A Lot to Celebrate!

It has been a while since my last post, but as Christmas nears, things tend to get more and more hectic. Jake and I flew to New Mexico on Sunday and Tim will be driving here this coming weekend. I have missed a lot of exciting things to post about in the past week or so, so I'm going to get caught up now!

First of all - today Jake is FOUR MONTHS OLD!!! Wow, can you believe it??? He is growing like a weed and his personality is really starting to show. I think he's going to be a little comedian with the way he cracks himself up :)

Second, I must send a BIG HUGE CONGRATS out to my dad who last week defended his doctoral dissertation and is now DR. Buyok!!! He has worked his butt off these past few years and I am so proud of him and his accomplishment!

Third, my dear friend Jana (also my little sis from my collegiate Pi Phi days) graduated this past weekend from New Mexico State! Yay! Congrats lil', I hope you achieve all your dreams in the "real" world :)

Fourth, I am so thankful that my family members that have been in the hospital are now released! My sweet little cousin was in a car accident and had to be in ICU for a while, but she is now home and doing well. Also, my Grandma had surgery and then later was readmitted into the hospital but she was also released and is doing much better. I hope you both continue to feel better and better each day! Can't wait to see you both!

Last, but not least, CONGRATS to my little brother who got straight A's this semester! Keep up the good work Alan!

I will try to get some pics up soon. To be honest, I haven't taken too many (I know, terrible, huh?). I will be seeing lots of friends and family in the next two weeks so you will get your fix soon! Hope everyone is doing well!

Love,
Steph
