Old Women

So the other day Jordyne, Rachel and I were walking to class carrying on a nice conversation about a subject matter I can no longer remember, although it must have been something very mundane because all of a sudden Jordyne stops and says,"you know we are such old women." We laughed, but then over the next few days we started to realize that it was so true. As we returned home after class we walked into a house in which every surface was covered in puzzles. They are one of our favorite things to do while watching reruns of old shows...especially MASH! Actually it usually turns into Rachel and Jordyne working on the puzzles while I get fed up and move on to my cross stitching project. Then when 10:30 rolls around it's time for bed and boy are we tired. The next morning after a bowl of Raisin Bran we all make sure to take our airborne so as to not catch any viruses. Then to top it all off Jordyne and I were sitting in the commuters lounge at school and I found an abandoned news paper, so naturally I turn to the obituaries to see if I know anyone who has passed. And low and behold I did (an old man from work), though this is quite sad, Jordyne looks over and starts laughing hysterically because all of our worst fears were confirmed...we are so old women!!!

Hawaii...and Life

Here are some of the long awaited Hawaii pictures. The first picture is of Mom, Dad and me infront of this huge tree. The second picture is of Carrie and me boogie boarding. Carrie is the daugther of the other family we went with. The last picture is of the two families that went on the trip! It was such a great time, though it already feels like a lifetime ago. School started on the 12th of Jan. and I love being back in classes-though the homework is as un-fun as I remember. Other than that life keeps going on.

Christmas...Part 2

This is Noah and Me when we celebrated Christmas. For him it was his second time celebrating, for me it was the first. I was stuck in Portland for Christmas because of all the snow so I made it home when work and the weather allowed and we celebrated it a second time!!! I hope that the new year brings you all many joys!!!

I will post some Hawaii pictures a little later. It was such a shock to spend a week in 83 degree weather and then barely make it into Portland because the runways were frozen over.

Happy New Year!!!
