Well it's officially 2009 (and yeah I know that I'm 6 days too late on this, but better late than never!) 2008 seemed to be a whirlwind of a year...both with excitment and devastation, but we've survived and we're pressing onward! Most of all, I can't believe that I will begin my nursing career in exactly a week from now. It's seems so surreal, like I've waited and waited for this to happen and it's finally here. I want to scream, "HOLD ON...I NEED MORE TIME!" but truth be told I've had plenty of time and I am ready to go. Ask me how I'm doing a month from now and we'll see if that's true:-)
Recap of our holidays...Christmas was good. Brady made out soooo great, that even I am amazed! He was opening up presents for 3 days straight. His favorite was all his Pokemon, cards, figures, tees, backpack, guidebooks, chapter books, playset/tower, etc....all Pokemon. He got this great Star Wars tent which was a favorite. It was on sale for $25 (now it's $32) and this thing is HUGE! It was great and he even slept in it Christmas night.
We celebrated New Years with all of our neighbors and played Wii until 1:00 a.m. My son is becomming a champion at Wii and getting a little obsessive. He won (against me...how sad!) 2 out of 3 games in bowling the other night and we've both finally made "professional" levels! We were so ecstatic that we couldn't stop jumping up and down screaming!
As for me, I kept my nose in a book for about the whole Christmas vacation. I've been obsessed with the Twilight Saga (due to Megan's recommendation) and I just couldn't put the books down. Now I've got others in my office reading the series and all we do is chat all the time about vampires:-) Who would have thought!
So....one more week of freedom....I better make this week count!!!!

Congratulations! I hope this doesn't mean that I won't be seeing you as much. You'll have to add Twilight to your reading list.

It was so nice to meet you last week! Glad you had a good Christmas. When I was a kit I had a bed tent (like a tent attached to a fitted sheet) that I pretty much thought was the coolest thing ever so I totally understand how pumped Brady must be about his Star Wars tent!
Good luck with work starting! A little stressful, but awesome still!
