Hello, everyone. Sorry for not posting for so long. We had a very good, though seemingly long, week. Jonathan has been busy studying for his final in his correspondence course. His test is Thursday. Today he starts a new math class. He will have class from 5:15 to 7:30 every Monday and Wednesday night for 8 weeks. I am happy that he won't have to do another course by correspondence but I will miss having dinner together!
We did well this week on our fitness goals. Jonathan worked out and I ran three days last week. (I'm up to 5 miles in 30 minutes and ran for 1:20 last Saturday!) I have also progressed to the Intermediate level in Astanga (power) Yoga. I am really loving it.

Saturday Jonathan and I had lunch downtown. It is such a lovely restaurant and the food is wonderful. Jonathan even ate some veggies!
The spring rolls were incredible.
Sunday I made my new favorite recipe. Indian Flatbread (
parathas) and Vegetable Rice Curry. Above are the parathas in step two of the process. You roll out the dough, spread some sauteed garlic oil on it, then roll them up like cigars and twist into rolls. Then you roll them out flat and cook them in a skillet. Yummy!
The cooked parathas and vegetable rice curry. The curry is composed of rice, chickpeas, garlic, green pepper, green beans, and corn. I am hooked on this now!
This is what Zoie did all week and weekend. I wouldn't mind to trade places with her sometimes!
On Saturday night we went out to celebrate my acceptance to MU. We went to dinner and had some wonderful food. 
Zoie did what she always does... sleep, eat, and poop. She's awfully cute though! 
We had a long three-day weekend spending time with familyt. Above are Jonathan and Rachel, Dad and Anja. Jonathan and Rachel are re-living their childhoods by playing Nintendo games on the Mac.
Yes, it's Jonathan with braids. He is so good at humoring me!

Rachel and Jeremy. It was nice to see them this weekend. Our schedules are completely opposite so it's a real treat to get together. We all enjoyed Outback for dinner.

Zoie was too sleepy to stay up for the New Year.
We played Jenga on New Year's Eve...
I won.

Amanda and me getting ready to go downtown to the art galleries.
On Saturday we took Amanda home and then went to stay the rest of the weekend with family. Our youngest nephew Grayson was there, as well as Mikaela. Here he is below with Uncle Jonathan, showing us a peek of his Buddha belly.
He loves his big sister.
It's never too early to learn to brush, even if you only have 4 teeth!
A happy baby.
Oh no, I'm discovered!
