Finals are done
The holiday is officially begun
Kyle doesn't feel well
Grateful he doesn't need a pail
By his bed
Just to rest his weary little head

I am playing in the PG (Pleasant Grove) Basketball league with a friend from college and some of her friends. It has been so much fun. The first game we played against a group of high school girls from American Fork. I enjoyed being on the court. The last time I really shot the ball was the day before I had Warren. I love playing and getting to know the other players on the team. This week we played another group of moms. We won the first and lost the second. The season will continue after the New Year. I need to practice.

Deal of the week 6 boxes of crackers a $1.88. (Triscuts, Wheat Thins) thank you Buy Low and a customer who shared a coupon with me.

I gave Warren a little trim again and left him with two very distinct hair cut lines, he still is as cute as a button. We are loving his smile more and more, his laugh, and his little dance, it is so stinkin' cute hopefully we can get it on camera one day so we can post it. When he wakes up in the morning he looks at this lamp that is in his room. I take him over to it so he can touch it and then I turn it on to see what he'll do. Today he let out this cute little laugh the first time we did it this morning, so I did it some more. Having him around is so much fun. Babies appreciate the small things and are so curious about the whats around them. It makes life so much more interesting.

We are looking forward to Christmas to spend time with family. Merry Christmas to you all!

Finals Week

Let the party begin, almost. Kyle has finals this week, then one more semester. Last Friday we attended a closing social for the teachers at the ELC (English Language Center). There was a white elephant gift exchange we got velcro and wall mounting tape, I was really excited, they will be so useful. After the party we got in the jeep to go home. It didn't start... mmm... what was the matter? My dad came to pick us up and to take Warren and I home. My dad and Kyle returned to the jeep and got Triple AAA to tow it to the shop. (I am so grateful for them, they rescued Warren and I one day when I accidentally locked him in and me out.) They found out that the ignition was broken. We'll be back in business tomorrow. In the meantime my parents let us barrow their car. For which we have been tremendously grateful for many reasons. 1. We needed to get to church, I guess we could have walked. 2. Shopping at Walgreens. 3. More shopping. Thanks for letting us use the car!!!

Week in Review

Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Let it Snow! Yeah, the first real snow of the year how exciting! On Saturday I was able to get 2 boxes of Special K Blueberry cereal for $.60, thanks to Smiths and coupons. I am so excited to try it! I went to a Relief Society activity too. We were able to go to the temple this week too, thanks to the Lind's for watching Warren for us. I was able to see a couple of the people that I worked with, which some I've been hoping to see for a long time. It is a sweet experience to talk with those sisters in the temple who have been such a great influence in my life. I also had an embarrassing experience this week too... yikes maybe I'll share it another day. I learned that there are some questions you don't ask. Warren tried sweet potatoes this week and is a big fan. He also earned the title of super soaker, launcher, or whale this week. One morning after feeding him he spit up just like usual but it was like there was a waterfall coming out of his mouth or like the water from a whale's spout. One of the cushions was damp for 4+ hours. Kyle is counting down the days till he is finished with this semester, making plans for the TESOL conference and his Master's project.
