keys

Jordan is out of town a lot recently. He went to Dallas and Seattle last weekend, then Chicago last week, and now he is in Boston and DC! He is interviewing with some really great companies so we will most likely be moving to one of those places pretty soon... well, not Dallas or Seattle, but let's not talk about that. He did, on the other hand, get some great news yesterday! He was offered the job in Chicago doing internal consulting for Sears. That is one of his top choices all along so that is REALLY exciting!!
Tonight I went over to my friend from school, Katie's house for Sunday dinner so I wouldn't have to be alone. Her family lives in Orem so there was a big group with lots of people and lots of cute kids! I can't wait to have lots of nieces and nephews (okay, and my own kids...) running around so crazy! It was really fun and Katie's family was so sweet and nice to me!

This is Katie... just a couple months ago, but both of us look soooo different now! Oh, hair school!

When I went to leave, my keys were not where I had put them. All the rest of her family were gone at this point except the ones that live there. They all looked around and tried to find them for a while before Katie called the two families that had already left with their kids. I had to find them because my garage opener (that was inside my car) is the only way I have to get into my house and the spare key is back East with Jordan! Eventually it came out that one little girl out the keys in her cousins purse, because, naturally, that's where keys go! So her sister drove up form Spanish and we met in Provo and got my keys, then went back to Orem to get my car, then to Springville to go home! I felt so bad that

We are here!!

Just postin got say we are still alive and kicking! Jordan went to Dallas and Seattle for job interviews with Capital One and with Delliot. They fly him out there, pay for his cabs, his hotels (one was over $250 a night!) and food! He is going to Chicago (Sears), DC (Bates White) and Boston (Analysis Group) in the next week! I wish I could go! But alas, I am at school ALWAYS! But I am so happy to say that night school is really not as bad as I thought it was going to be! The people at night school are so nice and everyone talks to each other because the school is so small at night! It is tiring being there that long, but night school is so great and so different from day school so it changes it up. I am really enjoying to night school and getting through the end of my schooling a little faster!!

So sick

My throat feels like I swallowed thumb tacks.
Sinuses may explode.
Sneezing/coughing constantly.
Joints ache so badly.

I can't miss school!
I need to graduate.
Just stay away from me so you will not be infected.

How did my house change 21 degrees in four days??
86-65 degrees is ridiculous!
It was so hot up in this joint and now...brrrr!
Where are you fall?? I guess we are just moving on to winter judging by the SNOW covering the mountians past the Y! Hello boots and jackets!

Conference!

My little sister, McCall goes to BYU Idaho.
My b.i.l, Parker also goes to BYU Idaho.
BYU Idaho is four(ish) hours away so they decided to bring a couple friends and come down to stay with us for conference weekend! We are so fortunate to live in a big house with plenty of rooms for people to stay! They may not be the best beds or the most furnished rooms, but, hey, beggars can't be choosers!!They came with us to the BYU football game on Friday! We beat Utah State within the last minute of the game!! We all stormed the field!! We were able to see our friend Devin Mahina who is on the team but is not playing this year because he broke his neck while playing preseason!! After we had pizza and soda back at our house.
Saturday we watched conference at home and ate a big breakfast. When the boys went to Priesthood Session, we went to Target to run some errands and then we met the boys at Olive Garden! They were so excited to the endless pasta bowls! Jordan and Parker each had 6 bowls!! It was a Christmas miracle! We had a not so delightful server named Blaine. He was a treat!
Sunday they all went up to Salt Lake for conference because their ride was leaving from there. We decided not to go because Jordan had a lot of prepping to do for some job resumes and cover letters. We loved the visit and hope to see them again soon!!

heart wrenching

http://13pavements.blogspot.com/
The little girl on this blog breaks my heart. I worked with her sweet aunt Katie. Can you imagine your little girl having cancer and taking her to get her eye removed hoping that it saves her life? So sad! Help them out if you can!!
