Life

It's been awhile since I last posted. We've been busy. Work is busy for me right now, which I love! Rodger is doing really well with work too, which is a relief since Real Estate isn't at it's best. He has to work harder to earn his business, which is what he is doing. I'm very proud of him. Nothing too exciting is going on with us, just the normal everyday life.
This weekend was fun. Friday after work we went out to dinner with my dads side of the family for my grandma's 75th Birthday! She looks great for her age and is very healthy. Afterwards Rodger and I got to babysit my cousin's little girl, Indie. She's adorable and we had fun. We went to Target and Walmart to get some Christmas lights for our house, she's a good shopping partner. She would just ride on Rodger's shoulders and scream away. Rodger loves her, as do I. We then went home and watched a movie with Rodger's mom, I fell asleep of course.
Saturday we went to work. We first cleaned the entire house and then outside we went. I started mowing the lawn, actually mowing the leaves. We get so many leaves on our yard. We decided to just mow them right up rather than take the extra time to rake and then put them in bags (which I've already done twice this season). While I was doing this, Rodger was up on the roof putting up our Christmas lights. I hope they look beautiful. It will be a test to even see if they will work. Old houses can be a pain when it comes to electrical. Rodger will figure it out, he won't quit.
While doing our Saturday work, Joey and Chels text us and asked if we wanted to go up to my dads house in Eden. They went up Friday since it was Joey's birthday. Rodger was so excited so of course we said yes. We went up Saturday afternoon. We made dinner, some yummy steaks, potatoes with a salad. Then we had a great idea, thanks to Chels. In the master bedroom there are 2 big screen TVs. On one TV was the Jazz game while the other TV was playing the Utes game. It was brillant and perfect. I'm upset the Jazz lost, hopefully they win tonight. Big Jazz Fan!
Sunday was a relaxing day. We went to my moms and helped a little with unpacking. She didn't really want to do it because that's what she's been doing all weekend. So we relaxed and watched a movie. We than had our first Sunday dinner at the new house. It's a beautiful house and she's so happy.
We're excited for Thanksgiving. Our plans are to go up to Eden (again) with my dad, Angela, the girls, Chels & Joey and possibly Ash and Linds. We're excited to have a relaxing long weekend.
