Updates Finally.....

I cannot believe that it has been another month! Yet again a lot has happened. I will make it short and sweet though :) rrrrriiiiigggghhhhhttttt!!!!!!!!
Our getaway was awesome! We had such a great time in Jackson. The weather was beautiful and it was just fun to be out and to pamper oursleves. Our hotel was exactly how the pictures showed. I could have stayed there for a week or two....and come out broke :( We ended up pampering ourselves and we got a "couples massage" the final day that we were there. It was so relaxing and worth the money. I had never had a massage before then, and I wouldn't mind having more :)
Nate really enjoyed the car show....even though we didn't take any pictures. It wasn't that bad looking at cars. We actually came out of it agreeing on an old car that we would both enjoy. All I remember is that it would be a Ford roadster, but I don't remember what year. There were quite a few of them there and they were way nice. I really woun't mind one. That makes Nate really happy, because there is hope that he can someday have as many cars as his dad :).
Work has been extremly busy! I have been spending a LOT of time in Rexburg becuase we are remodeling the whole call center there. We are having to take down all of the cubicles and then put them right back up after a couple days. They are recarpeting and fixing the roof all in one wack. Just to paint a picutre....there are about 500 desks. Today we took down about 100 desks and set up about 55. We just hit the halfway mark, so it is good to know that there is an end in site. It is extremly hard work and long tiring days.
I had a good birthday on the 28th. My assoicates at work emtied my office and left my phone... and that was all. They moved my desk and belongings out and stored them in an empty office. Each year it really is fun to see what they will do and see if they can top the year before. They definetly did this year!!!! As for family party....it was an interesting day. Nate started the morning out trying to be nice by presenting me with a super nice mountain bike (and him), but I was really concerned with how much he spent. Needless to say he got mad at my response and I got mad back at him.....for the entire day. After talking it out we both decided it was a nice offering, but not the right time, so Nate took the bikes back. We will get them later...possibly next year. Right now we are really focusing on our yard and getting some sod so we don't have to stare at dirt all of the time. :(
Fourth of July was awesome as usual. We went up to Henry's (for the first time this year.... it had snowed too much that we couldn't get into the lot). Lots of family was there and it was just a relaxing weekend. I will warn all of you....and you know who you are... that made the weekend "extra special" that paybacks are coming!!!!! I can't wait to get back up there, but I already feel that summer is half gone and now everything is down hill until Christmas. There are so many holiday's and activities that the time goes by too quick.
Just a couple of small tidbits.... we paid off the Durango!!!! Yeah!!! Our flowers died in front, so we purchased some "real" flowers a couple of weeks ago. They look much prettier and still give the dirt a little more pizzaz.
We caught two frogs while up camping and have adopted them as our own. They are pretty fun. It is fun to watch them attack the crickets we feed them. They seem to like their new home.
Again, sorry for the long post. I really will try to do better :)
Enjoy all the random pictures.
