I apologize for failing so miserably at blogging.
I'm not going to try and catch up on all the details that have happened since September, but I'll try and hit the highlights of the couple months I've neglected.
October:
10.10.2012
It may not seem like a big deal to some, but Chris and I finally got a washer and dryer! The dryer has been acting up a lot lately and we're probably going to need to get another, but the point is, we got our first one and no longer have to go to the laundromat or someone else's house to wash our clothes!
I never thought I'd be so happy to be able to do laundry in the comfort of my own home.
Month of October
Chris started training for his first 5k, and I trained with him as often as I could. When he first started, he was lucky to be able to run for 3 minutes. I'd don't a 5k before and was a little better at running, but before long, he was running alongside me the whole time!

I was just under 18 the last presidential election, and this year I was able to let my voice be heard and place a ballot in the presidential election. It was one of the hardest things I had to vote for, not only because I was basically putting in my input for the future leader of the free world, but also because I felt so split with both candidates. There were things about Obama I really agreed with, but other things I hated. With Romney, he had ideas I thought were brilliant, but there were things about him I thought were ridiculous too. In the end, I weighed the pros and cons to both men, and cast my vote in the 2012 election.

To celebrate my 22nd birthday, my wonderful hubby bought me tickets to see Bill Engvall at Firelake Grand Casino in Shawnee! He's one of my favorite comedians and it was an incredibly funny show. Plus, Chris gave me $80 to play on at the casino, and on the back of our tickets were offers for $10 match play. I only ended up walking out about $20 up, but hey, $20 is $20!
11.17.2012
All of Chris' training lead up to his first 5k, and he finished! I'm so proud of him and I hope we can do one together next time.
11.22.2012
Chris and I both had to work Thanksgiving this year, so instead of having dinner, Chris made us a Thanksgiving lunch. He made the whole meal by himself, and it was incredible! He made way too much food, and we had leftovers for quite a while, plus we were able to give one of my co-workers some food too, seeing as she came over for a little bit to come with me to work.
December:
12.16-21.2012
My best friend came out to visit me! While she was out, we went to the Chickasha Festival of Lights and to Bricktown for some Okie-style clubbing. We shared a lot of laughs, and it was great to have her back. We stayed up every night talking for hours, just catching up and getting each other up-to-date. I was sad to see her go back to San Diego, but it was fun while she was here.

The world didn't end! Sorry Mayans...
12.22.2012
Jeanette threw the First Annual Fields Family and Friends Christmas Ball and it was great! We all dressed up in formal clothes and danced the night away to Christmas music, with the Cha-Cha slide threw in after much pleading from Chelsea and more resistance from Jeanette. There was a photobooth and lots of delicious food and I'm already looking forward to next year's ball.
Since January is still happening, I'll save this month's activities for a more detailed posting in the near future.
I'm making a mid-January New Years resolution to be better at blogging!
I promise!
