The Shuler Family: December 2011

Well, obviously I am REALLY bad at this blogging thing, so instead of trying to get caught up, which would take FOREVER, I thought I would just start from now with maybe a little update. Then, I will try my hardest to keep up with this blog for those of you who still read this (Dad) :) I know I have said that before, so I wouldn't totally hold your breath, but I am going to make an effort!!

So my totally awesome sister-in-law Julie Shuler took these awesome pictures for my family. She did such a great job. If you need a photographer, she is amazing!!! Thanks Julie!!!! Also, thanks to my nephew Jaivri who did an awesome job getting my girls to smile after a long time of taking pictures. Most of the cutest smiles are because Jaivri was in the background goofing off so they would smile.

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE these pictures!!!!

For a little update...

Joe is working hard at his 3 jobs. He loves spending time with his girls.

I am currently unemployed. Due to budget cuts, my position was eliminated so my last day was December 14. It ended up being ok though. I am going to start going to school full-time in January. I have two more semesters to get my associates degree, then I will start the teaching program next fall. I am excited to be going to school again. I am just worried because it has been about 5 years since I have been in school full-time. I am totally excited though! I love school!

Aly started preschool this year and is absolutely LOVING it!! She is learning so much and making new friends. I cannot believe that she is going to be starting kindergarten next year! I am getting too old!!!

Brianna is still in the midst of the terrible two's. She is a total sweetheart when she wants to be, but she can be quite the bully too. I am constantly having to get after her for biting or hitting or scratching or digging. Hopefully since she is almost 3, the terrible two's won't last too much longer.
