It's been so long!

It's been way too long since I have written on this blog! Time sure flies by. As I am sure it is for everyone, life is just hectic. So, I'm not going to try to tell about everything, just kind of where we are now. :)

Christmas was great and snowy! I am so ready for winter to be over! I'm not a cold weather person at all. Bella got lots of fun toys & enjoyed opening presents...though she thought they were all for her. As you can see, she did not enjoy Santa! She likes everyone, I have no idea what it is about that red suit & beard!

Bella is growing every day, she's so fun! She loves books and babies. She is talking so much & we are amazed by how she learns so quickly. I just love it...she's wonderful! :)

Other than work, school, and Bella, we don't do much! Zack is working hard with his business and doing great. Work for me is about the same as usual. I started my FINAL semester of my Ph.D. program!! I cannot believe in just a few more months, I will be done with coursework for good! I have started the dissertation process and cannot wait to get started...yes, I guess I am an academic at heart...:) who knew!?

That's about all for us. Not a fan of Santa...:(

Such a mess...she loves mac & cheese!

My beautiful little angel....God is so good...I am so thankful for her.

My sister, Bella, and I....Bella loves her "Aunt Nessa"
