January Update

We started our year with a moment of insanity! On January 1st, we drove out to the Animal Shelter---just to look. We came home with Lily about an hour later. She is a four-month old Lab mix. John is getting to break out one of his favorite Christmas gifts frequently...The SHAMWOW! Tessa acclimated quickly to her new sister. We are pretty sure that Tessa thinks Lily is her own personal chew toy.

They acclimated quickly!

On January 5th, John was officially accepted into the University of New Mexico! He transferred over on the 19th and has been buried in the books ever since :) He is a very dedicated student...it makes me feel just a tad guilty that I wasn't quite so focused when I was in school.

Between work and school, we have been pretty busy. We did take time out to enjoy the Super Bowl (and the commercials) with our neighbors. We totally dug the Bruce Springsteen floor slide into the camera!

The Boss camera slide was awesome. I rewinded it to watch it 2 more times. It was worth missing the beginning of the next song to watch that guy go from cool to fool in 10 feet. Glad all is going well.

I love your posts! John some things never change. I think it started with a Chia pet, then the Clapper, I am sure there have been others but now it looks like the latest TV add that has captured you is the Shamwow!
Love you guys,
Mom
