The Happenings of Matt and Maren

It's been a while...a lot has happened since last October. In short, I graduated (finally) and I am half way through my bachelors program. We spent Christmas with both families and enjoyed the time off together. I turned 22, Matt made me breakfast in bed and gave me some nice waterproof boots. The new year flew by. We went to Carmina Burana, and then Sleeping Beauty for Valentines Day (Matt just can't get enough of the Classics). We climbed...and climb a lot, our bodies are usually sore and our hands scream at us occasionally. Now, Matt's Birthday is in a few days and I am going to plan something super amazing (ideas welcome). There are a million and seven birthdays in Matt's family in March, so I want to make sure his doesn't blend in with the rest of them! Matt is busy with school, pretty much all the time. He is taking 20 credit hours so he can finish up next Spring. His life basically consists of me (his number one priority:), school, food, sleep, and rock climbing! (We really can not get enough of it, we have a membership so we consider it our "free" form of entertainment- it really isn't free-we just trick ourselves into thinking that I guess).

And...if that wasn't exciting enough Caitlan gets home soon! Yay! I need to start making her welcome home sign so I can bedazzle her. Here are a few pictures from October-December.

Matt and I at the pumpkin patch, we got perfect pumpkins. I carved a typical pumpkin face and Matt carved some sort of Halo design. He doesn't even play Halo, but he found the picture on Google images and thought it was cool...his 6 year old nephew liked it anyways.

All the girls, except Caitlan of course went to Thriller, this girl was creepy...all of them were creepy.

Creepy Girl with McKenna, you would be scared too.

Best present ever! Mac and I got bump its!!! I wear mine every day, some times I even double stack them for extra volume. Thanks Christina, I don't know what sort of a rat's nest I would have to create without them.
