1. My car died close to valentines day, and i was so sad because i loved that little thing! I was traveling to Pheonix with Shari to go on a recruiting trip (we flew to Vegas) and while on the rezz my car just pooped out! We had to change the flight, and then wait for Shari's husband Kelly to get off work so he could tow us home. THEN, we got back in her car to drive to the airport and then on to Vegas...all of this happend within a 7 hour period. It was a long day, but really fun. Anyway, we got my car into a shop and they said it would cost $3000 to get it fixed. Now considering i only payed $1000 for it, it just didn't seem worth it. This leads me to point number two.
2. We got a new car! We shopped around for a while and figured what we could afford. We have never had a reliable car and after being married 5 years it's nice to have the freedom of a good car. At the used car lot here in town, we found a good sized family car that was owned by a family that lives just up the street from my parents. Anyway, 44K miles, a 2006 Mercury Montego, comparable to an Altima or Maxima in size, and they sold it to us a trade in value price! We felt so good about the car and have not had any buyers remorse! The picture below is from a website, the color of our car is a light greenish silver.
3. Like i said in the last section, we have been married for 5 years April 9th. woohoo.
4. Clifton turned 29 two weeks later (April 23rd). He's not happy about it. People would ask him how old he is and he says "Not 30!" True.
5. I went golfing for the first time last thursday. It was "The Annual EAC Athletic Department Golf Party". So much fun. We were put on teams of 4 or 5 and whomever had the best shot is where we all played from...as a team. There were times when my shot was the best. The coach that put the game on was actually impressed that it was my first time on a golf coarse. What can i say?
6. Clifton took his final last tuesday for block 3 nursing. Before going into his last test, he felt confident that he would pass...and he did! He got a 90% on his final. He still hasn't got his final grade yet, but we are positive we don't have anything to worry about. Yeah! Only one more semester to go!
7. I've been helping my parents paint and stuff so they can move next door into my grandma and grandpa's house. It makes sense for them to live there...it's a smaller house, it's one level, etc. They want to be moved over before Chris gets home from his mission (July 16th)...thats only a few short months away! I'd better hurry up and finish my projects so we can get them moved over!
8. Curtis has been showing an interest in the potty lately. Until we went away for a weekend. He did so good for 4 days, and hasn't returned to the pot since. I ask him if he would like to go, and he says no. But before we left on our weekend trip, he was telling me he had to go! And after only 4 days? I wish he would want to go again. Below is Curtis wearing daddy's shoes.
