This week

I haven't posted in a while so I thought I needed to do an update. I'm in my last semester and doing my student teaching in a 3rd grade class. Matt is a research assistant and got to go to a conference in AZ last weekend and had a great time. We are loving being married and just celebrated 8 months on Friday the 13th just like when we were married. :)

We got a vacuum and Matt LOVES the removable filter and being able to see our floors get clean.

We got cupcakes from the cocoa bean to celebrate our 8 months.( phat monkey-pb,chocolate and bananas and luscious lemon blueberry)

My scarf that I got from Matt's mom that I love!!!

Allie came to visit and this was the only picture I took- I loved having her here!

Matt wearing the shirt my parents got him for Christmas!

We had a salad tonight for dinner and it was so good!- Matt loved the presentation I did. 

East Coast Christmas

This Christmas Matt and I spent it with the Starlipers in Virginia. This was my first Christmas away from home and I had a great time! I loved being able to get to know my brothers better and being around Matt's parents. 

Highlights:

• We were able to go to our friends Jeff and April's Wedding and had a great time celebrating with them and Matt enjoyed being a groom's men and getting a nice red tie!
• Holly and Scott's open house.
• Crazy Talk concert
• Lights at the DC temple
• Celebrating Christmas!
• Seeing a really decorated Christmas tree!

 The cell phone case I just made tonight!

Just buy a clear case and pick your favorite scrape book paper trace phone and insert! I'm thinking of using a photograph for my next one- I love that you can personalize your case however you want.
