Busy Busy

Wow!  I haven't been on here in awhile.  So a lot of things have been going on, I guess that's life.  For the most part though Scott and I just work a lot.  Over the summer though we did go to Disneyland : )  I haven't been since I was little.  All expenses paid by Scott's grandparents.  They are too sweet.  We went with Scott's moms side of the family.  We went to Disneyland, the beach, an Angels game vs. the Giants and the Giants got spanked!  We went to Universal Studios, which was awesome.  They have a transformers ride that was so worth the wait.  It was the coolest ride.  We also went to California Adventure.  We were gone for a week and the morning we were leaving I saw on facebook that my neighbors were being evacuated!  Our mountain view was now on fire.  Luckily my mom was in town so she had a neighbor climb through our garage window and she got our important documents out.  I was so scared.  The fire didn't get to close, thank you super green farm land in between us and the fire.  My brother, who lives 2 miles away from us, was all I was hoping it would get closer so I could stand on my roof and water it down.  He is crazy!  That fire would have to go through a lot of houses to get to his haha.

On July Friday the 13th, my sister had her sweet baby Brooklyn.  She is adorable!  My sister finally has a girl!  My nephews are so happy.  My youngest nephew Noah was a little confused with why she was coming home with them though.  Haha he is a nut!

I turned 24 this year.  I can't believe it.  For my birthday, my parents came out and brought the boat.  When I talked to my dad about it I was so excited.  When I called Josh about it I thought he was going to die!  He was so excited.  We took the boat to Deer Creek.  It was choppy and but people were still wake boarding.  I don't know how they do it.  We must be spoiled by Folsom because we are used to smooth water.  It was still fun.  The cloud started rolling over the mountains and lightning in the distance.  It was crazy watching all these boats head for the docks.  The next thing we know is rain is at the other end of the lake and lightning getting closer.  Luckily, we were up and out of the water but man those boats were flying through the water to get the boats loaded up.

August 1st, I went to California and I had such a blast.  Some of my family I haven't seen in 7 months, like my sister.  It was so good to see my sister and her family.  I love and miss them.  My nephews are just as cute and crazy as ever.  That week I just laid by the pool and went to the lake and just soaked up the sun.  It was hard to leave and get back to work.

I have been teaching myself how to sew and I really enjoy it.  I have also tried to start up an online business.  I have sold some product and I just have to keep it up and I know it will get going.  The website is www.shopyellowdaisy.com  It has been an experience but a good one.

Today I put in my 3 week notice at work.  It is time for me to move on.  It has been a good place for me to work but lately it has been difficult to work with the owner.  I have learned a lot and I am ready for the next job.  I am going to take a few night courses that UVU gives just at local high schools to teach you pretty much whatever.  I am going to keep growing and learning.  I do plan to get back into school and I think it is time.  I am excited for the journey that is ahead of Scott and I and we are going to keep on trucking.  I love him with all my heart and we are very blessed.

More to come!
