Well, I've been too busy to hardly get online, but now that it's christmas break and I am free from school until next monday...I can get on the internet! Woohoo!

Lots has happened...

Before david and I went to texas, Todd and Kristi moved out and in preparation for China...dispersed their things among friends and relatives. David and I ended up with their big items: their tv, futon, all their dvds, a keyboard piano, and lots of other stuff we really don't have room for. But we enjoy getting free stuff for a few months. However we will miss having todd and kristi around, bring me back a t-shirt! =)

I feel like a truck driver across country this past week. We drive the 2 days all the way to Lumberton, then to Houston to see Erin and Juli, then to Austin, then to Sweetwater, TX and then all the way back to Utah. I thinks it's safe to say we're not going anywhere for a while. At least not until we get some more audiobooks.

David just got a job at the MTC. He's teaching the senior missionaries. It's the perfect job for him and he loves it so far. Imagine teaching your Grandma Margie, that's what he does and it sounds hilarious. Their sincere and sweet, but set in their ways and some are hard of hearing. It comes with interesting challenges for them since senior missionaries only spend 1 week in the MTC! It's like a shotgun training before they head to the mission field. It's nice we work in the same place, we get to each lunch together in the MTC cafeteria....all you can eat.

This coming semester will probably kill me. I think I've taken on more than I can manage healthily but I'm gonna try it. Right now I have 17 credit hours, 20 hours of work at the MTC, and I'm a Teaching Assistant for an elementary ed class. Oh ya, and David and I are going to train for a half marathon. I think we might be crazy. But we have each other and I think we'll survive.

I wish we could have seen everyone while we were in texas! I think everyone should just come up to utah for skiing trip (or snowboarding for Chris). There is lots of fresh snow! We love ya'll!
