That's right, I'm finally updating our blog. I have finished my first year of grad school in special education and I have one more semester to go. My classes are really helpful and practical, but this last semester I had 18 credits, which meant that I was going to class 4 nights a week from 4:30-8 or 9 at night. Also, I changed jobs in August and now I'm teaching resource for grades 4-6 at Fox Hills Elementary in Granite School District. I work with some awesome people and I have the most amazing kids. I was a little scared to work with the upper grades at first, but they are so much fun and not nearly as sassy as I had imagined. This next semester I am taking way fewer classes and finishing up my graduate project and TAing for a class, so it should be a little more relaxed than last semester. Taylor is in his third year of med school and so he is no longer taking classes, but he is doing rotations in the hospital and he really likes it and doesn't complain even when he has to be at the hospital at 4am.
Our kitties are still as sweet and playful and snuggly as ever. Brother loves walking around in the snow (it's almost 1 kitty deep in our backyard right now) and Sis is currently sitting in her favorite place, my lap. We had a lot of fun at my parents this Christmas and took a cruise to Mexico together. This week we are finishing up some projects around the house, but mostly just enjoying having absolutely nothing to do for the first time in a long time. I have been crocheting and rewatching some of my favorite movies. Taylor is reading Eclipse and I think it's pretty safe to say that he has a bit of a mancrush on Jacob.
We hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas and have a happy new year!

glad for the update! Sounds like you are doing well
I think I just died of shock! You updated your blog! Sounds like you guys are doing great! How wonderful that you are both almost done! Good luck with the last/easier semester. I totally wish we could get together and catch up. Keep on updating!
You're alive! Glad to hear/see it. You have been so busy. I'm glad it's slowing down for you a little bit now. And I'm glad you had fun with your fam this Christmas. And in Mexico. I'm jealous. Except I just watched a show about a family who got kidnapped in Mexico and now I'm afraid to go there.
