Happy New Year! 2013

I am excited for a new year. 
I hope 2013 brings a new job for Craig, travel, weight loss, and more memories to document :)

January's Top Ten

1. It's official...
Craig is a hot nurse or Murse
He has passed the board of registered nursing, he has his nursing license in hand and the wait is on. 
Resume's have been submitted. 
Cross your fingers that a hospital picks up this guy soon :)

2. Gigi's 91st
Craig's gramma turned 91 this month.
She is a true inspiration to me. She is sharp as a tac, has a fantastic sense for life and humor and she is a joy to be around. PS and only one broken bone in those 91 years, Good job GIGI! Keep on truckin'!
We love you Gigi!

3. Legos
We saw the cooooolest Lego city on display in the Palo Alto History Museum
It was quite popular. We stood in line for 30 minutes to see it.
Well worth the wait


This is only a small portion of the city. SO cool

4. New Addition
That's right we got a Prius!!!

We have caught some flack for getting a Prius.
Things like.... "Minus 5 man points for Craig" or "Are you drinking your super food smoothie in your new Prius you hippie?" & " Do you feel like less of a man Craig?"

You know what suckers? We have only spent $30 in gas in 3 weeks  :)
SO there! (Donna we LOVE the Prius)


5. Crazy Hair Day
Sev & Liv participated in Crazy Hair Day at school
They look like a couple of punk rockers and they look too much like teenagers!



6. Northern California Weather Advisory
I check the weather constantly. (It is one of my favorite habits that I got from my dad)
I thought this weather advisory for our area on my Weather Channel app was funny. 
Our families that are truly freezing in places where there is actual bitter weather would find this humorous as well....
Weather advisory: 
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO DROP INTO THE LOWER  TO MID 30S.  
IMPACTS: OUTDOOR PLANTS AND PETS ARE AT RISK FROM THE COLD  TEMPERATURES.  
PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS
A FROST ADVISORY MEANS THAT FROST IS POSSIBLE. 
SENSITIVE OUTDOOR  PLANTS MAY BE KILLED IF LEFT UNCOVERED.  


7.  Sev's Quote Of The Month
"Mom Liv has easy homework, Mine....is exhausting"

8. I turned 35!!! :(
But Craig made me the best pot roast I have ever had. Yum!
Although I was a bit depressed to have turned one year older the birthday wishes & gifts from family and having the kids & Craig around made it a lovely day.



9. BBall
Sev started playing basketball
When we tell him we need to go and practice he says, "Dad I only practice with my team"
He's got a lot to learn :)
BUT he is really good at shooting. Nearly makes the basket everytime



10. Olivia's 8th Birthday
Liv wanted to have a tea party for her birthday.
Sev & his friend were the butlers and served the ladies. 
It was a delightful event (pretend I am saying that in Lady Grantham's voice)
