Almost a Year!!!!

Hey everyone!  I know it has been such a long time since I have blogged and there is really no excuse, but I am making up for my laziness.  We have done so much in the last year!  Billy and I moved a lot this summer because billy did summer sales.  Also, we moved to Pleasant Grove for the off season and have done lots of traveling.  Now I am taking my last college class ever and billy is getting ready to take online classes and do preseason selling.

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...

Busy Busy Busy

Life has been getting pretty crazy around here! Billy is getting ready to move to Detroit in about a month so we are quickly trying to pack everything up. I will be staying in Utah until the beginning of May so I can finish up whatever packing we don't get done before he leaves. Packing party anyone???

Ok, so I made the not so smart decision to do an independent study course this semester so I could do things at my own pace and now I have about four weeks until I need to have it completed and I've barely finished the first lesson. Needless to say, I am going to be quite busy studying for the next few weeks.

Other than our crazy work and school schedules, I guess I don't have much else to report. I hope everyone is having a great March so far.

We finally did it...

I have been putting off starting a blog for quite some time and now I've finally given in. I've always been a bit hesitant to start one of these things because I have terrible grammar, but finally I realized that most people don't care about that.

Now that you are aware of the reason for the blog, I should probably let you know what we've been up to over the past year. Billy and I have been married for almost fourteen months and time sure does fly when you're having fun! I was in a production of Little Women last fall and now I'm getting ready to graduate this April and go to New York to audition for casting agents (yikes). Billy has a few more semesters left so it looks like we'll be in Utah for another couple of years and then who knows where we'll be?!?! After graduation we are moving to Detroit for the summer so that Billy can sell security systems for a company called Platinum. We're looking forward to making good money this summer so we can finally have a nest egg established. Billy has been great because he has been working hard to support us so I don't have to work while I am finishing up school. I keep teasing him that I will be his "sugar momma" as soon as I graduate.

I think I'll call that good for today. Until next time...
