Colorado!

Hello! Sorry it's been awhile. I can honestly say these past two weeks have been the busiest weeks I have experienced... well right behind the week of our wedding ha! So let me give you an update on our lives...

Last thursday, I left for Denver for a marketing conference with the doctors I work for. I was a little nervous about going... I haven't been away from Mitch since we've been married and it just being my first business trip was kind of weird. But it turned out to be a lot of fun!! We were in the conference most of the time, which was very interesting, but on our time off, we were able to see a lot of Denver! And not to mention, I LOVE the mountains!! It was so amazing to get up in the morning and drink my coffee while looking at the mountains!! Before we left we looked at the weather and it was suppose to be cold and snow, well it was opposite! It was mid 60's the whole time we were there! Beautiful weather... it was actually colder here in Bentonville.

Thursday night we had got into Denver a lot later than we expected, and having to be up and ready by 6 was a little tough! But I enjoyed it and the conference ended saturday night, and we were able to spend Sunday exploring the area. We probably walked all over that town. We were out all day, but it was nice to just relax and not be stuck in a conference room all day! Since Sunday was my birthday, the doctors were going to buy me a massage/mani and pedi, but since it was Sunday, everywhere was closed. So we didn't get to do that while we were there. But I seriously work for the best doctors.. they are awesome! I loved getting to spend those four days with them and their little boy, Jude. He is the cutest little boy! If only Mitch would have been able to come.. it would have been ever better :)

We ate at some really cool restaurants and did some fun stuff. I can't wait to take Mitch back there for a weekend. We stayed right in downtown Denver at the Curtis Hotel, it was right in the middle of everything and was so nice. I attached the link.. if you ever are in the area you should check it out!

We came home late Sunday night, but almost didn't make it home. For some reason they overbooked our flight and guess who were the two that they chose at "random" to not get on the plane. Yes... it was us! We watched everyone board our plane and finally they said they had two people not show so to hurry and get on! Since we flying into XNA, we were on a tiny plane... we literally had to run out onto the runway to get on it.. no terminal or anything. Well when we got on, they ended up only having one seat. So we were trying to figure who goes and who stays, and as much as I did not want to stay in Denver by myself for another day, he was the doctor and needed to get home to see the patients. He didn't want me to stay, so finally a girl offered her seat up for us. I was so thankful! I just wanted to giver her a big hug.. ha! I was so ready to get home! I could blog on and on about my trip, but that was it in an overview!

Mitch had a good time while I was gone. I tried to get him to blog for me, but he "didn't get around to it" ha! He did a lot of stuff around the house, organized our garage, and of course played a lot of golf! He also surprised me at the airport with flowers and when I got home he gave me my birthday present! He got me a new glee cd and nike plus!! I have been wanting the nike plus so bad, and I can't wait to start running with it!! It is awesome!

Ever since I got home, I have been working like crazy! I had my first event Tuesday night and it went so good!! I was a little nervous, but I had a lot of fun and thats probably a good thing since in the month of April I thing I have about one every day! I have booked so many and will be super busy, but I guess that's a good problem to have :)

On a different note, this was also one of the hardest weeks. My best friend, Natalie, lost her cousin and it has been so hard to see her so heartbroken. Her cousin, Cody, has fought cystic fibrosis for 19 years and is now pain free! I was able to go home Wednesday night and be with her and went to the funeral today, but had to come back for work this afternoon.

Sorry I have no pictures... it has just been too crazy. But thats a little update on us! I hope y'all have had a great week and enjoy your weekend!

Quick Update!

Hello and happy Wednesday! Mitch and I have both been very busy these past few days! Mitch worked Monday, had Tuesday off and worked again today. On his day off Tuesday, he ran so many errands and got so much done for me. He was busy all day, but he did make time to come and take me to lunch! I also love when he comes in for his adjustments so we can have lunch together :)

I have been super busy at work! I think I am finally getting use to being in Fayetteville by 6:30 every morning... but working 10 1/2 days is tough at times. I do love getting my Friday's off.. it is totally worth it! Yesterday, we had a lot going on and I didn't even get home until 7:15!

Tonight I should be packing, but no I am blogging instead :) I packed a little when I got home, but didn't finish, I am regarding that decision. Now there is stuff everywhere and I hate being unorganized! I am only going into work for a couple hours tomorrow to make some calls and then we are headed to Denver. We have a conference starting Thursday and going until Saturday, but our flight to come home does not leave until Sunday night. I am hoping to find some fun things to do Sunday, especially since it will be my birthday!!

