End of 2008!!

I was worried about finding a job during the holidays. Nothing seemed to spark my interest, so I found a holiday/temporary job at JcPenney's. It's not an ideal job and my feet finally got used to the hurt...but money is money...as long as your use moral tactics to earn it. ;) haha! That job ended and all of the family came in for the holidays. I had so much fun with everyone and the house was complete noise until the kids went down for bed. I take that back. When Deidre, me, Whitney and Eric played monopoly...things got a little crazy! Now my new permanent job is plasma donor!! haha. Mom really loves that idea.


Victor sent me my Christmas present! I was so excited and had to wait a week to open it. I was a good girl and waiting until Christmas Eve to open it up. He sent me pictures of us that I have been wanting since we met. I will have to scan them and then post some. They are so cute and that was my favorite/most sentimental gift this year. He came back from Guatemala and visited me. I had butterflies for at least a few hours before I went to pick him up! I felt like a little girl in a candy store. I miss him so much when he is away. We had a great weekend together and it's always hard saying goodbye to him.


We were babysitting Emma and Davis for a few hours. I thought I was a good entertainer, but Emma liked my makeup more than my building blocks. Here are some pictures to prove that she really is an artist.



I didn't get my New Year's kiss this year like I was hoping for, but I did have fun with some friends. We went out to dinner, watched a movie on a big projector at Luke's school that he works at, and then went to the BSU student union building for a bit to hang out at the dance for the count down. It was a good 2008 year now that I think about it. There were so many ups and downs, especially with school, relationships, and family. It's kinda exciting to start 2009 with a clean slate. I am making a few goals right now. I try to make at least 3 goals each year: 1 spiritual, 1 physical, and 1 academic/student loans/debt. :) Happy 2009!!

Oh..and P.S.!!! When Victor came into town on Friday we went to a couple of clubs. I loved dancing with him! We had a great time taking our friend out for her 21st birthday.

    I had so much fun playing monopoly that night! I didn't know what to think when Eric wanted to keep playing, he hates games! You are a party animal!! Looks like you and Victor had a lot of fun together! Wish we could have been there to put on makeup too :)
