The time has come

I have officially wasted enough time being at home with no job! But I got a much needed break from the every day grind of working two jobs and trying to juggle everything Paul and I had going on. I told myself that it was time to get a job, so I hopped onto craigslist and got a call from Qualstar Credit Union. My job would basically be a teller which is neat, but sooo funny because if any of you really knew me you would laugh as well because I was never really AMAZING with money. Until I met Paul and became the OfficeMax money handler of our family! Which came as a GIANT shock to me that, it was my new task! Anyways I had 3 interviews and each person that interviewed me fell in love even more with how awesome I am! The job came through they told me someone with my personality the would be willing to teach! Which soo works out to Paul's and I's benefit because I get to learn all about loans, mortgages, and handling money even better which only makes it great for the both of us and getting ready to buy a home! I start on Monday, for 5 weeks I will do training and I have to drive at least and hour to get to the main branch in Redmond, WA. BAHHH I hate traffic and I have never had to commute ever in any of my jobs! EVER! So this will defiantly be a new adventure! It will be great to have some saving money, since Paul's job takes care of everything this will be money in da bank! And it means a road bike for me!!!! Wahoo I am really excited about that Paul and I will have a super hobby together that keeps us skinny! BAHHH Paul and I are getting ampped for our exciting vacation to North Carolina this next weekend! It his the Henderson Family Reunion, which is Paul's moms side of the family and I have not met a single one of them so this shall be exciting! We get to spend a whole week in an awesome beach house right on the beach I am so excited that I have even been tanning for months so I won't burn and can actually enjoy some sun! Dexter is growing like a weed, he is 36 pounds and keeps on growing! He graduated from his first Dog Education Class he was soo adorable and did so well!

oh the fourth 2

The last post was just pictures because I was having such a hard time figuring out what picture went with what post blah blah blah whatever I am yet to be super talented with my post lol I shall get better. Anyways, I had an awesome fourth of July week because my whole family excluding Dallin came up to visit and it was awesome! The group got here on the 3rd, so we went to the gravel pit where the rest of Paul's family was and got to shoot of some pretty decent fireworks. Even Ashley, Danielle, and I shot off big ones, although those two ran away screaming from them every time haha. Sunday of course was the Fourth and boy oh boy did we have some adventures. We hit up sacrament meeting went home to change, and Paul took us on a great adventure. We went back to the gravel pit and Paul taught everyone how to drive a Front Loader. So moms dream finally came true she has always wanted to drive some heavy machinery and on the Fourth of July 2010 that dream came true! It was sooo funny watching everyone drive. Danielle was a natural and got the biggest load while mom was the funniest to watch. Ashley was the first person EVER to wear high heels while driving a Front Loader, and Dad was a pro parker, he wedge that Front Loader right where it was supposed to go like a pro. After that we went to the other side of the Port to have a BBQ and watch the air show at the grandparents house. They have an amazing view of the puget sound and they air show was crazy. The acrobatics were amazing and when the jets flew over I have never heard anything that loud! It was a lot of fun. Paul did all the BBQing he has become quite the master since we have gotten our grill and I do love it! Nothing better then some good ole BBQ. It was a little chilly outside for the family from Las Vegas so we headed home for some naps. Fire works were nice and Paul even brought me some sparklers which were awesome! Monday was a good day because Paul had it off of work so he got to hang out a little longer with us which was awesome because I love having him around. Monday I finally got to see the new twilight movie while dad and Paul saw Grown ups. It was a great day Paul left in the early evening to head back to Pasco. Tuesday we went to the glass museum which was ehhh it was way to expensive for what it was, but we did get to see people actually blowing glass and making all different kinds of things and that was really awesome. Hit up the Almond Roca outlet and mom went crazy there she was digging almond roca. Wednesday was and awesome day because we went into Seattle and hit up the aquarium and Pikes Market which everyone loved. We got some awesome fruit and just ate it for days. Having the family was sooo much fun but at the same time when you are used to being by yourself it was just semi stressful to have what felt like million people in my kitchen rear raging things! thanks mom I do love it though. When they left it was hard. Things we went well with my sisters which is a bonus, and well I miss my dad more then anything. It's always easy to be ok when you don't see them, but having to say goodbye is terrible when you know you aren't going to be with them for another 6 months. This weekend will be a little less exciting, Paul is in a bike race though, he is riding for Seattle to Portland in two days so it will be fun to do that, and we shall see how he does hopefully some of his skills from riding across America have stayed haha we shall see...
