Catch Up

Yep, world's worst blogger right here. So instead of being a better blogger (I just don't think it'll happen), I'm going to do one big post of the things I haven't mentioned:


-Went to DC with the family in November, which was FANTASTIC. My family is a blast and my parents were the sweetest to take us all on their vacation with them (in celebration of my dad's 50th birthday)



- We got a new dog! Her name is Minnie (her previous owners, big Disney fans, named her after Minnie Mouse, they weren't being ironic - though that would be kind of funny). She's an english mastiff and she's SO sweet! Aside from one bad incident (which we should have expected when we tried to give 2 dogs 1 ham bone and think that they'd share), she and Cali are getting along great. They seem to be having a lot of fun playing during the day because Jay and I come home from work to two exhausted dogs, which is fine with me!



- Harper (the cutest niece ever) turned 1!! We were lucky enough to get to spend her first birthday with her in Utah and it was a blast! I may have gone a little overboard with the gifts (she got more than Jay did between Christmas and her birthday) but it's just too much fun buying cute little presents and watching her open them. I just can't get enough of that little girl!


- Jay was AWESOME and had a new stereo and sub installed in my car for my 25th birthday. And yes, the first thing I played in it was Eminem so I was that weird preppy girl driving down the street blasting music with lots of bass in my Hyundai Elantra. Oh well. I enjoyed my new system for a grand total of 2 days before I did this:



- Not the best way to celebrate, I know. I rear ended a car on the freeway (someone a couple cars ahead was cut off so we all slammed on our breaks and I hit a truck). I'm not injured, was able to drive my car home (with the air bag light on-made me nervous) so it could have been worse, but if you're looking for me around town, you better keep your eyes pealed for my loaner old school Honda Civic with no radio. I'll get my car back in about 10 days so all in all, it's not too bad.

I think that covers most of the major things ... Hopefully I'll get better at blogging regularly but until then ... Sorry?
