Lately it's been pretty busy for Conrad and I. Conrad is back in school and I have been working at the speech clinic for a month now. Both of us had such a long break its been kinda hard to get back into the swing of things.
So far I really like my job, I work two days a week in the Clinic and 3 days out of the week I go to the kids homes and do therapy there. I was a little skeptical about doing the home base therapy, okay I was really skeptical. As someone who watches the show Criminal Minds I had a lot of different scenarios in my head of what type of homes I would be going to or what could happen to me. It didn't help that there have been several episodes with the crimes happening in Phoenix, it's all fictional but still, it makes ya wonder why they keep using Phoenix. Don't ask me why I watch that show, I am already paranoid enough as it is ha! Anyway,it's nothing like what I imagined. I actually really like going to the homes, all of the families are great and the kids are adorable and so sweet, I've only had one kid hit me ha ha. Even though I feel safe at the homes I still have mace on my key chain ready to go if I need it :) I really like working in the clinic as well they just moved into a new building and it is so fun and huge! literally every wall has a painting of different cartoons. Its just fun to walk around and look at everything.
Conrad is not liking school as much as I am liking work. He is already burned out. I would be too though, he is usually at school from 7 am to 8 or 9 at night then when he finally does come home he still has more reading to do. I don't know how he does it, I wouldn't survive.
I took a picture of my typical view every night. I come home from work and sit on the couch and watch my shows, Conrad comes home from school and does this....
Poor guy.
We did have some fun this past weekend, on Friday we went out to dinner with some friends then saw the movie Chronicle. It was alright. Then of course there was the Super Bowl! We made a bunch of junk food and then realized we didn't even have the channel to watch it NOOOOOOOOO! Honestly, we didn't really care, I actually didn't even know who was playing in the game until the day before. I don't know if that is something I should admit but it is true. I only look forward to the Super Bowl because of the food which we had, so it was all good. I mean the food is the most important part anyway, who even cares about the football part right?
So that is our life right now. Chloe hasn't adjusted well to both of us being gone for so long during the day. I have to say though, it is sure fun to come home to an excited little puppy jumping 3 feet in the air flailing her body around like a fish jumping out of water :)
Here are some pics of the Clinic, I just can't get over how cute it looks inside.
These are some of the speech and occupational therapy rooms.
This is part of the physical therapy room.
This wall is one of my favorites. It's one of the walls in the physical therapy gym.
More of the speech therapy rooms.
And another one of my favorite walls.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year
Our lovely vacation in Utah has come to an end. We had so much fun spending time with our families.
We went to the Up house, made rock album covers, played a lot of board games, went and saw 4 movies in the theater (I would have to say Mission Impossible was my favorite). We ate at Cafe Rio 4 times, shopped til we dropped ate lots and lots of junk food, watched the first and only season of the T.V. show Outsourced(very funny show) and did I metion we played a lot of board games?
This year we spent Christmas Eve with Conrads family. We had a big tastey dinner then we all shared our testimonies. After that the grandchildren acted out the story of the birth of Christ while it was read from the Bible.
Violet and Preston as Joseph and Mary
All the cousins
We spent Christmas day with my family. We woke up early opened our presents and went to church. It was a nice relaxing day. We watched movies and played games and lounged around in our pajamas.
Off to Church.
Amber and Chloe. Chloe was a big hit with my mom and sisters.
My mom LOVED Chloe. Ha ha this picture makes me laugh.
Best friends!
We spent New Years Eve with Conrad's family. Every year they have a big party with lots of yummy food and fun games. Around 10:00 we had fake New Years for the little kids and we did the count down with them and blew the horns for about 10 minutes. By the end my ears were ringing ha. After the kids went to bed we palyed games and rock band and brought in the new year with Ryan Secrest and Dick Clark.
The kids blowing their horns in Conrads face.
Every year Conrad gets two horns and blows as hard as he can. It sounds like a dying duck it is so funny and yet annoying at the same time.
Happy New Year!!!
It was a fun vacation but now it is back to reality. I will finally start my new job next week which I am both excited and terrified about. Conrad doesn't start school until the 30th the lucky duck. I am slighlty jealous okay maybe really jealous.
I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Photo Shoot Fun
One of the benefits of having a dad who is a professional photographer is that you get to be in fun photo shoots such as these...
My dad thought it would be fun to copy some famous albums. The first one we copied was Queen 2.
The original Queen 2 album
Then we did Weezer. Pretty good ehh?
The original Weezer album.
Then the Joshua Tree U2 or as my dad named it "The Johnson Tree stU2" ha ha
And the original U2 album.
It is a lot harder than it looks to try and copy a photo. Compliments to my dad, for coming up with the idea. We had a lot of fun taking these.
