Happy New Year!

Once again I'm so sorry its been awhile since I've written, but I feel that no one reads my blog anyway and its just for me to go back... kinda like an online journal.

Anyway.... the holidays are over, kinda glad so I can get back on track with weight watchers (and suprised myself at the scale today, I lost the 3 pounds I gained over the holidays already) #victory

Christmas was amazing! we actually did things differently and did Christmas the weekend before just because Keylee and Kev were going to do Christmas with her family and I wasn't sure about my work schedule, but turns out I got the day off as personal leave, but then the president declared that the VA could close on Christmas eve, so I got it as a holiday! woot woot!

So much fun just being with my family and our dogs. Kev and Keylee's puppy Scouty is so big and she's actually been at my parents house for the past couple of weeks since KS2 had a weekend basketball tournament. Its been so nice having her so close, but I know KS2 will be excited to have the little terrorist back (family nickname, she just chewed up my dad's remote!) LOL! my dad of course was annoyed, but Scouty is just so cute I don't think anyone could stay mad at her. My mom thinks Casey is going to be so sad when her daughter goes back home with KS2 though. :(   They've been having so much for the past two weeks playing and napping (life of dogs must be so rough!)

We also call Scouty wet head because when Casey first saw her again since KS2 took her home, she started to bit Scouty's head, so hence the nickname. LOL!

Christmas was so wonderful though... my favorite gifts included picture frames of the family from KS2 at their wedding, Jackie got me a tablet (yah!) and mom and dad got me an ice cream maker and Dole Whip mix, I'm so excited to use it!

We ended up being lazy all weekend, naps and movies, which was so great!

For new years I went to Jackie's place to ring in the new year. I actually joked with her that its weird that we planned this because growing up she would always complain when she had to entertain her little sister and my friends. LOL! we watched episodes of Scrubs, SNL skits, and kitten videos and the went to bed shortly after midnight! #weold

Well Happy New Year everyone! hope 2019 is the best ever!

PS Joe Mauer update... he did retire and his press conference was so hard to watch, I think I started crying two seconds in when he was tearing up but get this... him and his wife just had a baby boy, so maybe we'll have a future Mauer in a twins uniform in 18-19 years! yah! #loveyoujoeypatrick
