What? This blog still exists?

It seems like forever since I have done a legit blog post... sorry about that. It's not that I haven't had the time, and I have definitely been thinking of things that I've wanted to say ... I just ... well ... I don't have an excuse. So, I will give you a quick update about our ever-so-exciting life! I guess I'll rewind back to Thanksgiving, since it has been about THAT long since I've posted much...

For Thanksgiving break, we went to my parents' house! It was really nice to spend so much time with my nephews, and the rest of my family! We were able to enjoy some great food, and take a much needed break from school.

This is Austin. One of the cutest and happiest kids ever. Also hilarious. He can put on a great show. A comedy. Not a drama ... we'll let Payton have that one. Of course though, walking around with a sword in your mouth is definitely what normal people do, right? That's what I thought.

Anyway, back to the updates ... as always, the break went by way WAY too quickly. There were so many papers, tests, projects and presentations due between Thanksgiving and finals week it was too hard to keep track ... just to add one more thing in the mix, I also created this presentation for Chem-Dry! Go check it out.

Now finals week. I had it pretty dang good this semester. Both of my finals were online, and they were both open book. I was done with everything by Monday, and I've just been trying to pass the time since then. Finals week wasn't quite as kind to Tyler though. He had tests in Microbiology and Physics on Monday (his two hardest tests), then two more tests on Thursday. He rocked them all though! I'm so proud of him.

Here we are, Friday of finals week, and I'm just at work waiting for time to pass. Is it just me, or does time creep by ever-so-slowly on Fridays from 1:30-5? It's just me (and other various lab consultants, I'm assuming)... my computer lab is pretty busy now though, I guess. I'm the only person here ... One more thing ... I saw this in the library on Monday. I thought it was pretty funny. I wonder what was supposed to be in there? If it were me, it would probably be a can of Coke...

What do you think should be in the case?

3 things that I have learned today...

1. It is really difficult to get up off the ground gracefully while wearing a skirt and heels.
2. Playing in nursery makes church go by a lot faster than sitting in Relief Society and Sunday School.
3. If you do what you are supposed to, like going to church and going the speed limit, you can maybe get all green lights (except for one) all the way from Logan to Brigham City. Maybe that was just luck though...

Like a little kid...

So, way back in elementary school when my mom would pack me a lunch every day, I would get a peanut butter and honey sandwich, cut diagonally. The other day, I made myself a peanut butter and honey sandwich and yep, you guessed it, I cut it in half. Just in case you were wondering, it made it taste a lot better too!

Sorry about the crappy picture, the lighting in my apartment doesn't help bad cell phone pictures...

By the way... I have now been cutting every sandwich that I make for Tyler. It's very manly, I know...it just is so fun! You should try it sometime.
