I have been so bad about keeping up on here lately! I would like to let you know that it is not all my fault. Early February our internet started being really spotty and wouldn't work at random times when I tried to use it, and then it stopped working all together. Reader's Digest version is this- 2 weeks without internet and 5 hours on the phone with At&t later, we switched to Buckeye cable. Our new internet is pretty darn awesome, it is 10 mbps instead of 4 AND it was only $5 more a month. Now when we watch Netflix we can both pause and rewind without a 2 min delay, so I am a happy camper.
I have switched jobs. I am back at Smart Style. It is no match in classy-ness to my previous salon but it has a paycheck and a boss that doesn't treat me like crap. I am happy. David just finished his BIG anatomy test on Friday the 5th. He received a high pass but not the honors he wanted. I'm still VERY impressed but I also feel like if high school AP class grades are worth 1 point more than regular classes then the same is true for medical school. If the class he was taking was a regular college class and not a graduate school class he probably would have gotten honors. Go David! He studied like a mad man and it paid off.
As of February 6th David and I ate the last two Zots from our wedding reception. This is proof
Tah-Dah!
One last sour apple fizzy goodness, it was a pretty momentous occasion.
The weather here has been a multiple personality disorder since the end of January. It will warm up to 40 and 50 degrees, melt 80% of the snow and rain for a week. The next week will drop back down to mid 20's and 30's and just DUMP snow, this has happened at least 4 times. I'm not really complaining but I also don't really know what to expect. In Idaho I know it always snows at LEAST once in April. without fail. every year. It used to bother me. Now I expect it. It is still sooooo funny to me to watch people just lose it when it snows in April, especially when they have lived in Idaho Falls for years on end. It makes me laugh. Get used to it!
We came home to this one night in Feb, this snow drift was a lot bigger than it looks.
On the driver's side it came up past the tire. I had to take an accelerated start just to get over it and into our garage!
When I went to visit my great-grandma, before she died, this is what my car looked like after the ice storm and the ground and the grass and the trees and the road and well you get the point.
As my Dad would say the road was slicker than snot! gross.
This picture is kind of blurry but if you look close you can see four deer. They live on David's medical school campus and I have seen them at various places. It's neat to feel like nature is still so close.
Last but not least I was going to share this picture with my 99 Years Young post but I forgot. This headstone is my Great Grandma's parents. Macie and William Burdsall are the ones we share our wedding anniversary with.
Last but not least-est while I was in Hamilton my grandpa Joe gave me this and I was SO ecstatic! It's Macie and William's original marriage license. I'm hoping to frame it and hang it with their wedding picture on the wall next to our marriage license and picture. This may sound funny but I have always felt some what distant from my Mom's family but sharing their anniversary really helps me feel closer to them.
