The reason for the Season....
This morning as I was checking up on some friends blogs, I realized how I never post anything of real importance. This time of year is so emotional for me and I am not sure why. When I hear certain songs on the radio, while driving to work at 3am, I will literally begin to cry. Breath of Heaven, Mary Did You Know(sung by Kenny Rogers) and Believe(sung by Josh Groben) never fail to get the tears flowing.
This year is a time for loving each other and for missing the ones that are no longer here physically. December 16th always has a special place in my heart for two reasons. This is my Grams Rasmussen's birthday and the day my Grandpa Fleming passed away. I miss them both so much! I know they are both in heaven watching over me and my entire family.....heck, I think Uncle Rob was sent to heaven to teach Grandpa Fleming the truth! I know there is a reason for this season! I know it is to celebrate the birth of our Savior but I also believe it is a time to celebrate the lives of all those who have gone before us. As this season nears to the end, I pray that we can have the Christmas Spirit all year through.

Today is the DAY!!!!
Well folks, today is the big day! Moussa is leaving for Mali for 3 weeks. It is really important for him to be able to do this because it has been so long since he has been home. I wish I could go with him but the tickets are just too expensive.
So the end of the semester has arrived for me! My last final was last night. Surprisingly, I feel like I did pretty well on all of my finals. YES, including my biology final. I will find out Monday what I got on it.
That is pretty much all for now but I will try to be better at blogging.....

Life since July....
So here I am sitting at my computer trying to do my research paper for english and got sidetracked by my blog(never a good thing)...So much has happened since July. Moussa's sister Kadi came to visit and was here until October 2nd. She and Moussa have a great relationship. It was nice to see him laugh so much. Moussa and I have both started school at UVU. He only have about 2 semesters until he has his 2nd bachelors, that's right, second. I am currently taking English 2010, Biology 1010, Math 950(Prealgebra....) and Student Success. I have too many semesters left to count!
In September, my mom, Kalie and I took a trip to Florida for a much needed vacation and visit to Nathan, Amber and little Garrett. We had a blast. We went to the beach a few times, played in the hotel pool A LOT and went fishing off the boardwalk. Kalie caught 2 fish. The first one was very pretty. It had a yellow tail and kind of reminded me of Finding Nemo(the movie, not the fish). It was so nice to see my little brother and his cute family. I miss them so much. Especially since Garrett is now so full of energy. While we were there, Garrett became used to us coming to his house and by the third day, his face would light up with excitement when we walked in the door. I love that little guy!
Just a few weeks ago, my mom, me, Brandon, Wendy, Chase and my dad went up Provo Canyon to ride the Haunted Creeper(Heber Creeper). It was fun. Chase dressed up in his Halloween costume. This year, he has decided to be Darth Vador, mask is included! While we were on the ride, there were a few characters that scared Chase to tears. However, once he put that mask on, he began yelling back at the "scary people". It was by far, the funniest thing I have ever seen. Overall, we had a great time!
I am still working at StubHub and love it!! Moussa is still at Xango and he likes his job.
Well that is it for now. As things happen, I will try and find the time to post them so I don't have to do 3 months worth in a day.

Tell All Tuesday....
Not much has been going on but since I never post anything I guess we will see what I have to say.
A few weeks ago I went to Lagoon with my mom, Brandon, Wendy, Chase, my dad and Erin(for a little while as she had to work). It was actually pretty fun. I did not go on too many rides but had fun watching Chase enjoy them. I think I will probably go again this summer.
Moussa successfully got a car!!! It actually runs...LOL. It is a 1992 Honda Civic. We are now considering ourselves "the Honda" family. As long as it runs we are happy with it. Moussa officially starts graduate school in July. We are so excited for him to start. It will take him 18 months. When he is finished, he will have his Masters in Business with an emphasis in accounting and his CPA. I am very proud of him for being motivated! He is still loving his job.
I have started my job and am getting used to working 40 hour work weeks again. It is nice to be able to go to work and leave work at work. I am not on call nor do I have to work any extra hours and not get paid for the job I do. I am still at Moosie's Woodworks on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 3pm-7pm. The extra money is NICE!!! Moussa and I were thinking about moving closer to work and school but have decided to stay in our apartment. It is hard to find a nice place with free cable and internet. The only downside to staying there is we still have to pay for laundry or go to mom's house. I have to say, at first I was kinda bummed that we are staying in Provo but now, mom and I are carpooling to work/school and I LOVE IT! It gives mom and I a chance to catch up on each other's lives(not that mine is that exciting).
June 26th is coming quickly.....that would be Moussa and my 1 year anniversary. I cannot believe it has been a year already! It feels like we have been married for a few months.
That is about all I have to say at this point. I guess it was more than I expected it to be...haha. I hope you all have a fantastic week!!!!

"Tell All" Tuesday
For some reason I keep thinking today is Wednesday....not sure why.
Not much to tell this week.
Moussa still does not have a car as the car he got SUCKED and was returned. I started my job at Ebay and like it. My schedule is Thursday thru Monday. I thought it was going to be a call center but it turns out it is strictly email. That was GOOD news!!!!
Moussa and I will need to move because our lives are pretty much up between Highland and Sandy. I have found a few apartments to look at so wish us luck!!!!
Tune in for more "tell all" Tuesday next week.
