Matt's Birthday

These are pictures from Matt's birthday get together. We just had my parents and brother and his parents and sisters family over for lunch. I cooked his favorite meal and we all just enjoyed eating and talking! Matt's cake was absolutely awesome:) A friend from work made it and it could possibly be the best cake I have ever eaten!!!

Christmas Time!

Soooo...... This is actually Matt and my first time to decorate for Christmas at our house. Since we lived out-of-town, we never decorated b/c we were never there for Christmas. We had a blast picking the tree out and decorating it together. Matt and I were off this week for vacation. We went to B'ham and shopped til we dropped for presents. We are all done, now I have to wrap them all! We have enjoyed spending time with each other this week and hate it is almost over:(

My first deer!

So here is the story......

Matt was going hunting and I thought it would be a good challenge for me to go and be quiet. (I know, me being quiet= very funny!) So anyway, I went with him Friday afternoon and I sure wasn't quiet, whatever could be funny, was extra funny because I knew I wasn't supposed to be loud! So I was watching this one deer for about 30 min. and asked Matt if I could try to kill it. keep in mind: I have never shot a gun in my life, but Matt thought I could do it. So the deer was about 215 yards away and Matt talked me through the process of shooting a gun, and I nailed her. I couldn't believe I did it:) Matt said, "I've never shot a deer and it just fall down." Matt's deer always run and they have to look for them! Anyway it was so fun. I can't wait to go back. I am looking for a buck next time so I can mount it in the office!!!

I hope everyone had a great thanksgiving and didn't eat too much:) Matt and I went 3 different places and enjoyed visiting with all the family we haven't seen in a while! Hope everyone has a wonderful week!

Up date on Matt

Matt had his surgery yesterday morning. He did great! They got all the cancer the first time and didn't have to keep cutting. Matt is having very little pain and went back to work tonight. Please keep him in your prayers for the healing process. He goes back next week to get stitches removed.

I started my new job today and it was wonderful. I had a great first day and hope for many, many more wonderful days ahead of me:) I hope everyone has a wonderful week and weekend!!!

"Life"

Haven't posted in a while so thought I would let everyone know what has been going on in our life. Salsa is no longer with us:( He got to be too much with chip. They would fight more than play with each other. Salsa thought it would be fun to use the restroom all over the new house. Chip was very easy to house break and I guess we thought Salsa would be the same way (boy was I wrong). As most of you know Matt and I just moved into our new house we built and we decided that maybe just one inside dog was enough. We gave him to someone we know so we can see him anytime we want. It was very hard at the time, but we knew it was for the best. He is doing great and so are we:)

I will be starting a new job at Baptist October 31. I am so excited and can't wait to start. I will miss all my co-workers at Rehab at Work terribly, however, this is where I feel God is leading me to go. I have prayed about this situation and am very pleased and excited about where God is leading me to go.

Matt and I went to the Dr last week to get what we thought was a "wart" taken off Matt's face. But the Dr. said it looked like a cancer spot. They sent the biopsy and said it would be about a week before we would know anything. The Dr called Thursday and told Matt they would have to perform surgery because it was indeed cancer. This has been a very scary time, however, we know the situation is completely in Gods hands. Matt will be having surgery Oct. 30 to rid himself of cancer. The Dr said they would not sew him up until all the cancer is gone. So if everyone would keep us in your prayers at this time. I will keep everyone posted on how he is doing.

"Pumpkin Heads"

Matt and I went to the pumpkin patch in Caledonia last weekend to get different things to decorate the house. We carved a pumpkin and decided to be pumpkin heads!!! We had a blast just being crazy! Thought I would post the pictures so you can see what the Wozniak's are really about!

I PASSED!!!!

I graduated in May of this year with an Occupational therapy assistant degree. With this degree to be a certified therapist you have to take a national board. It has just had me stressed out for about a month. I took my test about two weeks ago and have been waiting to hear the results. Matt called me at work on Tuesday to tell me I PASSED!!! I am so happy and relieved I don't ever have to take that HUGE TEST EVER AGAIN!!!!
Oh and a little update on the pups!!! Chip is coming around it has taken him a little while to adjust to not getting all the attention, but I think he is getting used to it. Salsa on the other hand is an absolute MESS!! He loves Chip and just can't understand why Chip doesn't want to hang out with him. Hopefully they will be the best of friends soon! I sure hope everyone has a blessed rest of the week and weekend.

