Yes, we got a new entertainment center. Well, at least it's new to us. We bought it from our land lord, and we are very excited about it. Now our house is a lot more organized. That's a steal for forty dollars!!

A Red Letter Week!!
This week has been one GREAT week. Starting with the 4th of July. Provo goes all out for the 4th. The main part of Center Street in downtown was closed off for 3 days and lined with booths and carnival rides and what not. There was a big parade on the 4th and people setup camp the day before on the side of the street and camped out all night so that they would have a good seat to watch it. It was fun to watch all of the chaos. For the 4th I made red, white, and blue pancakes and we watched the parade in the morning.
That night we watched Independence Day then walked outside and watched the fireworks that were going off at BYU. I missed my family and the normal celebration I have with them, but we had a good day nonetheless.
Monday, we found out that Robert got a 10 out of 10 on his second actuarial exam. I would go into a long explanation, but to save time I will just say that that is a BIG deal, and will make his chances of him getting a job when we are back in Arizona that much easier. He takes his next exam in November, and I am sure he will do amazing on that one too.
Thursday, I GOT A JOB!!!!!
I'll be working at Taylor Maid. We sell costumes and theatrical make up, salon products, and have a small full service salon. I will be working as a sales associate, but they want me trained and working as a manager by mid-August. I am SOOOOO excited to be working again!!! I try not to think about it too much because then I start to worry that I won't be good enough and I start to freak myself out.
Friday was Robert's birthday. We had planned on going camping but decided that we didn't have the money for it right now. So instead we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows over our stove at home.
And for Robert's birthday I got him Nerf Guns. We have had a few battles with them and I think that I am the better shot :) His favorite thing to do with them is shoot them at the people on the T.V. I think he will always have a little boy in him :)
And on Saturday we got tickets from a friend for the Harry Potter midnight showing!!! I was bummed because we weren't going to be able to go because we didn't have the extra money, but now we are and our friend said we could pay him back later! YIPPEE!!!
Overall it was a great week! This Friday, after Robert gets paid, we have decided that we are going to go someplace nice to celebrate everything :) I can't wait!

My Tribute to President Hinckley
So this is a project that I started a year and a half ago and just now FINALLY finished. After President Hinckley passed and I had watched several tributes people had made to him on YouTube, I decided to make one of my own. I decided what better than the memories of kids. So these are all my nieces and nephews (at least all of the ones that can talk and would get in front of the camera) saying what they remember about President Hinckley.
