Mr. Smarty Pants

He's a handsome little devil!
It's official! Jordan graduated from UofW on Friday, December 2nd. We were all so, so proud of him! He has worked so hard at school, and it definitely paid off. He was one of the few in his class that graduated cum laude. He is definitely Mr. Smarty Pants. I'm so grateful for Jordan and how hard he worked for his degree. He always put forth his very best. He never slacked on any assignment or homework. Even when I would try to convince him it's ok if you don't get 100% on every single assignment, he would take the time to do it right. It's not easy going to school, working, and having a pretty stressful calling, but he never complained. He's a stud and I just thought everyone should know! :)

We're Alive!!

I've been taking a break from blogging. Not because we haven't had things to blog about (we have been busy little bees lately) but simply because I'm lazy. There, I said it. I'm going to start doing better. It's my new year's resolution started a month early.
We have had an exciting last few months. Here's a break down of what we've been up to:
  • Went to Utah for one of my best friends wedding.
  • Got to love and kiss on some of the cutest nephews in the world.
  • Celebrated Halloween by having only one trick-or-treater who was possibly the cutest little monkey we have ever seen. Too bad we didn't have any candy to give him!
  • Made a quick trip to Arizona for my sisters baby shower, where I got to see some of the other cutest nephews ever.
  • Planned a Ward Talent show with the young women.
  • Tried to teach the young women how to do a hand jive.....I should never be a teacher.
  • Had an awesome Thanksgiving with the in-laws.
  • Had a great family christams party in the woods with the in-laws.

Of course I didn't get any pictures of any of these great things. I'm a slacker. It's also one of my new year's resolutions to start taking more pictures. Lucky for me we have some pretty big events just around the corner that will help me in my resolution endeavors. Some of these events include :

  • Jordan graduating from college.
  • Our ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY in T-minus 16 days.
  • A journey to Arizona for a Hall family Christmas extravaganza!

Not to mention all the other lovely things that go on during the Christmas season. So, you better all get ready for some seriously exciting new posts.....or don't. Whatever. :)
