Wow, it has been about 2 months since I have posted! So sorry, but life has been a well lets call it a challenge. Marriage is AMAZING; I love finally being married to Jeff, that part of life couldn't be better! After the wedding we honeymooned in Primm, it was a great time, but we were super excited to get back to our new home and set it all up and open presents! We got a lot of amazing presents which was pretty sweet! After that good time in la la land life started: bills, bills, bills, and the drama of my parents losing their house and me not finding a job yet and so on and so forth. So to say the least the last couple of months have been extremely trying and difficult. April started out great, but went out with a bang when my parents (who were working with some refinance company, which screwed them over) had their house foreclosed on; it was a super rough time for me because I was financially helpless and I felt horrible for this all happening the same month their youngest daughter up and got married and left them all alone. Luckily I am married to an absolutely amazing man who stood by my side and helped me through the drama and the pain and the guilt, which he said I had absolutely no need to feel. He also said “Honey, your parents are going to be just fine, everything happens for a reason and they are going to make it through this” I love him so much and he was right, god doesn’t go around punishing people, things always happen for a reason and he has a plan for each and every one of us. So Jeff and I put on some raggedy clothes and headed to St. George Mother’s Day weekend (Also my Mom’s birthday weekend) of all weekends to start helping my parent’s pack up there stuff and start moving it out. It was a very unproductive weekend, because we ended up helping a super ungrateful person try to move her stuff out so my parents could move in. By the way there have some friends who have 10 acres of land just up the road in Veyo, turns out that it is just what they need for my mom to run the trail rides off of and also that there is plenty of room for all of the animals! So the next weekend rolls around (my birthday weekend) Jeff and I head down again and this time we got a lot down, I worked on fences and Jeff worked on one of the huge horse corrals my parents have. We were going to leave on Sunday; however my sister Cassie showed up and needed our help so Jeff called into work and we stayed. We woke up early and busted our buts getting things packed and moved; by the way Monday was my birthday, we then packed a trailer full of stuff to take to our houses and headed back Monday night. My sister drove home and turned around the next day and drove back, I went back down on Wednesday and came home Thursday night we moved ALL 20ish horses and the corrals in one flippin’ day, it was the hardest day of work in my life no joke, this was Wednesday. We took the weekend off so I could get some stuff around our house done and to rest a little, plus Jeff had to work Saturday. Sunday night my mom called me up and asked if I could come down and help her out, so Monday morning I woke up early and headed back down. We got one huge trailer full loaded up and moved and another trailer half loaded before I had to head back home. The next day I was expecting to chill and then head back down on Wednesday, however nothing ever works the way I expect it to. My sister calls me up and says she is coming back down and I was going with her, she got to my house around 1 and we headed back down. We took another load of stuff and then loaded a HUGE woodpile up (thank goodness for the help of the neighbors or I could very well be dead by now) to burn the next day, we ended up going to bed around 2am and waking up at 7am (those of you who know me know I am not good on no sleep) I woke up the next morning sick, throwing up, it was awful but I had to get stuff done because they were suppose to be out of the house by….TODAY. It isn’t gong to happen. So we came home Wednesday night and I am so freaking worn out and tired and out of touch with everyone it isn’t even funny. My parents have lived in the same house for almost 20 years and they have A LOT of CRAP to move so this is why I am so crazy and stressed and typing a novel for all to read, but hey now you know!!!
So to say the least my life has been a crazy down hill sprint this last couple of months, but on the plus side we are going on vacation to Cali with Tanya and the kids June 5th - 9th so we are super excited for a nice little well deserved break! I will try my hardest to update on a regular basis, we will see how that goes, but for now much love!
