Oh wow. I am so behind on blogging, but life has been crazy! The really good kind of crazy, but crazy none the less. Christmas and New Year's were wonderful as usual! Jeff and I have loved that part of being students...the go-home-for-3-weeks-every-Christmas part and we will miss having that break now that we have entered the adult world of pay checks and yard work:) It has been an amazing year so far, even with the year beginning with us saying good-bye to Grandma DeLynn (Grandma Merlyn's mother). She passed away on January 1st and I am so grateful for the knowledge I have of eternal families. I know her reunion with her husband had to be amazing after so many years apart. We love her and will miss her. I also was able to go to New York with my mother-in-law, sister-in-law and our good friend Tawni to visit Jeff's sister Kristi...it was so much fun!! We saw Newsies on Broadway and just took in the New York sights. We were also able to visit Philadelphia and see the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall. I wish I could explain the spirit I felt as I stood in the rooms where the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence were debated, written and signed. I am so grateful for those amazing, God-fearing men. I would have to say the two biggest highlights of this year so far were definitely my Little Miss turning 5 and Jeff graduating with his degree in Veterinary Medicine from Washington State University!!! I cannot explain how proud I am of Jeff. He is one amazing, hard-working man and I could go on and on...but I will save that for his graduation post:) Here are some pictures of the year so far...it's turning out to be a great one!
