Oh December...

How does a month fly so quickly? I have no idea and I'm still trying to figure it out. Now it is the beginning of December and the Christmas decorations are up. Oh and I realized it has been a month since I posted! I don't think many people read this blog but it is nice to keep it updated for my own sake.

Of course each year passes more quickly than the first (it seems) but I'm finishing up my second to last quarter of school and so am more reflective about what the future holds. I can't believe that I will soon be done with my Master's program, Chet will be turning 28, and, in June, we will have been married 4 years already. I don't know where I will get a job after I am done. I certainly hope that I can make it in the new role of a pediatric nurse practitioner. In many ways, I am nervous and a bit scared for what the future holds. I know that God has plans for me and He is guiding me but sometimes it is still hard! I often doubt myself and stress out about what each day brings. I can't know the future though... I just need to trust in God's plan. In the mean time, I suppose I also should just take each day one at a time.

I am excited for the holidays. Though Chet and I both have to work on Christmas Day, we are gearing up for our fun holiday festivities. We are headed to Leavenworth today for our annual "engagement anniversary" trip. Tomorrow, hopefully we'll get some snowboarding in before heading home. Then its Chet's birthday and after that... Christmas! After Christmas, we are happy to be going out to Montana for celebrating with his parents as well as my cousin's wedding on New Year's Eve! All my immediate and extended family should pretty much be there and I'm sure it will be a fun, festive time. They have been planning their wedding for over a year so I'm sure it will be spectacular!

Anyways, must go get ready for Leavenworth before Chet wakes up from his nap (he worked last night).
