We spent Thanksgiving at Josh and Brandi’s house with some of Zac’s family and friends.. It was nice a quiet.

We have been able to go snowboarding 4 times since Flagstaff opened. Christmas we hung out with Mary Ann’s families house. It was fun some people played games others relaxed and talked while watching TV. New Years we went to one of Zac’s friends house, Ken. It was nice of them to have everyone over.

Wedding planning is going good. We are excited for family and friends to be able to come to Arizona. Life is going good. I will try to post pictures soon!

I am doing the master cleanse.
60 oz water

I just wanted to make sure that I mentioned Savannah in my blog. Savannah is my friend, I work with her. When she gets to work, we go get water. Then we go to Subway or QT for lunch, sometimes QT is a little awkward, but I am saving money and the environment by using my soda cup more than once, yay for 10 cents. LOL

Sometimes I have her pre-read my work “green” emails before I send them, usually she says they are boring and I need to put a flower in my hair sometimes. (That is her way about saying take a chance, haha)

Also,  we were going to go to Twilight tomorrow 1 day and 1.5 hours from now. (mind-night showing) She changed her mind. Lame, so now I have a choice to make. Do I go with her and Brooke on Friday? Do I make Zac go with me tomorrow night? DO I make Liz go when she is in town? I know in the long run it really doesn’t matter, but I want to be at the movie with all the 12 year old girls that get dropped on and picked up from there mom’s. I want to make my opinion on my own. hmmmm this is tough. Tami, Becca? are you wanting a late night tomorrow? There are showings at 12:30 by my house, everywhere else is sold out, so Savannah say’s.

She and Him is a band that I have been a fan of for a while. Zooey-she’s so dreamy. Ben Gibbard is the singer for the bands Postal Service and Death Cab for Cutie. Check them out you will LOVE them. Also, the band Owl City is a lot of fun look them up.

Zooey and Ben

My mom came to visit and we had a lot of fun. Friday that she got in we wend to Davids Bridal, and she got to see my dress. Then I went and played games with some friends at work. The my mom slept over. We watch About a boy, one of my favorite. I really enjoy Hugh Grant. Saturday we spent the day together shopping and we all went out to eat dinner. Monday Mom and Sarah came over for fondue and watched Transformers, it was my dads birthday and we thought that was a good way to celebrate.

For the centerpieces I am going to use mason jars and the rest is a surprise. We have a DJ! Yay. Food we are still working on.

Family and Friends if you are coming, please shot me an email with info about if you are driving, flying and when you are planning to come. I will now try to post so pictures of everything. Computes are getting harder and harder. I don’t know if I can do it.

Last but not least. Work! Work is going so good. I love it. What more do I need to say? I enjoy where I work and who I work with.

Rachel and Zac

When I have a few extra minutes I usually do not tend to blog.

Usually when I have free time, I don’t think about my blog.  A lot has happened and I think that it is time I try to catch all my readers up, lol which will be down to zero since it’s been months.

 

What have I been up to you ask? Let me tell you.  I got engaged on March 30, 2009. We are planning on getting married March 26, 2010.

 

 

 

   

 

 
 

 

 

 I know it is crazy I have always said I didn’t want to get married or I at least wanted to be 25; well I am 23 so that is close enough I think.   Zachary David Coplan is the name of the man I want to spend the rest of my life with, why because I am in love. What is love you ask? Webster’s dictionary describes love as:

 

Love (verb)

1: to hold dear: cherish

3: to like or desire actively: take pleasure in

4: to thrive in

 

Wikipedia say’s:

Love is any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection[1] and attachment. The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure (”I loved that meal”) to intense interpersonal attraction (”I love my boyfriend”). This diversity of uses and meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.
 
 

As an abstract concept, love usually refers to a deep, ineffable feeling of tenderly caring for another person. Even this limited conception of love, however, encompasses a wealth of different feelings, from the passionate desire and intimacy of romantic love to the nonsexual emotional closeness of familial and platonic love[2] to the profound oneness or devotion of religious love.[3] Love in its various forms acts as a major facilitator of interpersonal relationships and, owing to its central psychological importance, is one of the most common themes in the creative arts.

