Update

Well, a lot has changed in two months. As you already saw we moved, (we're actually moving again) got a puppy and I started a new job. Clearly we've been busy. I'm back as a receptionist at a new place and I love my job. My office is full of great people that make working a joy. I love being inside again. I forgot how cold it could be outside, I also LOVE that I have Saturdays off, its amazing. My job is great and I am really enjoying it.

We also got a new puppy, he's a cocker spaniel and his name is Tucker. He's our baby. As I write this he's laying on the couch cuddling with me. He fills a void in my soul that I didn't know was missing, I know how cheesy that sounds but really, he's the best. Chandler got him for me for Christmas and he is the best present ever, and Chandler is the best husband ever for getting him for me.

Our last thing of big news is that we are moving back to Draper, while we have loved out house in Pleasant Grove, we are moving into Chandler's great grandmothers house to take care of it while she is in a rest home. Its a project house but its something I am really excited for. Its father away from my work but its much closer for Chandler, but its not far enough that its a deal breaker. I love the cute little house we're moving into, it's just got so much character. I'll post pictures of the house and the before's and afters of what I change. Its just going to be a lot of fun for Chandler and I to make our own memories and making a home. We're both just really excited its going to be great.

All in all things are great with us, we've got a month left in Pleasant Grove and in that time we have to move all Chandler's grandparents things to the basement of our new house, pack up all the stuff at the now house, paint the new house and move everything and then unpack. That is what I dread the absolute most. I HATE packing/ unpacking. Painting I can at least handle, I just have to find a color that I love, which is proving to be difficult. Wish me luck!

high five for friday!

1. we went to my cousins baby's blessing (kinda like a christening) and we got stuck in all these sheep on the way. i was just laughing and laughing.
2. it snowed today. love my life. i also love my amazing back yard.
3. we went to a wedding last night and apparently chandler can not put on a belt apparently. he missed the loop, in the front! in the back i can see, but the front, really.
4. we got internet today, but we're cheap and got our own modem so comcast couldn't charge us the rental fee, hubby was trying to set everything up. it was great.
5. we put this up day one in our new place. we wanted to establish early on what side we were on.




also, on a side note, my baby is here. She's a beauty. Have a look:

High 5 for Friday!

1. it was the Utah blackout game on saturday. i loved that it was cold enough that i got to wear my hunters. i also loved that Utah beat the hell out of Cal.
2. yes, i realize i have 2 pictures of hunter boots, i just can't decide which socks to buy next. i love them both.
3. yeah, i have a random guy on here, but there is a purpose, he looks EXACTLY like taco from the league. if you watch that show you know what i'm talking about, if you don't- go watch it on netfix. its amazing.
4. this is my father-in-law's halloween costume. bet you didn't know chandler had scottish roots.
5. last- but certainly not least- this is our new house! i love it so much. its amazing.

High Five For Friday!

alright, these are my 5 favorite things this week :)

1. going out friday night with some friends

2. the Giants are killin' it in the World Series! 

3. it snowed! how happy am i?!

4. Chandler's grandpa gave me some boots that belonged to his dad, never been worn! 

5. i finally broke down and bought myself an amazing camera, Nikon D5100 :)

I really suck at blogging.

Alright, so I swear I think about writing on this thing more but I just forget. Not a lot new with us though, just working. We work opposite weekends so I feel like I hardly ever see Chandler. The only time we have the same days off are every other Sunday, other than that we're working every day. It sucks but welcome to my life. We decided to go up to Park City on Wednesday just to get a little bit of time to ourselves and I am so happy we did! We went to the Outlet Stores and they were having great sales! It was so awesome, I got 3 pair of dress pants and 2 new shirts, mostly I just loved that we got to spend some time together that wasn't staring at the TV trying to stay awake after work. The store finally opened and Chandler LOVES it. He comes home happy but exhausted every day. The people he works with are great too, we have so much fun with them. I feel like we haven't got to hang out with any of our friends since we got married. We got so old and boring as soon as we tied the knot that I'm embarrassed. So if any of my friends really do read this, call us so we can do something.
Lucky for me I'm off this weekend, so I'm going to spend it watching football, baseball and sitting on my butt. My parents are up in Park City at their time share so I might go up and see them because Chandler works and I'll be all sorts of bored without him. See, we're old boring people. Hopefully in the near future we'll be able to have a social life again. There are some things coming up in the future that might help with that :)
Well, seeing as its taken me 5 hours to write this post because I keep getting interrupted I give up.

