Finals are Over!

Finals week, for Cory and me, is over. I took my last final Wednesday evening and Cory took his last final early Wednesday morning. We are officially college graduates.Yeah!!!!

Jump On It!

So one of Naomi's little friends had a birthday party on Wednesday at Jump On It. For those who don't know what it is, it is a place that has some blow up things to play on and two areas that are just trampolines side-by-side. Naomi had so much fun. When we were on the trampolines, Naomi jumped laps around the outer parts of the trampolines. It was really funny, but she wouldn't stop moving so I couldn't get a picture.

But I was able to get a picture of her in one of the blow up things.

Oh Christmas Tree, Oh Christmas Tree

Since we have to be out of our apartment soon and we won't be here for Christmas, we didn't want to put up a tree in our apartment so we decided to decorate one at my parents' place.

Naomi had fun with the ornaments and thought it was hard to put them on the tree.

Thanksgiving Pics

So Thanksgiving was a lot of fun. We hung out with my family and slept over at my little sister's place so that our hubby's could play football together in the morning. I wish I had pictures of Cory playing since it was his first time playing football. He said he scored a couple touchdowns and got tackled more than doing the tackling.

But here are the pictures I have from over Thanksgiving break.

Happy Thanksgiving!

I know Thanksgiving is tomorrow, but I doubt I will get on tomorrow and I want to post this before Thanksgiving. I've seen a lot of people write what they are thankful for and I feel that I should share what I am thankful for. First I am thankful for my husband and my baby girl. They support me in all I do and Naomi reminds us that we should really enjoy life. Second I am thankful for all of my family: siblings, parents, grandparents, and all my in-laws. We love you all. Third, I am thankful for our friends, both old and new. Our friends have helped us during tough times, so thank you. Fourth, I am thankful that Cory and I graduate in December. It has been a long, tough road, but we have finally made it. We are still waiting on jobs, but as soon as we get a job then that will be on this list too. Finally, I am thankful for the gospel and my testimony. I have definitely felt my Savior's love for me and have felt His hand in our life. Without this knowledge I would not be here today.

So before Thanksgiving is past us, sit down and think about what you are thankful for. It really puts you in the spirit of the holiday.

Naomi's Independence

Naomi is growing up way too fast. Her personality is really shining. She is pretty creative and smart. Her favorite food right now is pizza. She's been asking for pizza to eat and we decided that we'd get it for lunch. After I finished my piece, I decided I wanted some apple sauce. Naomi started asking for some too, so I tried giving her a spoonful but she wouldn't take it. It took me second to realize that she wanted the applesauce on her pizza. I hesitated, but Cory insisted that we should let her creative mind free, so I put some on her pizza and she ate it. After she took a bite, she'd ask for more. She ate a whole piece of pizza that way. It's funny the things kids want to do.

Also Naomi likes to line things up. Today she pulled all the DVD boxes off the shelf and lined them up side by side across the living room. I couldn't find my camera, but I'm sure she'll do it again and then I'll have a picture for you to see.
