Yodle lay he who...?

Friday I was offered a job at Yodle as a Marketing Consultant and today I will be accepting the position! J and I have been praying for a long time about where I needed to be career wise, I haven't been happy at The Herald in very long time--- sadly, print advertising in rapidly falling by the wayside. This job fell straight from Jesus and into my lap, and we couldn't be more excited for a new hapter in my career. It's kind of bittersweet to leave The Herald, after all they did give me a start right out of college and for that I'll be forever grateful.

The wedding pictures came in on Saturday and I literally ran out to meet the mailman as he put them in our box, J thought I was nuts! They are better than I could have ever dreamed they would be, Brett Seay is fabulous! I'll be posting them online soon so keep a look out :)

J bought me a kayak this weekend!! Another Craigslist purchase I might add. It's hot pink, ha. We've decided we want to become more active and get outside more. We're trying to find J a kayak now, fingers crossed we will soon. He's the best husband ever, just throwing that out there!

So last night even though I realize now I shouldn't have, I watched Marley & Me. Worst Decision, ever. The first time I watched it I was not a pet owner. And obviously if you've read this blog EVER you know I'm now a dog mom and I cried like you wouldn't believe throughout the whole movie. Even though it was more of a sobfest than anything else, I really love the story that shows how couples go through a lot, nothing turns out as we planned-- it turns out better and how a dog is so loving throughout everything that happens...

"A dog has no use for fancy cars or big homes or designer clothes. Status symbol means nothing to him. A waterlogged stick will do just fine. A dog judges others not by their color or creed or class but by who they are inside. A dog doesn't care if you are rich or poor, educated or illiterate, clever or dull. Give him your heart and he will give you his." -John Grogan

We love our mutt :) he makes our family whole

Summer Highlight

Summer is officially here and my hair dresser is back from vacation, soooooo I got some highlights for the summer :) Man it's been a while since I've had lighter hair, remember in February when I did this....?

Not much to report this week on the house front, there's been a lull in decorating. J took me a hot date last night to Red Bowl, we realized that they have a very limited Sushi menu so we opted for Spicy Tangerine Beef and Bourbon Chicken. J was not impressed with the Bourbon chicken and says we won't be going back there for date night anymore.

We've also decided, well J more than I, that we're going to buy kayak's. We went and explored down at RiverWalk after dinner and this affirmed J's desire for kayak's even more. So, I hit up Craigslist and we found some great deals. Fingers crossed they'll come through like most of our purchases from there do. The only one we've had a problem with so far is a guy selling a glass door that we LOVE will not call us back to go and pick it up this week. Sighhhhh....

We Red Boxed after RiverWalk with Battle of Los Angeles. I was really impressed with the movie honestly, not a ton of computer graphics done so things looked legit. I would recommend watching this with your guy if he's into war, Call of Duty, shooting guns, etc. It'll probably score you some points :) I liked it, but then again I'm into 'boy' movies about 95% of the time.
