Doing Good So Far

Post #2 of the new year! I'm pretty proud of myself. We just got back from our nephew Benji's 1st birthday party. It was adorable. He loved the Elmo chair we got him. He wasn't quite sure what to do with his cupcake at first, but then he got into it and loved smearing the red frosting everywhere. He is so freaking adorable. Here are some pictures...

















I forgot to mention that we also went to the Barrett-Jackson car auction last weekend. We watch it on TV every year and finally decided to go this year. It was huge and amazing. Here is a picture of me with my future car, the new Dodge Challenger, and a picture of the auction stage.

I am a Slacker.

So, I was all excited when I made this blog for us. I should have known that with my procrasting habits, I wouldn't be good at it. Kelsey said she still checks it all the time, so I'm going to try it again. Maybe this will motivate her to be better about posting on her flickr site. ;)

I'm on my work laptop right now sitting in my hotel room in Eagar, AZ. It's a very small town in Eastern Arizona close to the New Mexico border. It's cold and rainy. I hate working out of town and being away from Timmy and our puppies. It gets lonely and exhausting. I travel so much to towns no one has really heard of, that I don't even bother unpacking my suitcase. I wish I could pick a job based on enjoyment rather than money. But money tends to always come first.

We had a great holiday season. Being married tends to make it a lot more crazy with a lot more family members, but we survived. Timmy got a new car after Thanksgiving, so he is having tons of fun with that. I will have to post a picture of the stripe he painted on it.

2009 has been good so far. Our nephew, Ben, just turned 1!! I can't believe how big and adorable he is. He is still a total momma's boy though. We can't wait to have kids of our own someday. I'm trying to be better about working out this year. Again. I don't know what happened, but getting married has not been kind on my body. We will have to see how long I can keep up my work outs, and if they even have any effect. Timmy can work out for like one day and look more buff. I am now starting to regret buying him that pull up bar...

Well that was a lot of updating. I promise to try and be better about posting, pictures included.
