long overdue update

oops! i've been so absent from blogworld with the job transition/holiday time, and each time i've sat down to write i haven't had anything to say!

quick recap:
  • andrew took a business trip to houston and left me here all alone to take care of our children
  • lillie began acting out in her father's absence (running away, trying to eat the neighbor's bunny, eating my chocolate chip cookies)
  • there is a goat living in our neighborhood
  • andrew returned (thank the Lord!)
  • i finished eoc testing and with it my job as a teacher
  • we didn't give each other christmas presents in observance of financial stewardship
  • christmas at my parents' house
  • christmas dinner at andrew's mom's house
  • christmas emergency tech at oberlin for a dog with chocolate toxicity
  • covered kim's shifts at oberlin for the two days after christmas
  • hung out with chloe (the now indoor dane)
  • spent wonderful time with my wonderful husband
  • i finally grouted the kitchen floor

and here are some random pics from along the journey:
picnic dinner for date night.she's getting biiiiig! a crazy man has his dog riding on the back of his motorcycle while driving 70mph on I-40. no joke. chloe got a fun toy from gradma for christmas... and almost pulled me off the couch.i made funny faces at andrew :-)

sorry for the brief update, but i have no idea how else to do that except write a novel on it all! speaking of which, i read a great one called what a girl wants by kristin billerbeck. it's a hilarious piece of christian chick-lit that you should definitely read!
