Matt has been gone since the middle of April doing summer sales for Vivint (the company we both work for) which is a Home Automation and Security company. He is doing well and working hard. He initially started off in Raleigh, NC and then after a couple months moved to Birmingham. I was fortunate enough to be able to go and visit him once every three weeks (thanks Vivint for being so amazing!) so the summer has not been as horrendous as you may think. When Mattie (that's what I call him) is home he'll attend BYU where he is looking to apply to the Information System program there.
I have been working like crazy all summer. I still am training and developing the technical support department at Vivint, which fortunately has kept me extremely busy while Matt has been gone. School starts tomorrow! I attend the University of Utah and will hopefully graduate within the year with a degree in Human Development and Family Studies.
Other than the assiduous summer, life is consistently busy. I thought for some reason that after we were married, life would "slow down." Much to my dismay, it didn't. Fortunately we have learned to manage. We work lots. We laugh lots. We play lots. And then we do it all over again :) Thank goodness we have each other!
The picture is one of the last times I went out to visit Matt. More to come when he gets home!
Also, we are making a list of things that we can do from September 2011 to March 2012. If you have any suggestions feel free to send them our way!
Yay! You have a blog! Good luck keeping up with it! It's a tough business! ;) So excited for Matt to come home so we can see you guys again! Add us to your list! heatondale.blogspot.com
ReplyDeleteIt's probably just me (since it is still 5:30 am) but is that font a little hard to read :) Sounds like you two have had a busy summer.
ReplyDeleteYou've probably come up with a bunch of fun things to do already but here's another idea. Our goal for this year was to run a half marathon. Instead we ended doing a whole one and that was pretty cool. Of course we did it in the summer and it might be a bit harder to do during the school year. But if you want some other ideas we have a bucket list portion on our blog. We haven't gotten very far yet but there are a few things we've done. http://messieleavitt.blogspot.com/
Talk to ya later
