I put our blog address on our Christmas cards so that it would force me to start actually using and updating our blog. So here it goes, my first blog entry!
This has been an exciting and busy year for our little family.
Our family vacation was in January, we went to Hawaii and loved every minute of the warm weather. Carson LOVED rolling and playing in the sand and I am pretty sure his goal was to see how much he could take home with him.
In May Mersadie Hunter made her very grand entrance into this world. We are so grateful for the joy she brings to us. She is always smiling and loves life.
In July Mersadie was blessed and we were so glad to have family here for that event.
We took another family trip to the Oregon coast in October. It was windy and rainy but still a nice little get away. Then we got back and celebrated Carsons 3rd birthday. He is such a boy and makes us laugh and want to pull our hair out, all in the same day, just about everyday! I have been told by severeal people that it doesn't get any better as they get older so we are just learning to love and enjoy it.
The end of October Dustins brother got home from his mission and it was great to go Rigby and see him.
I started working at the hospital in September, I worked full time for 3 months during orientation and now I just work one day a week which is perfect. I get to keep my foot in the door and keep up on my nursing skills, but still feel like a stay at home mom! I work in the Progressive Care Unit, and Dustin works in the Intensive Care Unit, which is right next door. So that has been kind of fun.
Dustin has been applying to masters programs and has at least one interview in January, hopefully it will have one or two more, we are just waiting to here back. We are keeping our fingers crossed!
We are excited for Christmas, for some time off and time to see family and friends. Hopefully this will be a fun and easy way to keep in touch with people we haven't seen or talked to in a while.
Have a great holiday season and stay tuned for more post to come...
