How Time Flies . . .

Can you believe that Karl and I have been married for over 6 months? That is half a year!!! We have a house . . . BILLS . . . a beautiful chinchilla . . . BILLS . . . a gorgeous puppy . . . BILLS . . . great jobs . . . BILLS . . . and oh so much more. It is amazing how much we have been blessed even in this short time of being married. But I still can't believe that it has been that long.

I was just spending some time on Facebook . . . you know an hour or so (it seems like you get sucked in for about that length of time and then you wonder where THAT time went, too) . . . and I realized that so much has changed for other people. I have 10 or so friends that just got married and about 10 friends who are about to get married. There are people that I went to college with who are having babies and those that have already had babies and gone through a divorce . . . WHEN DID WE ALL GROW UP??? When did we go from being children to adults????? It's such a weird thing to me.

I look at my kids and think, all my life I was wanting to grow up so I could be an adult and do all these things . . . no limitations . . . and now I want to be able to just sit with the kids and practice my handwriting . . . or color a picture . . . or even take a spelling test! When I have kids, I really want to impress on them the importance of living in the now and enjoying their childhood. When I have kids???? Yiks!!!! A puppy is enough for me right now, thank you.

She is adorable and for the most part is a very good listener and learner but, please, QUIT SCREAMING!!! At night she constantly screams but I don't trust her enough to let her run around the house. So my neighbors prolly all hate Karl and I but for the time being she just has to stay in her crate, no matter how much she hates it. Speaking of the little dear, she is sleeping on daddy right now. :) They are so cute together. She adores him and will easily leave me for him. :) I'm glad they are able to have the bond that they have already. He's so good with her. Now if only she would let him sleep during the day. :) She's got him wrapped already. Can you blame her???? :)

Well, I'm sure I could go on and on for ages, but I really must go . . . and take a picture of those two . . . so adorable! But I do need to do some homework . . . :P.

Until next time . . .


I had to add this pic . . . I think that it is just the most adorable pic ever!!! And that's not biased at all. :)

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...
