Happy New Year!

These past 2 weeks of vacation went by WAY too fast. But I'm pretty anxious to start this semester as it'll mostly be focused around my internship preparation. Have yet to start getting shots, passport, and visa but that's all on the to-do list this week. "Santa" brought me some nice American Tourister luggage so I don't have to worry about my luggage falling apart during transfers.
For the past week the Farfans (Krystal, Javier, Ruth, Mario, Kaylie and Brandy) have been here at our house. Living with 13 people under one roof is challenging to say the least. But it has been so much fun to play with the girls. Kaylie has grown up so much and Brandy is just as sweet as can be.

Some other highlights as seen above include:
1) Cousin Ashley from CA came up for a short visit and played in the snow with us. I give her 90% credit for how awesome our snow man turned out.

2) New Year's Eve "kid party". I'm still recooping but it was fun for me to have all the kids.

3) Brock's baby blessing

I guess I'm supposed to announce some sort of resolution as it's the beginning of the year, but I never make them. Okay fine, I resolve, to make it through this semester, get through my internship and survive through the next 9 months till October.