The new edition to the family!!!

As many of you may know Matt and I have a wonderful puppy by the name of Chip. If you all know me, you know that Chip is just like my child!!! Matt and I got Chip about two weeks after we got married b/c Matt worked at night and I was lonely. Chip started sleeping with me about 2 days after we got him, so we are extremely close!! Well Matt and I talked it over and since both of us are working full time and are having to leave chip all day, everyday, we decided he might need a playmate!(also the poor face chip makes when we leave him is absolutely pitiful). So we looked around and found him a playmate. We wanted a girl dog but that is a long story So we got Chip a brother and his name is Salsa!!! Salsa loves Chip, but Chip is not so fond of Salsa yet. I think they will grow to love each other it might just take chip a while!! He has been so used to having all the attention for 2 years and now he is having to share the attention. I took some pictures of the dogs so everyone could see!

This is chip sleeping.

This is Salsa (taking over chips bed)

This is Chip and Salsa laying together! Chip is about 4 lbs and Salsa is about 1/2 lb.

This is Salsa trying so hard to play with Chip, but chip is scared to death of Salsa!!! They keep me laughing that is for sure!

Sorry bout the pictures!!!

Ok so I really don't know how to make the pictures do right on this page!!! I really need a good lesson with this blog (picture) thing!!! I guess everyone gets the drift with the pictures!!!

So...... It has been a really long time since I have blogged. My blog page was messed up for a while and would not let me open up my blog. It is now fixed!!!! (thank you Matt)

Matt and I have officially moved into our house and we LOVE it!!! We are still trying to get everything "fixed up" in the house. We have done a lot I think, still lacking curtains and hanging a few pictures. My wonderful mother is helping me get the curtains sewed this week. I got the cutest fabric at Gumdrop here in Columbus. I can't wait to get them put up so I don't feel so violated by those driving by at night!! We are staying busy with our jobs, especially Matt he is working very long hours right now. Hopefully when the plant starts full production the hours will be better. Well I guess that is all I have now and I promise I am going to get better about posting!!!! I hope everyone has a wonderful week!

We are "hopefully" moving Saturday!!!

Hello to all, I have been pretty bad about keeping up with the blog page (sorry). If all goes as planned we will be moving into our new house Saturday!!! We have been very blessed to have such a wonderful contractor (Chris Clardy) who has worked so hard to finish our house so quickly. Matt and I heard some terrible stories about building a house, and I have to say it has been a piece of cake! Chris has made this experience really easy and FUN! So if any of you out there are thinking of building a house I would highly recommend Chris as a contractor!
I will not be able to get online for a while until we get the net out at the house, but I will post pictures of the house once we are in it and settled!! I hope everyone has a great rest of the week :o)

It has been forever....

It has been forever since I have been able to get on and write! I knew I could not keep up once a week. Anyway, Matt and I have been extremely busy with picking out things for our house, going to look at our house, and our jobs. Matt usually does not get off until 7 o'clock so we have lots to do when he gets off.
I am really enjoying my new job and Matt seems to really like his (except for the long hours). I have lots of pictures to post but that will have to be later when I have more time. Matt and I should be moving into our house the end of July:) yay we are so excited! Just wanted to write a small blurb about what has been going on and I hope to post pictures this weekend! I sure hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the week and weekend.

Matt's big fish!

This is Matt and the HUGE fish he caught. This was sometime during the winter months (hints the sweatshirt). Just thought I would add a picture of Matt on here!!! I will post new pictures after this weekend!!! My brother is coming into town so I will be sure to take plenty of pictures. Hope everyone has a wonderful holiday weekend!!!

I am a blogger now!!!

So I have decided to start a blog. I will admit I am a huge blog stalker and this will probably only make me worse. I will try and post once a week, or at least that is my goal!!! I hope everyone has a blessed week.
