Well, school is done for the semester. FINALLY! I am happy to say that I passed all of my classes… I didn’t get all of the grades that I wanted, but I did well enough to continue on. On the 23rd Chris and I had our 10 year anniversary. The Friday before Becca and Josh and my parents held a surprise anniversary party that was so fun! One of our gifts was a FANTASUITE from Josh and Becca 
This was the first room which was the “Outer Space” room. It had a giant space pod bed and an in room hot tub, but it lacked a working heater, toilet seat, and draining sink. What it lacked in heat it made up for with snow blowing into the room through a window. We dealt with it for awhile, but finally Josh and Becca (who had come to have dinner with us) grew tired of my complaining and got our room switched to the “Arabian Nights” room 
That room was SO much better! It had heat and a fun circular bed and a (cleaner) hot tub! Josh and Becca hung out with us and played cards and took a dip in the hot tub! All in all it was a fabulous anniversary and thanks to my Mom and Dad for keeping the kids for TWO nights… I’ve never been away from them that long, but it was really nice!
Two days later came Christmas. The kids were thrilled with all of their presents. Audrey got her ears pierced a few weeks ago for her Christmas present from us and Michael got a digital camera. From grandma and grandpa Staley Michael got a air hockey table which he was THRILLED with! We spent the day at my parents house playing games and air hockey! Even Uncle Ben was able to spend some time on Christmas with us!
So now we wait for New Years Eve which we always spend with the Thraps. It has been so nice to be off from school and I even had some time to SCRAPBOOK!!!
