The Woolf Pack

Last one

Seeing as how we have 11 days left in 2010 and I haven’t blogged in about 8 months, this will probably be my last post for the year. Don’t cry, it’ll be ok.

Our camera decided to go into hibernation about 5 months ago, and still haven’t made it to a repair shop to see if it can be awoken..so there won’t be any exciting pictures sorry!

While driving to church today we picked up a friend from our ward and she was telling us how journaling is something that keeps her going everyday. She has a journal and a pen at her bedside everyday. It got me thinking about how important it is to capture life, while insignificant as I may feel it is.

Looking back on what’s happened in the last 8 months it can be summarized as follows:

I turned 31
James got more gray hairs
James got employee of the month…2x
I switched salons and received my Manager’s license
A new sweet baby girl was born on the Woolf side
I get a cute new baby girl cousin ANY day now!
My dad was called as the Cleveland Stake Patriarch (he is amazing)
My mom & I went to Mexico for my cousin’s wedding, it was caliente in every sense of the word!
I was the matron of honor in a friend’s wedding – the first time I ever had to give a speech!
James & I celebrated 4 years of wedding bliss (I truly feel like the luckiest girl)
James was offered an internship that he’s been enjoying for the last couple of weeks (and it’s paid!!)
We have watched almost every documentary on nextflix…aside from the ones about dogs
My friend Margo and i did a “Favorites Party” it was probably one of the funnest party’s I’ve been to!
I have seriously been thinking about going back to school to get my MBA (James says I think too much!)
I started weight watchers again only to give up again….2011 is a new year
I sent away to get information on becoming foster parents…haven’t heard anything back yet, but just want to be informed in case we aren’t able to have children (not giving up hope though!)
And lastly I’m kind of freaking out that Christmas is this week!!!!!!! In a good way, like “Oh my gosh I am going to eat so many cookies in less than a week” kind of freaking out.

{random thought}
Have you ever started randomly crying because you’re happy? Ok, so I always randomly start crying for no reason. My most recent “episode” was about 11 p.m. this past Friday when we were driving to Pittsburgh for a friend’s graduation. Obviously it was dark outside and I think we were listening to Linkin Park (so soothing). Out of nowhere I just started crying after looking over at James. I cannot comprehend the love that Heavenly Father has for me (and you). He loves me so much to give me an amazing husband to mostly put up with me, but to laugh with me and have a wonderful life together. Amidst all of the trials we go through we are able to recognize the strength we are getting from them as a couple. I continue to be in awe of both of our parents. While they are both so different, they have supported us and helped us in anyway they can!

Well, here’s to my last post of the year. If 2010 can handle me…I’m sure I’ll get along with 2011 just fine.

And for good measure, here’s a photo I found on facebook from my cousin’s pictures. See, I told you I really am mexican!
