Catch Up

Randy did not get the job in Wisconsin, but did hear back from the LDS church about a contract position! We were really excited about this, because it could turn into a full time position later. I am also very happy that we will be staying closer to family. Wisconsin seemed like a really nice place, but far, far away. I am still working at the financial aid office, which is nice for now.

I am so excited to start gardening soon. My mom has a big garden with some extra room that she said that we could use. Warm weather, here we come! I am soo ready to say goodbye to the cold! Randy and I have also been married for over 6 months now, which is crazy! In some ways, time has flown by, and it seems like we were married like two months ago. I am happy to say that I am more in love with him than ever before :)

I really would like to compile a list of awesome books to read. Do you have a favorite book? If so, what is it? Please feel free to comment so my list of books to read can grow!

Let's see... I am also happy to report that I have worked out at least three times a week since February, excluding a couple of weeks ago when I was just too darn lazy. Randy and I would like to ride down the Jordan River Parkway soon, so I have to see if my old bike will still work. We also want to start jogging together outside. I love the spring/summer! It's my favorite time! I just love warmth.

Oh, and I have a new nephew!!! His name is Aiden, and he is a cutie :) I have a picture of Aiden playing his first video game, after being only a few days old. Okay, it's really Kristen playing while holding Aiden, but it was still cute.

  1. What kind of books do you like? I have to favorite Authors, Jennifer Weiner and Jodi Picoult and I have several of both of their books if you want to borrow them. I also just finished a short one, The Diary of Mattie Spenser, also a good one. It all depends on what you are into if you would like any of the ones I have or not. We'll chat more about them at work.

  4. I'm a sucker for the books I read in junior high. "The Giver"; "The Ear, the Eye, and the Arm"; "True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle"; and I'm sure I could remember some more. They're all easy reads, so I revisit them annually. (And by the way, I'm totally gung-ho about moving. We are so there.)

  5. I agree with Anna--I love A Single Shard. My Name is Keoko by the same author is also good. I have a ton of books I love and should give you the list. I can't remember them all. I wish I had more time to read!! Congrats to Randy on his job and on the Road-e-o. :)

  7. I'm planning on reading Dave Ramsey next myself. We listen to him almost every night. Yup, we're nerds like that.
