North to Alaska



























Home for the Holidays!
We flew up on Saturday, amazingly smooth... no missed or delayed flights! And got in late Saturday night. Then we spent Sunday and Monday with Lucas' family relaxing, eating, playing pool, and planning Rachel's wedding. LOTS of fun! Then on Tuesday we headed down to Kenai to spend the next couple of days with my family. Before we left Anchorage we stopped by the Alaska Wild berry Company to pick up a few belated Christmas gifts and had a little fun with the bears.... (see pictures below) So far in here Kenai there has been lots of good food, Catan, and good company. There is something so comforting about being in the house I grew up in with all of my immediate family close. Here are a couple of pictures....

Christmas Festivities



This last weekend we went to our friends, the Morgans', Christmas party. There was lots of good food, wine, and company! There was a white elephant gift exchange... guess what I got? A SNUGGIE!!! Oh my gosh I just about died laughing!

Then on Saturday night I went out with the hockey ladies! We had Italian... yum! This week I have 2 quizzes, an extra credit assignment, a test, and two article reviews to do. Ugh. 3 more days and then I get a 2 week break! And on Saturday we head home for the holidays!

In other exciting news, as of last Sunday I am officially a 3rd year, and I graduate in 363 days!!! Woo-hoo!
