2011

I've decided to be more diligent in a lot of things this year. Since January is over halfway over, I guess setting new years resolutions are out. I'll try and just focus more on goals I guess. Here goes..

1. .....

Well, I'll keep working on that i guess. In other news, Trey's knee surgery is tomorrow morning. I think I'm more nervous about it than he is haha! I'm sure he'll be fine and I trust God will watch over him and everything will go well.  I''m just glad he'll start to feel better! I'm taking off work a few days to be able to take care of him. I even bought some of his favorite foods for me to cook over the next few days!

So, alot's happened over the past month.

We had a great visit to Tennessee over the holidays! Saw tons of friends and family that we rarely see anymore being in Texas. It was good just to be home for awhile. We even had a white Christmas!! Its the only one I can remember. It was really a blessing to see.  We of course got way more than we deserved and were thankful the roads were clear enough for us to be able to go to all of our family gatherings! Trey's sister Catlyn turned 17... crazy! She's grown up so fast. We met her new boyfriend Andrew and liked him a lot. It's still weird thinking that she is dating, driving, taking the ACT, going to dances, and visiting colleges. Trey and I celebrated our 3 year anniversary. I can't believe we've been together for 8 years. Its been a great journey so far and I'm excited for the years to come. I went to my first Titan's game and we made it to some Pred's games, of course! This was the best holiday season I think we've ever had and I can't wait to see what the year holds.

Lily had a great Christmas too! She got to see Lacy, Trey's parent's dog. She made the 14 hour drive pretty good in her travel crate. I definitely think she was happy to be home and back to her normal routine of eating and sleeping. She really is the happiest dog alive! And I love her!

I miss everyone terribly, but it's nice to be back in a normal routine. I'll admit though, it wasn't the easiest thing going back to work after having over 2 weeks off! There are still some budget issues at work and we are only getting a month to month budget so things are a little uncertain at work. Hopefully everything will work out alright for all of us on my contract. I know it's in God's hands and a path will be provided. Trey's job is going great and he still loves it - which means we won't be moving back to Nashville for a while. But I keep reminding myself that this is a great opportunity for him that isn't available to everyone. I'm so proud of the work he's done and the experiences he's had. Working as a contractor for NASA is definitely an amazing experience.

2010 was amazing so 2011 has high standards to meet! Here's to a great year (or 11 months and 12 days in this case)!
