Over the Christmas Holiday

Hi Everybody!!!
So, we have had a really interesting and SUPER BUSY past few weeks!!! As you all know, Josh and I are getting ready for our BIG MOVE soon! And, it is actually coming a month sooner that we thought! In only a few short weeks, Josh and I will be in Texas! I've already started to check out of things that need checking out of with the Marine Corps & we have given our apartment office notice of our soon-to-be-departure! Now it's down to some serious cleaning and packing, now that Christmas is out of the way! I passed my EMT class, but before I can be truly certified, I have to pass the National Registry Exam! I will be taking it in early January, please pray that I do well!!!!
On the 19th, Josh and I went out to celebrate my good friend Coop's last night here in Cali before she went back to live in Hawaii! We had a lot of fun and I am really going to miss her! We had a lot of good times together in the Corps! And thanks to her, I will try anything when it comes to food! Thanks Coop!

So, we had a simple, yet fun last Christmas in San Diego! We did sort of a misfits Christmas with our friends, the Bereshs; we went to their house for breakfast and they came to ours for dinner!! It was fun! Kyna cooked 1/2 the meal and I cooked the other 1/2!! It made both of our lives easier, I think! Then we sat around and played games! Clue, CatchPhrase, Apples 2 Apples!! It was a good time!


Here's our little tree! I love it! Maybe once we buy a house, we'll getta bigger one! Who knows!


Josh, having fun opening presents!!

This was our table, before we cleared it off to make room for the food! Yum!

On the 10th of January,the day before our 2 year anniversary, josh and I are getting our wedding pictures done!! We're doing two locations: Presidio Park & Wind-N-Sea Beach! (Some of you may recognize the latter from Jen & Brandon's website; it's where they did their wedding pictures!) It is one of the "less busy" beaches here in San Diego! We're hoping with it being January and all that it will deter people from coming out! (Ya right!) But, we're really, really excited! I don't regret not having the big, mad wedding but, I am glad that we decided to do pictures! Stay tuned for more updates on that!



Other than that, their really isn't much else to tell! I know, it probably doesn't sound like we've been busy @ all!! But, sometimes I really can't seem to figure out just where the day has gone! I feel as if I clean and clean but the junk didn't go anywhere!! Haha! It will be worth it in the end! I'm a little nervous about "starting over", but am also really excited about it @ the same time! I cannot wait to start house hunting!!
Well, I really need to go & get started on the 2nd bedroom- that's where I re-place the piles of crap that I move from the other rooms!!! AHHH!!!!
Life is Good
Jess
