Good things come in threes

Life is so exciting right now! Isaac and I will be moving into our house on Vance AFB this Tuesday, July 10th. We lucked out having covered parking for two cars. Most are duplex with only one car garage. Even though our house in the same size, it's not a duplex. I'll put up pics of the interior once I can the chance to get in there. It's three bedrooms and one bath.




Our new home!



Lately, I've been connected to Enid Animal Shelter (really, it's the pound), looking to adopt a dog, as some of you might know. I also know the HUGE responsibility that comes with owning dog (much more work than say our little cat, Logan). Thank you to those who gave me great words of advice when it came to this matter, trust me, those words were not ignored, but rather taken to heart. In the end however, our hearts won out, and in just three days (maybe two) we will be taking this little bundle of joy home with us:


He apparently is a lab mix of some sort. I thought someone said he was four months old, but I highly doubt he's that old yet. What's his name you ask? Wookie. We thought about this one more then what we are going to name our first kids! 

Our third bit of exciting news is that I just got hired on as a part time retail sales consultant for AT&T. I worked at Verizon back in Logan, UT for a year and eight months, so this was a logical transition. Yes, the job can be very stressful and demanding at times, but it also pays better than most jobs around here. Plus, it's only part time (for more puppy play time!). I start August 5th, so I get to have a few good weeks doing the basic trainings with the puppy. The bummer part is that three weeks of my training will be in San Antonio, Texas. :(  Reminds me of when Isaac and I started dating (he was gone for five weeks for ROTC, then I was gone a month later for three weeks for my Verizon training). Oh well, in the long run non of that matters since we have eternity together ;) 

Oh!! This week is going to be so amazing!!!

Valentine's Day 2020

As a family of four, Valentine's Day celebrations are not the same as they were 10 years ago when I celebrated my first Valentine's Day with the love of my life.  This year was spent with my daughter.  We saw the new Sonic movie, painted pottery and got some cookies at our favorite cookie shop.  Later that night was spent making dinner, and turning in early because well, the hubs and little boy were both miserable while battling off colds and sickness.   I got to thinking, as someone who only grew up decorating for Christmas, are there really all that many people who go big when it comes to other holidays?  I have a cute little banner I put up for each major holiday, but struggle with knowing when to put it up and when to take it down. And how much is too much?  This year I saw cute family dinners with all kinds of decked out decor, and that was the first time it ever occurred to me to have a family valentines dinner.  I wonder what other ways I hav...

Four our honeymoon, Isaac and I took a four day Carnival cruise out of Long Beach, California to Catalina Island and Ensenada, Mexico. The first day we got up super early to drive from Logan, UT aaaaal the way down to Salt Lake City. One of Isaac's old mission companions was having a baby blessing. It was super awesome because after they invited us over to bbq and they also had some Hatian food (Isaac missed it very much) which was actually pretty yummy. The first day we got up super early to drive from Logan, UT aaaaal the way down to Salt Lake City.

In Vegas we decided to spend waaaay too much money at the Hard Rock Cafe (I really wanted to go because I had never eaten t...

Two weeks away and I turn 27 (I don't actually feel that old since my husband just turned 25. And I don't feel like he is actually that old since he is just finishing is last year of undergrad school. And unlike Utah, where a lot of guys serve missions so they graduate school later, being from Arizona I'm used to college graduates being younger. Result? My, what would you call it,  age that I actually feel is around 23 or 24 years. THREE weeks and a couple of days and I will be in ARIZONA!! I'm so ExCiTeD to see my family and friends! Not looking forward to the HOT weather, but it might actually be a nice break from here since it's suppose to be in the 50's by the time we leave. There are some things in Utah that are growing on me. The weather. Weird, right? I can't really figure it out myself. Normally I LOVE the heat, but I've been retaining a lot of body heat lately, so I am loving the cooler weather. Maybe it's because of the RA or the medici...
