i wish i had pictures...

I just got back into town yesterday after taking off on Saturday at about noon (yes, it was my birthday). We had intended to go down to St George to hit up the outlet mall, go swimming, and just generally enjoy it being warm there. A couple hours down the road we start talking about going to Vegas instead, good idea?! I have an even BETTER one..why don't we just keep on going today until we get to the beach in california!!?? So we did. It was the most random road trip ever, and it was so filled with funny things and such a great time with Vicki and Bobbi. I love those girls and I will miss them dearly, so this road trip to have for the memory bank is just great. Perhaps pictures will come later. But perhaps the pictures and me telling you would not do the trip justice. Maybe you had to be there! Either way it was so much fun and even though sleep was rare and driving was plentiful it was the best birthday ever!!

BIG NEWS

pay attention to this one!! I got offered a job in Texas today..and I took it!! So..that means that I will be leaving Utah within the next couple of weeks! I have nothing against Utah, and I love all of you that are here with me, but my life has taken an unexpected turn and this job was too good to pass up, when considering that I have been praying for awhile about what I needed to do and where I needed to go. It is an amazing opportunity that will bring me closer to my dear family and those babies that are being born by the minute (kidding)! Not to mention give me a chance to see that guy that has my heart!! I am very excited!!! So officially I will start my new job in Texas on April 5th..so about 3 weeks from now..so I better go get started packing....this will take awhile!!

when sleep eludes...

I blog. I stalk everyone's facebook/blog. I read books. It is the blogging that I am here about. It has been neglected lately, and not because I lack the things to fill the blog, simply because I have been spending my time otherwise engaged. I love my life. I am dating an amazing, funny, caring guy who will in fact stay up all night talking to me on the phone because I am a night person and he knows I don't want him to go. He will also stay up all night to text me the minute I get off work (how did he know that I had just had one of the worst nights EVER?), basically it was adorable and it made me so happy. He is great. He was an unexpected addition to my life, not that I am complaining in ANY way. I welcome the changes that have come to my life since he has entered it (or re-entered...) Just so we are all clear, in case the message was lost in translation. I am in love. (why yes, he HAS bewitched me, body and soul.. :) ) Every day we take a new step and I am learning how to be in a relationship, and while I am not perfect at it, we are taking these steps together. I couldn't be happier (unless of course, we lived in the same state...). That's enough gushing for one blog I should think. :)
