oh my...a new post?

So you may wonder where we've been...our internet is broken and it is actually by some miracle that it is working today...on my day off. Perfect. I have spent the day catching up on blogs but not really commenting because everytime I change screens I take the chance of the internet quitting on me. We have had a busy month but are hanging in there. The Lord continues to bless us each day... for example. Last nite Cody was at work at Cabela's. He parked between two cars before his shift started and when he was off, went outside to his car and found that one car had been stolen and the other one was broke into. Now I guess we could blame it on the fact that the car he drives is just a basic car with nothing special (but believe me its better than the Stratus who's bumper is falling off completely, door handle broken on passenger side, window controls are shoved down into the door, and the hard water in the sprinklers by where I park sprays all over my car everyday and it is caked on. lovely) Anyways, we found it quite a blessing that our car was left untouched. We are truly watched over everyday.

My parents are coming down tonight because they sold the camper so we'll hang out with them and I'm so excited. I haven't seen them in forever!

I work for Dillards now. Its a pretty good job. Its kinda a joke right now because there are more employees than customers and I get really bored but I like that I'm standing all day and not stuck in a chair getting more huge! (I've eaten like half a bag of chocolate chips today...sick but so good)

We got a calling in church for the 10 year olds. Its amazing to me the knowledge a ten year old has of the gospel. I remember when I was in sunday school, I sat in the back and colored my scriptures....yes my scriptures. I have learned more teaching these past two weeks than I have in my whole life. Sad and true.

Me and Cody laid in bed last nite talking about old TV shows we watched and episodes we remembered. Finally about 2 oclock we fell asleep.

I haven't cooked a real dinner since Sunday but it was roast and it was so amazing. We haven't been home for dinner all week. We both eat a bagel sandwich everyday for lunch.

Its amazing to me that paying your tithing really does make money appear in your bank account and all of a sudden there is way to meet all your bills.

Cody rides his bike to school and has lost weight. He also has helped me more with the cleaning. We kinda have an agreement, he does the visual cleaning and I'll do the deep cleaning...the nasty cleaning really.

We haven't really done anything too exciting but we're alive and well and I would say thats an accomplishment in itself!

Also, I got my car washed today and could actually sit outside and enjoy the weather and broken "mister" that just sprayed straight water on me without roasting. I'm so excited for cool weather.

i love that those dang misters are installed all over the dang phx area, and none of them really work. I'm glad to hear things are working for you guys! and how fun that Cody works at Cabela's. I hope things are good. It has been a long time!

Good to see that you are alive and well. It's hard to believe that we live closer now and still never see you. That could be because we can get to Globe in the same amount of time. Anyhow, I remember the early days of marriage. They are fun!! Enjoy them before the kids show up and ruin everything. Just kidding!!
