So I have been in the crafting mood lately, probably because of the hundreds of crafty-type blogs I follow. So I have been trying out some new recipes and made some Valentine decorations (since I had none). So here are some things I have made...
*made these yummy taquitos the other night...delish!
Also, we had a replay of our honeymoon this past week... and NOT in a good way. For those of you who don't know, on our honeymoon Chris got DEATHLY ill the 2nd night and eventually had to spend the night in the ER. Well Chris woke up at 4 am the other day to...without being to graphic... violently throw up! This continued about every half hour for up until about 2 pm. Luckily I was able to keep him somewhat hydrated and he finally broke his fever later in the day and was doing okay. It must have just been an awful 24 hour bug, but BOY it brought back some "wonderful" memories!
School
Chris has been working his tail end off in school. I believe this is going to be his hardest semester. He, along with his fellow peers, are trying to get used to being the guinea pigs for the administration, since this is the first year of his program. It is a bit frustrating at time, but he is hanging in there. He also was asked by the faculty to be the California Podiatric Medicine Association (CPMA) Chair person for his school. He gets to fly to Oakland this weekend to go to a conferences for it!
Work
My subbing had finally began to pick up in the Upland School District. Some weeks are better than others. I have done everything from 1st to 8th grade. It is always an adventure each day being in a different school, grade, and classroom. However, I have not had any terrible days and have actually really enjoyed many of my assignments. At times I miss my old class SOOO much!
Church
Chris and I are feeling settled into our new ward. We got to speak a few weeks ago, which always helps people get to know you better. I also just got called as the Young Womens 1st Counselor... so all you that have served in Young Womens PLEASE let me know so I can pick your brains for advice.
Family
We have got to spend a lot of great time with Chris' family lately. We have loved all the wonderful Sunday dinners at his parents' and Katie's house. We also have become an Aunt and Uncle AGAIN when Katie had her 4th child, Libby Jean. We have enjoyed being around Libby and getting practice with newborns...let's just say it is making us baby hungry! Also, I got to go see Maddie perform with her grandpa (my Father-in-law) at her school Talent Show. Here is a short clip below of their adorable song!

That video clip is SO CUTE. What a good grandpa!
Ugh...how awful about the sick Chris!!! That is no fun. And - it's always traumatizing to be woken up in the middle of the night to your spouse throwing up. Of course, I'm sure it was much worse for him! Glad it's over. And congrats on your calling - you will be GREAT! :)
