Not many pictures from Thanksgiving cuz was having too much fun to remember the camera. Here are the few I got.


This is the nasty meat that Nancy brought with her. The one on the right was $55 a pound and tasted like garbage

Fun loving sisters Janae and Jaime

Melissa and her daddy...so cute!

The First Snow!

Here are a few pictures of our first snow fall! So much funn! It is snowing on and off still today but thought some might enjoy these pictures!

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was wonderful! It was so good to see all of my family! I hadn't been to my grandparents for over a year and it felt good to go back. Melissa drove over with me on Thanksgiving morning. The weather was absolutely horrible! From home all the way to Silverdale it was POURING down rain! So hard to see 50 ft in front of me! Then between Silverdale and somewhere it started snowing. Then when we were like 15 mins from the house it was pure blue sky and sunny and then at Grandma's it was cloudy. So that was my crazy drive over. We had a ton of amazing food! The yams were my favorite this year! After dinner my Aunt Mardel had some planned games for everyone to do together. Then we broke up and all the women played different games, compatability and I'm totally blanking on the other one. All the men and a couple of the kids played Texas Hold 'Em. Jesse and Luke beat all the dads in one round! Then we watched Grey's Anatomy. I have never seen the show, it being the middle of the 3rd season I was a little lost, same with Grandma. It was actually a good show, even without knowing everything that was going on I enjoyed it. Jaime and I won out and got the hide-a-bed which really wasn't too comfy and at one point Jaime was sharing my pillow...she's a cuddler! All us women woke up at 6am and left at 7am to go shopping. We stopped at Starbucks and were at the mall by 8:15! The first stop was Mervyn's and I bought myself a new pair of New Balance tennies. They are light grey and light pink. They were originally $60 but with the store closing and the additional 15% off I got them for $30!! I definately spent a lot of money and it was nice to actually have money to spend this year! We had lunch at the Olive Garden this year. I had the baked ziti and it was delish! Great Uncle Bob and our cousin of some sorts was there and Uncle Bob ended up paying for everyone...so nice! After lunch was the Target stop and that was where I spent the most of my money! After Target I got changed and headed out to Ray's dad's place in Port Orchard which was only 20 mins away. So when I got there Max was being a bad boy. He so does not like Zach and I have no idea why. Every time Zach walked by he growls or tries to bite him. He gets in trouble with me if he acts like that so he got a time out in the truck. At dinner Maggie gave him a bone but he wouldn't touch it until he was with everyone else. That was a good time when Max and Zach had their bones away from each other. His dad made stuffed pork chops and they were amazing! He said it was his first time making them and WOW! We had mashed taters and asparagus with them. Yummy! The drive back was only about an hour but I was so tired it felt so long! I got my order of 140 pictures in the mail that I finally got downloaded and a bunch of the Christmas presents I ordered for people so I'm super excited! Ray and I went to Alderwood Mall last night and I got Jordan, Janae, Steve finished and half of Randy's and Al's. Ray also gave me a bunch more ideas for him so that helped. We had dinner at Claim Jumper and we decided that the Redmond one is better. We then headed out the the SUPER WALMART in Marysville since we were already in Lynnwood. Totally forgot what I needed from there but got some good stuff anyway. So I'm at work today and right now...IT IS SNOWING!!! YIPPEE! I love love love the snow but it will be a long drive home because it is slick out there. I'm also excited because I have my doctor appt tomorrow so we can finish up everything from my last visit and make sure everything is good and get my meds for the next 3 months. So I'm going home to enjoy the SNOW!

Are you ready for some pictures?!?!?!

So I FINALLY got some pictures downloaded. Here are a few for you to enjoy, some from June! :D

New Job

So I had my first day yesterday. It went pretty well. It is a lot different than Piedmont that is for sure. I also looked at a couple different apartments to see which I wanted. I chose the 3 bedroom flat. I know, three bedrooms we don't need but the living room in the two bedroom townhome was way too small for me to enjoy. We also will have a great view from the 3 bedroom! And it is still $200 less than what we were paying at Piedmont!

Jason was in town last weekend for his bday. That was a lot of fun to be able to see him again. We had dinner at Claim Jumper, and I got some good pics of Jason being a pig, and then went to Waldo's to watch some bands. It was crazy because I felt like I was back in High school, almost everyone there had gone to Cedarcrest!

