How can the same amount time feel completely different. I have 5 minutes until lunch and it is forever long. But when Cory says he will rub my back for 5 minutes it is so fast!! NOT FAIR!!
Quick and short: Cory's sister Erin is here for week and it is going to be so fun. Then we go to CA on July 1-7 for yet another wedding! Go figure!
Speaking of 5 minutes, once I started blogging, the minutes sped up!! AHH!!

11 Days Is the New Record!!
Can you believe it?! Only 11 days has passed since my last blog. I am so proud of myself.
Work basically stinks right now. And I truly mean stinks!!! I work in a really old building with lots of issues and one right now is a waterfall from the ridiculous amount of precipitation occurring. It is pretty crazy. The worst part about it, the building owner said it was fixed before Memorial Day but to no avail. Additionally, they refuse to pay for a mold test, meaning we could all be poisoned right now. Maybe a little dramatic but you understand my point. So my boss has starting shopping for a new place but we do have a 2 year lease. We are giving the lease to our lawyer but seriously??
Other than that life is good. Cory is out of the field by middle July which means he will be home every night! YES! Cory's sister is coming to visit soon and then we are all driving to California for yet another wedding. That must be all I do! And of course, Cory and I are in the wedding. It wouldn't be any other way.
I have to go read my book now. By the way, everyone (probably women) should read Francine River's Mark of the Lion Series. PHENOMENAL!!

Yeah Fort Collins!
There are not many placed we visit that we don't want to go back home, but Fort Collins is one of them. Every time we are here, we miss it so much!! The funny thing is, there aren't very many people we know here since everyone has graduated college but we still miss it!! The only unfortunate thing is that when we come here for "vacation" it is not full of rest and relaxation. IT is the exact opposite! While we don't know many people anymore, we know enough to keep us planning each and every minute. Here is yesterday:
1. Get up at hotel and move all stuff to friend's house for the next 2 nights.
2. Eat breakfast with them and catch up for a few hours.
3. Meet friend from high school who drove 2.5 hours to see us and hanging out with him for the afternoon.
4. Rush back to house to get ready for the wedding. Curl my hair for 1 HOUR!!!
5. Go to wedding at 6:40.
6. Go to reception until 11:00 and move wedding presents for bride and groom.
7. At reception, leave for 45 minutes to pick up change of clothes.
8. Meet amazing friend at Lucky Joe's to catch up for a few hours.
9. Get back to house and fall asleep around 2:00 am.
10. Wake up at 7:30 :( because I am no longer a young adult who can sleep in!! FRUSTRATION!!
11. Meet in-laws for breakfast before they go back home.
12. BBQ with more friends.
13. AND THAT IS JUST THE LAST 24 hours!!
Look at me keeping up with posting. I think this is a record!

Incredibly too LONG!!!
I know that it has been forever. Please don't give too hard of a time. So, here we go!
Since January and my brother's wedding, a lot has happened. I have still been working full time but have given a raise and promotion. It officially goes into effect sometime this summer as soon as the budget is approved. I also coached volleyball for 14 year old girls. We just had our final tournament on May 10 in Kalispell, MT. Those girls profoundly affected my life and I will miss them so much. The program director of the club I coached volleyball for was offered the head coaching job for one of the two high schools here. She needed assistants and has offered me one of those positions. Now it is up to my boss to see if it can work out because it will mean time away from work. I should say it is more up to God through my boss. On top of volleyball, I have been coaching gymnastics also. I basically have very little time and that is why I have not been blogging. I never think to do it because I come home ready to sleep! Gymnastics is over though on the 23rd and that will be so nice to just come home from work and spend time with Cory.
Cory still is working in the field and is home for 5 days, gone for 5 days. However, he has starting training to switch squadrons. We don't know for sure when that will happen, but when it does, he will be home EVERY night!! YEAH!!!! I can't wait. He also was my assistant coach for my volleyball team. He developed an incredible passion for volleyball, and now he knows how to play with decent skills! It is just another thing we can do together. When he was home, he traveled with me to tournaments and supported our "girls" all day long. My girls of course thought he was HOT!! I agree!!
God is still rocking our house. Cory has started going to a Bible Study Fellowship group for men and I lead a Beth Moore study at my house for some spouses in our neighborhood. We are excited about our church and trying to figure out where God wants to use us. It has taken longer than we have wanted, but we also have been very careful to be where God wants us.
Now we are getting ready to go to Fort Collins, CO for yet another wedding. We leave May 30 and come home June 4. We will then get ready for Cory's sister and boyfriend to come visit on June 24th. Then all 4 of us leave for CA for another wedding in Santa Ana. We will be there July 2-7. Hopefully all this works even if Cory switches squadrons.
That is us in a nutshell!! I am trying to get caught up and I will try not to lapse so much!!

Finally!!
No lectures please; I know it has been a while but it has been super busy here. So, here it goes:
Cory and I hosted Christmas to my parents and my brother Brett and fiance Abby. We did Christmas on December 23rd because Cory posted on Christmas Eve. However, we got to go eat and visit with him on Christmas and ended up playing cards there for 8 hours! It was fun to see where he works when he isn't at home. Cory surprised me with a new digital camera and digital photo frame to go with it. It is awesome! Cory also got his XBox 360 which he is constantly playing in a moments of free time.
Also, I have started coaching gymnastics and volleyball. I work with level 3 and 4 in gymnastic and some of the competitive gymnasts depending on the night. Also, I have coaching the U14 volleyball team for Great Falls Volleyball Club! Therefore, my Tuesdays and Thursdays are slammed as I work from 8:00 am - 5:00 pm; head to gymnastics from 5:15-7:30; and then to volleyball from 8:00-9:30. But, it is fun thus far!!
Cory is still posting to the field; five days out and five days at home.
We are going to Las Vegas for Martin Luther King weekend because my brother is getting married; finally!! It should be a great trip and hopefully some pictures will be up so you can see the fun we had with my new digital camera!!
Love ya all and miss ya much!
