Finally an Update!

Well, I finally have downloaded my camara pictures onto my computer- haven't done that since September, so I thought I'd share a few pics and blog a little. It's been an eventful last 4 months, most noteably my mom had uterine cancer surgery and we are so thankful that the biopsy results of surrounding tissue came back negative, so no further treatment is needed for that. I thank God for that. I had a busy fall taking a class and working 3 days a week. My class is done and I'm looking forward to a little less hectic schedule now. Nick and Brynn have been loving school, and make our lives interesting. I don't have a lot of time to write right now, because Lauren wants me to come outside and help him with some yardwork. It is a beautiful sunny San Diego day in January. We went to the beach yesterday since it was in the 70's and had a marvelous time. Hope you are all well!
