At Christmas time we made our pilgrimage to Taber to celebrate the holidays. Raven was absolutely spoiled by Grannie, Grandpa, aunts and all the uncles. It took us two car loads to get all of the presents home. On New Years Eve we went to my sister Zela's with Suzi and Clarissa's families. There was more food than we knew what to do with but no one was really excited to eat the stinky cheese that Mardy and I brought (we had to put it in an extra zip lock bag because it smelled so bad). We rang in the New Years with whispers because all of the children were asleep, the clock that we counted down from was ten minutes fast but I didn't care, I was so tired I went right to bed with Raven. For the past couple of months I have been taking a class in Raymond for moms and babies. I enjoy the class and I love to visit with Grandma ZoBell and the Keelers afterwards. Raven started crawling a few days before Christmas and has been terrorizing our living room ever since. She is standing on her own now and I have a feeling that she'll be walking soon. We are currently still waiting to hear back from the Law schools that Mardy has applied to. We've figured that if Law school doesn't work out than we'll just move to France for a few years.....or the Bahamas. I go back to work in April and I'll work for the summer while Mardy takes care of Raven.
