Random :)

So this is way random...

But for some reason I think it is so fun to look at people & find their celebrity look alikes!

Crazy?? Probably... but I find myself doing this a lot at work with my patients.. haha.

And let me tell ya I have found some super close matches!!

So here are some celeb's i've been told I look like:

Audrey Hepburn

Anne Hathaway

Rachel Leigh Cook

(people usually just say the girl from She's All That. haha)

Here are some that I think look like Mike:

Matthew Lawrence

Mark Wahlberg

Like I said... way random. But what I can I say?! I live for random :)

Happy New Years!!!

Week in Recap

So Mike & I went to the lights as told before ... and we did NOT take enough pictures!!!

I even ran into my friend Karyn and did I take a picture!?... no! How dumb. ha ha

Here is the one shot we managed:

Mike was kinda silly & just wore a jacket so he got quite cold.. had to sport my cute gloves.

He really thought that was fun :)

So I really suck at wrapping presents and had to take a bunch of pictures of Mike wrapping because I thought it was so cute... ha ha.

We had a great Christmas! (did I get pictures.. NO!)

Mike spent all of Christmas Eve with my family, including a trip to see my little sister Maddy & Garcia grandparents. Of course they loved him!! Who couldn't!?

Talking football with the guys always seems to win them over.... ha ha

Christmas morning we spent with our own families & then I met up with the King's for Christmas dinner. It was fun to meet more of Mike's family.

His family is so small in comparison to mine... quite a different Christmas scene for me.

And to finish off the week my family went to Kiley's farewell!! My cute cousin Kiley will be serving in the Fortworth, Texas mission. Those Texans are sure lucky to have her coming!!

Such a fun week :) this break has been the best!!!

I am gonna head back to school next week kicking & screaming...

SO I am sure gonna try & enjoy this last week of bliss! My parents are going to Jamaica for their 20yr wedding anniversary & I will be watching the kids... should be pretty fun around here. ha ha

Temple lights TONIGHT!

Temple lights TONIGHT!! With this cute face & his friends :)

[p.s. this is Mike's angry bird face. the latest craze....

we have this thing about getting obsessed with games]

more pics to come! Happy Monday :)

Put in Perspective

I absolutely love this time of year!! Well, everything but the snow... but we haven't had to really worry about that part yet so it has been great :)

So as I was looking online at gift ideas for those I still need to buy for and at some things I have been hoping to get for Christmas, I started reading some blog posts from friends and came across the blog that never fails to bring a smile to my face or tears to my eyes... Snapshot

This amazing woman, Heather, has been living in Africa to help start out a school for Mothers Without Borders. Her last post humbled me so much and made me SO grateful for all the things I have & of course made me feel guilty about the things I was asking for.

I know people talk about this subject a lot, having something make them realize the true meaning of Christmas & what really matters, but this REALLY hit me. I have not been able to think about anything else for days and keep praying to come up with solutions to make a difference.

You have to read Heather's blog to understand, and I ask you to please! It is really heavy, sad stuff but I promise you, you can't read her blog and not be grateful and inspired to have a more grateful heart.

It's my goal to find a way to raise some money for those little babies.

That is all I really want for Christmas.

Freedom!!!

I am SO excited that I have completed one semester of nursing school!! :) woohoo!

I'm that much closer to being done!!

SUCH a good feeling.

And for now... I am going to completely enjoy my 3 weeks of absolute freedom from school!!

I cannot even begin to explain how ecstatic that makes me!!

So hopefully I do some fun things to share!!

Happy Holidays everybody!!
