Finally a new post..for a new age!

                                                      

After about a month and a half of having computer problems and then our computer dying and getting a new computer, I am posting once again. Yeah!
 This past week was quite an eventful week for many things but the pinnacle was December 10... my 26th birthday! I thought it was just going to be another ordinary birthday but Heavenly Father sent a special gift: SNOW!!! Some may not think that that is not such an exciting thing but I love this stuff and don't get to see it much, especially living in the part of Texas we do. When I looked out my window it looked like a dream come true, even though it was just a sprinkle. Well, there was more in store for the day. I got to work not really looking forward to work 
itself because I sit at a computer all day, drafting and it can get quite boring. Well my computer thought it was time for a break (permanent break that it is) and decided to call it quits. It wouldn't turn on and continued to making a very high pitched squealing noise along with clank clank every few squeals. I thought only dying animals could make these noises. I
 called the computer guy and he told me my hardrive just gave out and that they were going to have to replace it but it wouldn't be done by today. Luckily my data was able to be saved but I couldn't do my regular job so I got put on Christmas card duty which was so much better! It was like a mini vacation which lasted till Friday! Amidst stuffing envelopes with Christmas
cards
 for all of our clients, we had a holiday luncheon Texas BBQ style and I also received two deliveries of the most beautiful flowers from my husband and my mom. And to just add the icing to the cake, it started snowing all over again and this time there were HUGE flakes and it lasted for hours which meant it was time to make a snowman! Later on Mick went and got the most scrumptious Strawberry Chocolate Mouse birthday cake and had some close friends/neighbors come over and devour most of it. 
                  

          Needless to say it was the perfect ending to my perfect day!
