happy new year!!!

This is the first official post of the new year, woo hoo! We had a pretty eventful new years day. Last night we ended up not going to Wendover like we originally planned, but went to a party instead. It wasn't great fun, but we saw a few people that have moved out of state this past year and were visiting for the holidays, so that made the trip worth it completely. We left soon after midnight and came home and watched a movie on cable and crashed around 3am. We woke up this morning around 10 (it was so nice to sleep in without the kids waking us up, thank you so much Margie and Wade for letting them stay the night!) We saw the first showing of Seven Pounds, which was a really good movie and I highly recommend everyone go see it. I cried pretty hard towards the end, almost couldn't catch my breath because I was trying to cry quietly, lol! After that, we picked up the kids and had lunch at Texas Roadhouse with my godmother Pat & her boyfriend Rod. It was a good time, I love spending time with her. Came home around 4, took naps until 8 pm! What a day.

I'm not the resolution-making type, but this year, I hope that I will finally finish my Associates Degree (just one class to go), finish my 1 prerequisite for dental hygiene school, hopefully start school, get into a house, and maybe, just maybe settle into being a mom more and figure out how to balance kids, husband, work, school and home! Any suggestions are highly appreciated! I hope everyone had a great year, here are a few pics from nytimes in review of 2008.
