Time Flys...

Well, as the title says, time flys by when you are having fun (or possibly just living life). After talking with my friend Kim, I think I have to get better at this blogging thing. Try to post more and be interesting.

So here's a start, a picture of our new car!

This is Bill's newest baby. In March, we traded in our Eclipse, bought this, and have made two whole payments on it. (Only 70 more to go!)
Also in March, my sister Kacie went to her Senior Prom. I just loved her dress! She made it modest and it was still gorgeous. She went with her friend Clint. They look a little "emo", but they had a lot of fun!









More things going on.... Bill turned 25 and seemed to have a quarter-life crisis (I guess that explains the new sporty car!) He just doesn't feel like he should be 25 yet, but who ever does?!
I "decorated" his cake with 25 cancles and the "2" and "5" candles. I'd post a picture of him with the cake, but one, he wouldn't like that and two, he didn't look happy that I took his picture anyway!




We celebrated our 2nd Anniversary in April. Hard to believe that is has been two years already! Hopefully in another year, we will be moving out of my parents' basement and into a house of our own. We are living there to save money and until Bill finds another job. He took the Post Office test a few weeks ago and did really well. We are still waiting to hear his results. In the meantime, Bill is working on getting into shape in order to reapply at the prison. Things are looking up and progressing everyday!

Birthday 2007

Last Friday was my birthday so I took a few days off work in order to fully celebrate. Bill and I went out to a movie and lunch. We saw "Enchanted" and I just loved it. Of couse, I'm a big fan of Disney so this was right up my alley. Then it was off to lunch at Applebee's where I stuffed myself 'til I was almost sick.
While up north, we went to visit my in-laws and see how Nana was doing with her recovery. She had surgery on her neck to fix a disk. So far she is recovering well, but there is still a long way to go. I got a few gifts from the family and we had cake.
Saturday, Bill had a surprise planned for me. He had made reservations for us to go on a boat cruise on the Great Salt Lake. It was quite an experience to be on a boat with snow on all sides (and on the boat too!). My parents came with us and my mom got a few good shots. I'll have to post some when I get a chance to use her computer this weekend.
After the cruise, we went to dinner at The Cheesecake Factory. I had been looking forward to it ever since I heard that there was going to be one built in Utah. Sadly, it was a bit of a let down. After an hour and a half wait, the food was ok and the cheesecake was frozen! Not to mention, I was sick for the rest of the night.
I woke up around 2 am sick as can be and wasn't able to eat more than crackers and apple juice all day Sunday. Apparently I knew that I would be getting sick and had taken all that time off of work in order to accomidate being sick. What a waste of good annual time! Thankfully I was feeling better by Tuesday and was able to attend "A Christmas Carol" at Hale Centre Theatre with the Young Women.
