Christmas was a fun but busy day for us. We woke up at home and opened presents with my Mom, Dad, and Kim. Then we went to my Grandparent's house in Maryland for a 2:30 dinner. Then off to Magnolia to have dinner and open up presents with Justin's parents and siblings. We really enjoyed getting to see so many people in such a short amount of time. I think my best present was my new digital camera and the wii fit both from Justin. Justin said his best present was his new chucks and his bible concordance.

January
I took two classes in January and did an internship at The Little School in Dover. Justin got settled into his new job that he started Christmas week at Smartis Inc. We start hanging out with some new friends Kristin and Ryan and their two children Matthew and Makayla. Paige had her baby and after a few days in the nicu he was ready to come home. Our church also had their unbirthday party. But thats really all of January. Oh yeah and Kim moved out and started renting a house. And our church had its first month of being an Angel Food Host site which is really cool to be a part of.

February
Okay so February flew by and it wasn't our best month. Justin got new orders stating that their two weeks scheduled in the summer usually would now be March 2-March 15. I feel like they get 13 months why do they need two more weeks. But what do I know. My spring semester started. I am taking 3 classes up on main campus and two online. I have class on Monday, Wednesday, and in the morning on Friday. When I'm not in class I work but my work schedule has been modified so that I can spend alot of time with Justin. His deployment date is now April 13th and he is due home May of 2010. It sucks really bad. I have no idea what I am going to do without him for such a long time. I got sick and went to the doctor she wanted to run test thinking that I might have rheumatoid arthritis. So I had to get blood work done. The test came back and my doctor sent me to a rheumatiologist. So that was a little uneasy to swallow. I went to that doctor on the 23rd thinking that he would say nothing was wrong but instead I found out that the blood test reveal I have lupus. That was actually really scary the way the doctor was talking about it. So now they are going to take some more blood and keep an eye on me. The doctor said that I might also have rheumatoid arthritis with the lupus and future blood test will either confirm or reject that idea. So we got some things that we really weren't expecting to happen.
So now you have the scoop hopefully I will be able to update more often and i will keep you updated on Justin and how he is doing once he is deployed.
Hope everyone has a safe, happy, and healthy March.
