The Worst Christmas Song Ever!

There is no contest...this is the absolute worse Christmas song ever! We have had some good laughs over this one!

Our new apartment

I finally took some pictures of our new apartment. I snuck one of Major in there too! We love our new apartment so far. It is VERY tiny, but also brand-spankin new! And it's in such a wonderful area. We are really close to uptown, lots of shops, lots of restaurants, and lots of bars, oh and I can't forget...lots of gays too! haha, yes we are in gay-central-there's even a gay bar about 100 feet from us!

Baylor Football!

Well, what a season we had this year! FINALLY, we had a pretty exciting year as a Baylor Bear Fan! Anyways, the last game was a bust because OU pummeled us, but we were there anyways. My parents, Jordan's parents, and Jason were all there. My aunt and uncle were kind enough to give us thier tickets to their box so even though we lost horribly, we were up there having a good time.

Baylor plays in the Texas Bowl in Houston, and we are so going!!!! So cheer us on and SIC EM!

Knee Update

It's amazing the difference in quality we have seen between Army and civilian doctors! The first thing we did when we got new insurance was get an appointment with a good orthopedic surgeon for Jordan's knee. We really like this doctor because he told Jordan something no other doctor had so far, which is what we wanted considering nothing has worked so far. He said Jordan's hip on the same side as his bad knee is out of whack. The funny thing is that Jordan's hip was giving him problems before this whole knee mess even began. With the hip out of alignment, every step Jordan takes is putting a crazy amount of stress on his ligaments. He basically does not have the leverage he needs for the knee to work properly. Jordan has been seeing a specialty physical therapist that can also get him back in alignment. He adjusted Jordan the first day, which was November 24th and he has stayed in alignment since! Before he adjusted Jordan, the Physical therapist showed Jordan how out of alignment he was by having him do some certain tests-Jordan told me that it was amazing how bad it was! Anyways, it seems to be helping. The frequency of pain is less, but as Jordan puts it, "It still cracks and pops like a champ!" haha! It still hurts him a lot though so we will move onto the next step. After the first of the year, we will probably go back to the ortho and then we will do some more tests, probably an MRI, and go from there. He just had to get the hip fixed before any actual physical damage to the knee could even be addressed.

So far, things with the knee are looking better than they have in 2 years!

Ewwwwww

Okay so I filled up my car with gas yesterday, and this is what I found when I stepped out of my car...

yes, it is a lock of hair. Isn't that disgusting! Who put it there and why and why?!!!!!!!!!!

October 5th

Okay so this blog is WAY overdue, but I just took the pictures off of my camera! October 5th was Jordan's last day in the Army so I decided to throw him a small surprise. We had just moved into our apartment the day before so please excuse the mess you see in the apartment (and you really can't see all the decorations throughout the mess, haha! I knew that he was a little bummed about the finality of being discharged from the Army so I thought it would be fun to make a fun evening out of it. I decorated the apartment with Army balloons and patriotic colors, my mom brought over sprinkles cupcakes, we made mojitos, and then my parents took us to dinner at a pub around the corner from us.

I also got him the West Point license plates for his truck, although they were not ready by October 5th-they came in a few weeks ago. He loves them! And don't ask why the picture of Jordan with the license plate looks strange because I have no idea!

*Does anyone know how to move the pictures around once you have uploaded them? For instance, I wanted the pictures of the license plates to be below the paragraph about it.

Harry Potter!

Last night we went to see the new Harry Potter movie-it was great! I have always loved the books and the movies from when they first got popular (I was in middle school). Since Jordan and I have been married, I've gotten him hooked too. We would listen to the books on CD when we would drive between Texas and Alabama/Georgia. One weekend we were really bored so we rented all the movies that were on DVD and had a marathon. Haha I know we're nerds! They are really entertaining if you have not watched/read the Harry Potter series, I highly suggest it! The movies are entertaining, but it's much much much better if you read the books because they leave so much out of the movies. Happy Harry Potter and

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
