Family Day at the Pumpkin Patch


On Monday, I had the day off from school, and I decided to not go into work so that I could spend the day with my family at the pumpkin patch in Roca, NE. It was a little cold outside, but we braved the cold and had a fun day. Normally I don't like going to the pumpkin patch, but I'm glad Jamie made me go, because it was so much fun seeing my girls have so much fun. Oh, and we also brought our neighbor Julianne and her daughter Emmie with us. It was their first time at the pumpkin patch. I don't have a lot of time to write more detail about what went on because I'm crazy busy with school right now, so I'm posting some of the pic's from the day. Hope everyone enjoys them.


These were just a couple of the pics from the fun day. The picture of Lola (our youngest) was the only one of her not screaming. She was not in a good mood for pictures that day, but oh well. Hope everyone enjoyed seeing the pics, and have a wonderful week.

Sundt Construction


On the 27th of September, I flew down to Phoenix, AZ for the weekend for an interview with Sundt Construction Inc. They are a pretty large general contractor based out of Tempe, AZ, and they have offices in Arizona, and Southern, CA.

So on the 27th, I got on my plane, and it had been probably 13 years since I'd been on an airplane, and so I was kinda excited to go on it. The only thing I didn't like was that I had a long layover in Denver. But it was ok. The only part of the whole flying thing that I didn't like was that when I was flying back from Phoenix, to Denver, the plane just before take-off, just completely shut down and the power went off. Then it came back on after a little while, and the pilot came on the loud speaker and said that sometimes the planes are like laptop computers, and they just need to be rebooted. Now I don't know about anyone else, but that's not something I want to hear just as we are about to take off. We made it safe and sound though, so I'm over it.

Now, the reason I went down there was for a job interview, which I am happy to say that I got an offer from them. Not my ideal offer, and Jamie really doesn't want to live in Phoenix, so hopefully I get other offers with the other interviews I have, but at least I have a job, worst case scenario. The crazy part of the whole interview was that while I was down there, I started to feel sick. The worst part of it was that during the day of the interview I actually ended up have to rush off to the bathroom twice to throw-up. Even after all that, I was still able to impress them enough to give me an offer.

That is basically what is new with me, so I hope that everyone else is doing wonderfully, and may Heavenly Father bless everyone in there lives.
