Graduation and winter break

I did it. I finally got my Master's Degree. It felt so nice to be able to walk and have that moment where I could really say Wow! My goal is accomplished. I did it. I will admit now I don't quite know what to do but I haven't had too much trouble finding things to fill the time. I am really enjoying being primary chorister and coming up with ideas and games to teach the kids the songs. I also am finally on Winter Break which is good because I was really tired and not quite enjoying my job because of this. I have been scrapbooking this afternoon which is always one of my favorite activities. I am also enjoying spending time with Kaylie and look forward to when Erick gets Christmas Eve and Day off. I hope Christmas is good for all of you. Here are some pictures of my graduation and other things that have been going on with us.

Just thought you would like to know I passed my COMPS!!!!

An update because I feel like it

I figured I was grumpy today and maybe looking at some cute and happy pictures and thinking about fun stuff like Disneyland would make me happier. It seems to be working a bit. I had a rough day at work. Students were challenging and aides too. It probably doesn't help that I was out late last night at my favorite place (Disneyland). So I came home checked my Facebook and found out Grandma Jenson was in the hospital. Not much to make me happy. I called my mom to get an update and proceeded to vent to her about my day. (Thank goodness for Mom's!!!!) From there my day did start to get better. I found a frozen Lasagne in the fridge and decided to get vegetables for a salad so we are going to have a super yummy dinner tonight. I threw a load of laundry in. I then took Kaylie to the park where she really enjoyed sliding down the slide and figured out how to climb up to it on her own. Now I'm going to call Meghan as soon as she's off I hope I don't interrupt the basketball game because I always have uncanny timing and I don't think she has DVR. So here are some of the pictures that made me happier today.
