let's just say this break has been bringing some serious thinking to my brain, and after a lil insight I have a thought which portrays something that I'm nicknaming an early resolution for myself....
"Sometimes in life we prepare ourselves for something and when we get something else we immediately condition ourselves to be disappointed. It's not until you accept what you're handed that you'll learn to enjoy it and even grow to love it."

it's a....NEPHEW!
Baby Sib has arrived, and therefore will never be referred to as Sib again : )
Jaxon Jacob Brandt made his arrival on December 9, 2010 weighing in at whopping 8 lbs and 19 1/2 inches. He's the cutest little boy in the world(he had to be a boy cause Kez isn't quite ready to give up the cutest girl in the world title just yet)! anywho, I took a final early and was driving to Provo like a crazy person in order to be there for the delivery, I missed it by about a half hour and was pretty upset about it : ) but despite the fact that I missed it I'm so happy he's here and that both him and Ash are doing great!
love ya already lil JJ, welcome to the fam : )

.study.day.
Today is study day....
what have I done today?? well, slept in, free food at the institute, classmate's baby shower with the nursing ladies, and went and saw burlesque with my good friend Melissa. So now at almost 7pm I will officially start my studying for study day.
finals week. who ever invented such a cruel thing anyway? well I can handle it, just bring on the: no sleep, more diet coke than normal, sweats, and stress. It's gonna be a great week.
on better news....I'll be back in P-town for Christmas break on Thursday, thanks to a Professor I've cussed out all semester letting me take one of his finals a day early. thank you sir. As to the special occasion for taking it early....my family's going to be all together again by the end of this week, joining us Jake and the new babe : ) can't wait for all 10 of us to be under the same roof!!!!
PS. Today I'm grateful for life...I'm not entirely happy with it these past couple of months but man after this weekend, I'm grateful to have it. Enjoy life everyone, even if you don't love it right now.

one year older...
My younger and not so little brother turned 19 on Saturday. Craziness! Happy Birthday T!!
It's can be such a humbling experience to have a younger brother like Taylor, for years he's been one to look up to and follow in many ways but with his most recent decision to go on a mission he's setting an even greater example! I attended my ward Christmas party earlier in the week and when the missionaries walked in I'll admit I teared up a bit to think that's going to be my lil bro in only a few short weeks. But he's going to be such a great missionary, and I couldn't be more proud of him!
Have I mentioned that Taylor is one of the funnest people I know? he cracks the funniest jokes without missing a beat, and he can do pretty much any accent at a moment's notice(his favorite-forest gump). He's always thinking of others, and will help anyone out majority of the time without even asking. He's so cute with Kezzy, who brings out his not to tough guy side : ) and did I mention...he's pretty famous for once being a lead singer in a band, true story!
Tay thanks for always being one I can count on to bring a smile to my face and for helping me out in so many ways. I hope you had a great birthday, Love you BUD!!
