Ok...so first I'll tell you a little about what we did this summer. Billy went out to Detroit, MI to sell security systems with a company called Platinum last April. I had to finish school and go to New York for my senior showcase so I didn't join him until May. About a week after moving to Detroit we found out the company was moving us to Pittsburgh and we had to pack everything back up. As it turned out, things weren't working out with the company and we decided to switch to a company called Apex. My brother-in-law Glenn had a brother who was managing an Apex office in Florida so we packed our things and moved to Clearwater. Billy sold door to door and I worked as an office assistant for the same company. The market in Florida wasn't as good as we hoped so our manager Andy moved the office Jackson, Mississippi. So by that point I had moved three times and hoped that we were going to stay put this time. Despite having our car broken into on our first night there, Mississippi turned out to be an awesome market and Billy was really successful selling there. Yay! (He even won an X-Box 360 for selling 10 systems in four days!)
After a long summer we took a road trip to visit both of our families and then moved into our apartment in Pleasant Grove in the beginning of October. We have had fun buying our first couch and our first table and decorating our new apartment...even billy helped me decorate! We have had fun putting up art and matching colors. Billy has a very good eye when it comes to putting up pictures. He is such a sweet and helpful husband. Since we were so busy working this summer we decided to take the next few months and spend some time together. We were able to go to Wisconsin for Thanksgiving, the Bahamas with our friends Andy and Tricia, Idaho for Christmas, and even Mexico! It would take too long to tell you every detail of those trips, but they were amazing! We ave been surrounded by great friends and family and feel so blessed to have to means to visit them so often.
I guess that brings us to the present. Right now I am taking my last Ballet class and billy is figuring out what online classes he wants to take. He has had a nice break and is getting ready to start preseason selling with Apex. We have a few months to relax and then another summer of door to door adventures! Thanks for reading! Check out some of the pictures from our adventures over the year...