I'm excited to go to my Grandma's next week. It feels like forever since I have been over there! And then shopping on Friday! Yippee! I will actually have enough money to get all my shopping done and maybe get something for myself also. I just got my last paycheck with Fairfield and it was a lot more than I was expecting so that was nice. I've already got some of my shopping done which is nice.

Today is mine and Ray's two year anniversary. I count it as today because that is our first date and first kiss. All thanks to Kristy inviting us to come celebrate her bday with her! We have plans to go out to dinner at the The Keg tonight. He is pretty excited.

Tomorrow is Apple Cup and I'm very upset about missing it! I'll be cheering the Cougars on from here at work but it won't be the same not being with Ray's fam! There is also a new UFC pay-per-view on tomorrow night that I will be missing. :(

Great news! Jess and Steve will be coming up for the holidays! Flying in the 22nd and leaving the 1st! I can't wait to see them! I am so freaking excited! You have no idea! I already ordered Jess' present and I love it! She'll be here for my bday too! Yippee! I'm planning on going to the Tulalip Casino in Marysville on Friday the 29th to celebrate. That should be great fun also.

Max is doing well. He got fleas after I put Advantage on him. Makes no sense to me. He's been kinda miserable with those. His poor little bum is all red and bitten. We have to check him every hour and we give him flea baths. He's the cutest sweetest little boy. I can't wait to share pictures with everyone!

I think that's all I have for now. Hope y'all are doing well!

Life changes so quick!

We had a Halloween party here at work. It was a crazy week with the buyers walking the property and trying to get ready for the party. We had a lot more attendees than expected! The community center was PACKED! Body to body! It was so hard to walk through there! It turned out well though. Everyone loved all of the prizes and the Indian food went fast! Everyone seemed to enjoy it!

So since the property has been for sale for so long some of us in the office had started looking for something. With the new company that is interested in buying, they weren't interested in keeping staff. And we decided if this sale fell through again we didn't want to deal with the due dilligence all over again. So Tiffany got a job with Braddock & Logan (a company that was a potential buyer at one point) in Renton. So since she went there she decided to bring me with her as the leasing agent. Hopefully to move up to assistant soon. So I will now be moving again, this time back to Renton. We drove around the property the other night and I like the look of the outside. They are planning on starting a remodel so I'm hoping that our apartment (townhome) can get done because I don't really like the kitchen cabinets. So my last day here is Nov 15th and I'll be moving the first weekend of December. Busy month.

I am still so happy with little Max. My dad bought him some sweaters and they are so cute! I have some really cute pictures and you don't have to wait that much longer to see them!!

That is the big news for now.

Our baby

So we are loving Max. He was sick with pneumonia when we got him and the vet I took him to was the rudest lady ever. But he is all better now and he has lots of energy. He is so happy to see us when we get home for work. He listens to me very well, still working on listening to Ray though. He likes the neighbor dog. He is always trying to go over to her apartment to see her. He also met a girl dachshund at Petco and they got along great. Only problem is that he doesn't seem to like Zach, Randy and Shawna's dog. He was growling at him at our place and we thought it was because Zach was on his territory. Well Ray took him over there last weekend and Max bit Zach. Not good. He does great with every other dog so this is not a good issue that he can't get along with family. I bought him a navy blue sweater that has a football on the back. He is absolutely adorable in it! (again no computer to upload pictures) I can't wait to show everyone how cute he is!

In other news, we have a new offer on the property. The new company is small but we're really hoping this one will go through. It's been so hard being for sale for so long and having nothing go through. It gets frustrating after awhile. I also have to keep my eyes open on other properties that are hiring because nobody knows yet if this new company wants to keep everyone. I guess we will see how things go.

I'm going out to Auburn tomorrow for my 2nd cousin's wedding. I'm so excited! :D I heard my cousin Janae had to get her wisdom teeth pulled while up at school and there was no one there with her. Poor thing! I need to get stuff together to send to her. I feel horrible because I haven't talked to Melissa or Janae since they left for school. I'm such a horrible cousin! We're still trying to figure out what is going on for Christmas so I can send out the 'Who has Who' list for presents. If it is at Nancy's I have to add Dean and Ray to the list. I think it may be since Christmas is on a Monday and everyone has to work the next day.

