Just a little behind!

I am so behind! There has been so much going on between school, work, and the holidays that I completely forgot to write.

School- this was the first semester I made straight A's! I was so excited and I still am. I don't know if I can pull that off for this next semester but I am going to try. These next three semesters are going to be challenging for me. In the spring I have Urinalysis/ Body Fluids, Phlebotomy, Hematology, Immunology/Serology and Medical Term.  A full plate indeed!! 

Holidays- As soon as Thanksgiving starts, it seems there is a big countdown till Christmas and New Year's. I can not believe how fast this year as gone. For Christmas, my parents came and spent time here in Texas. I enjoyed getting to spend time with them. Ever since moving to Texas, I rarely get to see them. Shane and I decorated his apartment in silver and blue this year. We have different tastes for decor and we agreed last Christmas to rotate each year as to who decorates. This year was mine! Here are some pictures! 

 The silver glitter ribbon was by far one of my favorite Christmas decorations this year!

 This is my sentimental tree. Right now, it is little and there is not very many ornaments but we are going to add to it each year! We put the ones too big to fit on the tree on the bottom.

 Our table.1 I found a blue tray and large blue plates later at Target for 50% off and added them to the table.

Our big "Martha Stewart" tree... Everything on the tree was 50%-75% off when I bought it. I love to bargain shop! 

 The men in my family... The chairs needed to be held down apparently!

 Baby sister and the Simi dog. These two were inseparable during her visit.

Melissa was shocked when she got a new laptop. She picked it our for Mom. Dad gave it to Mom for a Christmas present and then they asked her to help them with it. Oh, yeah, her name was registered on the computer... Best surprise for Christmas! 

Off to plan the wedding!!!!
