Not so recent events...

So what has Mashley been up to?

December:

Our lives were spent together at Painted Clay Studio working on Christmas ornaments for elementary schools! We have handled enough ornaments for a lifetime!

Christmas Day! It was beautiful weather in Tennessee and after we opened gifts we went letterboxing! It was about 50 degrees and the parks were swamped with people.

January:

New Years Eve - um in bed by 11:00pm. Can you say party animals....haha!

The first weekend in Jan. we traveled to Columbia, MO to visit the Volkmann/Abell residence. The trip was enjoyable and relaxing but went by quickly!

The second week or so in Jan we did have the opportunity to travel back home to celebrate Christmas with family and friends. We were gone 4 days and got a lot of visiting done in the short amount of time. It was accomplished by having every minute of everyday planned plus having great Iowa winter weather!

We attended our first letterboxing meet-up and took a cold, well needed hike! The meet-up was an experience. Lots of boxing in a short amount of time. Note to self, going to a meet-up will take the entire time allocated to it! We thought it was interesting that it was held in a shopping mall.

February:


Classes have started back up for Matt so he is trying to figure out the perfect schedule. Working full time and taking full time classes isn't an easy battle to accomplish. It's hard for him to give up his hobbies but he is doing a good job!

Tornado Damage!Tornadoes didn't actually hit Murfreesboro. We were pretty fortunate. Oh and our trash can blew over!

Valentine's Day. We have determined that Valentine's Day is pretty silly and a commercial holiday! So we didn't celebrate it. However, Matt did come to the studio to help me out with the couples special PCS had going on. It was the first event I did myself. It was fun and the event went over well!
