Great job!!!... but seriously.

My husband just informed me that he got the job he was hoping for! This summer, Shane will be working at Camp Williams as the Avian Specialist. (I have no idea i that is the real title for the job, but it sounds cool right!?) He'll be working with birds, taking bird surveys, identifying birds by their calls, probably be attacked by a few birds, and driving an ATV. Sounds like a fun summer for a bird lover!
So...
Great job on getting a great job!

We love you Daddy!

Epic Day

Yesterday was an epic day. Min and I finished working at the corn maze Halloween night and made a break for West Jordan. Since we arrived at my parents house at around two a.m., we woke up somewhere around noon and got ready for a private show of the leader singer of my favorite band, Thrice. That was an awesome opportunity because we got to meet him and get stuff signed.Straight after my friends and I started heading over to the Saltair where we would see the whole band perform. On the way there the back left tire blew out in the car we were in. There we were stranded on the side of the freeway with Thrice on our minds but no way to get there. Luckily, thanks to the quick thinking of Matt Baugh we got a friend of his to pick us up. At this point I was willing to ride in anything to get there, even the bed of a truck. When our ride pull up We learned that there wasn't enough room in the cab of the truck. I wasn't joking when I said I would be willing to ride in anything to get there. Dustin and I jumped in the back and and laid down trying to think of other things then the wind up our pant legs and shirts. 20 minutes or so later we pulled up. The concert was awesome and well worth all that we went through.

Life n'Stuff

Right now I'm sitting in what I call "the lab". This is where I spend up to 3 hours of my typical weekday. What do I do here? I utilize the skill we all learn at an early age, counting. --------->Heres an example of what I stare at for 3 hours

We like to call it by a fancier title here, dendrochronology. For of you who don't speak Greek that means the study of tree rings. So to cut it short and less boring, I count tree rings! Needless to say that most exciting moment of my job was when I counted 535 rings from one tree, that means it dated back to the 1450s.

All sarcasm aside it is sometimes interesting to things about the years as basically count backwards through time. I'll keep you updated on exciting events from my work life.

Min and I are having a great time in our new apartment. Most of the time we are watching X-files and doing homework there. Every now and then we test out our new kitchen gadgets and make hot chocolate or cookies which tend to always have something in the recipe that we just happen to not have, such as vanilla or baking powder but we have met our next door neighbors and those below us in search of some charity for a newly wed couple due to our lacking.

This is my life as of right now, I'm happy and ready for another new exciting experience to come my way.
