Halfway Through

The moment has finally come when we can say that Roy is halfway through Law School. We are very, very, very excited about that! Not that the halfway point marks anything more than about 16 classes, countless books, and about 6 weeks of stressing through finals, but we are excited to say we have survived thus far. It's not really fair for me to say that I have survived law school (though I sometimes feel like I should get some kind of spouse's degree because of all the random law information I now have stored in my brain), but Roy has most definitely survived and done well. For those of you who know Roy at all know that he doesn't get giddy very often, but he was giddy when he walked in from his last final on Wednesday night. It was so fun to see him so excited! We are very excited not only to be halfway done and through this round of finals, but we are thrilled to have a Christmas break together.

Although he did a bit of complaining at first, Roy is very grateful for the "to do" list I created for us to complete over Christmas. We managed to knock a few things off the list in the last couple of days, including finishing our Christmas shopping, doing our laundry, and installing the car seat. So, Abby, we are now very ready for you! Your car seat is in the car, your clothes in the dresser, and every morning we wake up wondering if today is the day we get to meet...we are 1 1/2 weeks away from the due date (January 1).

That is the update on the Zwahlens. If you have complaints about our "boring" day-to-day life blogs, I apologize, but blame Sarah :) who reminds me that she checks our blog every other day. Hopefully, we will soon have more fun stories and experiences to share as Abby should soon (and who doesn't like to talk about her baby?).

Here is a picture of Sarah, Annie, Tena, Carrie, and I at my Utah baby shower:
