I can't believe it has been a month since I even got on here. This past month has flown by! I only have 2 weeks left of school before graduation! So I have been busy finishing up the last few requirements. Thanksgiving was great! We went over to my sister Jennifer's house for lunch. Then for dinner, Aaron's family came over to our house. I cooked the turkey, and everyone brought 1 or 2 side dishes. I LOVE the holidays. Especially the shopping that is required! Aaron's sister Sara and I went black Friday shopping this year, just as we have done every year for the last 3. This year we started at Wal-Mart at 10:30 on Thanksgiving and didn't return home till after 6:00 A.M.! I was able to get almost everything that we needed...the car was completely full. Literally, I could barely see out the back windows! Just as tradition, we put the Christmas tree up the day after Thanksgiving. I absolutely love the soft glow of the Christmas tree and the smiles of anticipation that Cecelia has as she looks and feels all the presents. This year is especially cheerful for us because we just found out were expecting! I'm only about 5 weeks pregnant, so it's super early, but pregnant just the same! Yay! I'm due August 11th (according to Nigel's rule) but I have my first prenatal appointment and ultrasound the day before Christmas Eve, so I will probably get a more accurate due date then. We plan on telling Cecelia when we have the ultrasound picture to show her. Plus, it will give us a little more time to get further through the first trimester. I am so excited for graduation, my best friends coming in town for the graduation and Christmas, all the holiday parties, presents, good food, and the new year. Graduation pictures soon to come! I started applying for jobs today too. Hopefully, I can get something that I love and that has good hours. I will be praying hard!
