New Job!

Cole has been thinking he might want to get a new job for a few months now, and whenever he would look around for one, nothing really looked quite right for him. Then on Sunday night he had finally just had it with his old boss and old job and decided to really start actively looking for a new job. So, he looked and found a few that sounded really good to him. He sent in his resume on Sunday night, got a call back from one of the companies on Monday, had an interview Tuesday morning and they offered him the job Tuesday night. We talked about it, and he accepted the job this morning. If only everything in life worked like that! We really lucked out! He will be doing tech. support for a company called ParentLink. It pays well, we will have good benefits, and Cole will be doing what he is best at, being a geek! ;) He really is so excited, and so am I!

5k...what have I got myself into

Well, recently I have been trying to lose some weight before the wedding. Part of what I have been doing is running. I thought it would be fun to set a goal for myself to SOMEDAY run a marathon. It's a good long term sort of thing, like a year from now sort of thing.

Then I got to thinking that just because I can't do a whole marathon doesn't mean I can't do a shorter race sometime sooner. I got online and started searching and found a 5k(3.1miles) on the fourth of July in Provo. I thought it sounded good, and you get a free shirt,so I paid the money and registered right then!

I was so excited that I told my co-worker, who also thought it would be fun. Then she called her roommate, who thought it sounded like a BLAST! And so on. The next thing I know I have 3 more (in much better shape) girls running this 5k with me in 11 days! Oh Boy!

Now, I know that I shouldn't worry about them. And that it should just be about me finishing and all that blah blah blah....But I was already a little nervous before and this just upped my nerves that much more.

So, hopefully I will have lots of supporters at the finish line when I come dragging through. Michael and Candi and family will be here that weekend so I am hoping they will all come with me. And until then all I can do is train, and pray!

Introduction

Well I decided to start a blog about Cole and I since we are going to be planning our wedding and starting our new lives together! I figured this would be an easy way to keep everyone updated on what's going on with us. My hopes are that Cole will contribute to this as well, but realistically I don't know how often that will happen. :) Hope everyone enjoys.
