So I sit here and write today about the one to the biggest decisions we will have to make in our intiere lives . Adam is starting to interview for jobs. Yikes! He has and offer from Cummins ( Columbus Indiana) and General Mills ( Minneapolis Minnesota). And he still has more interviews, they are in California, Texas,and somewhere we don't even know of yet. Its so crazy to think this little farm girl from Lake Shore Utah could end up out in there in the world. I feel like Utah is kinda its own little country . Part of me is really excited but part the of me is so stressed and sad about leaving my family and friends behind. I know that I will find nice people and members of the church that will become my new friends. But I am still apprehensive. Adam getting a job is a really great thing but its going to change our lives. What ever job/place we choose is going to be where we buy a house, start a family, meet new people and just be. I know that for the next 6 months while Adam is still in school I am really going to saver every thing about still being in Utah, near family and things that are familiar. I know that what ever happens and where ever we go it will be ok. I hope Adam and I grow even closer together as we go through this big transition. I feel so blessed because we have so much technology. I will always be able to pick up the phone or hop on a plain and keep in touch with everyone here. I'm so glad that I didn't have to be a pioneer. They had to leave everything knowing they' ed probably never see it again. I also feel so thankful and blessed because I have so many wonderful people in my life. My husband is so freakin amazing! I love him so much and I couldn't live with out him. My family is so special and wonderful and they love me even if I am a little weird. I have the best friends anyone could ask for too. I love all of you guys! Thanks for being you and thanks for listening to me ramble and vent!

While we where out in Indiana we also went out with a relater. We loved the city of Columbus because it took like 15 min to get out into the country. I was so beautiful with all the fall colors and they had so many trees. I really could see us living out there. We found this amazing house on line before we went out there. I never expected that we would ever be able to go in it. but the relater got us and appointment and away we went. It was like my dream home. maybe some day we could have one like it. ;)

Adam and I had the opportunity to go to Columbus Indiana for the weekend! It was so fun to go out and explore somewhere new. We went out because Adam got an offer from Cummins. Cummins flew us out there to see if we liked to city and the job. We haven't excepted Cummins yet and we actually got an offer from General mills yesterday. GM is in Minnesota so we could end up there too. Indiana was so amazing! We stayed at a place called hotel Indigo. It was like Ikea x 10!!! It was really cool and the city of Columbus was great because they had a ton of artsy buildings. Cummins is such a big part of the town so that they made a deal with the city and said if they wanted to build a new something like a library or school Cummins would pay architect fees. So the city would pay for the building and Cummins would pay the architect fees and now they have some really unique structures. P.S. Yes in the above picture Adam its trying to kiss his own butt! I ask the man to pose and this it what I get........ I sure the that man, even if he is a nerd.

Lacy and I went for one last swim at the Spanish Fork Reservoir! We kept trying to jump when the camera took the picture, Obviously it didn't work too well. We are kinda special. It was nice to get out one more time before it got cold. I sure love my lil Lacy bug.

We went to Idaho falls a few weeks ago, it was

our last hooo haaa before school started. These guys are all getting their MBAs together. Cory& Erin, Adam & I, Cody & Alicia , Rustin & Nikki. It's so great to have good friends! It was such nice water at Ririe reservoir too. Adam and I learned how to wake surf, it was kinda hard! But now we are 3 wks into school and reality has set in. We all just keep counting the months and days 'til April! Then we will be rich!!!! jk

The craziest thing happened last Wednesday. I went to work like normal to the plasma center, it had been raining all day, but I didn't think much of it. A couple of hours into my shift, an alert came over the radio warning us to take shelter because a tornado had been spotted nearby. There were over 70 patients that had to be unhooked so they could take shelter and get away from the windows. We listened to the radio for the next couple of hours and the warnings kept being extended as more tornadoes were spotted. Finally after waiting and waiting, it was decided that we would close the office. It was the craziest day. I am glad that I didn't get blown away!

