FINALS and Christmas 2009

WOW! I can hardly believe that finals week is starting next week which I am no where near prepared for, however God will get me through next Thursday as He always does! The most intimidating final is my Organic/Biochemistry which is 10 chapters cumulative. Speaking of that, I would like to ask all of you who read this to do me a favor and many others will appreciate this too...
go to http://www.youtube.com/ and search for Pink Glove Dance. This is a dance done at St. Vincent Hospital in Oregon in support of Breast Cancer Awareness. For each hit, money will be donated to breast cancer research. The reason I bring this up is because my chemistry teacher informed us that her mother's breast cancer has come back, but has metastasized to nearly every other organ in her body and has a very short time to live. This also hits close to home as my cousin is a Breast Cancer Survivor as well as my aunt, but is currently battling cancer again. So please, take a moment out of your day and think of someone you may know who has suffered or think of the people I mentioned. THe video is hilarious but uplifting and inspiring!

Christmas...wow...Hans and I have gotten lights up outside, but that is as far as we have gotten. We are both so busy working weekends and going to school that the inside of the house is no where near ready but hopefully next weekend...we will get the tree up! Our tree is quite large so it takes a while to get it up and lighted and then all the ornaments placed! However it is so much fun. I am planning on taking pictures of all our Christmas lights, and our backyard display that we came up with this year courtesy of my younger brother it looks amazing! We have done very minimal Christmas shopping, but slowly getting it done! However as many of us know...Christmas is about recognizing the birth of Christ and spending time with those we love not about all the gifts.

Hopefully as the amount of school work left to complete dwindles, I will post some awesome Christmas decorating pictures! Would be nice to hear from some of you!

Happy Holidays!