Ray and I are looking at tickets online, hoping to go see Jess and Steve in Florida in February. Last I checked tickets were only $200 so that would be great! We found THE perfect couch the other day in southcenter area. It was black and soft and the couch/loveseat set was only $850. Too bad we didn't have that much since we just bought a dog. :D I started painting our bedroom a light blue. It is a lot brighter on the wall then in the can. I hope I will learn to love it though. I got my favorite picture of Cannon Beach professionaly framed. It was expensive but it was worth it. It looks amazing. I also got a cool frame from IKEA that I put 5 of my flower pictures in, black and white, but before we got it hung Max accidentally ran into it and broke the glass so now I need that too.

Well this turned out a lot longer than I had planned. I hope everyone is well and good.

MAX

So this is an extremely happy post! So most people know that I LOVE dachshunds! I used to have my little Buddy but things didn't really work out with the whole roommate thing and her dog so I couldn't keep him. Anyway, I've been planning since February (when I got my tax refund) that this coming February I would use my tax refund to get a new puppy. Well, last Sunday Ray said we needed a dog. Then he had Monday and Tuesday off, so Monday he says, lets go look at dogs. Well, went went to the King County Animal Control shelter in Kent and guess what???? They had a dachshund!!! He was perfect! He is red and a mini and looks just like Buddy did! So of course, I have to get him! They picked him up on the 26th of Sept wandering around a shopping center in Issaquah. So I go up front and wait forever and then say I want him. But, he had shots that day to go into surgery so they tell me to come back tomorrow. Now believe me, it was very hard to leave without taking him with me. I thought about him all night. I called first thing when they opened on Tuesday and asked if he was available for adoption, the answer was yes. Then when we drive all the way out to Kent they tell me he is in surgery (it got postponed from the day before) and would be ready to pick up at 4 or 4:30. So I adopted him before I got to meet him but fine with me. So Ray and I went to the SuperMall and walked and then we went and saw The Guardian. There was like 10 people in the whole theater on a Tuesday afternoon. So after the movie we got to go and get him. We named him Max. He slept pretty much the whole night since he was still coming off some drugs. The next day he was a much happier dog. Only problem, when I left in the morning on Wed and Thurs he got so anxious that he started chewing the blinds. So we are now missing 6 blinds and 7 more are all chewed up on the bottom. He is definately a mama's boy. He doesn't listen to Ray very well yet. I keep trying to tell him to listen to his daddy. He only poops for Ray though, not for me. Funny. Anyway, we have a new member to the family. Mister Max Isom. He is 2 years old and we're so happy to have him! We got him a ball at Petco the other night. He almost grabbed it out of my hand at the store he was so excited. He loves that ball, he sleeps with it even! I can't wait to show everyone pictures! We put a computer on layaway at Wal-Mart so we should have that by November! :D FINALLY!

People are idiots!

Ok, so work is still going well. I love it here, I love what I do but I'm sick of the stupid people! If you're not going to really go through with renting an apartment then don't put your application in and don't put a deposit down! I've had like 10 cancels or denials in the last month. Seriously, almost every apartment I rent, it gets put in the computer as a cancel. It makes my numbers look horrible and it's really starting to piss me off! And to top it off, we have 20 apartments to rent right now and nobody is seriously looking. Everyone that I have had come through that door is just kinda looking around. They're not serious about it and that is such a waste of time. Take them on a tour and take a half an hour to show them something and then when you try to close the deal they back off and don't even take applications to even make them seem interested in it. So that was my vent session. I had to do something, I was upset.

So last night Tiffany, Kimberly, Misty and Diana and I went to the Mustard Seed. I shouldn't have eaten dinner there. I was so hungry from not eating all day that I got a grilled chicken sandwich and a side salad but then I was so full I couldn't drink anything else. It was still fun to hang out. Ray stopped by for a beer but when he came it seemed like we just started talking about work. Wasn't too fun for him. Misty is moving to California today so it was fun to see her before she left. I would have put the picture on here but nope...still no computer. Hopefully next week I can get either that or a couch.

I went shopping last week and got some new pants that fit better. Still kinda big in the legs so I need to lose some weight in the stomach so the pants fit well all over. I also went to Nordstrom and got fitted for bra. I was wearing a 42DD and now I am a 42H. Big difference. My back doesn't hurt like it used to and the fit is amazing. I bought 3 bras at $34 a pop (amazing price for Nordstrom!) but now I found a website to buy the same brand so I can get them whenever. :D Seriously, go to Nordstom and get fitted, it's amazing the difference it makes! Oprah is the best!

Not much else is new. Maybe more next week after I get my big paycheck and go shopping. Hope all is well with everyone!

Where to start...

