December 2013

I had clinicals from the 4th-22nd but with four days off during the week I was able to have some Christmas fun as well. I love the Christmas season and all the fun things that go with it. Helping mom set up the tree, first snow, wrapping presents, shopping, making gingerbread houses, and old and new traditions like going to Savior of the World. 

I love the feeling of my mom's Christmas home. 

 This picture is the funniest because look at my thumb... why does it look so weird? 

 She loves wrapping presents too

I love when they play together 

 The only thing Jesse wanted for Christmas was for his mom to fix the holes in his blankey... :)

 Nothing better than a nice bowl of top ramen and Grey's Anatomy reruns on your day off 

 One clinical day I was up really late and wanted to go to bed but forgot to make my lunch so Jesse packed one for me and this is what I found. The cutest note and the crust cut off my PB&J... my favorite. 

I spent a clinical day in the OR and it was awesome. I got to watch so many cool surgeries! Plus, I love wearing greens :) 

 I've been dying to try out a kickboxing class at the gym and so I finally did. My hands aren't exactly touch yet so this happened... a nice swollen bruise. 

 Member how Mir's tummy is the cutest? I can't wait to meet my baby nephew! 

 On December 18th three years ago Jesse proposed to me! I remember that day so well and feel so lucky that he picked me to be his wife. 

 Every year the ROTC has an end of the year parade and award ceremony at the UVU ballroom. It's always fun to see Jesse in his element. I am so proud of the awards he got this year. He worked so hard and deserves every one!

 We love when Winnie comes over!! 

 Happy birthday to the best SIL ever! She is one of the greatest people I know. She is selfless, kind, and always looking out for others. I am happy she was here for her birthday so we could celebrate with her!  I love you, Tash Tash! 

 Some mornings we say, "Hey, Kim, wanna teach a yoga class for us?" and she kindly says yes! It's the best having yoga master mother-in-law :) 

 Happy 5th birthday to my baby! Ryan made her a plate of some of her favorite treats and I made the family sing happy birthday to her. It was adorable.
