my associates until I decide! I hate being grown up and making these decisions can I just tell everyone that! A while ago I was looking into esthetician school...well after calling around to some spas and Dr. offices I decided that might not be the best move right now with how the economy is at the moment. So now I am looking into doing more with dental assisting or the surgical tech program at SLCC.

The past weekend we have had a lot of fun with Carl's family! Friday night we had a party at the apartments club house that Melanie Carl's mom lives at and we had a lot of fun! We kind of started a little tradition of drawing names and doing gifts that way which I thinks works out great seeing that there are so many people. We had dinner and watched Reid play with the karaoke machine with all the little kids it was pretty funny! It was really fun to get together and spend time with everyone!

Saturday we headed to Provo to have luch with Carl's Grandma and his aunt Dion and uncle Bruce who are here visiting from California. We met at Grandma Sarah's favorite place....Chuck- a - rama....it was fun to visit with those guys we don't get to see Dion and Bruce or even Grandma very often so it was nice to get together and chit chat and have lunch!

As for Christmas eve we are heading to my grandparents house for dinner and to open a few gifts and hang out with my family. Christmas moring we are having breakfast with my dad's side of the family at my parents house then that night we will be heading back over to my mom's side for our big danish dinner that we do every year and somewhere in between all of that we will make time to go visit with Carl's dad!That is our plan for this next week! We have fun the last few weeks getting ready for all of this madness! Thanks to everyone for this weekend it was fun! Im sure the next time I post it will no longer be 2009!

MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
