Hallelujah

This semester has been so busy (hense the lack of frequent posts) and today was my last day! It's been fun at times though and a part of me is sad to have some of my classes be over. For those of you who don't know, I'm an Interior Design major, and it is sooooo time consuming. I love it though. We did a few group projects this semester... The first one we did was called the Ogden project. Ogden city knocked down 6 full city blocks and came to us to come up with a design/use for the area to change the stereotype about Ogden. We designed condos, a trolley station, a river walk, an activity center, and restaurants and shops. Our project turned out really good (at least I think it did) and I will post the renderings of it later. Then we did a project called the Real Estate Challenge. We had to come up with any real estate development in Utah that we think would make a profit. My group decided to take the old Elk Meadows ski resort by Beaver, Ut and build a lodge on it for people to stay. After doing tons of research about the property and if our development would be profitable we designed the lodge and rooms. I also designed a medical spa and did all the construction documents for it.

That's pretty much what I've been up to lately. Chris has still just been working hard at the real estate office. He got a promotion and is on salary now. We haven't been doing much of anything else except for school and work. Yeah we're boring I know. On a funny note, Braxon is 90% height on the charts and 80% weight. How did I get such a big kid?! haha I guess that's where Chris comes in.

We are enjoying the holiday season and so is Braxon. He's so excited for Santa to come and he told us the other day that he likes Christmas music. He loves all our decorations and has already broken a few. I'm so glad I can just relax for a few weeks and enjoy the season! Happy Holidays everyone!
