Lately...
Well school has started again and life is busy as ever. I am in my last semester of the Medical Assisting program. After this, I am doing my externship, which is already lined up and ready to go. Justin has been offered a wonderful opportunity and so we are thinking about it a lot. Well I am not sure I can tell the happenings of the month in order, but this is what we have been up too. We drove out to Driggs and had dinner with my Uncle Delwyn and Aunt Loriann. The drive home was horrible. The weather was so bad. The snow was blowing and there were many times that we couldn't even see the road but we just kept praying and we made it home. We have had some fun times this month! Whitney has started Toddler Lab on campus and she LOVES it. She cries every time she has to leave. Whitney's birthday is in a few weeks and she is going to be 2! I can hardly believe it! For her birthday we are just going to have little family get together. Carlei is just growing so fast! She is going to be 6 months old tomorrow! It is so crazy! She is just starting to get into 6-9 months. Justin is working and going to school. He is still demanding as ever!! :] He has just so busy and wonderful! We split the chores and who changes diapers and such! Life is great!

One more thing I forgot to mention! We got to go to California and attend my great friend's wedding! Nathan Anderson and Codi Keyser got married in the Redlands Temple and we were able to go to the sealing! It was wonderful! I am super excited for them. When we where hugging Codi, she asked who we were and we told her that we were the Foxes. She just says, I have heard so much about you! And we all just had the look of...oh crap what have they told you about us? :) It was really fun to see all of our old friends and family! We also go to visit with Kyle and Sherilyn, my cousins! It was wonderful to see them again and to finally meet their adorable daughter, Sydney, who is well over the age of 1. But it was really fun and we enjoyed seeing them!
End of the Year Festivities
*Warning: Super long post with no pics. I forgot my camera at home for both events. Sorry!*
This year for Thanksgiving we were able to spend it down in Salt Lake with Justin's side of the family. We had so much fun with the family. We had all of the usual foods like turkey and potatoes and what not. We then went to go and visit the extended family at Grandma Hansen's house. I then took several people's blood pressure for one of my medical assisting classes. Justin and I stayed up all night and went black Friday shopping all night. We were able to get everything that we had set out to get! It was awesome! We did not have any aweful experiences either. It was wonderful and we had so much fun.
We ended the semester on December 15. Well that was my last final anyways. Then I got the nasty 24-hour flu that has been going around. Then on Saturday, Justin came down with. Over the 3 days that we were sick Whitney had Croup and so she didn't feel good either and was super clingy to me. Some how Carlei and Whitney both were able to avoid the flu, which I am super grateful for.Anyways, I was able to get straight A's this semester! Which I am so proud of myself. Justin also did really well this semester! Good job Honey!
Well were went down to Vegas to hangout with my family for Christmas. We stopped at Justin's parents house and had Christmas with them! Whitney got some really awesome toys that she absolutely love! Then we headed down to Vegas! The weather was so awesome! It was warm and sunny and I was able to wear some capris for the last time in 2011. We went to the chocolate factory in Henderson to look at all of the beautiful Christmas lights that thye have there. We were able to teach Whitney what Santa says. It is Ho Ho Ho in case you forgot. :) Carlei grew out of all of the clothes that I had packed for her so she was wearing the same outfit a lot. Carlei ate so much food she definitely hit her growth spurt. For our Christmas present from my parents they took us all to the Transiberion Orchestra and then they also paid for a babysitter for all 3 of the grand babies! It was the we first time that we have left the kiddos with someone we didn't know. I am sure the babysitters thought that I was over protective or something. I am glad that we left the kids behind though! It was so AWESOME! One of my families traditions is to go to a movie together as a family. This year we went and saw Sherlock Holmes #2! I really liked that movie! We played tons of games like Uno and Hand and Foot. My mom also bought Whitney an airplane because she kept on stealing Jacobs. Uncle Andrew taught Whitney how to "fly" the plane and how to "shoot" people and make the noise too. We accidently left the airplane at my parents house and so Whitney has been flying her hand around in circles and making the airplane noise. I am super grateful that Andrew and Anna are going to bring it home with them.
When we got home we unpacked and cleaned the house. Then we put Christmas away and we are now ready for the New Semester to begin. For New Year's, we put the girls to bed at 10 (they took super late naps) so they got to celebrate the new year with New York city. :) Then Justin and I stayed up and played games (which I definitely beat him at every game, so he quit playing with me :)). We had some Martinellies and had our New Years Kiss and then we went to bed! We had a super fun time! So much has happened this year with our family and I am grateful for most of the changes, like having Carlei added to our home and family! She is such a mild child, we are definitely blessed! Whitney and Carlei love each other so much! I am super excited for when they can start to actually play together! We have much to look forward to in 2012 and I am excited for this adventure to start!
