Only 11 days . . . :)

Yes . . . we will be homeowners in (hopefully, if all the paperwork goes through quickly) in just 11 days and we are SUPER pumped. I think that might be an understatement. :)

I have just finished my second week of teaching and I love it! It was REALLY hard at first but now that the kids and I know each other and kinda how we work, it has been great. My kids are great! They are sooo smart and are, for the most part, very polite. I love it!

But, we do have this three day weekend, which I am absolutely loving, as well. :)

Karl is loving his job. He's been having a hard time falling asleep lately, but I think it's just cuz we have so much going on. We have survived 1 - 2 weeks of Grad School (woot!!!). Karl's has been so much more difficult than mine. He has a 15 - 20 page paper to write by the end of the semester so we will need to pick a topic soon. I have to write a school report due by next Sunday. It's all good.

Last night we went and saw the Hill's and the McCarthy's for dinner. It was amazingly fun! We absolutely loved it! We played this hilariously funny game called "Telephone Pictionary". It was great and I think we laughed the entire game, especially at the end. :) I can't wait to get to see them again. Hopefully soon.

We have been so busy lately and really need to start being social again. It will come, hopefully sooner than we think. Who knows what we'll do this weekend. We may go see Nat & Mara or just hang out at the house. It would be great to get out of the house. We are planning a trip to Bwood on the 25th and 26th, so we are super pumped about that one!!!! :)

Well I better get back to house and job stuff. Hope everyone is doing great!

If this happens one more time . . .

Anyone know a good cell phone service provider? This is the second time that we worked with someone at AT&T and I am about ready to switch providers. We went in there today to get my phone moved to Karl's plan, which we had to get a form filled out by my mom (well, kinda :), it helps when I can sign like mom; it's not like I didn't have her permission) in order to do so. We walked in and talked to this guy, gave him the form, and we thought that he understodd what we needed to be done and he just started going. We got to the point where I would pick out a phone and he started getting stuff ready and I re-asked him, after he wanted to know what number I wanted to use for it, if my phone was now on Karl's plan and he just went crazy on us. Basically he said that we never told him that that is what we wanted. He was very rude, basically saying that it was our fault that he did all this work for nothing. It was very disheartening and I really wanted to tell him to forge...

New Journey . . . Diamond Club

What does it take to make a diamond? Any ideas? According to Wikipedia, you know the source for all things, a diamond is "formed at high temperature[s] and pressure". Karl and I are excited to announce that we will be taking part in journey. A journey that will, hopefully, push us to Diamond. It will take a lot of work but we are excited for this opportunity for our team. What is Diamond Club? Why is this so exciting? Maybe this video will explain it better. Diamond Club creates a great opportunity for EVERYONE! It allows Karl and I to travel to areas that want to grow and also allows for new members to receive additional products with their enrollment and subsequent LRP orders. Free stuff??? Yes, please!!! It really is a great opportunity for everyone on our team. We are looking forward to the immense growth that will happen because of this wonderful opportunity. So you may be asking, how do I get involved? What does this look like exactly? Basically we...

Writer's Corner Number 8

Typed from written Journal Entry: I thought I’d change it up a bit and try writing in journal form tonight. I am also curious to see the difference in length of writing for both writing formats. Dr. Semingson suggested incorporating pictures into our journal writings/posts. I don’t have any pics from growing up – they are all at my dad’s house in Michigan – but I can start adding new pics from Alaska, especially when it comes time to talk about our honeymoon adventures there. Today I want to start by talking about earthquakes. I want to preface this “talk” with a story from when I moved to Texas. Not long into the start of my 7th grade year we practice emergency drills. I remember one of my teachers talking about what to do in case of an emergency: crouch down with your head near a wall and cover your head. I remember thinking that getting near a wall wouldn’t be the safest thing in the world but I didn’t argue – I didn’t know what that emergency drill was for. Now that I’m olde...
