Hard to believe I didn't write at all in December, and January 2013 is over already!
So much has happened, and yet nothing seems different!!
Lets start with an overview of the holidays!
Christmas was good. We celebrated with my moms side of the family on Christmas Eve. My dads parents also came along. It was a low key evening for all. After my brother took my niece back to her mother I had to go play Santa's helper and wrap Christmas Gifts. After we finished that Matt and I headed to Church before heading home.
Christmas morning was more like Christmas at lunchtime! I think we slept until 11am. Matt did not want to get up, but he eventually did! We exchanged gifts, and then got ready to go visit the Criado family! His Aunt Cindy and Uncle Bruce always have Christmas Day, so we headed there for a couple of hours. When we left the Criado's we headed to Stahlstown to stop at Grandma and Pappy Monticue's to round out our Christmas visiting!!
Matt was able to get some work done around the house while on break from school! He finally got the cooktop installed and running in the kitchen!! We can cook now!!!!
Also in the month of December Alex moved his business down inside Laurel Valley Hardware! What an experience that was. Everything looks great now, but getting there was quite a challenge!!
We rang in the New Year with the Dumnich family playing Wii games and Hunter singing us his rock star songs!!
January started much better than last year, and lets hope 2013 stays that way!!
Matt started back to school, he will graduate in December 2013 FINALLY!!!!!! This semester he finally got around to taking all of his elective classes. His choices are, naturally, all over the board. He has Astronomy, Archeology, and the Bible as Literature, in addition to one engineering class.
Matt should only have to take two classes in the summer and two in the fall then before he GRADUATES!! I really didn't think he would ever to get to the point of earning his bachelors, but it is so close!!
January was a calm month full of snow and work!! My anxiety about driving in the snow is easing although I'm still not used to it!! But living on the top of the Mountain we get hammered and they never clear the roads!!! Blah!!
February is in full swing and moving right along......
