Weekend in Provo

Image
So this last weekend was the first weekend that Correy and I have spent our married life away from each other. He went hunting with some friends and since I didnt want to be home alone I thought that it was the perfect day to go down to Provo to see my best friend every. This was also my first time driving a distance by myself. The drive went smoothly and I was cutting time and thought that I would be there in no time. And as soon as I got 10 miles out of town I hit the construction and so the last ten miles of my trip took me 40 minutes to drive. But finally I got there. And I got IN N OUT, yum something I have been craving and so excited to get. Then later that night I went to Provo Canyon with Heather and some friend, and then some random people where we started a bonfire and made smores. Then around 12:30 a popo showed up and told us that the park closed 3 hours ago, when really it closed at 11. So we had to put out the fire when we had no water . . . lets just say that we found a ...

Finally getting around to updating everything

Image
So much has been going on and my time has been spent doing so much. So we are all moved in, well sort of, as much as we can right now. The bedroom is all unpacked and we have made one of the bedrooms into an office with our computers and printer and stuff. But also it has become out storage room with a bunch of our boxes, mainly kitchen stuff and memorabilia and craft things. Our kitchen consists of a fridge, microwave, conventional oven, small counter space and a bunch of boxes. Right now the search is on for cheap kitchen cabinets that we can find second hand. And then a dishwasher and a oven. The bathroom was the first thing we set up, with a new sink and counter space, which is great because our washer and dryer is right there and it makes folding clothes so much easier. See how beautiful. And under the counter where there is nothing in the picture I have put a basket for all of our cleaning supplies. We bought a greenish color of paint to paint the bathroom area, but first we hav...

Week with the Family (August 3-7)

Week with the Family (August 3rd to 7th) So life has been hectic and not having internet at our apartment has made it hard to keep up with blogging. But not I will have internet all the time, YIPPEE!!!! Well at the beginning of the month I had my family come and visit. My mom and little brother, Parker came up on Tuesday afternoon after dropping my sister off at EFY in Provo. When they got here, Correy and I took them out to Chinese for lunch, and then Correy went back to work as we went to the Potato Museum. Which was way fun, I love it there, it is my favorite Museum ever. Then we came home and kind of just relaxed, Parker played the Xbox which he loved. And then when we were getting a little bored we went out and fed the horses. Which they got a kick out of because in California you dont normally have horses in your backyard. Then Wednesday we had a big day. We drove into Idaho Falls for the day. We started off with going to the zoo which I had never been to. I...

Time to Get in Shape

So Correy and I have decided to start eating healthier, with less fast food and to exercise more. We both have bought new running shoes and are trying to go on nightly walks of at least a mile. Although it has turned into every other day instead because something or other always seems to come up. We try to go right after dinner and then we walk till it gets too dark to walk. So how far we walk depends on what time Correy gets home from work. It is really nice, because we take the dogs and we get to have family time without all the distractions you have at home. And as far aseating better, we have been the past few days and plan on keeping it up, although this next week could be hard because we are going to be out of town and then my mom and little brother are going to be intown.

To Move or not to Move is the Question

Image
So Correy and I have been looking more and more into moving and have finally decided that it is going to happen. It is just a matter of when and where. When have really been looking into two different areas, Rock Springs, Wyoming and St George, Utah. When we were first discussing where we would want to move I was leaning towards Wyoming, and now the more research that I do, I think that I really want to move to St George. In St George, Correy would be able to continue doing HVAC work and could still possibly open his own branch of High Tech Comfort in a few years. Also, there are more housing options, in our price range, that we could bring our puppies. We are hoping to rent a two bedroom house, that has a yard for the dogs. I have seen a few that I like a lot. We really want a two bedroom because if we have family come and visit we would like to be able to accommodate them instead of having them stay in a hotel. Also I think it would be nice to make it into a office too. Because we no...

I am ready for life to slow down

So as the semester drags on I get more and more stressed out about grades and finals and basically everything in between. Now I only have two weeks left so I am coming to the home stretch. And after all my finals are over we have the Romrell Family Camp Out. I am way excited to be able to see my niece Presley, she is so gosh darn cute. And then the next weekend I have my mom and baby brother coming up to visit me so I am sure it will prove to be a really hectic week. But today, it's Correy and my three month anniversary, yes we are acting like high schoolers and celebrating the months. For our anniversary I got him a Spud Light Year, because if you know us we love potato heads and plan on collecting as many as possible. And then tonight we are attending a Date Night Glow in the Dark Ropes course at BYUI, and super excited about it but at the same time we aren't sure what to expect. But I will just have to blog about that later. Correy and I are also exploring the options of mov...

What an Exciting Week we have Ahead of Us

So the past few weeks have been just hectic with school, work and everything else. The internet has been "not" working for the past few weeks. I just think that the guy up stairs is lying to us. And well that creates a major problem for me, I am taking three classes online so internet is an essential. So we have been camping out at Correy's parents house. I miss sleeping in my own bed. But last weekend we went out to Rock Springs, Wyoming for my niece's first birthday. She is just the cutest thing ever.We had such a good time seeing them, I wish we lived closer and could see them more. It made me really want to move there. We even went to the "races", which was way fun I have never watched a car race. And yesterday I was trying to convince Correy that we should buy these front row tickets to Brian Regan, because I know how much Correy likes him. And he tried to tell me that he didnt really want to go and basically wanted me to drop it but I wouldnt. And so h...