Last Monday night, Richard, Sam, Jenna, Bryan, Mitch and I all went to P.F. Changs to celebrate my birthday! We had a lot of fun and there's never a dull moment when were all together :)

Here are the girls! I am so blessed to have met these them. They have made the move so much easier for me! We all get along so well and I love our weekly get to-gathers :)

Now, Mitch's birthday isn't until next month, and I have had in mind for the past month what I was going to get him. Well, when we went to Tulsa last weekend, I thought he was going to buy them, so I had to tell him and he said he wanted them now so he could get some use out of them. I got him the new KDIII Thunder basketball shoes. He talks about them constantly and since he is playing in the church league I thought he could use them now!

Of course, like any other of his shoes... we had to special order them. We still don,t understand how they do not make basketball shoes in larger sizes. I mean I understand normal shoes, but basketball shoes! Most basketball players have larger feet.. but anyway they came in the mail today!

We weren't expecting them until next week, so when I got home and saw the package on our porch, I knew Mitch would be excited!

We are relaxing and watching American Idol right now... I really like all the contestants, but I love Scotty!! I also really like Lauren and Casey!

I hope y'all have a good rest of the week and a great weekend! I am ready to spend a few days in Colorado and I will update y'all when I get back on Monday! I may try and get Mitch to post, but I highly doubt that :)

Work, family and birthdays!

I hope y'all had a wonderful weekend! Last week I had been at my job for a month now.. It's crazy how fast it has gone! We have had a busy week/weekend, so here's a little update...

Thursday was a long day at work, but I love Thursday's! When I got off work, Mitch and I went out for chinese and then he had a basketball game. I have enjoyed watching him play and I also get to watch all the kids that come to watch their dad's play. Since Hutch plays on the team, I always get to to watch Korbyn and Kash. They are so sweet and keep me laughing. Last week, Kash talked with me for 30 min about a Disney cruise and even asked me to come with him... lucky me :)

Friday I went into work for 2 hours and I was suppose to be done by 10:30, but thats not quite what happened. Mitch told me the night before that if I drove his care to work, he would wash and clean mine out for me! So I did, and of course didn't get my office key off of my key chain! So I have a wonderful husband what woke up early on his day off to bring it to me :) So we got a little late start to our weekend, but it all worked out good.

After I was done with work, we made the drive to Tulsa! Since I am going to be in Denver next weekend over my birthday, we went to celebrate with my family this weekend! We had to make a little pit stop on our way to a coffee shop. Getting up at 5 all week, I wasn't going to make it much longer!

I have been wanting to try this place for a long time... They have one in the hospital, so Mitch talks about about how good it is and how much I would like it! And he was right... it was so good! And it held me over until we got to Tulsa!
That night, we had some people over and ordered a bunch of pizzas. It was nice to just hang out and visit with family. Also, that night... My brother found out he got his first car! Him and my dad have been looking for a while now, and my dad got this for him! He was so surprised!

And it has all these neat extra features... I actually know nothing about them, but I am told they are cool..ha! One is the red accents on the inside! I am not very excited it's a 5-speed, but I do love the color!

Saturday, Mitch and I went to the mall and he got me a pedicure for my birthday! I love getting my toes done! After that, we went and picked up my birthday cake! My favorite cake in the world is Ludger's cream cake, it is what we had at our wedding!

That night we went to Los Cabos for dinner. Mitch knows it is one of my favorite places to eat, so he took me there while we were back in Tulsa. Scott and Lane also met us there, it was nice to visit with friends! We spend the evening on the Riverwalk and just enjoyed the beautiful spring weather!!
We also made a little stop at FreshBerry, one of my favorite frozen yogurt places. You can but pints and so we got a big pint of the freshberry tart, for my birthday party on Sunday! Mitch may have got into it a little early...

They also started selling cupcakes and so Mitch bought me one in honor of my birthday!

Sunday, we had my birthday party, and it was so nice to see all my grandparents, etc. My mom also had two of my best friends show up and surprise me! Natalie and Katie came and celebrate with me.. It was so good to spend time with them, it had been way too long!

I had such a great time with my family and friends, and the weekend went by way to fast!
Another exciting thing, my parents got me an iPad for my birthday! I was not expecting it at all, but it will be so nice since I am on the computer so much and traveling for work now. I don't have it yet, but I can't wait to get it and organize it all!
We had a great weekend back in Tulsa and it had been too long since I had been home! I am only working until Wednesday this week and then we are headed to Colorado! Have a great week!
