The New Due!

For those of you who have known me for more then 5 years, I have this odd habit of constantly wanting to re- invent the "bob"! I am a short haired person and have had every hair cut under the sun between my shoulders and ears. Sometimes I get board of the same old thing. So here is my next idea! I'm taking votes!

Fine! I'll give into the Tag!

So I am secretly aware that I have been tagged a dozen + times and have pretended I never read the invitation. Don't ask me why I do the things I do, because there is no logic to it! It is kind of like me and the post office . . . I am not afraid of the post office or think it difficult to find time to go, I just for some reason avoid going and which usually means all Birthday gifts are at least a week late! In fact right now I have 2 items that need to sent off (one of which is a late Christmas gift, oops)! Don't ask me why this time I decided to accept the challenge. For those of you who have tagged me in the past, please dont take it personally, for this tag is dedicated to you!

2peat

So this is my first official post to the blog. But I wanted to give a shout out to my wife, she is currently #2 on her company's presidents club competition. Yep you guessed it, this may be two years in a row that we are going. So I thought I give a couple of shout outs to those that made this happen (granted there is a small chance she might not win but its pretty much in the bag). First, Tom & Sandy - communications is in her blood, second, me for leaving town so much, third, enterprise for making her completely miserable that she looked for a new industry, fourth, Car MAx DC, fifth a great manager - Welcome to the club Luke (who may I add is a phenom with like half of his team in the president club mix).
Becky, you are a star! I love you and it appears that so many others do too. Congrats! (for me too : ) yeah hawaii

My Husband Is a nicer person then I am!!

So everyone once in awhile (ok quit often) Ammon will do something that will remind me how much nicer of a person he is then I am! This one made me laugh. So on Saturday he went to get his haircut. As he was waiting at the salon he struck up conversation with an elderly women. During the conversation Ammon learned that the women brought her granddaughter in for her first "professional" hair cut to celebrate her 13th birthday. Within minutes Ammon headed next door purchased a birthday card and some fancy hair products and gave them to the birthday girl as she was leaving the salon and wished her a happy birthday. Who thinks of this stuff? Ammon does!
I attatched the following picture to a number of reasons . . .
1. I for some odd reason feel that every entry should have a photo
2. While I'm on a roll of embarrassing my husband why not include one of his finest High School shots!
3. To see how long it takes him to notice and make me take it off our blog!

Playing House!

We are officially "playing house"! We just moved into a real house with no shared walls, our own garage, a washer and a dryer that doesn't require coins in order to operate, and lets not forget, a real back yard (with a fence and everything)! For those of you who don't live in California or New York you wont understand our new found excitement, because you actually own a home thats probably twice this size (at least), but for us this is huge!! Good news too . . . We are close to the beach!

Don't Let this happen to you!

So Monday morning California got more rain, but this time it was in our apartment. It has been speculated, that our upstairs neighbor "broke" his toilet by leaning back and cracking the tank (he's a big guy who hopefully doesn't blog). As the day progressed and the water spread both upstairs and down, things got worse. At about 11pm our AC unit that once hung 9 feet off the ground fell to its death (inside our apt) R.I.P. This is what we get to come home to ever night. There is a silver lining to all of this . . . Due to the unfortunate events we are moving next Saturday to a darling house in Huntington Beach and we have NO upstairs neighbors!!

REUNITED!

I thought this day would never come!
3 months ago Ammon received a disturbing phone call informing him that we would be spending the next 3 months working out of the South Dakota office for one of his clients! Much to my dismay we have been apart of most of that time! As of Last night our separation is over! We have been reunited, and Ammon has moved back in! Although there might be a few bumps in the road, such as not having the whole bed to myself, sharing the covers and actually having to cook again, all in all I'M QUIT PLEASED TO HAVE HIM BACK!
Welcome Home Ammon Sullivan, Welcome Home!

Uncle Ammon is the Best!

Wichita Christmas 2007 defiantly went down as one of my favorite Holidays! My favorite parts was watching the special bond between My darling niece Abby Grace and her Uncle Ammon. I think the defining moment was when they built their very first snowman together (apparently San Diego doesn't get very much snow)!

Happy Anniversary!!

As of today Ammon and I are no longer "Newly Weds". It's seems like just yesterday we tied the knot. It's been the best year ever and I can't wait for many more!

Year Old Cake- Not Too Shabey

Whom ever made of this odd tradition of saving ones wedding cake for an entire year and then eating it on their annivesary, was obviously Crazy! But much to my surprise it wasn't the most terrible thing I've had! It was actually quit good! This morning before Ammon had to be shipped back to South Dakota we partook in this unusually tradition along with smoothies made from Ammon's very own Vita-Mix (his most recent Birthday surprise)!
