Callings

I just got called to be the Enrichment Leader in our ward and I have to plan the Relief Society Birthday Party that is going to be held in March. Its coming so fast and I have no idea what I'm doing! I can't seem to remember any of the ones that I went to in the past and I want my first big event to be a real hit. I googled "Relief Society Birthday" and all the ideas that came up sounded so boring. Baaahh!!! What to do...

Summer's Comin!

The draft is over and the verdict is in. Drum roll please! We are going to FORT WORTH TEXAS !!!
Greg is pretty excited. Fort Worth was in their top 5 cities, I think it was actually their number two choice. I have never been to Texas but basically all I've heard is that it is HOT!

Its nice knowing where we will be this summer so we can start looking for apartments and fun things to do. (Its not Houston Brittany, but its kinda close...) I guess now I can really break in my boots and cowboy hat. I know nothing about Texas except its big, people from there are VERY proud of their state, and most of the people I've met from there talk a lot. Guess its time I start "google-ing" and find out more about our soon-to-be town.

Upcoming Draft!

This weekend Greg and his co-manager David will get to choose where we are going this summer! The waiting is almost over. I'm excited about this summer. We are going to have a great group of guys on the sales team, but we're also going to have a fun group of girls too! One of the girls going out with us, Aubrey, is my new running buddy. She is an awesome motivator and I'm really looking forward to running this summer with her as she trains for a marathon in May and I hope to get into the Top of Utah Marathon in the fall.  

Snowmobiling

Last weekend Greg and I were able to go snowmobiling in West Yellowstone with my sister Alicia and her boyfriend Jeff. It was my first time, and to be honest, it wasn't my favorite, but it was fun. The great thing was that I didn't get too cold, which has never happened before. Anytime I do anything centered around snow I FREEZE. Everybody had a good time and thankfully no one got hurt. The biggest mishap is in the video below. Jeff got a little too gutsy I guess, and tried going up a small hill. 

Complaints Department

I understand that by teaching others you learn way more in the process of studying and preparation than you would learn otherwise, but I'm tired of group presentations! In every single class this semester, we have to do some sort of group presentation and in a few of my classes, we are required to do MULTIPLE group presentations. I hate them. That is all.

Christmas

This is William Wallace our new puppy. Santa brought him for me for Christmas. Greg wasn't too thrilled with the silverware Santa brought for him, but Santa was good to me this Christmas. We spent Christmas at our house in Rexburg and really enjoyed just being together. Greg's brother Garrett stayed with us for a few days and then puppysat while Greg and I visited my brother Landon and his family in Las Vegas.  School will be starting again here in about two days and I'm not sure I'm ready. I think another two weeks of Christmas break are in order. Oh well. 

The Grand Finale!

School Is OVER! Well at least for a few weeks of Christmas vacation. Gregory is actually still working on some last minute stuff to turn in, but I'm done! We had a great Thanksgiving in Mississippi with Greg's grandparents and visiting his aunt and her family. We enjoyed playing games and just catching up. Gregory had so much fun looking at old pictures of his family growing up. We also ended up eating THREE Thanksgiving dinners!

We went on a cruise to Mexico with Platinum, the company Greg works for, and enjoyed some days in the sun and some great waves at the beach. I'll post pictures of that later (I don't have my camera with me).

This week we have neglected EVERYTHING since we were working so hard to catch up on the week of school that we missed while on the cruise, and taking all of our finals. But we did enjoy going to our friend Bryce's birthday party. These are pictures of Greg after the party at his new desk in the Platinum building.

These are a few pictures that were on Greg's iphone that were taken on the cruise. Some are a little blurry but you get the idea.
