House Update & More

So here is the update on our house through July. It is all framed in and the process should have picked up but it didn't I think it actually slowed down.

The house is a little behind now and hopefully we will be able to move in the first part of September. It has been so much fun building a house and picking out our paint, flooring, cabinents, appliances, etc... We have mostly agreed on everything that we pick out. I haven't taken any pictures this month, but we now have doors, windows, interior doors, and it is mud and taped. MaCade and his friend Joel put in the tile this past weekend and this weekend they will work on the hardwood flooring. I told Joel we owe him and his wife big time not just for his labor, but the fact that we keep pulling him away from his wife and kids.

Other updates are last weekend we sold our apartment contract and so until the house is done we moved in with our parents. It has been nice being home with family, but at the same time I have learned why it is so nice to have your own place.

Last week we also won the Bear River Ladies Softball League Championship!!! We were so excited because ever since MaCade has coached us we have placed 4th, 3rd, 2nd, and now 1st!! We were dying to win, because it seemed like every year we lost to the same team and for once we were the Champions! We had to come back up through the loosers bracket so the final night we played 3 games and had to play the #1 team in the tournament twice, it was a long night and boy after the 3 day tournament I was so sore. I love having MaCade as our coach!! He really pushes us all to our limit and really wants us to improve each game.

So next week is the BEC Fair and Rodeo, this year my sister and I took it upon ourselves to be the Fair Parade Directors and we definetly did not know what we were getting into. It is a lot of work to organize a parade. The parade is this Wednesday and with our committee of volunteers I think we can pull it off. So those of you from BEC let me know if the parade was good or not and maybe what we could do to improve it next year.

Also one last piece of good news, I got a new job!! I am so excited I will still be working at the University, but I will actually be able to use a little bit of my degree with my new position. I am so excited and can't wait to start. I start on Sept. 2nd. It seems like everything exciting is coming all at once between the house and the new job. We have been so greatful for all the life changes that have taken place over the last year and hope that there are more to come.

Another Update

We just don't have that much exciting going on this summer. We have been busy though. I have been playing softball 2 nights a week while MaCade has been coaching one of my teams. For the weekend of the 24th my twin counsins from Texas came into town and we had a fun filled weekend spending time with family. This past Tuesday I put our apartment contract up for rent and by that night I had it sold. We are so excited that our house will be done by the end of the month, we can't wait to have a place of our own. Until the house is finished we will be moving in with family. It shouldn't be too bad we will only be there for 2 to 3 weeks.

I am officially graduated as of today!! Yes I said I graduated in May, but that was because I had to walk then or wait to walk in December. Now that I am graduated and almost done with softball I am not sure what I am going to do in my spare time. I do hope that now I will actually see my husband more than right before we go to bed.

Just another thank you to all my family and friends that have supported me while I was in school. And a special thanks to my wonderful husband for always pushing me along! I could not have done it with out him. Love ya Cadeo!
