Game Weekend!

There is not much to do on rainy/snowy weekends. I always find myself sleeping alot and acting very depressed. I was very surprised to have such a fun weekend and I am pretty sure it was all because of my new favorite game. The game is called Ticket to Ride. My parents bought Jake and I the Eroupe version for Christmas and we had such a great time playing literally all weekend long. We also have started playing a game called Settlers of Catan but I just cant quite figure out the strategy behind it and get so frustrated. If any of you are looking for a fun game to play I would suggest Ticket to Ride. Kids of all ages can play, it brings out your competitive side and makes you think. Geez I sound like a sales man, anyway its a fun game!
My Grandpa Snow just turned 73 yesterday so we went to celebrate his birthday. He is the greatest gramps anyone could ask for. Happy Birthday Grandpa!
Hope everyone had a great weekend. Im hoping this will be the last snow storm of the year. Im ready for spring to come!!
I almost forgot, Jake got a new job last week and started today!! We are very excited its been such a miracle for us to both find new jobs so quickly in such a hard time! I dont know much about the job so I will try and get Jake to post his first blog and let us all know how it is going!!! Yeah!!!!

New Job!

I has been quite a while since I have blogged and I am very sorry. Last week I started a new job at Fusion Imaging. It has seriously been an answer to my prayers. I just wanted to tell everyone thank you that have prayed for me and have been there for me during this very long search for the right job. It has taken alot of patience and alot of interviews but it has finally come. For those of you who dont know Fusion Imaging is a large printing company. During the Olympics in SLC they printed the large athlete posters that hung from the buildings downtown. Since that time we will be doing the special olympics and also the 2010 in Canada. I am so excited to be part of such a strong fast growing company. I have been hired to be an Office Manager/ Administrative Assistant but there has been some bumps in the road and i am training on the Receptionist duties for a couple of months until they find a replacement and then continue to learn more about the company. It will be a great chance for me to learn the basics and then develop more knowledge over time. Just wanted everyone to know that I have moved on and am a very happy employee and very excited to see what the future will bring!!!

Uintahs


We had such a great weekend I am sad to see that it is already over. I think my new favorite get way place is to Kellie's' families Cabin up in the Unitahs. It is so pretty there all year long but the best time is during the winter when the only form of transportation is snowmobile. Its so quite and calm the only thing you can hear is the snow falling off of the trees. I have been sick all week so it was nice to be able to relax by the fire and watch movies, play games, and rest. We definitely did some snowmobiling which isn't the best for my cold but it was well worth it. Jake and I decided that our next investment will be snowmobiles. We both love toys and think its a great idea to start saving up for them now so that someday we can have it all! That's definitely wishful thinking but who knows one day we could be worth millions. I don't know how many of you know but when I was in 6Th grade I chipped my tooth on my grandparents old snowmobiles. One of them had some rusty breaks and I just happened to crash into the vinyl fence and chipped my tooth :-) its definitely not the same but Jake says it builds character and makes up for a good story. Well hope everyone had a good weekend!!
