Additional Responsibilites

Well, someone is leaving our department. In the shift of everything, I will be providing compensation support to two additional lines of business. Both are new worlds to me, so this should be a nice challenge to learn about the jobs that are utilized in these areas.

Horse Handler

During my Saturday volunteer schedule, I was able to step in and be a horse handler for a rider during a class due to a shortage of volunteers trained for that task. I lead the horse in the direction needed as the instructions for the class change. It was awesome! I so miss being around horses and especially owning my own. Maybe in the future . . . . a Palomino would still be my choice.

Three Year Anniversary

June 24, 2009 marks three years of marriage and about eight years together as a couple! We took the day off from work, slept in late and just spent quality time together which we had not been able to have due to work and school schedules. I feel really blessed to have found such a wonderful person to spend my life with and I look forward to all the exciting stuff to come in our relationship.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

Michael and I headed out to the movies late Tuesday night to catch the showing of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. It was AWESOME!!!! I think we both are planning on seeing this movie again at the theater. Also, the soundtrack has a group that did a cover of the 80's song "Burning Down the House" which I absolutely love. It is now on the myspace page!

Father's Day

Mike, Chris and Aiden

Aiden, Chris and Summer

This year we made plans to treat Mike to lunch at Cracker Barrel. Chris, Summer, Aiden, Cara, Aunt Bobbie, my husband and I all joined for the occasion. Afterwards, we headed to Mike's house to hang out for a little while. Later in the day Michael and I placed calls to Gene and Steve to send Happy Father's Day wishes and we were pleased to hear that their cards had arrived in time!

One Busy Saturday

Got up early in the morning for my volunteer work. Man it was hot! Helped out with barn work and also was a sidewalker for two riders. Came home and got ready for the pool. My husband and I stayed at the Y for a couple of hours. No sunburn this time for me! Then I came home to rest for a while before I headed out to the theater to see The Proposal. It was really funny. Afterwards, I worked on my scrapbook until I got sleepy.

Hot, Hot, and Hot

It is so HOT here! I don't even want to go outside with this humid weather.
