Happy Birthday to ME!

Last Saturday was my 25th birthday!! I'm soooo old :) We decided to head down to visit Mikey's parents down in Vancouver for the weekend. They just returned from Africa last week, they had been down there for about a month doing dental work, they had a blast so we wanted to hear all the details. Joann also brought back a bunch of souvenirs! She let us pick whatever we wanted and I think I took a little too much, sorry! :) While we were down there Mikey thought it would be a great time to buy a new TV! We sold our other one and made about $250 on it, and down in Portland there is no sales tax. He is like a little kid when he goes into electronic stores, its hilarious! We got a HUGE TV, he'll be happy for about a month then want a bigger one :) We also went out to Olive Garden for my birthday with Steve and Joann, Sarah and Brian, and Steve Kulin and Heather (good family friends) Sarah being the sneaky sister in law that she is told our waitress it was my birthday so they sang to me! I dont know why but I get so embarrassed when stuff like that happens, but it was fun! We had a great time, it always seems to fly right on by! We left on monday in the pouring rain, it rained the whole drive home but Mikey is such a good driver I wasn't too scared.
You're all probably wondering what that PBI/Gordon picture is? Well...we have some great news hopefully! Mikey interviewed for a job with them a couple weeks ago and they called him back yesterday to fly him back to Kansas City, where their headquarters is, and they will most likely offer him the job! No we wouldn't be moving to Kansas City (Thank heaven) we are both feeling really good about St. George!!!!!!! YAY!! He flies back there on March 11th and will meet with them on the 12th, so we'll let everybody know. Keep us in your prayers! He would be a manufacturer rep for New Mexico, Arizona, Nevada, California, and HAWAII!!! I am so excited! I finally will get to go a couple times!
Oh I finally got a job, its not the best in the world, but its a job. I'm cleaning houses, its a great workout and really difficult but I really need to get back into shape, so its all good. I started last week and am really getting the hang of it. I also interviewed for a job at an optical company which I would absolutely love! I will find out this week if I get a 2nd interview! Keep me in your prayers too :)

I sat near one of my hero's




On my flight home from New Orleans I had a lay-over in Denver. I was just about to get on and looked over and saw Bob Knight. I have always liked him and was hoping I was going to be able to sit next to him. I wasn't right next to him but he was one row back and on the other side of the plane. I didn't get a picture with him after we got off the flight. I did get a picture while I was waiting though while he wasn't looking. I actually took this picture while I was talking on my phone with my phone camera. I should be an undercover spy or something.

Last 3 weeks!!

So the last 3 weeks have been CRAZY!! Mikey was so busy with conferences around Washington, in Sunriver Oregon for a week and New Orleans for another week! So the last week we decided it would be best for me to head down to Utah to be with my family.
The first 2 weeks of Mikey's trip were all business, the week in New Orleans was all golf :) He got to play 3 great courses down there, in the freezing cold! While I was in Utah we went to Jeremy's house for a Super Bowl party, I was the only one cheering for the Steelers!! Heck ya! They were all mad at me :) hehe Monday Mallory and I went shopping! I loved it! got some way cute jeans and shirts for way cheap! It was very needed girl time! While I was there I decided I needed a change of scenery, the only way I knew how to do that was to color my hair...haha! so I did it myself and it turned out really good! I went really dark brown, almost black! I'll have to take some pics and post them soon. I had a great relaxing time down in Utah. I think I played Candy Land about 5 million times with Hunter and Tanner but I never got sick of it :) I have also started to do Yoga again to help me relax and not be so anxious, well I guess Hunter and Tanner needed it as well, they loved to watch me do it and Tanner even did it for a little bit, they are so stinkin cute! Tanner loves to randomly pretend there are monsters after us and will start growling at some random spot, hilarious! I miss those kids sooo much! but hopefully soon we will have some cute little kids of our own!
We both left for home on Friday, on Mikey's way home his hero was on his flight...Bob Knight! He was texting me while he could and was getting so nervous! He was planning on asking him for a picture after they landed but he couldnt catch up to him :( He did sneakily get a picture of just him from his phone, he will post that pic when he gets a chance.
And just so everybody knows its my birthday on the 21st! :) HAHA!!