Ok, so I haven't done any big updates because I don't get comments so I don't think people are reading but here is a nice big one for you. I just typed all this up, and then blogger kicked me off when I was almost done so now I have to re-type it all. I'll start with most recent news since it is so fresh.

First: I spent the last three days in bed sick with food poisoning. WARNING: DO NOT EAT AT MCDONALD'S BY OUR APARTMENTS!!! If you have never had food poisoning, I will never wish that pain on anyone! I was absolutely miserable! It felt like someone was tearing my stomach in pieces! I missed work too so my next paycheck isn't going to be the best.

Second: My mom came over on Monday and Ray's mom came over on Tuesday to see our apartment. Ray's mom brought me flowers and she brought us a fan and our microwave. It was nice for Ray to have that microwave the last couple of days since I couldn't cook for him.

Third: On Saturday we had our family's annual August Birthdays celebration. It was nice to see everyone. Ray came with me and he wanted to stay longer than me so he could play volleyball! It seemed like he had a good time which I'm glad about. My grandma had hip replacement recently and she was doing great, walking really well. My grandpa got an ipod for his bday present, he can't wait to put his classical music on there! I got to see Jaime's engagement ring, it's one carat round solataire, it's so pretty! The wedding is going to be next summer so I'm excited for that! Jace and I read some books while everyone else played volleyball, that was our fun time. It was sad to have Janae gone but I know she is having fun at WSU. She got into the Sarority (I don't know how to spell that) that she wanted so that was fun to hear! Melissa is back at school also. Her last year so she started applying to medical school. She got something back from UW saying they wanted to interview or something so we're all hoping she gets accepted there!

Fourth: The apartment is slowly coming together. I finally got a vacuum the other day and the carpet looks much better. We haven't done anything with the spare bedroom, until we have a desk not much we can do. We still need a futon cover and some dining chairs. The only bedroom furniture we have is a bed right now, I know what I want, just a matter of getting it.

Fifth: My paychecks once a month are going to be great! I got $500 in commissions last month, the end of September I will have over $1000 in commissions! I'm so excited! That's on top of my regular pay!

So that is about how life is going right now. I would love to get more comments so I know that people are actually reading/interested. ;-) Hope all is well with y'all! (sorry still no pictures until I get a computer, anyone feeling generous?)

Updates

Just thought I would give y'all a little update. Ray and I are unpacked. Putting stuff together was not so fun, the bar was impossible to put together but the finished product looks great. I don't think it has quite hit me yet that we're living together. It's been good so far. We finally have a pretty full fridge. It took like 5 shopping trips to get it that way. The first one was the biggest. I get paid on Friday, my first commission check!, so I'm doing some shopping of stuff that we don't have yet. I'm getting off work early on Saturday to go to the family August party. Then after that Jen is having her 30th bday party. Should be a fun night. I'm excited. Apparently Misty's bacherlorette party is Friday night, we'll see if I'm still invited though. Anyway, things are going very well. Life is good right now, Ray even said we could go shopping for rings! :D

TODAY IS MOVE DAY!!

Hey everyone!! I have been sooo busy lately packing and working! I worked 23 hours of overtime this week, working a total of 63 hours for the week!!! That is crazy!! (nice money though) The last couple of days have been crazy. I got home last night, finished packing until 11pm then this morning my dad and I got up at 6am and loaded up the truck and the car and were on the road by 7am and had everything unloaded in the apartment by 7:30. I got some stuff put away before I had to get in the shower but now I am at work and I can see Ray and Randy unloading from their trucks and I wish I was over there. 6 more hours to go. I'm so happy and excited and YEAHH!! Just wanted to fill y'all in on how I was feeling today, besides being tired. Hope all is well with you!

So not much new to report. I'm so excited about moving!!! Only 2 more weeks!! Unpacking is one of my favorite things because then you can put things away wherever you want. We went the the Bite of Seattle yesterday and it was so much fun!! I ate a ton of food though! My menu consisted of:
Alligator on a stick
Coconut prawns
Chicken kabob
Chocolate dipped strawberries on a stick
Seafood wrap (crab cake, shrimp and ceaser salad) DELICIOUS!
Margarita
Mike's hard lemonade
(i think that is it)

It was crazy though because it was so HOTT out! Everyone was sitting in the shade or running through the fountain! Even we all ran through, well everyone but Ray did. The Blue Thunder was there (drumline from Seahawks) and we listened to a couple of bands. Ray and I got a cartoon drawing of us done. It's so cute! We're a pre-historic couple and I'm dragging him behind me from the shirt, very cute! It will be framed in the apartment! We also got a beautiful blown glass candle holder to put on our coffee table. I just got the corner bar I ordered the other day! I can't wait to put it together! I'm so excited! :D So all we need now for the apartment is a computer and dining chairs. :D I'm already planning what to make to eat for our house-warming party! Well, back to work I go.

