I'm back!

I have been slacking hard core on my blog but i am trying to get better but Facebook has me sucked in. Well lets catch you up… Jan 1 we had a small fire, but all is ok and nothing got damaged but our wall that has the fireplace on it. We got our $8000 tax credit and payed off the truck and some other bills. We have done some updating on our new home; painted the bedroom, put a light in the closet, got a new rustic chandelier in the dining room, trimmed the front tree and a few other things. I got a raise at my new job which is my first raise ever. SO exciting. My car broke down last week and took it to the dealer and it was over $800 to get fixed but had a warranty so i just paid the co-pay, Dev's truck had a flat tire last week and then when he went to got buy just 2 they said he HAD to buy all 4. So he got all new tires last week. $700 later… Uh. Then our snowmobile broke down it is the stater and it is $125 to replace and that sucks big time. We filled our taxes on Saturday so that is nice i might be getting my new camera with it and making $$$ with it this summer doing some photography for some weddings. So happy about that. Well thats about all for now.

Tina and Bett came to visit


Tina and Bett came to visit on Wednesday and we all had such a great time seeing them! They don't come up nearly enough. Although we don't go down there either. Wish we had more $ to travel! Well any ways we had great time with them.

New Job!

I quit my job thinking I had a better one and instead it ended up being telemarketing and I quit that place 3 days after I started. I am sorry but i just can't lie and sell crap at the same time. Any who so I was looking for a job for like 3 days and then had three interviews and I ended up getting another screen printing job and but printing shirt and apparel. I love it it is my 4th day here and it is hard and challenging and i love it! It is for Kimmel athletic and is so nice here very laid back environment heck i wore flip floops to work!

Week update


So now last friday but the one before that I quit my job because I found a new one that paid $1 more hourly so started there monday and quit there wednesday…. I hated it and wasn't sure what that place was all about but guess what it was telemarketing and I couldn't do. I am sorry but i can't lie and sell at the same time.
So I have been out job hunting for the last few days, found 3 potential jobs but one is house cleaning and if you know my family, you'd know why i don't want to do that. Now i am down to two. One is a home decor store only open on thursdays and Saturdays which is my favorite store. and the other is a coffee shop. I really want to do that again but the boss is kind of A.D.D so we will see. I don't have a job yet but have got a few gigs to keep $ rolling in so we are ok for this week. I wish Dev just got like a $8.55 raise and then work would be optional for me, but that is now how life works. SO the hunt continues today. The pic is of Devs firewood truck.

Tonight

Tonight we are watching 2 boys and they are so cute however they have never stayed away from home and we are the lucky ones to break them in. The younger one 5 months did ok going to bed but the 3 year old is not taking it well. He cried for a while and then dev now is watching tv with him to get him to fall asleep but so far no luck. They are the first kids to stay the night at our new home. So fun.

Update!!!


Ok so we have been so buzzy doing little things but it all adds up! I have been slacking on my blog and sorry about that. Life is great we got married August 14th in CDA and we are having a wedding reception in our new home on November 6th. A fall themed party sounds like so much fun, getting both familys together for the first time and having great food should be great. So excited. We have done so much the past few months, finishing the house a little more each day, working a lot to make the payment and just enjoying life.
We also have been visiting a lot of friends this weekend we are going to see what it is like to have 2 boys. We are watching them for a friend one (Ryan) is 3 and the other (Matthew) is 5 months so this should be so fun. We LOVE kids and so we are both looking forward to watching them. We had a wonderful birthday season (September is our family's birthday month) and now on to planning a reception and then the holidays. So excited to have them in our new home. We can't wait. Well thats about it for now!
