Random Pictures

One thing about Jeff is that he never stops making me laugh, even when I want to be mad I can't because he is always joking around and I love that about him.

My two boys asleep on the couch. Rusty likes to sneak up when Jeff falls asleep, most of the time it was with me but now we don't let him on the couch because he is getting way too big and we don't want him to ruin the leather.

He woke up and caught me taking pictures of them, lol. He hates pictures, it is like pulling teeth to get any of him. The other night at our ward party they had everyone get pictures as couples like high school dance photos and that was so funny, he tried to bail out of line but he couldn't escape from me. haha

Can you believe how long my hair is getting? I am really starting to like it now that it is getting longer and not to mention my hubby loves it.

Time flies when you are having fun....

So much has happened since I last posted so I will catch you up on some of the events in the last few months....

I stopped working for others and started helping Jeff with our business and I am loving it. At first it was hard to get used to because I have been used to working full time since I was 16 but now I love that I can go to the movies in the middle of the day with friends and not feel bad. lol

I turned the big 25 and had a great birthday. My friend took me to lunch and then I spent the rest of the day with my hubby.

Jeff and I celebrated our 5 year anniversary this month. I honestly can't even believe it has been that long! We had a really nice night, he surprised me by taking me to a new restaurant that he found called Modern Steak and it was amazing! I am making him take me back for valentines day tonight.

Can I just say how much I loved Dear John. Me and Ashley went and saw it opening night then I was invited to go see it again with Jackie and Jasmine and of course I couldn't pass up another opportunity to see Channing Tatum!

We attended our 1st ward party and had a really good time. They played the newlywed game with some of the ward members which was sure to be a good time with lots of laughs.

Jeff is going to be turning 27 next month so we are planning a trip to either Utah or Vegas to combine my birthday, his birthday, and our anniversary into one fun field trip with some friends and I can't wait to get away for a nice vacation! I promise to take some pictures so I finally have something to post!

RANDOM PICTURES!!

EVERY TIME WE LEAVE THE HOUSE THIS IS WHAT HE DOES! IT CRACKS US UP. HE WANTS TO GO BYE BYE SO BAD!

I HAD TO PUT A PICTURE OF MYSELF TO SHOW MY WEIGHT LOSS. IT FEELS SO GOOD TO LOSE SOME EXTRA WEIGHT! I STILL HAVE A WAYS TO GO BUT IT IS A START. I WANT TO BE IN SHAPE SO WHEN I FINALLY DO GET PREGNANT HOPEFULLY I CAN LOOK GOOD!

I MUST SAY HE IS A VERY HANDSOME DOG! I AM GLAD WE HAVE HIM BECAUSE WHEN I AM FEELING DOWN ABOUT NOT HAVING KIDS YET, RUSTY IS THERE TO CHEER ME UP!

New Job!!

For those of you who don't know I started my new job last week on Monday. I had quit working for my parents the beginning of March and did not have plans to go back to work because I wanted to concentrate on getting pregnant and also helping my husband with his company but I soon became very very bored staying at home and one day I received a call from an electrician that I had become familiar with while working at Mesa Lighting, he is starting a retail store and offered me a job running it. I met with him the next day and I started work a few days later! I am so excited and can't wait until we open the doors!

So everything has been going really good we have been patching, sanding, painting and so on to get the place ready to open because it is in really bad condition, for those of you that knew where Crismon Flowers used to be on Power and Main, that is our new store, and it is a house that was built in the 40's I believe so we had a lot of work cut out for us but it is looking so good!

Well on Friday me and the owners daughter, Tori, were painting and she decided we should open the front door to let some air in, well I gave her my keys and a few seconds later I heard her call my name to come help her open the door because she said it was stuck, we had the floors refinished and the door had been getting stuck ever since, well I came in from the other room to see if I could help! I tried to push on the door and it wouldn't budge so I turned to the side and gave a little push with my butt and the next thing I knew I heard a crack!! Sure enough my butt had busted the glass on the door!! We could not believe our eyes, I thought "so much for my job"!! Well I got right on the phone and started calling companies to get an estimate on the cost of the glass, over $300 and it would take 3-7 days, of course we are supposed to be opening on Tuesday!! I called my boss and told him the cost and I started to cry because I felt so bad, luckily he is such a nice guy and made a joke about it but I still feel terrible!!

Worlds worst blogger, I know!

So sorry to everyone who has had to bug me for months to update, sometimes I just feel like since I don't have kids that my life isn't worth blogging about.

Well I will give you a run through of the last couple of months at the Arnett house!

December, had a really good Christmas and hung out with some friends on New Years eve and had a blast! Went to the doctor to try and get this baby situation figured out and haven't had a chance since to get my blood work done, we have been short handed and crazy at work lately since the market took a plunge! I had to let go of several employees which of course caused my stress levels to go through the roof! It is no fun having to tell someone with a family that they have to go!

January, had my birthday, got to see one of my good friends sweet little baby girl who was down visiting, hung out with some friends for dinner and a movie, then I was really sick for a week or so and that about wraps it up.

February, today is our fourth anniversary!! YEAH! Unfortunately I am sitting here blogging while my husband is at school ( I am really proud of him, he is working full time and taking five classes so I can't complain too much). We are going out of town for four days so I promise to try and take pictures and update in a reasonable amount of time!!!

My Grandpa Bill......

Well it is 5 in the morning and I just got the news an hour ago that turned my world upside down, the call you always hope never comes, but unfortunetately today I was awaken by a call from my mom letting me know my grandpa riggs had passed away. He had fallen out of his wheel chair two days ago while in the garden and had broken his neck, we had no idea that would lead to his passing. My grandfather was a humble, loving husband, father, grandpa, and great grandpa. He was dedicated to serving the Lord every chance he could. I am so thankful that I was able to spend some of his birthday with him the other day, I hope he knows how much myself and my husband appreciate him and love him.

I couldn't bring myself to post this yesterday because I couldn't stop crying.

My Sweet Husband!!

My cute husband decided to take me to this nice restaurant called The Compass in Phoenix. He has always driven by it but never been to eat there. It is on top of a hotel and it spins while you eat dinner, it was so amazing! We had a really nice time.

I was trying to take a picture of the view outside but I had my flash on so when I took the picture the reflection from the glass got this awesome shot of my hot husband instead!! I thought it was pretty good for not trying!

A little blurry, but you get the idea. The view was amazing!!

Again, blurry but it was the best I could do. AMAZING VIEW

I think this is the annoyed look!! He hates when I take his picture, but I couldn't help myself.

It was only fair that I had to get a photo by myself too! This way he wasn't so embarrassed.

I love this picture of him staring out the window at the beautiful view, it was so romantic.

Look at my steak, it was the best meal I have ever had, it was definitely worth the money!

If the steak wasn't good enough, look at our dessert, my mouth is watering just looking at the picture again.

I had been trying all night to get our picture together so I finally got a couple.

One of the employees saw me trying to take our picture with my timer so he graciously offered to snap a shot of us, finally!

It was an amazing dinner and a great experience, I love spending time with my husband, we always seem to have so much fun!
