Project Complete!

After 6 months of living in our new home, we finally have every room complete!! The latest addition was turning my "craft making sign room" into our office. There is still a little bit of work to do, but we both love having another room to relax in, watch tv, sit on the computer, and enjoy time with family and friends.

Happy Birthday Jesus!

This Christmas we had the joy of spending it together as a family in Ellensburg. The whole family was there, although Ryan found out on a late notice that he had to work Christmas morning, so he was with us on Christmas Eve. Glen also got to spend Christmas with us, which was a huge blessing. Although the Glaser house was extremely busy, we had a wonderful time. Seth and Dylan had so much fun opening presents and we had so much fun watching them. Seth is at the perfect age where when he hears the word "present" he goes crazy... literally! We were blessed to be together as a family and to celebrate the birth of Jesus!

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas...

We have discovered quickly that we will be one of those families that has all the lights and Christmas decorations up the day after Thanksgiving. :) It feels so wonderful to come home each night to a home that feels like Christmas. Christmas is our favorite holiday, and being new home owners make it all the more fun to decorate.

Thankful at Thanksgiving!

This year I have so much to be thankful for. We are thankful to be home owners and were able to have our wonderful family over for Thanksgiving. We are thankful to have wonderful new teaching jobs and be living in such a gorgeous town. I am thankful to have an amazing husband who is always so willing to help around the house and treat me like a princess. We are thankful to have an incredible Lord to serve, and last we are thankful to both have incredible families who we love so much!! Although it was different not having Aaron's mom around, we are thankful that she is rejoicing with Jesus!

A much needed "girl's weekend"

After a long awaited three months of being in Ellensburg, I headed there this past weekend for a much needed girls weekend. Aaron went to a men's retreat with dad, so I spent the weekend with my mom and our wonderful girlfriends. We spent the weekend eating out, going to a baby shower, getting coffee, going to mom's spelling bee, having a PJ dinner party, and enjoying my mom's company. :) I wish the weekend would have been longer, but I will take whatever I get!!

All the girls (minus Alison and Kelly which were cut off)

A weekend of sign making and cute nephews!

What a fun and exciting weekend we have had. Ryan, Lainey, and the boys came on Thursday and have been able to spend the whole weekend with us. It feels wonderful knowing that Dylan and Seth are going to be so close to their "Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Aaron". We have had the joy of going out to dinner, spending time playing laser tag and mini golfing, eating donuts, wrestling in the house, and Dylan even got go spend a day in kindergarten with me. Along with the nephews being here, I finished making 5 more of my vinyl signs. I am enjoying my new hobby and loving having new products to sell! :)

Welcome to Washington!

It's official... I have the cutest nephews in the world! After spending most of their life in Las Vegas, the Glaser family is in the process of moving to Spokane! I am so excited and grateful that I will finally be closer to my brother, his wife, and my adorable nephews. Although I haven't seen them yet, this picture gives much evidence that they are having a great time at "Grandma Jo and Pops" house. :)
