Merry Christmas to all!

NEW ADDITION.....part 2

NEW ADDITION.....part 1

Dodge Avenger, we traded in our little, no air-conditioning or cruise control Aveo in....

Mark one off the bucket list!

I got to go to an OU softball game yesterday! LOVED MY LIFE! They won 5-0! I had seats behind home plate, got to meet the coach and team and took photos with them. Colby bought me a pretzel and Gatorade at the game.... AMAZING! That's all I can say!

new realization....

I can ride my bike for miles and miles and feel like I'm going no where.... there aren't many hills in town so i just keep ridding because I don't feel myself getting wore out....

new calling...

So I have now been put into the Primary.... first counselor. What a change from Y.W. It's only been one week, but I can already tell that it is going to be an adventure. I'm still so new in the ward, I don't know anyone so now that I will be in primary I really won't get to know to many people, kids but not many adults. I said to someone, "aren't you suppose to have kids or be at least 35 to be in the Primary presidency..." I get to write the program too.... oh boy!

Colby's calling keeps him busy (ward mission leader) and keeps the missionaries in our house quit a bit. We feed them off and on too, which means more cooking for me. Every Saturday they have a meeting, luckily not all of them have been at our house, just most of them.

Anyway, that's some of what's on my mind....

2 YEARS

Tomorrow marks our two year anniversary.... feels longer yet shorter at the same time.

Some of the things that have happened in two years

Lots of jobs

Moved twice

Lots of time apart

Got a puppy

Bought 3 cars

Traded one

Hit and killed one deer

One new nephew

One niece on the way

One flood clean up in Inkom

41 days apart

Lots of miles on our cars

Trips to SLC for railroad interviews and testing

Trips to SLC for mission reunions and confrence

Made lots of new friends

Moved away from lots of our friends

and family

Paid off a few debts

Learned new skills

Tried to buy two houses

Lots of minutes used on our phones

New callings

Been out of our comfort zones many times

Added many friends on Facebook

and so much more

my new job....

I had looked for jobs and applied to for a few on-line once we realized moving to North Platte was pretty much what we would be doing.... I applied for a teller position at Wells Fargo and had two phone interviews/screenings and then set up an appointment for a face to face interview once I got out here, I had that on Wed and got a call Fri from the manager offering me the job. I will start as soon as my background check is complete. :o)

We're here!

We are all moved in... not un-packed but moved in. More to come later!

moving #3

ALL OF OUR STUFF FROM STORAGE IS NOW IN NEBRASKA, NOT UNLOADED BUT IN NEBRASKA. COLBY'S DAD TOOK A TRAILER OUT TODAY AND WHEN I TALKED TO HIM ABOUT 20 MINS AGO HE WAS 75 MILES FROM NORTH PLATTE. ALL THAT'S LEFT IN IDAHO IS ME, CHUNK, MY CLOTHES THAT ARE IN SODA, THE TRAIL BLAZER AND THE SNOW BLOWER. SO I GUESS THAT MEANS I'M ONE WEEK CLOSER TO LEAVING IDAHO. CRAZY! TIME GOES TO FAST SOMETIMES. I'M AMAZED AT HOW FAST JANUARY AND THE FIRST PART OF FEBRUARY HAS GONE. WHICH IS A GOOD THING I GUESS.

MOVING Part 2

colby has been in nebraska for a month (tomorrow) and I will be going out on presidents day weekend... so that means bye bye idaho.... SAD. I told my y.w. sunday that i was for sure going and when.. for those of you that know how hard hearted i am.... i cried.... yes you read that right... i cried...one girl said are you going to cry, i said no, she told me it's okay if you do. anyway, that's the up-date

***********************

not really sure about life. colby has been gone 22 days, i'm working in soda, going to inkom on the weekends for church (to still be with my YW) chunk is acting up, ie running away for a while and going potty in the house, don't know when i'm going to nebraska, don't know if i should keep going to inkom on the weekends(even if I am happy when I'm there) not working very many hours, can't sleep very well, finished my personal progress so now i have more time to do nothing..............
