Hello Everyone! James & I decided we too should keep a blog, it’s easy enough, right? So I thought, my brother Tony helped me get this started over a month ago …and now we’re putting up our first post! We’ve been married for almost 6 months now and have encountered many new adventures thus far! Anywhere from losing my job, to the great debate of where to apply for school for James. Our lives certainly are not out of the ordinary or crazy…but it is amazing how time flies. Our weeks consist of “Goodbyes” and “I love yous” as we’re leaving for work and church callings…when James is at work, I feel lost like I don’t want to do anything without him! Which means I love him, right? The funny thing is that I’m such a busy body and I always like to be doing things and be “in the know” about everyone and everything…when James and I are together, watching a movie on the couch is just as fun as going to a crowded place and “being out.” But let’s be honest, I’ll always be a busy body.

I’ve been working at a marketing agency for almost 3 months now: www.thundertech.com , it’s quite a fast pace place and as an account manager I’ve had to jump right and make the biggest decisions I’ve ever had to before in a job. If any of you have kept in touch with me, you know it’s been quite a struggle in the beginning. I am getting more comfortable each day…still not sure what the future holds, but I am staying as positive as I can! My boss has been very understanding with my concerns and is willing to work with me so we’ll see.

James continues to show everyone up at Sam’s club with his amazing work ethic and skillz. Saturday I met him on his lunch break and he introduced me to a few of his co-workers and one of them said something to me that I’ll never forget! It was something like this….”He is the easiest going guy I’ve ever met, you ask him to do something and he does it without question! You don’t find many guys like him out there.” I replied “I know!!! I love him!!!” This past week he successfully finished the ACT test in a short four hours, ha ha. We won’t know his score for a while, but I know he did wonderful! This is step one as we continue to make decisions as together of where he’ll go to school etc…we’ll be sure to keep you posted!

In other news, we’re going on a mini-trip to Pittsburgh, PA in two weeks for a wedding that James is going to be the best man, the wedding is here: http://www.lindenhallpa.com/ . Since we probably won’t be able to travel too much this year, we are excited for this little get-a-way!

Our lives together are very blessed, we love the gospel, we love our families and we love each other. I’m not sure if I could get any cheesier, but there it is! We’ll try and update this as much as we can, so be sure to check back every couple of weeks!
