Clean Slate

I'm exhausted, but I'm in the mood to update. So what I'm going to do is sort of a... picture book drive-by telling of the past two months. First off, Christmas!

Markley Family Christmas:


Yeah... that's about how Willie spent it. =P

Though there was some of this too:


And LOTS of this:


King Family Christmas:


Hadley


Sam


The sock


Sam, my dad, and the Grand Canyon


And my mommy!

So yes, Christmas in Vegas. When we got back we were sick. Well, more specifically, I was EXTREMELY sick while Willie was mildly annoyed by his runny nose. Post-being in bed for six days with a fever of 104 we moved back to Alabama. Since getting here, we've absolutely hit the ground running as far as job hunting goes. I just got my substitute teacher's license, and Willie will hopefully have a full time position at the local bank soon. Once that's done, hopefully we'll be able to straighten out finances and do away with six months of building money stresses. With any luck, we'll also establish a fair cushion for when we both start back school full time in the fall. In honor of looking professional and the like, we both had to do a little cleaning up.

Here's Willie all dressed and pressed with his new hair cut:



I think he looks cute as hell, but he says the pictures make him look awkward. Oh yes, and I chopped off all my hair as well:



I think I look horribly awkward in those pictures... but Willie insists I'm cute as hell. ;)

Anyway, that's the quick end of it on the factual side. Most exciting part of it all are the jobs, I suppose. Jobs are good... I've missed jobs.
