Well, I finally did it! I found a great event job that pays more than my current job! And not only is it a great event job working with a company that is all about one of my favorite hobbies, but I will get to do a ton of traveling all over the US, Canada, New Zealand and Australia! Talk about a good break! I am sad to be leaving Redirect because I really like all of my coworkers and I've been here a while, but it was sort of a no-brainer... Anyway, I start the first of July, so feel free to celebrate on my behalf. ;)
In other news, I have become a guardian for the summer. My little 16 year old sister got in trouble and got sent up here to live with Amber and me as punishment. haha! We are having a good time with her, but it has been pretty hard. I'm not used to being responsible for someone else, especially not someone that isn't very trustworthy, doesn't have their own means of transportation or any money. It should turn out to be a fun summer. At least I will have some sort of perparation for motherhood. So, basically I spend all of my time either with Rob or my sisters just hanging out and enjoying the warm weather. I really hope winter never comes again...

wow!
okay, so I am pretty far behind on this thing... it has been a crazy month. I got really really bad strep throat and was out for 3 days. it was the WORST sick I had been in like, 10 years! I had to get a penicillin shot in my butt! that hurt. so, I got better, and got to work at the wedding that weekend, which was amazing!! Jacque is an amazing wedding planner, and Red Butte Gardens is beautiful! but then my strep came back the next day. I could not be sick since we were leaving for Seattle to see the baby in a few days, so I got some more penicillin... that week we had my cousin's wedding and then we went to Pirates 3 that night, then left for Seattle at 5 AM the next morning. we took my car and all of us crammed in there: Dad, me, Amber, Brett and Rachel. we drove 13 hours that day, and despite my lack of sleep, we had a pretty good time. my dad wouldn't let me drive, but also wouldn't let me sleep, so we found fun things to do to entertain us.
Seattle is the most beautiful place! I have always known I would love it, and I have always wanted to live there, but, WOW! Stacy, Wayne and Nynaeve have a beautiful home, and we had a great time the frist night just holding the baby and hanging out. Nyanaeve is beautiful! and so perfect! I never wanted to let her go. its still so wierd that Stacy has a baby. anyway, we had a barbecue and had a great time. the next morning we got up and took family pictures in their yard. aren't we a hot bunch?! 
and then we headed to Seattle where we went to Pike Market Place and watched them throw fish, ate some samples of smoked salmon, checked out all the fresh produce and flowers, people-watched, bought some tshirts, and then headed to the waterfront. Seattle is amazing! we had a great time downtown. we then drove out to a Dick's Burgers and had some lunch before we headed back to the house for a rest. after letting Nynaeve and Grandpa rest for a little while we headed to the mall for a little shopping and then out to dinner at a little diner in Renton. I really could not get enough of the baby.... I'm sure you can see why!
so, the next morning we went out for breakfast, packed up and then headed for Boise. we got there around 7:30 and had dinner with my uncle Perry and his wife Kody and then stayed there that night. it was good to see them. it has been a really long time. the next morning my cousin Michelle came over with her kids, who I'm not sure we had ever met. they were adorable and we had a fun time with them. and then we headed back for Utah. we got to my house around 5 PM, and I really thought I was going to kill someone the last few hours in the car. next time, I am FLYING!! :) we still all had a great time with eachother, but being crammed up for that long can be pretty freakin annoying! ...Rachel stayed with us that night, we went out to dinner and then watched the Jazz get their trash kicked before heading to bead. we were exhausted. anyway, so now its back to normal. just working, being really tired, going to more wedding receptions, and trying to make things work with Rob. we seem to be going through a rough patch. I sort of think its just him though, and I need to be patient and understanding. either way, this week has been emotionally exhausting and I cannot wait to sleep this weekend! :)
