The Holidays are near!

I'm so so excited for the holidays! Thanksgiving is tomorrow and Christmas is ONE month from TODAY!!!  I'm just so excited for everything about the holidays-- family, treats, no work or school, warm blankets, etc!

As for my life. I found out this morning one of my clients is in jail- probation violation. I have to send another client to get an early polygraph since he continues to deny his crime. I was assigned two more clients in team meeting yesterday. I only have two more weeks of my class until next year.

I also got to hang out with an old roommate yesterday, Sarah Smith. She rode the Frontrunner down to the city. We went to lunch and hung out!! It was so fun to see her again. I just love her and how funny she is. Kinda makes me miss my friends from Rexburg. sad.

Well happy thanksgiving to all tomorrow!!! Hopefully I'll have some pictures from the holidays!

ps- you should leave a comment so I know there are people reading- otherwise this might be worthless? ha. LOVES!

Quick Update

I just wanted to leave a quick update on whats goin on- I've been pretty busy with school and work. Things are starting to pick up at work- my clients are actually starting to come. AMAZING!! ha. It's been frustrating, but it's good real life experience in the field. I'm almost done with my first full semester of grad school, so of course I'm working on lots of projects and papers. I actually finished my Policy class this past Wednesday. I did a presentation in class with a partner. I'm pretty sure I got all possible points in that class-- so 1 down and.... 4 to go!!

Ally and Greg and the family spend the weekend at Kyle and Dilys' house. We had Taylor and Allyssa's birthday parties in the club house!! It was fun, but a long day for the kids! It's always fun to be with family, but lets be honest-- it's exhausting!! haha. I'm looking forward to Thanksgiving next week and having a few days to just veg!

Halloween

Well after moving I decided to go spend the weekend in Logan with my parents. It was nice to have a relaxing weekend, sleep in my own bed, and see some friends!!! On Friday night my mom and I made pumpkin cookies! yum! I just love pumpkin treats-- They really make me feel in the holiday mood! :o) Then on Saturday I went out shopping with my mom for a few things and then my dad joined us to go grocery shopping. That night I went to a little Halloween party with some friends!! I decided to try and find a costume about an hour before and this is what came of that:


Notice the mustache!!



Britt, Cessi, and I

So we watched Hocus Pocus and had some yummy Halloween treats!! Then we pretty much just chatted the rest of the night! We had lots to catch up on! But it was a good weekend.

This week has been very busy and full of lots of driving. My brother's place is further away from my work and school. I need to learn to us the UTA but it scares me. ha. I also had to register for classes this last week- I was nervous I wouldn't be able to get in the classes I wanted. I was a little shakey, but things ended up working out really well for me! I got all the classes I wanted! yay!! It's weird to think I already registered for my last full semester of grad school, but exciting at the same time!!

Tomorrow will be a crazy day-- I have like 4 individual appointments and a group. I have a feeling I will be exhausted after tomorrow!!! haha. I will be sure to update on how it goes!
