hello june, nice to see you
We have been so busy, but then again I feel like that is always our excuse! Lance and I are both working full time, which is a lot since Lance has the hour commute and I'm splitting my attention between two jobs. Here is a little bit of what we've been up to for the past little bit. I don't know why I like to write in lists, but it makes things more simple for me :)
Brazil Butt Lift:
So I decided that I needed an exercise program, and came across this DVD when googling a fun effective work out. Lance (or should I say the Easter bunny) gave it to me for Easter. About three weeks ago we decided to start it. It starts off with a "pencil" test (no joke, a pencil actually came in the box). You have to stick the pencil underneath your bum cheek to see how much "lift" your booty needs. If the pencil stays, you need to work your bum! Lance and I were pretty nervous because we are so outta shape. We took turn putting this pencil underneath our cheeks. TADA! It didn't stay on either of us. So bloggers, we have lifted bums! I know- we rock. But nonetheless, we started the DVD. It absolutely kicked our trash. Leanodrjo is not joking around, that DVD will get you in shape! We haven't been very committed to it, as we both work about full time and are super busy. We plan on doing it at least a couple times a week, and we'll keep you posted on our booty-licious work out.
Taylor Gets a Ticket
Sigh. There are firsts for everything. I was on my way to work and I saw a cop. I thought to myself "oh good, I'm not speeding for once!". However, shortly after the stop sign I was pulled over. To make a horrendously long story short, I was apparently didn't stop before the white line. Seriously? So Lance and I got to fork up $90 cash for that little mistake. Such is life.
House Hunting
Lance's commute to SLC everyday has been really hard on the two of us. It feels like he works 10.5 hour days rather then 8, just because of the drive! He has been so sweet about it, but I feel like it would be best if our family moved a little father north. We hope to be in the PG-Lehi area. However, finding an apartment that has what we need has been so difficult! Luckily we have until August 1st, and we're livin' on a prayer that the right place will pop up :)
Pugs, Not Drugs
Lance and I are both obsessed with dogs, and we have been talking about getting a puppy since I can remember. Me being the obsessive researcher, and a little bias towards pugs (those cute squishy faces have had my heart since 3rd grade) has come to the conclusion that they are great apartment dogs. Lance and I are SOOO excited to move out and get a pug puppy! His name will be Watson. We can't wait to be proud little "parents" :)
We Will be and Uncle and an Aunt!
Lances brother and sister in law, Phil and Lupe, are expecting a little girl, Jade Autumn Earnshaw on August 12. We are so excited to meet her! I'm excited to buy her clothes and spoil her rotten! Lance and I aren't planning on having little ones for quite awhile, so we are so excited to be around a family members sweet baby!
Pharmacy Pharmacy Pharmacy
Lance has been studying really hard for a National Licesening test he needs to take for his job at the hospital. He is already a licensed pharmacy tech but his job requires a different license. To me it just seems like $150 to have what he already has but I'm not going to call and argue. His test in on Friday so he will be studying all week. I know he will do great, he is very good at what he does. He comes home every day and tells me all his stories. I get about 20% of his stories...most of them have way too much drug references for me to understand. (haha this sounds like a PG 13 movie now doesn't it? :) He absolutely loves his job, a happy husband makes a happy wife!
Inventions
Lately I have been obsessed with inventions. Lance will tell you that most of my conversations start out like "who do you think invented _______". I don't know why that has fascinated me so much lately! Like who do you think invented popsicles? How amazing was the first automatic car wash, that had to be pretty sweet! Who figured out that glass cut the right way could correct your vision? Who figured out the radio? Etc. He nice enough to squint his eyes and at least make an attempt to wrack his brain for an answer before he says "umm honey I don't know" :)
We are hoping to plan some fun mini trips this summer, so far we've wasted it away apartment hunting and working! No fun, makes me miss last summer when Lance and I were living with our parents, we didn't have jobs. We'd wake up, go hang out, get drinks and sonic, play at parks, watch CSI and just enjoy each others company. It was the best. We miss each other a lot, being so busy but that's okay! We're living the student life, and we'll get to where we want to be eventually. Mucho Love- L&T

We may not have it all together, but together we have it
