It's hard to believe November is already half way over! Things have been pretty busy at the Flatland abode. As the current semester is coming to a close, we find ourselves feeling the pressure to write papers and study for finals and plan next semester's schedules. Todd is lucky- he will be done with his undergrad in just over a year and he knows exactly what he's doing. I, on the other hand, am feeling a bit panicked. This Spring semester I have to be admitted into an actual program and then I need to stick with and graduate in said area of study. It's so final and I am having a difficult time committing to anything. Good luck to us.
Other than school, we are excited to be in full swing of the holiday season. We have most of our Christmas shopping done and are anxiously awaiting Thanksgiving so Todd can put the tree up and I can decorate it. Oh, and the fabulous Thanksgiving dinner and time with family- that will be really good too. So, since this is our Thanksgiving/November blog, I would just like to list a few things we are grateful for: Our wonderful families, our little dog, the awesome ward we live in, good jobs, an opportunity to go to school, each other (of course), good friends, this country, and of course the Gospel of Jesus Christ and all it entails. We hope everyone is enjoying this holiday season!

Hi, Todd and Kristie! I found your blog when I looked at my one follower, NJF, who I assume is Nick. I love your background. I played your song for Jim. He got a kick out of it and even took the time to look up the lyrics. Although, neither of you are geeks. It was great seeing you at Thanksgiving. I wish we would have had more time to visit. Good luck in school and at work. I hope to see you at Christmas time.
