SO Long...

Do you all like how many of my titles have ... at the end?
OK well I am sorry I have been super tired this week, a week of vacation really does get you out of work mode. Also the long drive is kind of kicking my butt. Well GOOD news I will only be making the drive for another 2 weeks. That is right we sold the house! We actually got the offer during the week off and I wasn't going to say anything until after we closed but I wanted to so I did. We are really excited to move, we found a great apartment that is right in the middle of Cory's work and my work, it is great. It ironically is also within walking distance of the Murray Convergys. The new job is GREAT though. It is weird to be a new hire in training and going over information I already know but I am trying not to be a know it all. I can't wait to be in Denver next weekend. Don't forget Val, we do get in kind of late on Friday. Well I guess that is all for now.

The rest of the week.... so far

Ok so some of you might not know this but we are currently trying to sell our house to eliminate some commuting time, well we had a lot of showings this week so we were out of the house a lot here are some of the things we did.

This is Cory at the bowling ally, we also played mini golf at he coolest course ever but it is all black light stuff s you can't take a picture of it.


This is the score... uhhh i am the lower one, but i did beat him in golf.


We were driving home and i look over and this house has 2 lamas chained up in the front yard... uhh aren't those expensive?



This was about midnight or so... lego starwars much?

Unemployment/Vacation- Day 1




So I haven't really had a time in the past 5 years or so that allowed me to take some time off so before i started my new job next Monday I decided (with the encouragement of Cory) to take a week off. Well t my Surprise Cory decided to take that week off too so we could have that time to spend together. It is wonderful I have been working until 10 PM for the past 7 months and Cory works in SLC 8-4:30 so our day went like this.... 6:20 alarm goes off and Cory gets up to get ready for work, i drag myself out of bed and make Cory's lunch, i then return to bed and am asleep again by the time Cory is out of the shower. He kisses me goodbye and is off to work. Then I get out of bed around 8 something and head to the gym. I leave for work around 1 and get home about 10:30- 11 depending on when i got out of there so needless to say, we didn't see each other much, I even had to work on Saturdays so we really only had Sundays together. I missed him so this is how Day 1 (day 3 if you counted the weekend). We went to the Salt Lake Bees game, this is the farm team for the LA Angels. It was a beautiful 78 degrees and breezy so perfect. Well the sun was out and we got a little toasty but not to bad it should be gone by tomorrow. Here are some pictures from the game.

SOOO EARLY

So here I am sitting at 6:40 Am on a day that I am not working until 12:30! This is how much I love my Cory. So I know I look so good in all the pics that are posted but I will explain them. The one in the header is pretty obvious I look so young and swear I will never be that beautiful again, but isn't that how you should feel about your wedding day? The other two our from Thanksgiving this last year, I look chubby because I was trying to pack on pounds hoping i could just hibernate... HAHA, well that and I have my paisley coat one, which i know now I am a hypocrite for because I just told Val she should change the paisleys on her blog. I still think my coat is AMAZING though. So I guess I can update those who don't know. I have been working for Convergys as a manager for almost 5 years now and my last day is TOMORROW! I have recently been given the opportunity to work for American Express, I am incredibly excited to get my career started with them. I am also proud of myself and going out there and finding a job on my own and not thinking I wasn't good enough to make more money than I was. I hope no one take offense to the initial post about us being us, it is just living in Utah sometime you need to just say that, in the mean time I will try and get some good pictures of my favorite kids to put up. I am hungry and need to eat, i get grouchy if I don't eat breakfast.

Up and Coming Plans

I think its lame to post your first blog about it being your new blog, or who told you to make one, or why you are even doing it. So Let's just assume I've been hip this whole time and had one all along, and this is just another post on our blog.

Title is..Up and Coming plans...

See this little dude in the middle? That is my nephew Lucas, he isn't my only nephew but the only one I have a picture of. We are going to Colorado (my home state) to see him and his fat sister Bridget. Calm down people even her mom thinks she is fat! We are going for the weekend so my husband can feed this little boy lots of candy and sweets. Afterall, Lucas only knows him as Uncle Candy, not Uncle Cory! This is what he expects. (see below)

The only issue I have with this trip is that it is still 3 weeks away, and it is only for the weekend. :( I guess they will just have to come and visit us next time, but Val knows, Lucas better be potty trained by the time they come to Utah! Bridget, well she better have looked at the diet plan I have written out for her! Hahaha
