Last night we had a great dinner out. It was so nice to spend time together, especially on a weekday. Kerri was called ma'am over and over again by our server and Brandon loved his Chicken and Dumplins. We decided that Cracker Barrel is so great because it is not that expensive, especially since they give you so much food.
We are still very busy, and sometimes it feels like we are going about 100 miles per hour, but we are getting into a groove. Kerri makes smoothies for us every morning, and Brandon cleans it up after she has left. Also, when it snows Brandon shoves the spot for Kerri - how thoughtful of him.
The weather last week spoiled us, it got up into the high 40's, but this week it is back down into the teens and snowing - I don't know if I can take it any more.

Busy Life
So, it has been a while, and we have both been very busy. Our Christmas break started off with an adventure of a canceled flight and closed airports. We ended up flying into Seattle and then having my dad drive us back down to their house. A two-three hour drive took almost 5 due to the snow. Washington state doesn't believe in real snowplows so none of the roads in Vancouver were clear. Spending time with the family was great, and we got some much needed rest.
We came back to Provo about a week before school started and jumped back into work. Then the semester hit like a bomb. I am student teaching and working about 20 hours a week, and Brandon is taking classes and working as well. It feels like to us that we hardly ever see each other.
Student teaching is going great. I am teaching a sixth grade class in the Jordan/Draper area. I was terrified of the sixth graders at first, but I think that has past. Now, I am just worried that they are going to correct my grammar and know a whole lot more than me. See, they are the advanced class, and are learning seventh and eighth grade material. I am worried that I don't know all that I need to in order to help them learn all they can.
Even though we are crazy busy, we are loving life.
