Theme of my life...
Why do we fall? So we might learn to pick ourselves up.

Our Own Little Christmas Miracle!
Back in September I scheduled my quarterly appointment for botox injections for the 27th of December. (Couldn't miss the chance to get one more medical procedure done before the end of the year). I waited to until mid-Dec to call MPR to let her know that if I felt up to it I'd like to swing by and say hello for a bit before heading back to Idaho. Knowing this would be a quick day trip to SLC I wasn't sure if I'd even catch her. Imagine my surprise and delight when she called back to tell me that she'd be around and on that very day the Dukes, Baileys, and Jensens would also be in SLC!
PA Christmas reunion!!!
While it was a short reunion, it was nonetheless a miracle. Possibly the best present of the season. I sure love all of these folks and especially the two newest additions to the ever growing group! M and B are not too sure if we are as cool as we all believe ourselves to be.
Cannot wait until we have reunion 2013!
PS...Mia has a new favorite person. :) I almost stole her from AR and MPR.

House Update: Moving In!!!
And everyone thought I was building in the "big city"? From my kitchen window it appears I live in the country...big dirt piles and hay stacks.
My Christmas decor, wrapped presents!
Beautiful sunsets from my kitchen window too
These pictures are all week 1 of moving in, I'll post more as I get settled. Thanks to everyone who helped move me! Especially Dadio, Mama Berry, Matty, and JR.
