It has been a wild ride the last 8 months. Our dog had puppies and October-January is kind of a blur of vets, dog poop, and selling puppies. Now they are gone and all is back to normal.
Nothing else much going on. We are sitting here eating pizza and watching tv. A normal Saturday afternoon. It is 6:30 pm and i am still in my pjs. It is a beautiful thing! I cleaned, but mostly got to be lazy which I haven't done since school started in August....remember the puppy thing so I did not get to relax over Christmas break...... oh well.
We spent Christmas with his parents this year. It was a blast with all of this aunts and cousins and immediate family. We got the first day of our trip to spend with just the 5 Larry Johnsons. It was a very fun evening. I really wish Kimberly lived closer. I hate that she is all the way in Oklahoma. :( I love when we get to see her.
Tomorrow we are going to a first birthday party for our friends sweet baby girl. She is precious, very fiesty, but precious. It will be a tons of fun.
I am learning a lot this second year of marriage. We are going on 18 months of being married now. Each month, each day is different. It is a blast having my best friend around every day. I am very proud of him. He started school this week to do something to better the future of our famliy. It was a very important decision for us. it was something that needed to get done. I was a bit in an internal struggle because if he started school then we had to put off adoption for at least 2-3 more years, but if he did not go to school, then it would not set our family up to be the best we could be. Now, we get 3 more beautiful years together before we welcome sweet babies into our life. It is a precious gift God has given us to take the time together. I am so very proud of my husband for doing this.
I have been a little on the emotional side in the end of 2010. So with 2011, I vowed to have a better attitude and better outlook. The first Sunday of the new year, our pastor preached on the verse "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, and in all things give thanks to the Lord." It was pretty convicting because I had gotten into a habit of complaining about everything around me, mostly the dog poop. :) haha I realy am looking forward to 2011. 2010 was very rough and I hope to see some really great things happening in 2011.
