dreary cold winter...

So sorry for not updating sooner! It's been a busy couple of months. Between Christmas shopping, busy work schedules and getting ready for our trip to NC...December flew by! Both Justin and I enjoyed our visit to NC for Christmas. We got to spend time with friends and family. My grandmother fell and broke her hip, but we managed to still enjoy Christmas with her in the hospital. It snowed in Raleigh for Christmas and we had major delays getting home. For us the flight home was one of the worst we've ever had to deal with,  but we were glad to make it back. Coming back to Tulsa after being home for a week was difficult. But getting back to our routines and hanging out with our friends helped.


My 34th birthday was spent hanging out with our friends  Derrick and Jessica (our neighbors down the street) and we all went to dinner at Outback and then to the Hard Rock Casino. We played the penny slots and only took in $10 to spend. I came back with 6 dollars and Justin lost his money...lol! It really was a cool place to visit though with all the memorabilia. Just was a bit scared by the machines and it took him awhile to relax and have fun, but once he did, he had a good time. There's often really good entertainment there, like Vince Gill was there this past weekend. We also got to hang out with Marcial and Cassie and eat some Sushi. They are the owners of the house we rent, very nice people. I even got Justin into a movie theatre!!!! We went to see Little Fockers which was very cute and we loved Robert Deniro in it!

Justin is studying for his FE exam in April. He has been very good at spending an hour or more a night studying. While he's been busy with studying and exercising the mind, I have been exercising the body. I have been on a health kick, working out and eating good. I gave up diet drinks this past week, which was a good thing! Trying to be healthier!

I think we are getting more settled with time. We can't wait till the warmer weather to get outside more. Recently it snowed here and we got to go to the park and play a little after work. I will try to put some pics up of the snow soon. I'm trying to start a new hobby of making jewlery which looks like fun. I will update you on that...

Trying to think of anything new in Tulsa that we've experienced to share...I think less and less really surprises me these days.
