jp's 1st stab at blogging

yo, Jeff here- After all the angry comments and death threats about my lack of blogging, I thought that I should begin my 1st blog adventure by telling a funny story that happened to me a few weeks ago.

So a friend of mine & I went to see a movie...meanwhile his wife and some of her friends carpooled with us to go see a chick flick together.  When our movie was over, we went outside & waited for the ladies to come out.  After 10 minutes, we decided to go up to the ticket booth to find out when the movie was scheduled to get out.  We asked, "what time does the 9:00 sex in the city get out?"  Her response, "The 9:00 showing or the 9:01?"(yes, her hair was blonde)  I instantly pointed at the employee through that thick glass and my laughing echoed through the speaker.  It was not my best moment but my friend and I had a pretty good laugh the rest of the night.

  Life is very busy right now with work and all.  This weekend we were lucky to have the one & only Bobby G stay with us for a day.  We took him to church this morning & then went to Uncle Billy's Brew & Que for lunch (Andrew-I miss you brother).  Work & married life have been going great.  Im so proud of Alyse and all she is learning at work.  The whole night thing took a bit of getting used to but I think we have it down now.  My work is going great.  I am having my best month in 2 years at PFS and I really enjoy what I do.  Everyday I really reflect on how thankful and happy I am that I found something i'm passionate about & put a rest to the landscaping & construction biz.(especially when it breaks over 100 degrees; also, it's pretty tough to get poison ivy 10 times in a summer helping people with their finances!!!)  We miss everyone a lot and are very thankful that we got to see most of you at the wedding.  If you're ever in Austin & need a place to stay, please give us a shout.

until next time,
JP

ya di da di da di daaaa

man, life is moving really fast right now. i see the complaints about jeffrey not blogging...i apologize for him :) we were up at bill and carol's lake house this weekend where we were very active. we went boating watching andrew learning to wake board (which was awesome and looked very exhausting), jeffrey went golfing with the men, jeffrey played tennis with the men, and i went hiking with my mama. obviously...jeff was a little more active than me. the weather couldn't have been more beautiful, hot and clear with a wonderful breeze. it was so nice i can't believe i only took like 2 pictures and it was of mary and kathy :) 

so we're back from the lake house and plugging back in to real life. i'm working, and loving it. nights are weird to adjust to, but it has been good so far. i only have to work 3 days a week...which are usually in a row so 3 days on 4 days off, etc, etc, etc. the hospital is building a new women's facility which will be great...all our units are expanding. babies and so cute and i can't wait to have a little niece or nephew come the end of january :) jeff and i are super excited that we already sent stuff to them ( i know a little premature, but what can i say...i can't wait!!!!). 

alright...hopefully this update will suffice for a little bit until more exciting things happen in our lives :)

peace out friends
