It's FRIDAY!

I'm happy its friday, but not looking forward to a double on Sunday...
We went a looked at our new home in East Mesa and we really liked it. Brandon's brothers (matt and josh) will be staying with us untill they can get on their feet. Neal (our landlord) is putting all new carpet in and so then we can move in on the 5th. I couldn't be more excited to finally have our own place after 6-7 months of living with other ppl. It's been nice and I'm extremely thankful to have such good friends in our life.

I have to work tonight as usual, but tomorrow I'm hopin my good friend Sami isn't too busy so we can go out and have GIRLS NIGHT! Nothing more has been happening, so this post is pretty short, but that's the update from the past couple of weeks.

O wait... Yesterday during my lunch hour I decided to try this place called the Fresh Mint (healthy food) cuz I heard it was really good. I walked in asked for a take out menu and said "Can I add chicken to my salad?" O BOY! The lady was so affended and said "Mam this is a vegitarien resturaunt." I was so shocked I have never seen or been to one before and I felt so bad for asking for chicken. I walked right out of there pretty quickly cuz everyone was looking at me like I was a animal killer! I didn't mean to, but hey you find all sorts of interesting places down here in the valley.

It's the new year...finally!

Wow! Six months of marriage has FLOWN by! I know six months isn't long at all, but It feels like just yesterday we were getting ready for the big day. The first six months of marriage has been really good. I guess we are technically in the honeymoon stage, but I personally think we went through that a long time ago. Sure we have had our ups and downs, but we are very thankful that the good has always over come the bad :] I don't believe in "stages of marriage". I believe you take your life day by day and that everything happens for a reason. Therefore I look forward to the memories we will be making and adventures we will be taking in the near future.

I love starting the new year out with full time jobs. It feels so good to have a full time good payin job for me and for my husband...2009 was the best and the worst at the same time. The good: Brandon asked my mom for my hand in marriage on January 16, 2009 and of course she said yes. We set our date and got married on July 4, 2009. Unfortunately after we moved back to Arizona from Colorado to get married we became unemployed. Finding work was such a rough task for 2009. Brandon decided he wanted to have a career rather than a job that goes pay check to pay check so he decided to join the union for sheet metal work. I think its one of the smartest decisions he has made for his future. He tells me that work goes by so fast and thats one of the best jobs to have. He is working full time and going to school and I couldn't be more proud of him. I also have a job that I LOVE ! I work at a community in Scottsdale for the elderly. My job is very rewarding and I get paid great money so I guess its true you can have your cake and eat it to :]

Now in 2010 I believe good things will come our way because we are both so supportive of each other and positive; we make the most of every good and not so good situation. On April 6th I will be celebrating my 21st birthday and my sister is ALREADY planning the party! I love her! On April 10th we will celebrate 3 years of being together strong and I'm so happy for that. Then last but not least we will celebrate our one year anniversary of marriage on July 4th :D I look forward to what is to come in 2010.

I hope everyone is having a great start to the new year. Lets make it a more positive, loving, and caring year!
