So I realized that it has been way too long since the last time that I posted on my blog. So here goes... This may take a while.
So soon after the last time I posted Shaun Meng and I tore out our entire kitchen. It was so much fun working with Shaun. I will not go into details (check out Tammy's blog for those) but it has been a nightmare since that day. We still do not have a functioning kitchen. Tonight we went to the Mengs and made dinner at their house since we don't have our oven yet. I won't say any more or else this post will all be about the anger I feel towards the contractor who is almost finished with the cabinets.
However, we have had a great time since Dec. 10 as well. We went to AZ this year for Christmas. It was so much fun. It was great to have my brother and 4 of my 5 sisters for christmas. We even got to have Bridget (Welch) and her family at home to open presents with. I find Christmas so much more enjoyable when there are young kids opening presents. Their faces just light up. Santa came to Tammy and I both. We had a great Christmas.
We came back to Rexburg to find a snow pile taller than our car blocking our driveway! Luckily there was a guy with a backhoe clearing a driveway next door so we hired him to clear ours too. New years was spent with the Mengs. We had a great time.
Since then school has started. I have had my internship waived since I was not able to find one in such short notice. My internship that I had planned with a dental office was not approved so I had one month (with Christmas in the middle) to find a new internship. I applied everywhere but no one wanted someone that would only be there for a few months. So, the business department was great and waived it for me. So now I am taking histology and Spanish 1. We have decided to go to UNLV for dental school and UNLV requires all their dental students to take Spanish during dental school so I though that I would get a little head start. We are so excited to be closer to all of our family!
Tammy is now in her 37th week of pregnancy. On Jan. 22 Gideon will be considered full term. Any time now he could be born! We are so excited to welcome him into our family. We can't say that we "know" how much he is going to change our lives, but we have seen how children have changed the lives of family and friends so we have a little idea. Either way, we are so excited and willing to change in any way for him.
This week we are going to put our house back together and get our nursery ready. School is going great and is really easy since I only have 8 credits. Tammy is doing great. She is getting more and more uncomfortable, but loves life none the less. She is the perfect wife.
