I know it's been a while, so I thought it would finally be a good time to update!
At the beginning of November Breeann and Kevin came out to visit us. We had a lot of fun with them, but I don't have many pictures because my battery died the day we went to the zoo. We didn't do much while they were here, a lot of lounging around, but we did go to the zoo one day, Howl at the Moon one night, and of course we ate A Lot!
The four of us at Howl at the Moon!
The holidays were super busy for us. For the beginning of Thanksgiving break we traveled to Palm Springs, CA for teacher's conference. While we were there Nicole came out and spent a day with us! It was a blast to see her! We headed back to Phoenix on Tuesday so that way we could get ready for Thanksgiving.
On Thanksgiving Day, Tyler's parents, Jeremy and Rachel came over to share a meal with us. We had way too much food for just the six of us, plus Kyrie, but it was still a lot of fun to share the meal with people we love.
Our table set before everyone got there! So much more food was on our table!
For Christmas we celebrated early when Dan and Megan came out to visit. That was a lot of fun too, and it was great to see them. We only wish that they lived closer so that way we could see them more. We were able to hang out with them for the weekend they were here, and we took them to Howl at the Moon too!! (Seeing a theme yet, if you come to visit, we'll take you there too!!)
I did a lot of baking!!
During Christmas break we traveled to my parent's house, up in Northern California, to be with my mom. She had knee surgery a week before Christmas, and I wanted to be home to help her get ready. She did great though, and was up walking around by the time I got home. She actually went back to work the same time Tyler and I went back to school! Yes, she is crazy! While we were home with my parents we were able to spend a couple of meals with Breeann and Kevin! It was great to see them again so close together! We can't wait for their wedding this May, and all of the fun activities before then! We were very blessed to spend Christmas day with my family, and they spoiled us of course! We were able to see my aunt, and cousins too, and his babies! I love those kids, and only wish we could see them more!
My mom and I enjoying the warm fire!

After we left my parent's house, we traveled down to Bakersfield to hang out with another set of our parents. Kris' parents are wonderful, and we always have a blast staying there. We were able to spend a day with them, and to see Kris and Ross too! We love them, and are so happy that we were able to impose on their family time and hang out! Of course our time was way too short, but it was a blast!
My beautiful friend Kris!
We came to visit mom on her lunch break!
We then headed down to Orange County to spend the rest of our time with Nicole and Jon. We ended our break in an amazing way!! We just hung out, read a lot, played a lot of Wii, and ate! They are a blast to hang out with, and our New Years was a lot of fun! We miss them, and were very happy to have a couple of family meals!! :D We even got our annual family Christmas picture in!
Our annual family picture!
Now we are back in the swing of school. We have today off, which has been a nice and relaxing day. Tyler and I are both working hard on our masters, and keeping up our grades. We are both hoping to be done by spring 2011, so we are pushing through it.
We are looking forward to amazing summer plans, and can't wait to see you all again soon! Please keep us in your prayers, and I promise to be better about updating our site!!
Love you all!
