thank goodness for moments of fresh air

We have survived another week and are counting down the days until we are completely done with school all together.  Before I am finished I have 5 papers, a project, and 4 finals. . . . December 19th I will be a whole new woman!  Sam on the other hand has 4 finals, approaching rather quickly, and they are much harder than mine, who seriously takes general chemistry and organic chemistry back to back.  He's been working hard to get a jump start on studying to his back to back finals on December 15 and 16.  But this post wasn't supposed to be about finals.  It was supposed to be about everything but finals... 

So on Saturday morning, I was searching the internet for a particular game to give the families I nanny.  I was searching on Target online and it'll tell you what store whatever you want is available in.  It said it was available at Fort Union, I called to check and Sam told me to see if they had Wii Fits too.  And they actually did!  This is the one thing we really wanted to get, and hadn't been able to find.  We launched out of bed and got ready to make it to Target in about 40 minutes and secured our very own wii fit.  We are so excited to open it up on Christmas day, just in time to burn off all the holiday goodies.  But we are trying to forget that we bought one so unwrapping it will be a surprise.. please help by not talking about it.  thanks. 

After having such a successful shopping morning we decided to buy our very own Christmas tree.  We had a very few options of what kind of tree would actually fit in our tiny little living room.  We were searching for a tall and skinny tree and found one that is just perfect!.  

sam's so strong!!! 

So come on over and check out our fully decorated tree and hang out.... after Dec. 19th!

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
