New Job for ME!

Well a fun new update for us! I got a new job that I started on Monday! I am working for Discover Card and my official title is an Account Manager, but basically its just collections in the 30 day past due department. I am going to training right now and so far so good!

My training schedule is 6am-1:30pm Monday Thur Friday and after 4 weeks of training it will be 6am-12pm. It works out so awesome because while I work Richard watches Ethan and then when I get home we hang out for a bit and then Richard starts working. We are very fortunate that Richard works from home so that we are able to make this work. Plus it makes it so we actually get to see each other!!!!

I am looking forward to saving some money so by next summer we will have a new sodded yard, remodeled kitchen and bathrooms and a basketball court!
Since this post was about me I thought why not put a picture of me! This was on our honeymoon in Mexico!

Two Year Anniversary

Two years ago today we were married for time and all eternity. I love you Richard and am so grateful for these past years. I have learned that life has many ups and downs. Sometimes the downs are hard to get back up from but I am grateful I have you by my side to work through them. Happy Anniversary!
I couldn't find my cd with the un-copyrighted ones!!!


I love this picture of us!

Summer!

I love summer. It has been so fun lately to take Ethan outside and play. He has finally started walking but is so stubborn. ( I have NO CLUE where he gets that from) He knows its faster to crawl so if he wants to get somewhere fast he just falls down and crawls.

We have been able to do some really fun things this past month, starting with going to St. George with Richard's parents. Over the 24th of July weekend Richard took some time off and we headed up to stay at Richard's parents timeshare with them. It was such a nice place. With two bedrooms, two baths a full kitchen, dining and living room, we were all very comfortable. We started our time off down at the outlets and getting some lunch. However with it being 107 while we were there, the rest of the time we spent in the pool! Thanks Rob and Gloria for inviting us. We had a lot of fun and Ethan enjoyed getting to know you both better!

Last weekend Grandma Audrey, Grandpa Les, Mom, Dad, Hailey, Rob, Gloria ( Richards Parents) and Grandma Juns ( Richards Grandma) came up and went to the Tooele County Fair with us! We got some dinner and went over to the Rodeo. I haven't been to one in years and Ethan LOVED all the animals! We had so much fun and look forward to going to more rodeos!!


Ethan was hilarious on the drive there. We left at 9 pm and drove through the night and Ethan stayed awake for 4 of the 5 hours watching Backyardigans!




This is the view from the porch! We loved being so close to the pool.

All the food LEFT OVER when we were getting ready to leave! Rob and Gloria bought a ton of food for us to eat!

Ethan was obsessed with this window!

I stood outside and took pictures of him through it!


He finally got mad that I wouldn't let him out!


And of course it wouldn't be a trip without some hives!! I bought some sunscreen and tested it out on his arm. Apparently I didn't wait long enough because ten minutes later his whole body had hives!

Richard and Ethan in the pool. Richard thought it was funny that I made Ethan where a shirt in the pool, but I didn't want him to burn!

Ethan and I got back from the pool and I got him all clean and ran to get a diaper. See if you can guess what the dark line in front of him is! That stinker Peed!
