Live life to it's fullest!

Jimmy got a new job, and now works at Mark Miller Toyota, as their marketing, graphic designer! He loves his new job, and I do too! I love seeing him so happy, and doing what he loves and does best! :) He has a later schedule than he had before, and unlike me, where I would take advantage of that time in the morning to sleep, he wakes up and exercises before work each day. He makes me want to do better, and make better use of my time. He has such energy and drive to do what he wants in life.

I will be starting a new position at my work beginning of December, and I am stoked! I will be doing something completely different than I what I have been doing for the last few years. Its going to be an awesome new challenge, but also release of so much stress. What I need now, is a fresh start. Im looking forward to change, which is not what you would normally hear me say about change. I hope I can take this opportunity to not only learn more at work, and broaden my knowledge, but to learn more about me, to become better all around, emotionally, physically, and spiritually. I want to learn from my mistakes in the past, and let myself grow. I hope I can take Jimmy's example, and find the energy I need to do the things I love. I want to look back and say I lived life to it's fullest!

Lexi's Bridal Shower & Party

Lexi's wedding went pretty well considering it was the first wedding we had ever put together. I dont have all pics I want to show, so here are a few from her shower my mom and I threw for her, and the bachelorette party I put together for her. I will post pics and hopefully video later of her special day.

Staycation

I have been a slacker on blogging! So let me try and update the last few months.
Jimmy and I went on a staycation, aka vacation at home. We took a week off of work together,and did things around here that we normally dont do,as well as staying home and being lazy, and mostly eating out to lots of places. We went to the Aquarium, Zoo, Drives up canyons, Rodizio Grill, new place called Scaddys, and our favorite, Pazzo Vito Deli. Jimmy ate some different things at Rodizio Grill, like Quail Egg, and Chicken Heart. I was just great with my turkey wrapped in bacon, MMMM. My favorite part was the Aquarium, I pet a sting ray, saw penguins and the octopus get fed, and saw a HUGE Anaconda, and cute small seahorses! I also saw the fun Elephant family at the Zoo, and a male Turtle trying to climb on top of the female Turtle, wink wink. haha. Here are some pics of what we saw at the Aquarium and the Zoo.

Wedding Fever

So I know my next post should be about my fun times playing video games with Jimmy, but I have slacked. I am a slacker. But we have made plans to make one night a week, be our stay at home date night, and play some video games. :)

So my sister is getting married! I am so so excited for her and Shawn. Ever since they have set their date, My mom, Lexi, and I have been having crazy fun planning and getting things ready for it. She will be a beautiful bride. :) More blogging on our adventures to come!

Plus, i need a break from all this wedding stuff. But here is a pic of my handsome man in a tux at our friends Shawn and Viola's wedding :)

Couch Potato

I changed my background to go with this post. I needed a change, and thought, why not go with a theme? haha. Plus this blog isn't just about what I like, its about what James and I like :)
So I've decided I need to start doing more of things I love to do, and doing things James loves to do. Instead of the boring, wake up, go to work, go home, get in pj's, eat junk food, watch tv and fall asleep on the couch. Doing this is enjoyable, but not every day.
Blogging is something I love to do, and so Im going to try and blog about all the fun things I am going to start doing with my time, instead of being a couch potato.
First one is, play more video games. I know you are thinking, wasn't the point to get off the couch? But when I play video games, I get into it, and I get a good sweat going and my heart is pumping! haha. I'm a very competitive player. Video games is one of the things that brought James and I together, and I miss doing that. Even though he is so much better at it then I am, and can laugh at me at times, I still love it :)
I am excited to start enjoying more things in life, and not being a couch potato. And most of all, excited to spend it with my best friend!
