Only Two??

Wow! It really has been two years. It has been the best two years! ("We just think you look great in white...") Joseph and I have been married for exactly two years today! I have to keep telling myself this because it doesn't seem so. Maybe it will sink in in a year or two. ;)

I'm going to start a list that I will add to every year. I will have as many reasons as how many years we have been married.

My husband is the greatest because...
1-He makes me laugh EVERY DAY!
2-He is very heroic. He will kill any spider I ask him to.

Even though these do not describe the full greatness of my loving husband, it's a start to something I hope will begin to express my expansive appreciation for him.

Joe, I love you so much! You are my best and truest friend. Thank you for everything you do for me and all the grand times we've had! There are many more to come, I'm sure! XOXOXO!

Jackson Hole

In September Joe and I went to Jackson Hole for a weekend trip with Mickey and Brian. We all had such a blast! We took the tram up the mountain where it was about 40 degrees! It was freezing. There was all ready snow in some spots. Later that day we went to see the Bar J Wranglers at the Bar J Chuckwagon. They are a fun group to watch. Along with great singing voices, they are hilarious comedians. All in all, it was a busy but relaxing weekend. I certainly enjoyed the getaway. Here is a taste...

Erm....are we sure about this?

Today I was driving home from school and I came to a stop sign and was behind a semi. The semi moved forward. I tried to. I ended up squealing the tires very loudly and killing the car! Normally this would have upset me. This time I busted up laughing and couldn't stop! I had tears in my eyes. Then I realized there was a car behind me! My blurry eyes noted the man and woman in the front seat looking at me incredulously. It seemed as though they thought I had meant to squeal the tires until they realized that I wasn't moving. I was still laughing as I quickly started the car and moved forward. Luckily, I didn't kill it again or I might have gotten a horn honked at me. It was an interesting experience. I'm glad I laughed about it instead of letting it ruin my day. Hooray for me! Although, I'm not certain that driving a standard is for me. Am I sure about this? Time will tell, I suppose. Good luck to me.

Our Baby Dunkin! :D

This is Dunkin our new puppy! He is 5 weeks old. He is a miniature Australian shepherd/black lab mix. Dunkin is absolutely the most adorable thing on the face of this earth! We love him forever and always! Enjoy these photos...

Schoolness!

I know I'm a little late in telling everyone about it but...I started school! I began in the middle of February and I've been going for 6 weeks. I'm going to Bridgerland Applied Technology College and doing the Business Technology Program. It is a self-paced program so I can move through everything very quickly. I've already finished 2 courses- Operating Systems Fundamentals (Welcome to Windows) and Records Management (filing). I am now working on Microsoft Word, Business Calculations (which I'm almost finished with), Keyboarding, and just last Monday I started Accounting 1. I love learning and being able to do it at my own pace! I'm hoping to be done with the program before the year ends. I've got a lot of work to do! Also, this summer I will be doing my photography classes! Mickey also wants to take those classes. How fun would that be to do them together?! I'm excited! Joseph is also getting excited about starting school. He'll be able to start in June! It is going to be really crazy and for sure a little lonely with both of us in school and with Joe working as well. We were talking about it and we will only get to see each other for maybe 2 hours on weekdays! :( But we should have most weekends together. One more incentive for us to get through school as fast as we can!!

Way cool!

Yesterday I was cutting up some bell peppers. I cut a green one in half and found that some of the seeds had started to sprout!! It was really sweet! I had never seen that before in my life so I had to share. Unfortunately, I didn't think about taking a picture so if you've never seen this you'll just have to take my word for it. Or just ask Mickey. She witnessed it as well. Haha yeah. Way cool! :)

Say Goodbye.....

TO CRUTCHES!!!!!! I am officially no longer using crutches. Hallelujah! Hallelujah! :) Haha! I am beyond excited. After being on crutches for almost TEN weeks, I feel like a new person! This is a new start, and I couldn't be happier.

I also want to add my thanks. To my wonderful husband Joe, who put up with my grumpiness and sometimes downright rudeness when I was frustrated with not being able to walk or be self sufficient. I thank you from the bottom of my heart! And I love you beyond description! :)

And thank you to Mickey! For being my chauffeur, taking care of me, and also being my best friend! I love you! :)

And while I'm on this subject, I also want to say thanks to Brian for making me laugh when I'm sure I needed it most. Please keep it up. I'll tease you if you tease me, elfindwarfian. ;)
