How Time Flies....

when you're having fun!  Or just extremely busy :)
A lot has changed for us since my last blog (sadly, almost a month ago).  We packed up and moved out of our apartment and into Greg and Sheri's house.  Since our househunt has gone a bit slower than expected and Aaron is transitioning from his job at MetLife to the Dallas FD and with our lease at the apartment ending, we weren't sure if we should go month to month on our lease.  Greg and Sheri were so nice and offered to let us move in with them.  This is allowing us to save some money for that big downpayment we will be making on a house hopefully within the next couple of months.  So, with the help of a few strong friends  (Thanks Brent, Steven, Jonathan and Colton :) we were able to move out of our apartment fairly easily.  Also, my mom was a rockstar and packed up all of our kitchen in one day :)
I was a bit weary of moving in with my in-laws, but lets be honest....I have the world's greatest in-laws!  They have been so wonderful and fun to be around.  Sheri has even packed my lunch for me a few mornings!  I could get used to this :)  I know I have said it before, but I am SO LUCKY to have married into a wonderful family that I truly love and love spending time with. 
On top of moving, I feel like we have had so many other things going on this month!  School has been non-stop!  February is a busy month - our 100th day of school, Groundhog's Day, Valentine's Day, President's Day and Dental Health Month.  Annnnndd, its a Leap Year so I've got a special activity planned for tomorrow.  The kids are going to make a time capsule to remember how things were when they were in kindergarten. 
Aaron graduated from his Paramedic Academy on February 2nd which was a great way to start the month.  Since then he has been busy studying for his National Registry test to officially be a paramedic!  While it is stressful, I know he is going to do great! 
On a totally different note, while Morgan was home for Christmas break, she introduced me to a new show.  The Big Bang Theory.  I love it!  It's so funny!  I can't decide who my favorite character is.  Actually, I'm pretty sure it's Sheldon.  Could people really be like that?  Sadly, I think yes.
Well, here's hoping that it won't be another month before I blog again!
