Finally an update!

Well, I have been very bad about updating and I really have no excuse. Blake and I have been enjoying a relaxing couple of weeks together before he started his orientation and it has consisted of a lot of reading, watching the Olympics, and exploring our new town.

So let me see if I can summarize some of the important things that have happened since my last update...

Blake's brother, Brad got engaged to his wonderful girlfriend, Jeni! He did so on her birthday with a little charm for a bracelet he had bought her. The charm said Marry Me. They are planning a June 2010 wedding and Blake is the best man and I'm a bridesmaid!!!

We got moved into our new house, it's perfect!!! Plenty of space for us and a nice neighborhood. Also, great access to the highways- Blake's only about 12 min from school! Here's some photos:

Hmm, what else has been going on? I got a job:) I am the new Communications Specialist for the Tulsa County Assesors Office. I start Monday! Blake started his orientation yesterday and starts classes this Monday. We have his white coat ceremony this weekend and Darrel and Judy are coming down- it's his official welcome into the program and he's very excited!

I think that about sums us up- I'll try to be better about updating!

We are moving in 10 days!!! We found a rental house in Tulsa- 3 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, 2 car garage, and a privacy fence for our puppies! I'll post pictures once we're moved. The plan is to move all of our stuff the 26th, then come back that next week and finish working. So, we'll be living on an air mattress for about 3 days!

We had Brad's graduation this past weekend- he won the academic award, and we are SO proud of him!!! I also had a baby shower for Carrie, and it went very well- I need to post pictures of both occasions!

Finally, a new post!!! Lots going on, yet not a lot as well. I am very busy with searching and applying for jobs in OK, as well as looking for a place to live. We're also trying to figure out all of our finances, which is difficult since we have no idea what I'll be making. Blake's back in Lamar this week to help out on the farm. He told me they got all of the wheat on one farm cut yesterday and Darrel got to plant milo. YAY!!!

Cory graduated!!! Many congratulations to him and Kristina!!!! I know they've both sacrificed a lot to make this dream come true. And, they're moving to Wichita Falls, TX which is only 3.5 hrs from Tulsa!!!! I can not wait to live closer to them!!!!!

Brad is graduating!!! He's put so much hard work and endured so much for Highway Patrol and again, so proud of him and Jeni!!!

We have a baby shower coming up for Carrie- she and Shane are having a baby GIRL this September. Yay for more pink!!!

That's a pretty general update on what's going on in our lives. Please pray that I will find work in OK soon, and a perfect rental home will become available.
