for lindsey
it's about freakin' time... i'm sure these are the words going through your cute little head right now, but you just need to calm down, okay? i do love you, so here you are.
erg.... what to tell you about our life as of the last time i posted, which i don't remember when that was so i will just tell you what i think is needed for you to know we are happy, alive and well.
we work our minds off... Kyle still has his booty and my butt is the same, our minds, our sanity however is what suffers as we work at the glorious Wats. to some of you, this is a good sign, us working hard and being grown ups, but i will have you know that we officially hate it. proof that we are alive. the only upside is that the people that we work with are awesome. downside to that... it's a call center so we can't exactly chat much with the people we like, just with the one's that hate our guts.
Christmas was wonderful... we went to Washington for a week and stayed with Carrie and her wonderful family and their sweet crib. it was fun to see the family again. Kyle and i got Dave from the 'rents, and begrudgingly i started to read one of the books and......... i have learned some interesting things. there i said it. kyle and i are pretty good though and on the right track, we just make next to nothing, but Dave will be handy and teach us a thing or two before we die. Dave Ramsey in case someone is wondering.... he's a financial guru. proof that we are well. also proof.... we havn't called you with some morbid news or anything, so if you are worried... probably you shouldn't be.
i took our Christmas pictures and we mailed out our favorites and yes that is a real life huge chunk of heart shaped snow that kyle invented and made me very happy. i also took KC and Shanes Christmas pictures, they turned out really cute, most likely because they are cute.
our apartment right at this very minute looks like a "pig stye", a "disaster" or, if you rather "a tornado hit it"... moms take your pick. proof that we are happy. :) also proof... Kyle has a snowboarding "class". how do you like that? once a week he goes up to Targhee all day. jealous? yes, as a matter of fact i am, especially since i have to work at Wats on thursdays. two thumbs down. but we did get the hubby a helmet to protect his noggin and he won't stop trying it on. he's like the 6 year old who got a superman costume for halloween and still hasn't taken it off yet. i'm glad he likes it though, that means he'll wear it.
New Years Eve was cold and fun. we chilled with Josh and Trista (we like them) playing ping pong and phase 10. watched the ball drop, which i don't think i will ever understand the point of that, but it was fun. and the best part was trista's homemade bread and the martinellis we had to bring in the new year. proof for the unbelievers that we have friends.
this picture didn't make it to the mailbox, but it was one of my favorites. proof that i have self control.
aaand my sister called me when she got our card and decided to tell us that we will have beautiful babies... that made me happy. proof that i take good pictures. i miss my sisters. and my brothers. and my mom and dad. and other people too, but mostly them.

my winter wreath
My crafty friend KC and I have decided that after our successful creation of our fall wreaths that there would be many more seasonal wreaths to be made. This season is winter, snow, Christmas, and New Year season. So we decided to take on the ornament wreath as our next project, which turns out to be super simple to make and guaranteed to look fabulously festive. All you do is get a wire hanger and bend it into a circle, twist apart the top, hot glue the tops of the ornaments on so they don't come apart, and string on the ornaments! Perfect.
Also, I cut out paper snowflakes during work at opinionology the other day to prevent me from cutting myself (joke, sorta :)) and that got me in a festive mood yesterday when I found them in my coat pocket so I decided to decorate the little I could in our tiny apartment. I put up the paper snowflakes.
Then I remembered that I had a nativity set and dug it from a box in storage and put that out on the bookshelf.
And strung some candycanes on a red ribbon above our window. It looks a bit more Christmasy now, but I wish we had room to put up a tree... now that would be magical!
