Deep thoughts on hypocritical people...

I'm so sick of people saying one thing and doing another. If you say you are poor and make everyone feel sorry for you because you are, then you better well live stinking poor. None of this going out and buying new, expensive crap and then saying you can't afford food or gas. I HATE THAT. Be smarter than that.

Labor Day Weekend!

Yay, I love holiday weekends. Why you ask? Because I get to be off work and still get paid for it! Today is a half day at work (I didn't even know we had those!? It is like grade school again!) so I get to leave at 11:00 and spend some time with Heath.
Things are going pretty good here. Heath quit his job at HCA so he could go to school full time and started his semester this week at TCC. He is enjoying his classes so far and LOVES not working. He is looking into a part time job to help out and might just get a job at our Wal Mart with our friend Joey. I am just so greatful for all the hard work he put in at HCA even though he hated that job. He is so awesome!
I am still working at Presby-Denton. It has been good, although I have to admit it has been hard to motivate myself some days. I have the worst attention span and my head wonders a lot, and that is not good at a job where productivity is everything.
Both of us got callings in our Ward. I am the "Publicity Person" for Enrichment and Heath is a Ward Missionary. Is it bad to say I was a little disappointed and sad that I didn't get Heath's calling? I love missionary work because I am product of it. Drawing memos and signs for upcoming Enrichment nights just seems lame, but I am glad to get more involved with Relief Society and get to know some people (Honestly, I would have loved Nursery or Primary, but because I did that before, they wouldn't even think of me for it again). I'm sure the Lord has a plan for me in all of this but I just don't know it yet.
Last night we got to go to Chuck E Cheese's with Ben, Mer, Syd, Mal, and Cody. It was so much fun to run around with Syd and play games with her. She is such a sweet kid and we are so lucky to be able to be so close to them. We got over a 1000 tickets and got Syd some great, well junk, but fun junk. What a fun time.
A couple of weeks ago we went on a little trip to San Antonio for the weekend. It was a blast! We stayed on the Riverwalk, did some sightseeing, and went to Sea World. It was nice to get away and spend some time together and it was our first road trip together!
We are thinking about going camping this weekend, but aren't sure yet. I think that is pretty much it with us. Hope everyone is doing well and staying healthy! Love you guys!

We're alive!

Well as you can see things have been busy, busy and I haven't had any time to get on this thing and update. Well, that and we currently do not have internet at our apartment so it is a lot harder to make time for the good ol' blog these days. Just a little update for what is going on with us...... Heath will be starting school at the end of August, he deferred UNT for a year and is going to attend TCC because he got grants there and only loans to UNT. I am enjoying my new job at Presby-Denton and especially enjoying not having to worry about school! Although I did sign up for my certification exam which I will have to do quite a bit of studying for. We are still enjoying the apartment and everything else is going pretty well also. We are just sitting on the edge of our seats waiting to see if Ben and Mer get this new job in Nashville. We want it for them but also will miss them a ton and can't imagine life without them. Other than that it has just been hanging out, having the girls (Sydney and Mallory) over for swimming, and just trying to relax! Hope everyone else is good. Love you all!

Go Mean Green!

Well it's been awhile since I've posted and a lot has happened! Heath got into school at UNT and he starts this Fall in the School of Engineering. Yay Heath! We are all moved in to the apartment (Ally and all!). She loves living with us and we love having her with us....unless she barks! I started my new job and am loving it. It didn't take me long to get used to their programs and so things are going smoothly. I miss Amy and other aspects of my job at HEB, but I really like coding and working here. Everyone is really nice. Well, that is all I really have to say right now. I am really tired but things are good. Hope everyone is doing well. Love you.

Officially A Coder!

Well I officially have a job at Presbyterian Hospital of Denton! I start Monday, June 16th and I couldn't be happier about it. It is about 10-15 minutes away from our new apartment so that will be great! This is going to be a great oppurtunity for me. It is a wonderful, huge hospital and I am getting paid great and will be trained in all areas, so I am thrilled! Yesterday I went to sign my pre-employment paperwork and take my drug test (don't worry, I'm pretty sure I passed) :) Everyone was really nice and I am looking forward to starting. My orientation takes two days and then I start coding! I think that is about all for news with us. Hope you guys are doing great!

A new place and a NEW JOB!

So things have been pretty busy around here lately. The Breinholt's came down for Mallory's baby blessing and stayed for a week. Heath and I were busy with work and getting things ready for our new apartment. Yep, we finally moved out of the old parent's house and into our own place again. We LOVE our apartment. It is so nice. It is the next best thing to a house for us. We also had to buy a couple of new things. We got a washer and dryer, a vacuum, and a new mattress (our other one got mold on it from storage!). So it has been an eventful, yet expensive last week for us. We are still unpacking and trying to give everything its place but we are really enjoying it. I'll put up pictures later. And in other news.....The job hunt can end! I have been interviewing with Presby Denton Hospital for the past 2-3 weeks and yesterday they called me back with a job offer. Of course I don't know what it is yet because I didn't get the message until late last night, but it looks like I'll be starting my new coding job on the 16th (that is when they signed me up for orientation). Life is just great right now. I am almost afraid to say that in fear that we've hit our blessings quota for the month and are due for a trial soon or something, but honestly we have been so blessed lately. We truly know that Heavenly Father hears ours prayers and knows our needs. We also know we are blessed because we pay our tithing. We are just so grateful for all that we have and all the people we have to share it with. We have such wonderful family that support us (even when we go out and buy a huge TV) and that love us. We love you guys too! Hope all is well with everyone. We miss you Utah Breinholts and hope your trip back was safe!

What a trip!

So I am finally a Graduate! Yay! Graduation was perfect. We just went out with some family to a local restraunt and it was a lot of fun. Four days later we left for Utah and had a blast with Heath's family. I even hiked a mountain! A mountain! Just saying it twice for all you unbelievers out there (mainly me). After we hiked a mile and a half up we went through some caves ( This was quite a feat for me considering I am claustrophobic) and then we hiked down another mile and a half. Needless to say I hurt for about three days following but it felt great to do something like that! We did lots of other great things too. We visited the Bountiful Temple and did some family history work. The Temple was covered with these beautiful huge tulips and it was just a wonderful time. We also went downtown and looked around Temple Square, saw the new Joseph Smith movie at the Joseph Smith Memorial Building, and ate lunch at the Lion House. We had a ton of fun! It is so surreal to be back in Texas today but we love it here, it just feels like home to us. Now that we are back into the "real world" it is job hunting time for me and school applying time for Heath. Welcome back!
