My new phone!




Andrew totally surprised me today by giving me an early birthday present. He said he wanted to get out of the house for a bit and would I like to come along? I was all too happy to have a break from my tiny apartment so off we went. To make a long story short we ended up at the Verizon store at The Gateway. I was really confused but he explained that we were due for an upgrade and that he had a gift certificate from work for 150.00 dollars. So I could pick any phone I wanted for my birthday! He had been planning this for two months! I was quite overwhelmed for minute, we usually don't buy phones we get the freebies that come with the contracts, but I decided I was up for the challenge. I ended up getting a PDA phone called the XV6800 because it had a great camera and I could also use it to plan appointments and keep track of my little family. To say the least I have been really happy with my present and I have played with it all afternoon. Aren't husbands great?

p.s.: Heres a picture of my new phone!

Sorry it has taken SO long!!!

I know I know I know....I have taken forever to do anything with this blog. Life has been so crazy as of late and those of you who have been talking to me lately know exactly what why.:-) Who knew it was so hard to pick a job? But we have finally decided to go to Elko, Nevada to work for Barrick Gold. We are so excited to have this job because Andrew doesn't have to travel and he doesn't have to be underground. Yeah! We will be out in the sticks and we are actually happy to have some country life. We are looking to buy a house out in a little town called Spring Creek. It is about 15 miles from Elko and they do have their own grocery store. Although after checking it out we might decide to go to the Walmart in Elko, the prices were pretty high. But I am so in love with this house! It is 3251 sq feet and 1600 of that is a finished upstairs. The basement is unfinished but the upstairs has three bedrooms and two bathrooms so I think we will be fine until we need the extra space. And speaking of space we will have around two acres!! After living in apartments for last five years it is totally amazing to me to think we will have that much room.
Anyway as soon as I get to use the desktop computer I will post some pictures, Aydan has gotten so big lately! Love you all!
