Month of February


Yes, it has been a while since I have written anything on the blog, life has changed around here. February has been a great month so I will just keep it short and write the highlights.

1- Doug and I celebrated our three year anniversary of being married. We celebrated by Doug going to a Clippers Game with his father.

2- We went to Disney Land again and Doug said that it counted as part of our Anniversary. We once again had a marvelous time and I love Mickey but not the Tower of Terror.

3- My new position at work is going great. I even have time to join a gym and go to spin class as often as possible. Doug still claims that he can kick my butt on a bike ride but he wont take my challenge of coming to spin class with me.

4- The adoption process in still going on. We are patiently waiting for a little bundle of joy to bless our family. The waiting process is hard because I feel like a part of me is missing and just aching for a child but it will happen when it is meant to happen.

5- I still have regular girls nights out with the MBA Wives Club. We run together, bake together, and go see movies. It is always a good time.

6- I got released from Nursery today (don't worry, Doug is still in there) to be in the Relief Society Presidency. I am the Enrichment Counselor and very excited. I love to plan activities so it is a perfect fit.

7- Doug has had some insightful interviews with the bank UBS and we are praying very hard that he gets a New York interview. I think once they meet him in person there is no question that they will be begging Doug to take the internship.

8- We did celebrate Valentines Day together this year and I even got a signed card from Doug...I will treasure it always.

9- DTtransfer is keeping me very busy so not only do I work all day, I get the joy of working all night as well. Mama is bringing home the bacon.

10- We have gotten to play a lot with Doug's family (fancy dinners, more Clippers games, movies). It has been a real joy and a blessing living close to them.

That is it, my top 10 favorites things in February, I will try to be better about this whole blogging thing. Don't worry, I have been just as bad on Facebook.

Congrats on the anniversary. The UBS thing is awesome. We will also be pulling for you guys to land a gig back in NY.

"I will treasure it always" - ha! So funny. And PS - we no longer wish to be associated with Iowa, so if you could change our link to reflect our new, cooler state, we'd be eternally grateful :)

sounds like it was a good month.

So good to read an update about you guys. We need to get the girls together for a trip to HB this summer and you all can stay at my house.

So glad you've posted, and you'll be awesome in your new calling. Sorry Doug's left to the little one without you. I wonder how long that'll last.
Have a good week!