Now that you know what Marian webster and Wikipedia say about love; I will tell you what I think love is. Love when you have a best friend that you can talk to about anything that comes to mind or when you do something stupid and you know you can tell that person and they wont think less of you, they might tease you for it and laugh with you about it, but you aren’t worried that they will think differently about you. (at least for long)  When you feel all peaceful inside when you think about the future with that person.  When you have had a long day and he lets you talk about what happened over and over again.  When he is in Lake Powell with all his friends and he has flowers to the house that you are dog sitting at, just to let you know that he is thinking about you.  When he always lets you get your favorite soda.

And on to another subject Zac and I got bikes. I will get a picture and post it so ya’ll can see what beauties they are.  I am dog sitting for the cutest little pomaranian. Bear will sits and watches TV with me and is sitting next to my feet as I type away.  

Can you belive that it has been a year since my dad passed away. I cannot.  It has also been a year since I started to work at State Farm. Have I ever expressed how grateful I am for my job. I am so grateful. I got hired about 2 months before everyone started to really lose there job, here in Phoenix. Then everyone that was applying for my position has degress Bachlors and Masters. I have neither.  Anyways I have reached my limit of what to say. I am going to bed.

Saturday night I thought I would watch Mary Ann and Jp’s boys, Max and Ian.
I get to there house they are eating dinner MA and Jp say good bye to us and they go out. About 30 minutes later Max asks where his mom is, I say she went on a date with your dad, he keeps eating. Then about 10 minutes later he asks where his dad is so I say at dinner with his mom. He looks at his food a bit confused then he looks at me and says first I eat dinner, hen I take a bath and go to bed. I laughed and said would it be ok if we watch polar express till your parents get home? he says yes. I say what if I get you a blanket to cuddle with while watching it? he said yes. The movie is almost over and I make a smoothy we all eat it. It was a little to much sugar for the boys, they were having the time of their lives when Ma and Jp got home. I felt really bad that they had so much energy and were so excited.. But it was fun I was glad I got to spend a little time with them. Ian was my favorite he was laughing so hard and trying to run so fast, but he was so tired. It was really cute. Then after Zac got off work we went and saw push. I liked it. It wasn’t Zac’s favorite. I am off to bed, work is in the morning.

I feel like I am a fairly decent employee I show up to work on time, if I am late I tell on myself, and make up the time.  I get my work load done, I help others if I can and time permits, I even stay after to make sure things are done correctly.
Today I was in class and I got an email from my boss saying that I needed to come see her before I went home for the day. My trainer Lynn say’s ‘Would you like to go see Irene right now,’ I say ‘No I will be fine’; but for those of you that know me well know that for the next 17 minutes that was all I could think about I have no idea what my trainer said.  I finally said ‘Lynn may I please go see Irene.’ Tracie laughs and say’ s ‘I knew that was all you would be able to think about’. 

I walk anxiously back to my bosses desk. I wait as she is talking to a insured on the phone.. My stomach gets tight, what have I done in the past week. I had a Team Manager on an underwriting team sit with me, did I say something wrong to him, did I do something incorrectly?

She gets off the phone . I step into her office. I sit down. she pulls out some printed papers, they were an email that I got about a week ago. I deleted the e-mail right after I got it. I was told that if I get anymore I need to report them immediately. 

My mentor at work said something to me the other day “It doesn’t matter what the sayer say’, it only matters what the hearer hears”.

Anyways, I am off to eat another corn-dog!

Yesterday at work I am in a class learning how to processes some different transactions. We went on a breaks, when I got back I ask if anyone knew how much money I could get if I started to donate plasma.. Jessica say’s “Go to Goodwill they can tell you.” I then stated “Goodwill, really?” Jess “Yeah good will they can tell you for tax prepossess.” I said “Wow I can donate plasma at goodwill, who knew.” Then Tracie commented that she had no I idea about that either.
I then looked right at Jess and I said “You are telling me I can go to goodwill and donate my PLASMA, blood plasma. Jess then got bright red and expressed “Oh I we were talking about a Plasma TV.” We all laughed out loud, then today I said a idiot comment and Jess whispers.. “still not as bad as my goodwill comment”
Haha OK it doesn’t sound as funny as it was, but it was really funny!
