Happy New Year!

So Christmas is over, its know 2008 and I start my second semester of school in Boston in less then a week which is why i am soooo grateful for the opportunity i have had to be home hanging with the family and seeing old friends. this post is mostly for me to remember an amazing Christmas break but hopefully it will entertain a few of you as well... so here is a list of top memories
1 Playing rock band at my old young women leader's house listening to her sing, me ATTEMPTING the drums...i might add i always wanted to play the drums but my mom made me do the piano because you can't play the drums in Sac. Meeting... Boo i know!
2 Watching my dad,brothers, cousins, old friends all weight in as they start the biggest loser ( and my i add all these people are not small people.. we family owns grocery stores people its not all our faults :)
3 Playing the Wii and bowling with my 5 and 3 year old nephew who i may add got higher scores then me... every time people.... although the real high for me... beating my oldest brother in tennis and boxing... know this is great because my brother has been playing the wii non stop since we got them and i have only slightly been practicing.. i would say the best part was when he called Casey and was sooo mad he lost to me... yes!!
4.getting my hair cut!!! it was much needed!!!
5.staying up late with my friend Jeff... we have been best friends for years and he is really the only friend from high school i really see and care about....
6.staying up late and sleeping way in!!! I love that life... i tried convincing my mom into letting me quit school and just move into their basement... but she said no... bummer i know
7.laughing and laughing and laughing and smiling with my nephews and nieces... they are honestly the best people i know.. i could hang with them everyday.. i had to explain to my one nephew jackson the difference between Aunt Jo and Ant jo.... he was struggling and i will never forget. also having him zip up his coat and then tell me he didn't even have to go to zipping lessons... or watching Life with Ryan with london (5) as he tells me Tony Hawk is way better then Ryan hahah Having my Niece call every Girl with brown Hair Aunt Joanna.... including my sister in law kacey :) Watching my nephew Sherman eat everything on the floor hahah i love kids who crawl... Holding and seeing my two new nieces and they are beautiful!
9. watching my mom play santa and getting 5 wii's for my brothers and me
10.Hanging with all 4 of my brothers... these are the 4 most amazing men i know. i love them so much and am so grateful to have them in my life... they mean the world to me... some people always felt bad i didn't have sisters but when you have these 4 people in your life you don't need sisters... they protect me and cheer for me and would do anything for me... its a pretty amazing feeling.... i am soooo blessed!!!! 2007 was great and i have a feeling 2008 is going to be even better!!!
