6 Months??




Yesterday was the 6 month mark of our marriage! I know, silly, but it's fun to celebrate! :) Paul bought me these beautiful daises (I love daisies) and I made honey mustard chicken that was pretty yummy. I can't believe it's already been 6 months.. It's flown by!

Stressy Stressy


The weeks are blurring by with life so crazy right now. It seems like we are always on the go. School, then work, then school again and sleep. I see Paul maybe an hour a day, so weekends are very precious to me. Saturday night is our date night. We've only had that once, but holy cow I can tell how much it's needed!

It's nice being so busy sometimes though. It really keeps your mind off things. Paul is working two jobs right now, going to school full time and studying for not only school, but for his insurance test that's coming up on Saturday. I'm going to school full time and working, but I know my schedule is nothing compared to his.

Paul, I've noticed, gets stressed but is still really, really good about keeping a positive attitude all the time! Sometimes it drives me nuts how controlled he is!

Anyway, this is just a short little post to tell you all that we're not trying to avoid you.. we're not mad at you.. and we're not mean people! We're just really busy and like to enjoy the time we have together when we actually have time together..


I hope you're all doing great! Feel free to give us a call sometime because we like to hear from everyone! Have a great week!

Park City

Paul and I were able to go to Park City on Thursday (very early) in the morning. Paul had a convention to go to for World Financial so we thought it'd be fun and smart to go! We had a blast. The plane ride up there was early, but fun. We started driving back yesterday and got home at about 3 today.



This is our room at the Marriott Hotel It had two french doors that led out to the indoor pool and courtyard. We didn't use either of the places, but it sure was nice to look at!



This was on the way to the Alpine Slide and Coaster. It's just a ton of shoes in a big tree. I don't know why they were there, but it looked cool!

This is the Alpine slide. You take the Ski lift all the way up and slide down on this bob sled type thing. It was a blast. You can control your speed and race one other person. A guy we were with totally tipped and skinned up his arm and leg pretty badly.




Another picture of the Alpine slide. I didn't get a picture of the coaster. You sit in this cart and it takes you all the way up the mountain then you go down and get to control your speed and everything. It was way, way fun.





I totally fell in love with the mountains.. and weather. Don't be surprised if we move! :)


The convention was really really good too. It was really great to sit there and listen to these successful guys who, the majority of them, were LDS. It was wonderful to hear how this job goes a long with the church standards so well and also about their success and how it happened. I believe there's another one in January, so I bet we'll go to that one too!
We had a wonderful weekend and made a ton of new friends. Everyone was great, nice and motivational to kick off the business. I'm so glad we got to go!
