What a Weekend!

I have a new schedule at Target that gives me Friday and Saturday off. It has been great!

Next weekend I fly to Pittsburgh to pick up my little sister and drive with her to Colorado the next morning. I won't even be there for 24 hours.

It snowed so hard yesterday. After Thursday being a t-shirt day, we were dumped on with snow. Today was sunny again and a lot of the sun melted. I can't wait until we're done with the snow.

Tomorrow, 6am at Target to put up the sale signs in the clothing department! woo-hoo!

Here's to Trying to Blog More Often... Again.

Recently I've found some people I knew when I was 5 years old until I was about 15 years old. I thought I'd do a little run down of my life to get everyone caught up on what I've been up to. (:

Born August 2, 1979 in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba. Dad was in the Navy, stationed there.
Moved to California, eventually got a sister, settled in San Diego, CA.
Attended Southport Christian Academy for K-9th grade.
Eventually got a little brother.
In the middle of my 10th grade year, my dad retired from the Navy and decided to move us out to Pennsylvania where he grew up.
I attended Connellsville Area High School for 10th-12th grade.
I attended Westmoreland County Community College for a year studying Accounting. Decided I didn't like it.
Attended an Acquire the Fire youth convention and chose to attend the Honor Academy (20/20).
Moved to Texas in January 1999. Stayed for a year.
Moved back to Pennsylvania for the first half of 2000.
Was asked to go back to Teen Mania Ministries to volunteer for the summer in the Global Expeditions offices. Then was asked to return to Teen Mania as staff.
Moved to Texas August 2000 to be on staff with Teen Mania Ministries. On their dime I attended Tyler Junior College for computer stuff.
Met husband-to-be while working for TM in 2002.
A year later mutually decided we should get married because we were best friends. No dating, no courting, best friends to marriage. Decided this January 2003, eloped to Reno, NV May 2003.
At the end of the summer of 2003 we, Joam and I, moved to Madison, WI.
In the summer of 2004 we bought a house (thanks to mom-in-law!) in Tyler, Texas and moved there.
Almost got a job back at Teen Mania but it didn't work out (I think for the best).
In 2006, we sold the house and moved to Sacramento, California. Where most of husband's family is.
In 2009, we moved to Boulder, Colorado. A friend from Texas moved there to help with a church plant. We visited once for Thanksgiving a few years back and was really impressed with the city and with the church so we decided we'd like to move there one day... and we did!
We currently live there now. I work for Target and Joam works for UPS.
I talked my little brother, Nick, into moving out here with us. He also works for Target.
Recently I talked my little sister, Jamie, into moving here as well. She'll transfer to the Olive Garden out here.
Next up is getting our parents to sell their house they worked so hard to get and move out here, too! (:

I keep busy working on scrapbooking projects, small group once a week, a one-on-one bible study with a friend, and trying to work out when to hang out with my best friend, Joam, who works overnights. (: No kids. Just us and our dog, Bubba, and our cat, Kitty.

I have been blessed with many friends from all over. I'm horrible at keeping in touch, but you all love me anyways. If you have any questions, feel free to email me or find me on facebook. (:
So I lost my phone a few weeks ago. It was nice and not so nice at the same time. My husband said it would be good for me. Now I have a new phone I agree. :)
