IT'S BEEN A WHILE.....

It has been a LONG time since I have posted anything.  Will has been pretty focused on his own blog (willbrawn.blogspot.com) and has kindly left this one up to me.  LOTS has been going on since this summer - and our wedding is quickly approaching!  I believe the count is down to 59 days ... but who's really counting?  We had tons of fun over the summer!  Will and I went to Waterworld for my birthday - Fourth of July was celebrated by jetskiing and a BBQ with his family - We spent a week in Washington in August (well I spent a week and Will spent four days).  While in visiting home Will took advantage of no tax in Oregon and we bought the nifty Canon camera he had been pining after for awhile.  Ever since then he has been shooting pictures non-stop - doing portraits, landscape and actually pretty much anything he finds neat.

I on the other hand have landed an awesome job at Noble Energy - and oil and gas company in downtown Denver (in the World Trade Center).  I work as an assistant/office coordinator.  I now get vacation days and holidays which is a totally new thing for me!  My job is very demanding and busy - but it sure makes my days (and weeks!) fly by.  I can't even begin to say where this summer went, because it was gone before it even started - but Fall has been here for awhile now and so far it is my favorite season here in Denver!  Another perk about my job is that we were able to enjoy BOX SEATS to the BRONCOS game a couple weeks ago.  That was so fun! 

Will and I have gotten out to enjoy the mountains a few times this season and the aspen trees are so beautiful!  I have never seen such yellows and oranges on trees as I have here.  I love it!  This is my second fall season in Colorado - and I definitely was looking forward to it. 

Our wedding plans are going well - I can't believe we're down to 8 weeks.  I am excited I get to go back home in 7.  It is really amazing how fast time is going.  We are now apartment hunting - and it is NOT fun, at all.  It is very frustrating actually.  We've been "ward shopping" and it seems like the ward we want to live in doesn't have the kind of apartments we like - and on the other hand the area we LOVE has the smallest ward we've ever been to.  There's lots of other things to consider too: like pets, utilities, parking, free wi-fi.  We want a cat bad - but the nice apartment don't allow them, of course.  Decisions, decisions.  We've decided we'll just know when its the right place - because it will feel like home.

My goal is to blog more often - so family and friends can "keep tabs" on what we've been upto.  So Enjoy!  : )
