Colbie!

So we spent our Friday night raiding thrift stores, getting milkshakes at Sonic, and checking our blood pressure. We for sure felt like losers!

Lucky for us, Colbie Caillat saved our weekend and came to concert in Poky! We love her! Alan's friends gave him a hard time and said I owed him for making him come to the concert. Little do they know that Alan probably would have gone to the concert by himself! Best part of the night was that we got to the concert early and some guy in charge of tickets gave us different tickets for a better seat...definitely our lucky day!

Valentine's Weekend 2010

We went to Salt Lake over Valentine's Day weekend. My good friend Melissa got married and my sister and nephew were also in town. I was so bummed I wasn't able to be with Melissa all day because of work but we did make it to the reception. Melissa looked absolutely beautiful and it was so fun to finally meet her husband Mark. It was nice to catch up with friends we hadn't seen in awhile.
It was so good to see my sister and we can't get enough of Weston. We spent the weekend shopping, laughing, eating, and getting pedicures! Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures but of course I got one with my two nephews.
Alan's mom had a Valentine's Day dinner of Alan's favorite...crab legs. He only gets them when she makes them because I'm not a fan. I don't like the taste and it seems to be way too much work to pry out a tiny piece of meat! Alan and I got a couple's massage the weekend before for our Valentine's gift to each other. It was fabulous and much needed!

Life Lately

Things have been pretty uneventful the last couple weeks here in Poky. It seems like all we have been doing is work, work, and more work. Alan is in his second semester of Pharmacy School and started taking classes for his MBA this semester as well. He has class on Mondays from 8:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. I don't envy him! Work for me has been crazy. A couple weeks ago I was asked to do an hour presentation for Channel 12 here in Pocatello that will be aired twice a week for the month of February. Not sure why I was asked to do this assignment but I'm pretty sure it might have something to do with being being the newest employee and getting everyone's dirty work. I think this will be the closest thing I'll get to stardom in my life! I got my stitches off a week ago and I am so glad! I was getting pretty sick of showering like this...

Alan mastered the art of hair washing but I'm pretty sure he is glad he doesn't have to wake up early to wash my hair anymore!
I'm learning that the bad thing about being a homeowner and being in school is that you have no money to decorate. I am on a mission to find cheap things and refurbish them. We went to 5 different thrift stores tonight and came home empty handed...except for these shoes I bought at Ritzy Repeats for $2...what a deal!
The hunt continues for some furniture!
