Snow Day!!!

So a few Saturday's ago we technically got snowed into our apartment, but luckily we live right across the street from Old Main Hill! So we decided to brave the weather and go sledding with our good friends' the Wayne's! We had both saved the big plastic bags that our bed's came in when we bought them (we both got married this past summer) so that we could go sledding with them! It was so much fun! Here's a cute picture of my sweet snowman:

And here's another picture of him in our cool "sled."

Update on our School Info...

So I realize that I always write about things we do, but never really give information on what is actually going on in our life. So here you go:

Mike has his application into Arizona State University and we are hoping and praying that he gets in. He's planning on applying to other schools, but this is our #1 choice. So, as far as graduate school goes, we are just waiting and hoping. We just finished the semester. It's kind of exciting because now we just have one more semester up here in Logan. After this coming semester Mike will graduate and I will still have my student teaching (done wherever we are at) and another semester, but I will just do that online from wherever we end up for graduate school.
We are very glad to have this semester over! It's been quite intense for the both of us. My semester was very time intensive and Mike's was very homework intensive. My days went from either 7-6 or 8-7 depending on the day and usually I wouldn't even get a lunch break. Mike's class and work schedule wasn't quite that intense, but he spend SO much time doing homework! It was insane! However, our hard work really paid off because I got a 4.0 and Mike got really good grades! (I don't know if he's appreciate me announcing them on here though.) We both really enjoyed our classes, but we are sure glad to have a break and get to actually spend real time with each other!

Our Charlie Brown Christmas Tree

Don't ya think they look about the same? Ha Ha! We love our Christmas tree! Our awesome friends cut it down for us when they got their normal sized tree. It's particularly exciting for me because it's my first real Christmas tree! Here's some step by step shots of us putting up our first Christmas tree. Putting rocks (that we "borrowed" from campus) into the can to hold the tree up.

Ok I forgot to take pictures of putting on the ornaments, but here's our cute (aka ghetto) star that I made:

And here's the finished product with us:

My sister's faces rock in this one!

Thanksgiving.

We have a fabulous time this Thanksgiving. We spent the time with the Mabey's and it was so great to spend time with family and especially cute nieces and nephews! This is my favorite picture from the weekend...

We had just finished playing a few rounds of Pit and realized that after all eating a Now & Later our tongues were all colored. I love the faces on some of the kids. :)
