Well, I guess I took an extended leave of absence for the holidays. Good times! Here are some highlights:
-Saw "Night at the Museum". Great movie! I would recommend it.
-Battle for Contentment is getting easier.
-Reading "Every Young Woman's Battle" and "That Hideous Strength". Both are five star books.
-Researched more graduate schools and came up with a few more options.
-Made snowpeople with Aubry after our giant snowstorm.
-Made a snow fort with Josh, Sarah, Laura, and Amelia.
-Sledded with Kasey, Audra, Carly, and Carissa on Sunday.
-My friend is engaged and I am a bridesmaid!!!! I am giving in to wearing a dress, but crossing my fingers that visions of pink bridesmaids do not dance in my friend's head.
-Went to a concert where I found an abandoned dog whom I rescued. The shelter was closed, so he came home with me for the night. Well, one night turned into two since the shelter was closed New Year's. He ended up going ice fishing with my Dad and I (Which was a blast by the way). He was a great dog! He ended up sleeping in my bed last night since he was scared of the coyotes or wolves he heard while in the mudroom. Anyway, he wouldn't stay on the floor, and considering it was two in the morning, I was in no position to argue. We dropped him off at the shelter today to see if his owners come find him. It was very sad to say bye. I had a dog for a few days. :) I "named" him Jack, hence Jack the dog making me laugh.

*Edit* Trebonte asks when the money for my missions trip is due. I changed my dates to June 28th to July 14 since my friend is getting married, and I am in the wedding. I assume that I would need the money before June 28th. *End Edit*
