The Triplets!

I am in love with my all of my nieces and nephews, but I wanted to make a special spot on my blog for my sister Karen's kids. She has a set of triplets who I can't ever get enough of! Anytime I am down, all I have to do is go visit them and I am all smiles when I leave. I stole these pictures from Karen's blog...I don't think she will mind too much. I am, afterall, showing off her kids. Aspen is the blond-headed girl, Brooke is the brunette, and of couse Conner is the little toehead boy! I love them all so much! Thanks Karen...for giving birth...I guess.

Thanksgiving and Such...

So far, the holiday season has been awesome! For Thanksgiving, Berkeley and I went to Centerville to be with my family. Berkeley played the traditional game of Turkey Bowl...aka...two-touch football...with family and friends on Thanksgiving morning. He came home with no broken bones, and that was a relief. The only thing hurt was his pride because his team lost to my little brother's team. Oh well, there is always next year. After the game, we lounged around my parent's house until it was time to eat. Dinner was fantastic as always...Thanks mom! We spent the rest of the day hanging out with family, playing games, and continually eating until our stomachs couldn't take anymore. I ate so many rice krispy treats...ugh... just thinking about it makes my stomach hurt.
After Thanksgiving, Berkeley and I were invited to a formal dinner by our friends. It was really nice to get dressed up and go on a date like that. Ninety percent of the time,when I am not at work, I am wearing my PJ's around the house, so that's what Berk gets to see all the time. Good thing I look so damn good in pajamas...just kidding...anyway...So we had dinner with friends and then spent and hour just taking silly pictures. It was a lot of fun. Maybe to end this post, I will tell you what I am thankful for.
1. The gospel of Jesus Christ.
2. My husband.
3. My family.
4. Our friends.
5. Prayer.
6. Our jobs.
7. Saturday mornings.
8. Cereal...mmm.
9. Hot chocolate.
Why do my thoughts always turn to food?

Cha-Cha-Cha!

I'm not sure if many people are aware of this, but Berkeley is an amazingly good dancer! He is on the silver ballroom team at UVSC. On Tuesday, he competed in the Cha-Cha and took both first and second place! He had two partners for the event placed with each. I just wanted to brag for him because he would never brag for himself...unless it is about his Hal0 skills or his incredible physique... Also, I was accepted to the Elementary Education Program at UVSC and get to start in January. I am excited to be moving on in school, and hopefully I won't change my major...again.

Mohawk and Guitar Hero...

It has been a fun few weeks for us. I finally convinced Berkeley that he should buzz his head because his hair was getting pretty shaggy, but somehow the agenda changed and a mohawk was the result of my efforts. I liked it though and Berkeley was a fan of it as well. He would be embarrassed if he saw this, but he liked it because it made him feel taller...who knew. He went to work with his mohawk and his boss made him wear a hat and told him it was a dumb-a** haircut! This did not bother Berkeley at all because he kept it over the weekend. We played Guitar Hero and the mohawk seemed fitting for the event. It was fun. I think he would have kept it forever, but I told him he couldn't teach in church with his hair like that, so he grudgingly shaved it off. It was fun while it lasted. Now he is just buzzed-head Berkeley. No more bad-boy image.

It Has Been A While...

Wow, I never update my blog and my friends complain, so here I am! It is time again to add a new post. This should appease those fellow bloggers for a little while...
Life is good and busy as ever. Berk and I are both back in school. I just applied for the Elementary Education program at UVSC, so pray that I get in. Berkeley is majoring in history with an emphasis in political science, but he is also a fantastic ballroom dance man!! He is on the Silver dance team for UVSC and he is so good. If at all interested, come to the Winter Dance Concert in November and watch him show off his skills. Life is good.
