One Night

So I would recommend just listening to the song. there is one badish part, BUT I'm posting it because well I love this song. It is in my head all the time now!

Anyways, I wanted to let you all know how everything is going (Cause I know your just Dying to know)
All that Mitch and I have been doing is working. When we are not at our actual jobs we are doing some sort of house work. But we do have a fun date planned for this Saturday.
We are going to:Nickel Mania 
We had a yard sale in Arizona before we moved to Utah and we still have a lot of coin left so that should be fun.
Ill try to post pictures. 
I know its short but hey I did it!
 More to come on Sunday!
Have fun with this song in your head!
HAHAHAHAHAHA

The Roles Have Changed...

                 I know it's been a while but at least I'm posting! I'm going to play around with the settings that I see when I'm typing my posts, mostly the schedule one. But for now here is whats been going on.

           Last week was Art City Days here in Springville. It was fun and super cute. There was a little carnival right down the street (and right next to my work). There were fun events that were going on. I only went to two, the Fireman's breakfast and the parade. I was actually in the parade with my work and that was fun. Now to think of it last Saturday was a lot of fun in general. After the parade I went to the farmers market with my friend Samantha for awhile but we didn't find any produce yet. I still went back with Mitch later and we got some really good honey, fresh tortillas, and some amazing salsa (that lasted only one day). After that we went home for a bit and then went to the reservoir with Samantha and her family. I enjoyed it.

           Anywho, your probably wondering what the title of this post means. It means I am the bread winner of our house. Yep, Mitch isn't working right now because he is waiting to start a new job. He got a new job at Macy's in the HR department. I just hope that he has better hours now. I like having him around the house though. He has done so much. Lets see Tuesday he did the dishes and finished the laundry. Yesterday he took out all the ugly in front of our house and in our storage closet. He also redid our living room. Today I'm hoping he will do the bathrooms and fold the laundry, that would be great. Let me make one thing clear though, I'm not just sitting around doing nothing, I actually have been working, like my real job. 

            Since I mentioned it, I need some advice. Like I said Mitch got rid of the ugly in front of our house and now we need to plant some things in front. Nothing to big but pretty. We already have Spanish Lavender:
I was thinking of things like daisies:
Or some creeping babys breath:
Let me know of any other good Perennials that you guys know of! See you next Post!

Our FHE activity

So going completely against my goal Mitch and I went to get ice cream at Cold Stone! Here is what we got
                                

I got Founders favorite and Mitch got Oreo overload. Don't know how we are going to tie this in with a spiritual thought. We figure it out!

Exciting...not really.

             I wasn't sure what to title this post. I'm thinking of just doing the date of when I post rather than an actual title. Please comment on what you think would be best.

             I am enjoying life. I felt as though I had to say that. there is so much I am thankful for. I would list it for you but I'm afraid that would take FOREVER! I'm just happy, plain and simple.

            Mitch is helping our maintenance man put in our new swamp cooler right now so I decided to take some time to let everyone know my new goals. I know its the middle of the year and I finally have new goals but who cares. So I'm going to just do a list of them and explain what I want to do and why. Lets start shall we?


  1. I think the most obvious one that EVERYONE IN THE WORLD has is to lose weight. I don't want .to look sickly skinny but I do want to be in good shape, who doesn't right? I found out a couple months ago that I have PCOS (poly-cystic ovarian syndrome)  which, of you didn't know, is just when your hormones are all out of wack. It makes it hard to lose weight. How do I plan to get fit? I have work out videos at home that I will do, I'll go for walks, I'm on this health challenge with my friend Samantha. I hope that those will help me stay motivated. I might need your help, by that I mean if I don't post anything about this goal in like three weeks say something!
  2. My next goal is kind of bad in the sense that I am not good at it at all! It is to not get distracted when I am doing my chores. I have a feeling that this goal is going to be the toughest one because one I get distracted WAY to easy and two I am such a lazy person (just ask my mom). But I really want my house to look good and I do want to be productive. I need to make a cute chore list for Mitch and myself so we can check what has been done each month. Any ideas?
  3. This one is kind of cheesy but I DON"T CARE! I want to make my husband feel like he is the best thing ever every day. It might be hard too but by far this will be the easiest goal I have.
  4. My last two are going to be combined. I want to say my prayers and read my scriptures every day. I know it is what I should be doing but because I didn't grow up doing it, it's hard. I don't have the habit yet. I will get there and so will Mitch!
So that's it for today. Please comment on anything you want me to post about. I know I said I have A lot on my mind and I do but on a day like today I completely forget EVERYTHING! If you read this a lot and you have a blog too follow me and I will follow you!

New Life

              I know I keep restarting my blog over and over again but I feel like this is for real now. By saying that I mean that i actually have stuff to talk about, not that I didn't have anything before. Its different now. I am doing different things, living in a different state, and just have different goals in general.

              Last year I was a stay at home wife, going to school and  writing  my blog about cleaning a cooking. I had worked for the City of Mesa part time as a swim coach and lifeguard up until November. Mitch and I had hardly any worries. It all changed in December.
             
              We are still happily married and in the lovely, blissful honeymoon phase even though its been over a year. (I still can't believe it has been a whole year). But we have found  that the dependence we have on one another has grown substantially. We moved to Springville, UT in December last year to a harsh reality that we do not have an easy life like we did in Gilbert. First off we were told that we moved during the worst winter UT has seen for a while. I felt like the snow was never going to end. Next thing we didn't know was going to be so difficult was finding a job. We both have to work because we have more bills then we expected. I felt so bad for my Mitchie when he would come home after an interview and he would have no luck. He did find one though, he now works for Vivint,  a home security company. I found a job shortly after as a teller at a bank. The very last thing we never had problems with before was having time to spend together. During school Mitch would be gone from 7 am until about 12 pm than he would be off to work at 1:45 pm, I wouldn't leave the house for work until 1 pm and then I wouldn't see my amazing husband until 10 pm most nights and by that time i would be so tired we would just go straight to bed and then start all over again the next day.

          I feel like we have it figured out now, how to deal with the unexpected things. I will post again! No fear there is so much on my mind that I cannot keep in anymore!