We Are home! I am so happy to be back in Utah! We had a rough start getting home. As we loaded the truck with all of our stuff we got drenched! It rained cats and dogs all day and we were soaked to the bone; there wasnt much we could do about it because all of our dry clothes were packed away. We saw a really cool rainbow and I wish I could have fit it in a pic but it was way too big. The sunset it so weird back east. It is so flat the sunset lasts forever and the sun looks like it tuches the ground. Neither of us had sunglasses and we both got sunburned eyes. Adam found some riding glasses but they didnt work so well. At least they look cute on him. lol! We drove 20 hours and never want to drive that far again. Top 5 things I am thankful for:

1- I dont have to pay a dollar every time I want to wash

2- I have a dishwasher

3- I have my own bed that isn't a foam pad

4- I have matching dishes

5- I have my own tv so I don't have to watch baseball anymore!!!

Yeehaw! We have less then 3 weeks tell we come home! I cant wait to see everyone. Its really going to be great to wash clothes when ever I want and not have to pay! Ill have my own dishes and my own bed, my own house!! And best of all Ill be able to see my family and friends!!! ( o yeah the pics are from the University of MN Campos)

Mom , Dad and Wyatt came for a little visit this last weekend. It was so fun, we went to the Mall of America, Stillwater (antique shopping), the Zoo, toured a steel mill ,to Lake Calhoun, Lake Silvia,to church, farm land watching , played cards and out to eat a lot! I gained 4lbs because we had such yummy food. Dad complemented the owner of a Italian place we went to and they gave us free appetizers, ice cream, and wine! We gave the wine to Dads Steel friend. At Stillwater Mom Spent 2 hours in one antique store. Wow that's a long time, I thinks she would have stayed longer but we talked her out of it. I think Dads favorite part was driving out in the country checking out the farm land. Wyatt loved the Mall because he went to the theme park while we went shopping.

Yesterday we went to a butterfly conservatory! It was so fun because I have never been so close to so many butterflies. They were so cool and they let you get so close, they didn't even fly away. I wish I could have stayed there all day. This isn't even 1/2 of the kinds they had.

I started my new job yesterday. Craziness.... I like it so far, the only thing that sucks is they want you to do a lot of tests and reading. I feel like I am going back to school. But I did get to go out on the floor to day and that was so fun. The floor is were they have all the people donating plasma. I am learning so much about it and it's so interesting. I learned how to set up the plasma IV set today and I feel like I caught on pretty quickly. I wish I would have got this job a month and 1/2 ago. But that's how things go. ;)

We went to the Zoo on Saturday and it was really fun. My favorite part was the atrium. It was so amazing, it had flowers, trees, and every kind of plant you could think of. We also saw a bunch of animals and it was free.

We had a great Saturday in the sun! We rode our bikes to the Zoo and all around town. all in all about 20 miles. My legs and butt are killing me!!! We also went to Lake Calhoun and found the coolest contraption! I want one of these swingy things at my house. I felt like I was going to fly off into the middle of the lake.

So I got a new bike! Pretty sweet huh. I almost feel bad about old hermy. But it was time to move on I guess. I love the hot pink on the rims and the seat feels like a pillow! Adam and I went for a ride already and we switched for a min and I rode his new bike and he didn't want to give mine back, what a little stinker. Any one want to go on a bike ride? :)

For the 4th we went with some friends to Still Water. It was such a cute town. The river divides the state line of Wisconsin and Minnesota. It was kind of a shock because I didn't realize how close we were to Wisconsin. We had a little picnic and ate the most delicious somores. Seriously I cant resist those little things. We also went into Minneapolis to watch the fireworks form this really cool bridge. I wish you guys could see it better the bridge has these really cool arches that light up the Mississippi. All in all we had a great weekend! I have to admit I did get a little home sick.... its just not the same with out family. But I'm glad we stayed busy because then I didn't think about missing every one as much. :)
