Don't forget!

This season, everyone should take the time to Elf Yourself!
http://www.elfyourself.com/
It definitely brings a laugh! We loved doing it for the nieces and nephews :)

Christmas time is here!

I think... THINK... FINALLY we are done buying things. I think that we must be amazon's number 1 customer. We've gotten about 20 packages from them in the past 12 days he he he.
but thank goodness its over. i love christmas, but I really get sick of shopping (gasp! Women never get sick of shopping!)
Well I figure I should put a couple more days down.
Day 16
A song that makes you cry-
Well... there are lots for me. If its really meaningful and it comes at the right moment, it will make me cry. The last song that made me cry was actually played in the biggest loser. I can't remember what it was though. ha ha so we'll just skip this one.
Day 17- 10 songs that you would find on shuffle on your ipod.
Well, you'd probably find some
we shot the moon
30 seconds to mars
lady ga ga (im sorry i hear it all the time at the gym, its addictive)

I dont know, upbeat stuff, cuz I'm always exercising to it. If not, you'd probably find some book on tape like harry potter.
Day 18-
Dreams and goals:
Adam wants to finish school and then get a job somewhere in computers. He wants to bulk up more and he wants to be a yoga instructor and a daddy
Jessica wants to be a mommy, a zumba teacher, a personal trainer (with an actual job... cross fingers! we'll hear from anytime fitness soon I think!), organized, and losing a couple pounds here would be nice.
Day 19- Nicknames
Jessica- Jess, Jessie, Jessica and sometimes aunt jessica
Adam gets called Adam man, Williams, and Adam and sometimes uncle adam
Day 20- Pic of your family recently:
I'll include this one in a little bit
Day 21-A recipe.
Well, we love turkey burgers. So here's our recipe (that we stole from the P90X diet book)
8 oz raw turkey
1 t Worcestershire sauce
3 T buttermilk
3-4 T sourdough bread crumbs
1 T dijon mustard
2 T chopped green onions

Mix all together, grill on griddle (or our outside grill. love it) for 8-10 min each side (or until done) add cheese if desired. Dress and place on a bun or lettuce! enjoy!
Day 22- Story behind our blogs name
Well, there is no story actually. I was just looking for a good blog, and I couldn't think of what to call it, and its the first thing that came to mind. Sorry.

So, now I'll tell some stories.
It snowed a couple days ago (cursed rain, it melted it all)
and Adam and I thought it would be fun to go play in it. We had, of course, just finished all our finals and needed a way to celebrate. So we hit the DI, got all our snow gear, and then went to the park close to our house. We made a snowman... or something like that. It started out as a normal snowman, but it turns out we can't make anything normal so our snowman ended up getting a long neck (a wooden post we found nearby) and then a tiny head. It got crazy hair from sticks that were nearby, and eyes from dandelions, and a leaf for a brain, and a stick for a mouth. We named here Amelia the Christmas Witch. Observe.

So thats what you get when you get adam and I together and tell us to make a snowman. Oh she also has a blue bow, and arms made from those electrical fence flags.

We are both very excited for this week! It our anniversary this wednesday and then christmas too! I can't believe its already been a year. It went by so fast. We are loving it all the time :) I couldn't have asked for a better husband!

Merry Christmas everyone!

A couple more days behind.

Ok so here I am catching up again :)

Day 13: Someone/ Something that has made the most impact on your life. We both decided it was ...

The Church! (NO WAY! right?)

Day 14: A pic of someplace you've been:
Adam:

Ukraine. I dont think this pic is taken in kyiv. in fact im pretty sure its not. But thats where he went!

Jessica: California.

I know I know, its not so exciting. i haven't been too many places in my life.

Day 15: Things you would find in your backpack/purse.

Adam:  Computer, Clif Bar, pencils, other sweet technology things.
Jessica: Hair ties, gym pass, notebook to doodle and plan out my day on, and probably some gym clothes (if you look in my backpack, not my purse)

Last week of classes

So this is the last week of classes. I must admit that I am excited to get out of this semester and into the break! Its almost our one year anniversary! Just a couple more weeks!
Adam is finally done with his InTex week. Let me tell you, I thought it would never end. Every day, I came home to adam and his group studying and working meticulously on their project. I think they spent on average about 10 hours a day doing homework. I am glad that its over and I have my husband back!
This week, not much is going on at the moment. I did really enjoy my stress management class today. We were talking about self-hypnosis and autogenics. We then laid down to practice autogenics. All i remember was my teacher saying something about closing our eyes, relaxing and imagining our arms were heavy. Next thing, it was fifteen minutes later and my teacher was telling us to get up. Best day ever.
I really should catch up on the days i've missed. So here are some.
Day 6: A picture of you and your friends:













Day 7: A Photo that makes you happy

Day 8: A photo that makes you sad

Adam is getting attacked by a wild pig

Day 10:
