And my wallet rejoiced!

I just had to share my excitement with everyone! Today I went to COSTCO to fill up my very thirsty car. The empty light was on and I think the gas gauge was actually below the empty line, so the car was VERY empty. Well, shortly after beginning the filling, the gas pump clicked telling us that it was done filling up our thirsty car. I then looked up with great anticipation to see what the total was and it was only $25. For only $25 my car went from pretty much empty to totally full! I was so excited!!! At only $1.78 a gallon, is $1.50 a gallon an unrealistic Christmas wish?

That's my Sweetie!

So, it's official! Nate got a promotion! He is now the Dean of Students at the Orem campus of Utah Career College. He'll be over everything Student Services related. He's been there just under 3 months, so I'd say that's pretty impressive!!

P.S. He's looking for a Registrar to work with him in the Student Services department, so if you or someone you know is looking for a full time job with benefits, let him know.

Mad Madam Mimms!

This weekend Emily came down from Rexburg to visit. She came Thursday night and just left today. We didn't do anything super exciting, but it was fun! After getting Emily some tires on Friday we did some window shopping then went to PetSmart to buy Teddy a crate.

We had a slow start on Saturday. Once we were out we went to Gateway Mall and did some more window shopping. We went to Anthropologie, where I probably wouldn't have the heart to spend the money on anything, even if I had it. (Ok. I lie. One time I bought a shirt there, but it was REALLY, very much, on clearance). It's a really fun store though. They have really creative and cute stuff. After lots of window shopping we went to Buca di Beppo. Mmmm! That place is so yummy!

Emily left today, but it was fun to have her here. Emily visiting weekends are always nice!

We got a puppy!!

Well he'll be coming to our home on December 5th after he is finished weaning. So were really excited! His name is teddy. He's a brown sable Cocker Spaniel.


He's the top left with the white feet. Cute!!!
