4 Months!

Today is our 4 month anniversary. Woo hoo! How did we do it?! I don't know. But it has been great. Right now we are in the thick of school and work and a million other things - at least that makes it hard to get bored! Today I dropped a jar of peaches and it made a hole in my floor. At least those peaches are safe! They were freshly canned by Melanie and me. Delicious!

I got transferred to a new branch at work, and it's farther from my house. :( Boo. But the people seem really nice there, and have accepted me as one of their own.

Other than that, there's really nothing new going on here. We're looking forward to our upcoming Vegas trip in a few weeks (yay!!), especially because it's starting to get cold. :/

It's raining buckets!

No, it's not really raining. But we had our first weekend guest stay with us! My beloved Bucket!! Mom and Dad came to visit for the weekend, and they brought Bucket with them, to stay with me and Craig. It was glorious. We went to the bank, the park, the Hanks's, the Carters', the Mills's... It was quite a weekend. Poor guy was about ready to collapse when we handed him back over to Dad for the trip home. Then yesterday we de-Bucketized the house, washing all the sheets and vaccuuming the floor and couch. He sure does shed alot. But it was fun to have him.

We had our video party on Saturday! All of the siblings and their families made videos of stories from the Book of Mormon or Bible, and then we all got together and watched them. We have some creative minds in our family. It was so fun, and it turns out the kids are great actors! We sat outside at JD's house and he projected it onto the side of the house, whilst we sat in our campchairs and on our blankets, eating treats. It was great.

All in all, we had a great weekend. Now it's back to school and back to work!

First post!

Well all of my eager followers, I have finally decided to join the bandwagon and create a blog! Since Craiggles and I hardly ever talk to anyone anymore, perhaps this will keep us all on the same page.

We have been married for 3 months now! I know. If anyone needs marital advice, come to me. :) Yeah right. But it has been wonderful! Our lives are quite busy and we hardly get to see each other anymore, but absence makes the heart grow fonder. :) Right now Craiggles goes to work (finance department of CR England) half the week, and school the other half. He is taking 5 classes (yuck) and is majoring in accounting, for those who remain unawares. I am working every day(Wells Fargo) and taking night classes (also yuck). Hence the never seeing each other. So life is busy, but great!

Mom and Dad are coming to visit for the weekend! Yay! I wish Matt and Jen were coming too.... Grrrr... But I guess I can't expect them to come visit us every time I want them to!

Bucket is doing well at home, I hear. I miss his furry little face but we will be together again someday.

Well, that's about all I can think of to say for now! I'm making chicken fingers tonight. I hope they're delicious!
