My Birthday + Christmas

I'm a little behind....so I'm just going to post a ton of pictures from the past month to try and catch up!
The past two years I've gotten to go to Jordan's work party. He works for Vision Solutions and the party is always a blast! They have a yankee swap with awesome prizes (we got a TV), pizza, and a movie. This year we went to see the Hobbit. I'm grateful Jordan has such an awesome boss and coworkers. It always makes work parties enjoyable :)

As I've said before, birthdays at the Hansen's are always fun. Here are some of the highlights:
*Opening presents at midnight
*Going out to dinner with my family to the Spaghetti Factory
*Getting mani's and pedi's with my mom
*Eating dinner at the Cheesecake Factory even thought we had to wait over an hour (thanks Jord)
*Getting Jeremy Evan's signed shoe
*Having the day off on my birthday and being able to just read and relax
I'm so grateful for my amazing family who made my birthday so great!
Lately, I've been quite obsessed with crafts. I guess it just gives me something to do! Here are some of the things I made for Christmas/January. The Wood Connection has become one of my favorite stores!
For Christmas Eve, we went to Jordan's dad's for dinner. Afterwards we went to my Grandma's to open presents, dance around the Christmas tree, and eat dessert. Jordan thinks its hilarious that we sing and dance around the Christmas tree, but I've grown up loving to do it. It's something I look forward to every year.
When we got home from my grandma's I wasn't feeling too good. I figured I just ate something bad, but woke up in the middle of the night with the flu. Christmas is probably the worst day of the year to get sick. No Christmas brunch, no gift exchange, no visiting family. Haha really though, so sad! I'm hoping next year will be 100x better!
Some of our favorites: Jordan's watch, and my ring!
We also got this bad boy! At the end of last semester my laptop decided to not work anymore. So for my birthday, Jordan's Christmas, and my Christmas we got a macbook pro from my mom, and his parents. I'm so happy I have a computer that works now, and the fact that it's a macbook just makes it that much more awesome :)
