The Melting Pot

Steven and I celebrated our 4 Year Anniversary early this year since he had to fly back to LA. Once again we went out to The Melting Pot. It is such a fun place with super good food! We always have a great time when we go.



Well Steven is back in LA now and school starts back up this Monday. I am so not ready to be busy and stressed out yet...I wish I had at least one more week to relax. Oh well.

Happy New Year everyone!

Trip to Columbia and Nat's 21st Birthday

Steven and I took a day trip to Columbia to visit all of our old favorite places. We were able to check out the new student center. It is so awesome I wish it could have been finished before I graduated. We had a lot of fun reminiscing and driving by our old apartments.



Natalie celebrated her 21st birthday Wednesday night up at the Lumiere casino on The Landing. It was a crazy time and we had a lot of fun.

3rd Annual Christmas Joy

Well last night the Hahns and Greens reunited for their 3rd Annual Christmas/Chocolate Making Party! They keep getting crazier and crazier every year! We had so much fun eating Christmas cookies, drinking hot chocolate and making chocolate. I am so glad we have made this a tradition. It is so nice to all get together for some holiday cheer!

I Need a Break...

I can't wait for school to be over for the semester! I need a break from homework and studying. This is the first year I will be working throughout my Christmas break. It is a little sad to me because no one else in my family will be working for like two weeks or more. Work isn't too bad I guess. I still really enjoy working with the babies. I hope everyone else is enjoying the holiday season.

Here is a picture of my Pumpkin listening for Santa...

A Long Semester...

It has been a long semester. School and work occupies most of my time now. I still really enjoy my job especially now that I am working with the infants. Steve has been in LA since October 3rd. It has been hard but I am keeping myself busy. Before he left we planned a fun filled day. We went out to breakfast and then to sculpture park. It was nice. I miss him lots!



I got a new little friend to keep me company. She is a cute little hamster named Pumpkin. I have become very OCD about the cleanliness of her cage. I am sure she is the healthiest hamster EVER! I love her so much! I still hang out with my friends from work. Having girls nights with them has helped keep my mind off of missing Steve too much.



I finally found out that he is able to come home for Thanksgiving. He is flying in today and gets to stay the whole week. I am really excited to see him tonight! I feel like it has been forever, but really it has only been about 2 months.

Halloween was splendid. I wish Steven could have been in town for it though. I had some of my work friends over for Halloween. It was lots of fun! I always love dressing up for Halloween. This year I was Alice in Wonderland. Steven did send me some beautiful flowers for Halloween along with some Chocolate covered strawberries!







Well I am looking forward for the Thanksgiving holiday. I get Thursday and Friday off of work. I need a four day weekend that's for sure! Hope everyone is having a fabulous week. I know I am ;)

School has Begun

Summer was fun but now it is back to school! Along with school this year I am keeping my job at Creative Expressions! I really do love my job and the people I work with! We recently had a Staff Development day and it was a Hawaiian theme! It was lots of fun! I do a lot with the girls from work. Recently we organized a fundraiser for a little boy in my friend's 2 year old class who was recently diagnosed with Leukemia. We got together and made orange and green ribbons for Leukemia Awareness and are giving them away to people who donate a dollar or more. We have collected lots of money so far! :)




Also this past week was Steven's birthday. I gave Steven a big bucket of snacks, drinks and other goodies for his road trip to LA in a few weeks. I also took him out to dinner. We went to Fuji Sushi! It was super yummy!



Other than that I have just been enjoying the nice weather when I am not in work or doing homework. I hope everyone has had a great summer and are easily getting back into the busy school/work lifestyle!
