The New, The Old and the Awesome

My job is going pretty well. We moved to a different building and I have been working lots of hours. When I quit working overtime I am going to be sad as my paychecks will be substantially less. I am just enjoying the chance to work. I love my co-workers which makes a huge difference in the enjoyment of a job. They are all so great. In a twist of fate, it looks like my buddy Megs is going to be able to come work with me as well, which means that my new job is looking more and more like my old job. Minus the drama and yuckiness. :)

One more big change for our family is that Jason is now officially a student again. He started at Western Governors University at the beginning of this month and is liking it so far. It's nice to have that going again. It is an online university and because of that it is a little more self paced. We are hoping that he can get through it faster then traditional school. He is getting his bachelors in Business Management. We are excited about it. I am looking forward to him starting his math class so that I can help, I kind of miss Algebra :) I know, I'm sick haha. With going to school online we bought him a laptop, and I got jealous so we bought me a laptop too. Its so cute, with white with pink polka dots. I love it, and I know I'm spoiled.

I had a good birthday, thanks everyone for the well wishes. When I got to work one of my co-workers had bought me my favorite sugar cookies from Schmidts. YUMMY! I don't think I have had them since I quit working there, which would have been my senior year of high school, that means 10 years ago. I loved them. Then my co-workers had decorated my desk, which was fun and then I got a certificate for a pound of See's Chocolates from work. Sweet! Then I got home and Jason had gotten me a pretty necklace and earrings. I like them a lot, but the part that was most impressive about his present was the pink bag and tissue paper and the sweetest card I have ever read. (See Picture) The card made me bawl it was so sweet. If you can't read it, the card on the front says "For the Love of my Life, From the Man who adores You." He said the lady at the store sort of teared up when she saw it. :) I also was shocked that he went to the hassle of getting me a cute pink bag complete with tissue paper. Thanks baby :)

My awesome in laws got me a few of those super cute watches that the bands are made of beads and you change it up with different watch faces and stuff. They are so cute and I have wanted them for a long time so I was stoked for that. Then with the money from my parents and others I was able to buy myself some diamond stud earrings that I love. This being 28 isnt so bad.

A while ago I was talking to my neice Erin and she mentioned that she has never been to Las Vegas. Of course I took that opportunity and ran with it. So, that turned into a fun trip that we are taking this weekend to Vegas. We are going to stay at Excalibur and we got tickets to see the Phantom of the Opera. We recruited another one of my neices, Kira, who also hasn't been to Vegas and then my sister in law Kami is coming too. We are really excited and I think we will have a great time. :) Anybody have any things that people who haven't been to Vegas need to see or do, let me know! We are just going for the weekend, but fun should be had by all!

Speaking of Kira, she is my sister Chris's daughter and they live in Boston. However, they are currently driving across country to move back to Salt Lake. We are really excited to have them back in the Valley. :) That will mean all Woodbury's are in the State. WooHoo! Anyway, hope all is well with everyone. :)