Lately.

Well, lately Chandler and I have been swamped. I'm working 60 hour weeks and he's about to start his 60 hour weeks but the nice part about that is that our savings account keeps growing. I'm just not excited for that to be empty when we buy a house. It stresses me out to think about spending that kind of money. Chandler even works Saturday and Sunday this week because he has people in from all over the place to help set up the store. He is really excited for that to open. Its going to be a really cool store. They have a ferris wheel and everything. I'll be spending tons of money there I'm sure. Nothing else is really new for us. Just work work and more work.

I'm going to be starting Insanity when I can find a copy of the DVD's for a decent price because I'm sick of being overweight and I hope it will kick start it for me. I have a wedding to go to in December and I really don't want to be the fattest one there. I didn't lose the weight for my wedding and thats one of the things that bug me the most about it. I just refuse to be fat for my whole life. So after I'm done with Insanity I might post before and afters but I'm not sure. It depends on how comforable I am at that point. I'll post weekly updates on my progress because maybe if I have to report to the world I'll actually do it. I've been looking for it used on KSL or Ebay because its like $169 if you buy it new. I'm hoping to get it this week but I'll keep you updated. Well thats all for us this time, we're such exciting people as I'm sure you can tell!

Family Reunion!

Hmmm... I was really trying to be good at blogging but clearly not the case. August has been busy for us. The day I went back to work I was offered a promotion so I'm now a service writer. I really like it a lot better than answering the phones. The days go really fast which is surprising because I now work from 7:00 AM to 5:00 PM instead of 8:30-5:30. I love getting off at 5 tho. That half hour makes a big difference. Chandler still loves his job. He sets up his shop this week so its going to be really busy for him! He started playing on his work softball team or something and I think he's having a lot of fun with that. It keeps him entertained. We went to my family reunion this weekend and it really was so much fun! We got to spend the whole weekend on the four wheelers and camping and fishing. It was really a great time, only I couldn't fish because I don't have a fishing license and I didn't want to pay the fine. It really was a fun weekend though. Chandler and I decided that we need to get a truck and a 4 wheeler now though. It was such a fun weekend that we want to do it all the time now. We won't be doing it anytime soon though because right now our main focus is buying a house. That is numero uno on my list. So it will be awhile but its something that we think would be fun. My cousins have this awesome cabin up Moroe Mtn which is like a 2 hour drive, but its a really nice cabin. They are huge bronco fans & my cousin Chad and his wife Jen decorated their room Bronco's. Now I don't really like the Bronco's but this is a pretty cool room I have to admit.

 This is painted on the wall with the giant Bronco's Emblem

Can't go wrong with a flat screen TV

Awesome bar mirror

There is a mini fridge in the corner but you can't see it. Basically if you were a Bronco's fan I would say you'd never leave this room.



My Uncle Guy has a zipline over at his cabin and the kids had a blast. Even my mom rode it!







It was a torrential down pour for about an hour on Saturday right as we were about to start a horse shoes tournament so we all sat under the tent and did our family auction instead of sit and stare at each other. I finally got one of the pieces that my Uncle Guy makes (this one was a cookie jar) and it is so amazing! I'm so excited to have my own kitchen so I can put it out. I just love it. My cousin Ryan's wife Amber brought her beautiful great dane puppy up and she was like the best dog ever! She was even taller than Bailey!

 After it stopped raining we went to Manning Res to catch some fish and enjoy a ride. Bailey didn't catch anything but a couple rocks even though the fish were jumping like crazy. Brennon caught one that was about 20 inches. It was pretty awesome!

I was just hoping he would fall in. No luck though.

All in all it was a great weekend. Looking forward to the next one :)
