#1 for O-10

Yeah, I'm not sure how I'm going to get out of that habit. Oh, well.

Well, here it is, our first blog of 2010. Woohoo! :) Life has been good. Tonight we went over to the McCarthy's and had a super great time eating spaghetti, watching Push, and playing Rummy. I just love spending time with them and just laughing and laughing with friends. I did not like how Karl had to leave to go to work :( but I can live with it. Atleast Amanda was able to spend time with us and is staying up with me. :)

I have really enjoyed the school break and am not so excited about having to go back on Monday but what can you do? We both have been truly blessed this year, more than we can say: Karl's graduation in Dec 08, being able to spend time with my dad in Michigan for Spring Break, student teaching, Karl's first real job outside of college, getting our first place at Lakeshore, GETTING MARRIED!!!!, having an adventure in Alaska, gaining another neice, both of us getting hired (Tom Green County Jail & TLC Academy), buying our first house, starting Grad School, getting our first puppy, cooking our first turkey, having our first Christmas as a married couple, and who could forget the Kidney Stones?? There have been so many great things that have happened and looking back we really have been so blessed. This little puppy really knows how to make me laugh. I have never seen a dog her size chase their tail so much.

We have one of my sorority sisters coming tomorrow to hang out with Amanda so that should be exciting. We are going to make homemade pizza so I am super excited. Isn't that world just super . . . SUPER!!! :)

Well, there is not much left for me other than I definitely need to catch some zzzz's. Adios!

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...
