Shane's Birthday!

We celebrated Shane's 25th birthday at our house on Saturday. Our families came over and we had a great time!

Here's Shane (with Cooper) and all 25 candles. We think Cooper thought it was for him. =)

He got them all blown out! Hope you made a good wish!

Here's some of the family getting ready to see what were in Shane's presents.

A portable DVD player!

And what's a DVD player without DVD's?

Shane got a lot of cards from our families. He likes knowing that he's the favorite son, brother, uncle, and grandson. =)

Gift card to Outback from his mom and Pablo. Oh yeah!

Motorcycle gloves! Thanks Skyler!

Garage door opener for the motorcycle from my mom and dad! Sweet!

Time for cake and cupcakes!

Thanks to everyone who was able to make it! And thanks for all the great gifts!

And a special shout out to Nate for being our camera man!

Happy Birthday Shane!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Jenny and Shane.

Forever Valentines.

Shane gave me those "love puppies".

But, Oooh. What's in the box?

Rubbies and Sapphires. Thanks Baby! (He loves me.)

I made Shane heart-shaped sugar cookies. They are very yummy.

He loves the little ones.

Happy Valentine's Day baby! I love you!!!

Hail, Motors, and UOP

It hailed in Queen Creek!!!

It happened Sunday evening. We just couldn't believe it!

This picture is our sidewalk out front.

Yes. This is me... holding hail. It was cold.

So Shane and I decided to be really crazy and buy a MOTORCYCLE! We got it over the weekend. It's a Suzuki Marauder. We are excited to learn to ride.


We went and got our gear today. We think we're so cool.

Shane. He looks like he's done this before.

Jenny. She looks like she hasn't done this before.

But she's rockin' the pink!


My friend Brian, from University of Phoenix, had his going away lunch today. He and I were hired at the same time and in training together. It was so nice to see everyone again.

Jason and Brian.

Dave and Amanda. Dave was my cube neighboor when I worked at UOP.

Me and Andrew. He was also in our training group.

We went to lunch at Native New Yorker. The pizza was yummy!

It's always a good time to see friends again.

Good luck at BYU Brian!

The Job Search Continues...

*Sigh*

So I was getting pretty annoyed when I started hearing the word "economy" everywhere. It didn't seem like such a big deal here in AZ. I was wrong.

I have a story for you. It's called Jenny the Job Hopper.

Once there was a girl named Jenny. She was a Job Hopper. She worked at University of Phoenix until she was almost fired. "You can't fire me! I quit!" So what did Jenny do? She hopped jobs.

Then little Jenny worked for an apartment with old people.... until they couldn't afford Jenny anymore. So she hopped jobs again.

Now Jenny is working for a company that wants her to work for free. Little Jenny didn't like this idea... so she will continue to hop her little heart out until one day, when she will find Prince Job; the fairest job in the land.

The End
