SO much to update on...........

Well, now that I finally have a moment to update my life, I sit and wonder where do I begin.

I went to ND the 6th-14th of October and that was a great time! That stay was great as always. I drove there, which was really nice because I had my own vehicle during my stay, which allowed me to go and visit several people. One very special thing I got to do during my stay was vist Grand Forks. That was the first I had been there since graduation (2005). All I can say is WOW...that place has grown! During my day in Grand Forks, I went to visit my friend, Liz, grave site. My blog spot is named after Liz (well, it's really named after her "Liz Winks", but you get my drift). After I got done at the cemetary, I got to meet Liz's mom for supper. This was SO special. We laughed, cried, etc etc. Let me tell you....Peg (Liz's mom) is one special lady. I see so clearly where Liz got her strength and personality from.

The rest of my stay in ND was spent with family. I had a GREAT time with the family. I didn't have time to see all my friends, which made me sad, but I know that we are coming back for Christmas...so that will be our chance to visit a few more friends during that time...hopefully.

Now, onto some VERY big news....I got a PROMOTION at work!!!! It is VERY exciting and VERY unexpected. It's a GREAT new challenge, and I'm up for it!!

I ended up getting sick this weekend, so I have been laying low all weekend so I can be ready for work tomorrow!!!!

Well, it's time to sign off. Take care all and have a great week!!!

We are getting a YARD!!!

So...for those of you that have been to my house, you will realize that it was a true bachelor pad before I came into the pic and into Aaron's life! Well, for like the last year (or more) I have been bugging Aaron for a yard (grass, etc), so that the house doesn't look so run down (it is only 4 years old afterall...but it looks much older than that just because there is no yard). SO...Aaron is getting the sod TOMORROW for our front yard! I am SO excited for this!!!

That is about the biggest news I have...I think, anyway. Our wedding website is still in the works, but when it gets done, I will send out a mass email with the link to the website.

One week from tomorrow, I will be heading to North Dakota for a few days (well, until the 14th of October to be exact). It will be a long vacation, but that's what I need to do so that I can see all my family. It should be fun, and hopefully it won't be snowing by then!

Well, it's time to close. There wasn't much to write...and if I think of something else...I will let you all know! :) Until then...take care and much love to all who read this site!!! :)

Walking in Faith and Not in Fear.....