It's OFFICIAL!!!

So, big news now is that Ray and I are moving in together. We'll be living at the complex where I work. It's a great two bedroom apartment, lots of space. I would have lived with a girl but I have no girlfriends to live with so Ray it is! ;-) I am very excited! We move in on the 6th of August. I told my parents. They of course didn't take it very well, wasn't expecting them to. But I am excited and it's my choice, that's how I feel. We went shopping at IKEA and got a bookshelf, some mirrors and a kitchen table! The table was only $50 because it was their 'Only Happens Twice A Year Sale!' It was definately crowded!

So work is still going really well! I fell down while taking someone on a tour the other day and fell on the same knee that I always seem to fall on. Didn't feel too good. And it was very embarassing! I seem to fit in very well here and that's nice. All of us get along well in the office. I'm not quite over how I was treated before so I still take some stuff a little too personally but I'm working on it. Ray has been meeting me for lunch a lot which is a nice break in the middle of the day.

My cousin Jaime got engaged over the weekend of the 4th!! How exciting!! They will be getting married next summer! We've been waiting for him to finally pop the question. He asked Tammie & David's permission first (of course they were going to say yes, he's already part of the family!) and I guess he asked over dinner. I haven't heard all the details yet. Erica turned 13 in June, I can't believe she is so old already! A teenager! I can remember when all of them were born!! Janae graduated high school and will be going to WSU in the fall. She is leaving on August 13th so I'm hoping to have her over before she leaves. It was a big couple of weeks for our family but definately exciting!

Didn't do much on the 4th. I couldn't go to Moses Lake because I had to work Saturday and Sunday. Ray and I played mini-golf at Willows and I won! I got a hole in one also! :D Then we hung out at a friend's for BBQ and fireworks. Sad that it isn't what I'm used to for the 4th and not having Jess here to celebrate her bday on the 3rd made me sad too. Wish she was here.

Anyway, that's about it for today. Just wanted to give you the big updates. And, I need a computer so I can start downloading some pictures. So until then, I won't be posting any pics. So sorry.

New Job

Hey everyone!! So, my new job is going GREAT!! I absolutely love it here! I fit in really well which is nice. Misty and Tiffany (asst manager & manager) seem really happy with me and with the hard work I've been doing. They keep telling me that I'm a fast learner. I definately want to learn as much as I can. I got my first paycheck yesterday and it was more than I was thinking it would be so that was nice. My goal is to eventually move up in the property management field. If I am a property manager that doesn't live on site then I will need my real estate license so I can go and get that now that I'm done with school!!! I took my test on Wednesday and I only got one answer wrong!! Yippee for me!! I feel like I'm the only one out of all my friends that works. Everyone is always going out and everything but if I don't get enough sleep I can't function the next day, kinda annoying. I really wish I could go out, I miss everyone but I would rather concentrate on my job. I work Wednesday through Sunday so I have Monday and Tuesdays off. It is definately different but I'll get used to it. It's been so hot over here the last 2 days and is supposed to continue to be so on Tuesday my plan is to sit out by the pool and get some much needed color in me!! I think we're going to Rhonda's tonite to watch UFC, I guess it is the finale of the reality show and Ray is super excited about it. So I was really excited because I got my pink razor phone. Well the thing was being retarded and I talked to probably 8 people employed by Tmobile and I finally talked to someone today that told me I could get a new phone on warranty!! About time! everyone was trying to tell me I needed my original sales receipt from when I bought it online (on the 10th) but it has been less than 14 days (well today is the 14th) so there was no reason for me to have the receipt. (the battery wasn't lasting more than 5 hours before dying and I got a replacement battery and that still didn't work) So, Michelle at Tmobile helped me this morning and is sending me a new (or refurbished) pink razr and I should have that in 7 days. Yeah!! No more dead cell phone! :D

Short Update

Just wanted to let everyone know that my new job is going great! I love it! So much better than my old one! I actually love my boss which is a new concept for me!! ;-) Anyway, I will definately be writing more later, just wanted to let y'all know what was going on. xoxo

Just felt like typing about life

So I've made it this far, let's see if I make it all the way to Thursday. Bruce took me to Subway for lunch on Monday and Kim is taking me to lunch tomorrow, not sure yet what I want though. I wrote a little goodbye email to people today just to let those know that didn't already that I was leaving. I got a lot of nice emails back which made me feel good. I'm doing my best trying to train both Juli (new admin assistant) and Amy (new receptionist). It is hard to train two different people on two different jobs. Apparently Adrienne didn't believe that I really showed them how to do everything and asked them if I did or not. Whatever, she needs to stop being such a witch.

