A Few Items of Business

As you all know I have not been on top of my blogging for a little while now. I have several posts that are half-way written and saved as drafts, but let's be honest, I do not have the umph to get in there and finish them all and you most likely would not enjoy reading a thousand new ones at the same time. SO...I will sum them all up below.

1. I have our apartment unpacked...but it's a daily struggle to try to get the whole place to be clean all at the same time. One day soon I hope that happens...and once it does, I hope a miracle will take place and I'll be able to keep it that way forever and ever...

2. Irving is a great place. I have never met more friendly and accepting people in my entire life.

3. Our ward is awesome.

4. If you are ever looking for a good time, go to Wal*Mart in the middle of the day anywhere in the DFW Metroplex. It is full of mothers, babies, and a few stay at home daddy's who I swear are only there to talk to the other shoppers. I have yet to go and not be approached by at least 5-10 other people who just want to chit chat. It's pretty funny.

5. Marcus loves his job and so do I. I don't think you can beat a 7:30 to 4:30 daily schedule. I love it.

6. This is a big one...We are moving. Just about 25 minutes away to a rockin' apartment out in Lewisville (the city Marcus works in). We will be leaving here November 14. I will miss it, but I can't wait to settle in at the new place as well. If all goes as planned we'll stay in the new place until we move for medical school.

7. Connor, James and Marcus are awesome...I Love them!

8. New TV is starting...can you say Biggest Loser, House, and The Office? That's right!

9. I can't figure out how to make my new family picture fit normally on my side bar. It is either too small or ginormous. Any suggestions?

10. I just discovered Hobby Lobby on Saturday and now I wish I could win a shopping spree there or something. That place is amazingly dangerous.

11. I thought I had lost my temple recomend but today my cat Hemi had it in his mouth in his little hiding place under our bed. I am 99.9% sure he stole it out of the basket it was in under our night stand. The little stink.

MOVING AGAIN! i couldn't do it even if it is just across town. . .but I am glad that it is close to where Marcus will work. I am glad that you are liking where you live. Love you!

BIGGEST LOOSER WAHOO!!! I love Tuesday's when that is on!

And Hobby Lobby is my ALL TIME FAV craft store. They have one in Utah up in Daybreak that I go to when I have time. Logan also has one!

When Jen and I lived in ILLINOIS we became addicts! I need a shopping spree there too! Let me know if you find one!

Much love to y'all in TEXAS!

I too am excited for Biggest Loser, House, and the Office! I also LOVE Hobby Lobby! I'm sad that you've had to go this long without having that great thing in your life! ;) Have fun moving, of course, right after you finish unpacking!!

That's great that you'll be moving closer to where Marcus works. Saving even more money and time!

I MISS Hobby Lobby! We have a few back home in Kansas......Robert's just doesn't compare. And that's funny about Wal-mart!! It's the hangout, huh? It is texas! =D

I think your family picture (too cute, by the way) is a good size. Sidebar pics are tricky.

We just moved down the street. I'm never moving again. I think i'll die here. I hate it!
