Ummm....Merry Christmas

Sorry, I'm a little slow at posting these. I've been a little busy....
To celebrate the holiday season, some of the dental hygiene girls got together to have an ugly sweater party....always a good idea, right? WRONG! Good idea unless you're the only one who knows how to dress up for these things. I went all out! Ugly sweater, pink lipstick, cheap jewelry, blue eyeshadow, etc etc. I don't know if I'm more ashamed that I was the only one who took this so serious or because I had all this crap on hand to complete the look.

Here is Aimee's Son Keaton, who is so adorable. He LOVED having so many girls around so he took advantage of it. Here he is taking a piece of Sarah and Sarah taking like a woman.


Kelsey and Sarah


We did this thing where you put your chin up to your chest and you take a picture.
It's really entertaining but so unflattering.
Sarah
Kelsey, she couldn't quite figure it out.
Instead she looks like she's from the ring except less ethnic.
She plays by her own rules....
Family opt

Before flying home to Arizona, Sarah and I took the train to Portland to hang out for a few days.
It was my first time on the train and it's pretty amazing!*
*Not really!

Portland!
Joe and I
Francesca, Joe and I

This is at the hotel in Downtown called the Nines.
Joe is dating the guy who designed it so he took us for a tour...
I would love to stay there...maybe when I have an income :)

Deanna graduated from Nursing school. I am so proud of you! We'll have to post-pone our victory vacation until 2011 but you'd better believe we're going to go! So start saving? Greece? Mexico? Canada? Where you wanna go? (don't say Canada)
Vince and I went to see the Zoolights one night with his sister and daughter, and some of her friends. Seriously, don't waste your money. It was like 10 bucks to get in and the lights weren't cool. The best part was paying 20 bucks on food. Seriously.

I was so sick the next day....empty stomach + 5 pound bag of Cotton candy=death

Here's Abby with her bestie Mattie throwing gang signs. Don't mess, she's tough and hard!

Vincent's mom threw this holiday/Sam's birthday dinner thing at streets of new york.
It was a lot of fun!
Jenn got a little out of control...but she's okay now.
Jenn, it's rude to make jokes about handicap children, they can't help it.

Sabrina and Frankie
You're not even looking at the camera!!!
She is the cutest preggo I've ever seen, besides Shanna.
Vince and I
I'm not the biggest fan of this picture...I look like I just raced to eat a whole cake.
i.e. I look more preggers than Sabrina :(

It was so nice to see everyone on Christmas. Lindsey and Chris came from LA

Jake and Leah came from Tuscon

Deanna and Mike drove up the street with the family
And everyone's favorite person came from Oregon!!
While in AZ I got to meet Vincent's new niece Scarlett Eve Consentino
She is seriously the cutest baby EVER! (outside of my family, of course)
She's only a month old! I am in love!
(She's crying because she doesn't want me to leave not because I'm holding her awkward. You're awkward.)

Now I'm back in Oregon after 18 hours of traveling. I will never do that again! School has started and I'm already swamped-6 classes and three labs. But mom and I have a deal. If I make the President's List she will buy me a plane ticket home. I just need to get above a 3.70....is that possible? Well, I'm holding you to that, mom.

Oh and for some post-Christmas gift ideas....
I'm in love with these shoes. But I'm poor so someone should buy them for me
And I would love one of these purses. There is a website that sells them wholesale for 30$ if you get at least 10. Anyone wanna go in on some purses? They have a million more on their website. Cute purses

First, you dont even look bad with your ugly sweater. You look pretty. Second, what is a family opt? Third, I like your pictures. Fourth, I'm going to stop numbering each sentance starting now. Thanks on the graduation wishes, are you paying for my ticket? And can Mike come. I think I would pick mexico because I love their tacos, especially bucket tacos. But I also like baby lamb from Greece. Tough call.
Love,
Deanna

Your friend Sarah looks like the girl that was eliminated on the Bachelor. Does she usually say "Hello" by doing an awkward salsa dance instead of shaking hands?

And no, I didn't get braces. I don't need them to look like I just started menstrating. THANK YOU.

Deanna, I said start saving! We can go to either. Mike can come if Vince can come. I'm glad you like my pictures.
