Only 3 Weeks to Go!

Can you believe my hubby will be done with classes in 3 weeks??? Me neither!! He has one final week, and then we are off to San Diego, CA for Christmas!! whooo- who!! Anyone else been there? I am looking forward to a little time with just my hubby, that will be so nice.

Ryan took a job as a Loan Analyst at Bremer Bank, and it is considered an intern because of the length of the position. So far he is working only one day a week to get through the orientation period and then starts full time in the New Year. As of now we haven't discussed too much about whether or when we are moving so as for now we are staying put (with a possible move in January).

Had a nice visit up at the farm this past weekend. Had a very nice Thanksgiving day, with Ryan's folks, Merrilee and her friend Bow whan (Celina) from China. Friday Celina cooked us a real authentic Chinese meal, it was very tasty !! Saturday Lori, Pete, and Titus came out to the farm, and Jed, Karena and the kids came too, we celebrated Faith's birthday with Lefsa and Steak - mmm!! It was fun to see all the kids playing around, Emma is about the same height as her cousins who are a year old. She's alittle shrimp :) Emma also was sick all week and was a little more herself come Sat. just in time for the birthday party. Went to church SUnday and home Sunday night after a very long game of Super Scrabble played with 3 teams. But we had great company and a fun time! That was what was important, and not that it took 4 hours to play :)

I'm planning to put up our fake Christmas tree today with Emma, that should be fun to do together. Its only a four footer, so shouldn't take that long. I want her to enjoy some Christmas lights and music :)

Thanks for the encouragement ladies, I really appreciate it. I'm wondering if its a bit of hormones, but not sure. I have my ultrasound Monday, so I'm looking forward to that.

Have a great week.

Kendra, I sure miss the snow!! (and snowshoeing!) my friends and familiy laugh at me when i talk about my life in the north. There is hardly any snow down here and its windy and cold-brr!!!

Thanks for the encouragement ladies, I really really really appreiciate it. Its hard to keep high spirits sometimes.

Super Scrabble is actually scrabble with a bigger board and more tiles. Its fun if played by only a few players, and a little more time to play. You have quadruple letters spots and quad. word spots. I like it, but Ryan and I are scrabble finatics!! :)

Hi Iris. I would love to check our your page! Remind me again of your page or email address. HOpe you can raise enough funds for your house. I hope language study is going well. I would love to learn the language fluently, kind of hard when I live in Scandinavian country - hehe, not too many natives here.
