!-Texas and Oklahoma trips-!

These last two weeks have flown by! I have been employed full-time for one month now. Still feels like I just started. These last two weeks I was in Abilene TX and Perry/Stillwater Oklahoma. In Abilene we were on ACU's campus. I worked with Michelle, Caryn and Lindsey. They are all great girls. We worked-out at Hendrick Health Club in town. They let us work-out for the whole week for only five dollars, which we were all really greatful for.The fitness center in our hotel was the size of a closet. We took spin and body pump classes that were pretty good and made me sore! The rental car we had was a mini van. I bet people thought it was funny to see four twenty-three year old girls cruising in the mini van.I remember sitting outside of the hotel soaking up the sun reading a book. I thought that life couldnt get better than that.:) During the weekend I went to a YSA game night. It was good to get out of the house... This last week we were screening in Perry OK for a company called Ditch Witch. I was with the same girls minus Lindsey. It was a busy week and freezing cold outside. Quite the opposite of Abilene. We ate at a famous place on OSU's campus called Eskimo Joes.
We got these really cool color changing cups and I bought an Eskimo Joe's t-shirt. The last day we screened at Ditch Witch, Caryn asked if we could get Ditch Witch T-shirts so we now all have t-shirts. We drove home in a freak snow storm. I thought I had moved far enough south that I wouldnt see that much snow again, but ...i was wrong. I hear they still dont have power there. This weekend I am just relaxing. Im going to buy my camera on Monday and finally will be able to post real pictures. I did my best with the the downloaded pics off of google. The suburban and snow pictures are off my phone camera. enjoy.

-!Arkansas, Texas and Mississippi Trips-!

Well I dont normally like to blog when I dont have pictures to let you SEE instead of READ what I have been up to. Ill download some from the internet but I havent taken much pictures since my camera broke at graduation. Life has been good to me. I am now living in Dallas, Texas and enjoying my job at Viverae. My first day they sent me to Little Rock, Arakansas with Jackie and Yvette. It was definetly a week of learning experiances, but I feel like I am catching on pretty good. Jackie and Yvette are great people and were fun to work with.

I began church at my new singles ward in Dallas a couple weeks ago. Its a lot smaller than I thought it was going to be, but the people seem great and Im looking forward to getting to know all of them. I have yet to see the temple here.

This week I visited Amarillo,Dumas, Lubbock, Levelland and Brownfield, TX for work. I met some really nice people and got to see parts of Texas that I have never been to before. Also I got to test the Ford Focus out as it was my rental car for the begining of the week. This is a picture of Amarillo Texas.

Also my favorite part of this past week was to go to Gulfport, Mississippi. Its right on the ocean and it was fun working down there! I worked with Stephanie and a few local contracters. It was great meeting Stephanie. Joe came over from Baton Rouge, Louisiana to see me. I havent seen him in a year! After working all night he drove to Gulfport to spend a couple hours with me. Thank you for doing that, hope you get some sleep today!Now I am back in Dallas for the weekend and looking forward to a concert tonight in Fort Worth!Below is a picture of Gulfport. It is gorgeous!
