She Lives!!!

Celine is alive and well! All we had to do was replace the battery. I'm so glad that's all it was and it didn't cost us a lot to fix her. Let's be honest here...a '93 Toyota Corolla with 262K miles on it, not really worth putting more than a couple hundred into fixing. If that were the case we would have said, "Well...she's lived a good life and it's time to put her to rest." But, she's a tough old bird and isn't going down that easily just yet. Hopefully we'll get a few more good years out of her before she finally decides to kick the bucket. :)

Break Down...

So last night Tyler told me he would be home from work around 6:00. I got the house cleaned, the dishes and laundry all done, and dinner made. I look at the clock and it's 6:30...and no Tyler. I go look at my phone and I have 4 missed calls, 2 text messages, and a voice mail. Tyler's car wouldn't start and he's stuck on campus! Luckily he was able to get ahold of a friend to come rescue him (because I didn't hear my phone over the washing machine, dryer, and dinner cooking) Anyway, he was quite sad that his beloved Celine wouldn't start. It has no signs of life. So she gets to spend a few days parked on campus until we can fix her. Hopefully it won't be too expensive or difficult. We can manage with just Oscar (my car) but it's going to be a rough few days. Here's hoping that all goes well...

I'm still alive!

So I realize I'm a horrbile blogger. I just get busy and forget about it. :) Anyway I don't think I've posted anything since my birthday...which was AWESOME by the way. I basically have the greatest husband of all time. Believe it...it's true. I love that boy so very much.  :) And now I have to stop that before I induce gagging in all my wonderful readers causing them to never come back and read about my rather boring life again. ;)

As for an update...school started...again. It's never going to end I swear. Hopefully it will go quickly and according to plan. This semester shouldn't be too bad for me as far as classes go, the only one I'm taking that's required for my major is Stats and it's a retake because I crashed and burned last semester. In my defense though...it's hard being a full time student, having a full time job, and planning a wedding all at once. Last semester was awesome for me (*cough cough*). Good thing I won't have to do that again.

Speaking of marriage...we're coming up on 4 months already! How crazy is that?! It does not feel like it's been that long already. Time flies when you're having fun I guess.

Speaking of fun. We've been having lots of it this summer. Most of it has just been getting our house organized and feeling like ours and spending time with each other. But, this Labor Day weekend we went up with my family to our cabin in the Uintahs. It was so wonderful to get away from everything for a few days. We took our homework with us, but did any of it get done? Of course not! We felt a little better about ourselves just bringing it though, it's the thought that counts right? Instead we played games, went 4-wheeling, walked down to the river, and watched movies. It was a good time and helped Tyler come out of his shell around my family a little bit. That was great...they haven't quite grasped the magnitude of his ridiculous-ness yet. So that was a good thing.

Speaking of good things. Me and Tyler had some time between classes the other day so we went and checked out Day on the Quad (since it was the first week of school). There was a booth for SE Needham Jewelers and they were having a drawing for a Wii. We put our names in just for fun to see what would happen. I got a call at work from Tyler later that day...that's right WE WON! Well Tyler's name was drawn so I guess HE won. Funny part of this story though...we already have a Wii...so we have a brand new, never been used, still in the box Wii if anyone wants to buy it from us. :) It was pretty funny. We laughed about it for a long time.

Anyway I think that's all the exciting things we've got right now. I'll try to keep up better in the future. :)
