We are alive I promise!

We are still here. Its been a busy semester adjusting to dental school. And boy what an adjustment it has been. I am still at home putting the house together and doing homemaker things. I really love it. Starting next week I will be watching a baby for 2 days a week for a little extra cash so I am kind of excited about that. Jared did well in his classes and really enjoys school. I am learning that even though you pay a lot of money to come have teachers teach you they could still care less and would rather be doing their research so this semester was frustrating because teachers wouldn't teach and the students were expected to know the material. Good thing Jared is smart and can figure things out.
 Jared is getting braces next month at the student clinic. A friend in our ward who is in his 3rd year of dental will be putting them on. Should be fun!
There is a good support system out here for the wives and we are always hanging out.
Here are some pictures because I like more pictures then words on my blog.
 got this monopoly game for Christmas- Jared smoked me at it. I think the game was a total of 20 minutes!
 I seriously love this fat cat. he is a dog in a cats body, he fetches, comes when you call, goes to the door to check to see who is there, cuddles and plays. just love him. who would of thought i would have a cat, its nice to have someone at home with me on the long days jared is at school.
 i scored this desk at a thrift store for $25! it will be my craft table! there are some awesome thrift stores around here, one that i frequent quite often and will have to go back soon.
 This is Abbi and we have watched here a few times and she always ends up snuggling with jared.
 always
and always
  game night at the church we accidentally dressed like a stop light.
  we visited my very good friend Meggie and her family in Ohio for a weekend of camping and block parties. It was a blast!
 Nerds for Halloween!
We celebrated our 5th year of marriage together! Jared had been sick with some virus for the 3 days in a row and finally felt good enough to go out on our anniversary. we went out to the Cheesecake Factory, and ice cream and just relaxed and chilled. It was great!
 
  We love Michigan and Ann Arbor. So much to do here and its a beautiful place! we feel very blessed to be where we are now. Jared started his second semester and it is already a very busier semester. I am feeling withdrawals from having 3 solid weeks with him over Christmas. I need to find a new hobby.
Hope the new year is treating everyone great!
