One month down

I've not written for a month or so, so I thought i'd just jot down a little note real quick for those who glance at our blog.
January was a fun month for us and so far we're enjoying February.
This week will be uniquely fun cause we're getting free dinner from cafe rio twice! Tonight at a new homes Q&A with the owner of a large home building company and Friday for our wards Valentines dinner. I'm just happy that I don't have to cook dinner, it's fun but takes so much time!
Chad had been looking for jobs still and even had an interview last week. He's still hanging in there at 3-form for now though.
I think he's getting excited for this presidents day weekend- he and a couple of his brothers are planning on going skiing. It'll be his first trip this winter and is sure to be a day full of fun and good stories afterwards.
I am getting into the thick of my classes. I had my first test this morning and have had several assignments hanging over my head. One assigment I was able to complete last week with the great help of my cute nephews. My nephews were the best subjects for my observation lab- we had so much fun runnin and jumpin around!
I am enjoying my classes generally and am pretty motivated to do well since I can see the light at the end of the tunnel! I was talking to one of my friends from the ward (who is graduating this semester)as we were waiting for our shuttle to take us home after class, and we agreed that May cannot come soon enough. The time is already seeming to drag. But I am looking forward to the second session of classes, for then I get to start my swimming class which i can't get enough of. I tell you what, with weight training and swimming combined in the next couple months I don't know how I'm going to get by without my moms homemade bread and costco whole milk. It seems like thats all i ate when i was swimmin in highschool.
So my note has turned out longer than planned but thats good. To sum up we're doing wonderfully, absolutely loving the snow that's falling outside right now, and we're enjoying each day as it comes!