I still have some shopping to do for some new clothes. I need a blazer and it is definately not the right time of the year to go blazer shopping. The cheapest one I found was for $66.00. I was hoping that I wouldn't have to spend that much but I guess I will. I'll have to try that one on and the $80 Alfani one at Macys. Long term investment there. I did find out that I will be getting a discount on rent, not sure yet what percantage it is yet. I will probably be moving in around September. I went back on Friday to get some paperwork and it was nice to see Tiffany (manager) and Misty (asst manager) so excited for me to start. Makes me feel wanted and needed. I am definately excited to start. Nice to be getting my career started.

The teacher gave us our final test to study so that we will actually pass the real thing on the 21st. The first time I took it at home I got a 63%!!! How horrible am I! So I studied some more and she gave us some study time in class yesterday so I took it again and got an 84%! Much better! So I studied the answers that I got wrong and I now understand why I got them wrong so I will take it again tonite and hopefully it will 100%! So our final test is on the 21st and our final class day is the 26th. The time just flew right by!

I was telling Ray the other day that I can't believe it has only been a month since we went on vacation! It seems like it has been so much longer than that! I got all the pictures printed and got them the other day. Some turned out just beautiful! The sky is an extra bright bright blue in some of them and it looks so gorgeous! It was a fun trip and I hope we can take another one soon.

Jessica called a little bit ago. It was nice to talk to her since we both are so busy lately. I really want to go down and visit her in September but with moving out I'm not sure if I will have the money. And with starting a new job I'm not sure about the vacation time yet, if I get it before my first year...I think they will be up here in August, not positive though. I sure hope so because I miss her!

Oh, and the best news of the weekend...I got a pink phone!!! I got the pink razr through Tmobile and I LOVE it! So freaking cute and so fun and so exciting!!! Ray was laughing at me because I was so excited, I was like a little kid on Christmas!

So that is life right now, thought I'd share it since I don't have much to do right now. Have a great day!!!

blah

Well, Carl took me to lunch today since he won't be here for my last week, that is if I am here next week. The way things are going today I'm not too sure if they want me to be here next week. Juli is taking my place, funny that it's another Juli. We hired a new receptionist, her name is Amy. I guess they have everything figured out and ready to go...I don't have a clue what is going on or what to do, just going with the flow.

I'm so excited to start my new job. I'm going out there tonite to start filling out some paperwork so that I don't have so much to do on the 16th. And Tiffany (my boss) is going to show me around the property some.

I was supposed to get my new pink razor phone today but UPS hasn't delivered it yet, not sure why not and I'm kinda annoyed about it. My mom was going to bring it to me but if she comes now she'll get stuck in traffic.

That's about it for today, not much to tell.

Duvall Days

Saturday was Duvall Days!! Good times to be had. I personally drank way too much and made a fool of myself. I was so excited telling Randy and Shawna about my new job and standing there in front of me is Scott. I haven't seen Scott in years!! He's still friends with Cory and he's married now. (I met Scott through Cory, Cory at Taco Del Mar) So anyway, it was great to catch up with him. Him and his wife are friends with Randy and Shawna. It's crazy what a small world it is! So in the pictures it's me and Ray of course, then Jason, Julio (who you can't see because Jason is rude) Ray and Marlis (Jason's girlfriend who I love) and then Ray and his brother Randy. I didn't take too many pictures, I was too busy drinking! ;-) I also got to see Aimee Hern, soon to be Knudson. It was fun to see her. She seems to be doing well. Her and a bunch of other girls I went to high school with had a booth down at Duvall Days.

So I went by my new job the other day and the manager, Tiffany, is just as excited about me about working there! I really think this is going to be a great move for me and a great way to gain experience in the field I want to work in. And then I will be able to move out of my parents house and have my own place which I'm so freaking excited about!! YIPPPEEEE!!!!
