Wow. It has been WAY too long since I posted anything. A lot has happened. I hosted my first Christmas Eve dinner for 16 people. All I can say was that I am so glad I took the day off work and everything turned out AWESOME!!!
This was our first Christmas as a family. Waking up with the kids in the morning was the best feeling ever. We spent the day at Mike's sister's house for breakfast and the evening at his parents. It was a very nice day all in all. But I am so glad it is over.
New Years Eve was kinda blah. But it turned out good. We invited a bunch of people over last minute. Only a few showed and were all gone before midnight. So it ended up just being Mike and I by the bonfire at midnight which was actually pretty awesome. We kind of reflected on the last year and how far we have come and what is in store.

I figured out that I am graduating in June with my bachelors in accounting. It has been a long 3 years and I am over it. But I decided that I am going on for my Masters. It will be worth it because it has been my goal since I started this whole process. Even though I may not fully use it, I am going for my CPA. My goal is to hopefully only work part time doing accounting and doing what I love as a BeachBody coach full time. I have a goal that by the end of the year I will be working closer to home. I hate being so far from my family. I hate that when I get home from work we have dinner and the kids have to go to bed. And then Mike and I only have about a half hour before Mike goes to bed because he get up so early. I am focusing on expanding my business. I see my goal I have my focus. I know that I can do it.

I took Brooklyn to get the first haircut that she will remember. We had a Kassie Brooklyn morning. We went to breakfast, got haircuts and then got our nails done. We had so much fun. And is getting so big.
It really made me realize that I am establishing the relationship with her that I never had with my own mom. Things have really been coming up a lot lately from my past and I am finally realizing that I need to deal with things. So I start counseling Saturday. I am so thankful that I have Mike in my life. He is such a rock for me and is willing to stick with me through all of my crazy. I never thought that I would find love like his.
I think that is all that has happened. Now that you are all caught up I think I am done rambling :)
