Updates!!!

So, I am constantly telling all of you bloggers, "time to update," You need to blog more," "tell me More about your life," Etc, Etc, Etc. and here I am now realizing how updating can sometimes become impossible! I LOVE blogging, but with a full time job, a part time job, and all the fun stuff in between, I very rarely have time to sit down and blog. So, I do apologize! Hopefully I will be able to blog more often as soon as i get this very long post out of the way! I have been checking all the blogs, just haven't updated mine. Seems like everybody has had a good summer so far! If the rain would go away, I think it would be better! But hey, what are ya going to do!
So, since I last blogged we have had a bunch of fun stuff go on! Here ya go! Sorry, no pics. Just imagine everything k!

Christian and I got an elliptical with our tax return money. It took awhile to pick it out since it is a pretty hefty investment we wanted to make sure a pick a good one! So, we bought the same one my mom has. It is a Nordic Track 800. Very cool! Very smooth! and some days it kicks my butt!!! We have both been wanting to lose weight for awhile now. Since we don't have time to have a full workout and don't EVER want to pay to go to the gym, this was the perfect solution. If we come home from work and want to watch some tv, we jump on the elliptical, if we have a "show" to watch we jump on the elliptical while we watch it, if we are bored we jump on the elliptical. I will NEVER regret buying it instead of a gym pass! We can work out whenever we want, don't have to drive somewhere to do it, and can still watch the shows we want or listen to the music we want! If you are wanting to lose weight this is how to do it! (yes, I know i could be in a commercial! maybe after i lose the weight!)

Pampered Chef is still going strong. I am still loving it! I have had 4 shows so far and they have all turned out great! I am still learning, but I really am having fun! I am really looking forward to doing this as a stay at home mom and know I can make good money while I have a blast! I can't wait! It is crazy how easy it all is. Getting sales, getting bookings, it all falls into place you really don't even have to try! I LOVE it! A HUGE thank you goes out to Jamie, my sister for getting me started! (and yes, I realize I could do a commercial about this as well!)

We have also had a GREAT time hanging out with friends and family!!! We have had a bunch or dinner dates, game nights, poker nights, and girls nights! Each of them fun!

We went out with Mandy and Troy to Red Robin for some excellent food and LOTS of laughter! then back to their house for the movie "Bedtime Stories."

We hung out with Meghann and her boys, Carter and Gunner a couple times going to Chick fila, Training Table, and playing the Wii. Also, had a great barbecue with her whole family! Got to meet her grandparents, who were super nice and funny! We LOVE playing at Meghann's house! I LOVE that her kids know us now so we can have fun! they are no longer shy! And I love that Meghann can't put Gunner to bed anymore without him saying "Come on Maxxie!"

I have been spending a bunch of time with my friends from work! Meghann, Ashlee, Kaycee, and I have gone out a bunch! We went shopping and to dinner at, where else, Training Table. We were getting Meghann a cute new outfit for her Divorce Party! That's right it is final and we HAD to celebrate! So, a bunch of us from work, plus Meghann's friends went to Hoppers one night to celebrate! it was great fun! Her friend even had a cake made for her that said Happy divorce! it was awesome! And Meghann looked HOTT in her new outfit! We all had a ton of fun!
We have also been getting together for movie nights, and game nights with our friends form work! We went to see The proposal as a girl's night and it was hilarious! Then we went to Winger's and it was very tasty!

And the most recent event, We went to Layton to spend time with my mom who had just had surgery. We had a barbecue with her, Jeff, Cody, Jamie, Jon, and their kids. It was great to see them! After dinner we played In a pickle! a super fun game!!! The next day we had plans to go to Lagoon with Christian's family. Christian had to work in the morning so I took my mom to the mall so she could get out of the house. It was great to spend time with her! then at 12:30 I met Christian at Lagoon. We had SO much fun!!! Christian's family all went for Dayton's birthday! We hadn't been there for about 6 years so it was great to go! Especially with his family! We all had a great time! I was shocked at the rides Christian went on. He is normally afraid, but he went on the White roller coaster, the spider, the bat, and the rocket!!! It was awesome! I am a HUGE thrill seeker and was super excited about Wicked! The line was long, but I went on it twice! It was great to have his sister's family there to go on the "scary" rides with me! We had an excellent time and can't wait to go again!

Well, that is my May and June all wrapped up! Sorry there weren't any pics! Hopefully I will be able to jump back on the bloggin train! In July we have some fun stuff planned! A cabin trip with friends from work, sleepover/camp out on the 24th of July parade route, Harry Potter, camping trip, boating trip, and I'm sure a bunch of game nights and girl nights will be thrown in the mix!

Hope you are all having an excellent summer so far!
