I was working out at the gym yesterday and something it said in the shape magazine or biking magazine is that when we are going become healthier we need to let people know. It hit me on my birthday when pretty much everything that I got involved food/treats. Now I am letting people know that I don’t only think about food. I like other things too. I haven’t had a chance to talk about Disney land it was so fun! I got to spend lots of time with the kids and Marlene and Phil. It really was a blast. I am grateful they invited me and helped me get out there. Wednesday morning we went to dinner with all the princesses, it might have rubbed off a little to much on me. When Mark dropped me off at home I always call him cowboy(cause he thinks he is one) and he called me partner, I stopped him and I said actually I would like to be called princesses. haha he looked so surprised.. But now when he text me he called me princesses occasionally, I think he is actually making fun of me. But it’s pretty funny!

As for my birthday it was a great day. I watched two episodes of the office went to lunch with some close friends. Mark took me to dinner at a Thia restaurant. It was really good. Then we went to a party that was fun, I only hung out with a few select people, but I enjoyed it. Saturday I went slip and sliding!! That was a blast. Sunday dinner and Jp and Ma’s, always fun, the funnest thing JP asked Max if he wanted to watch tv and he got so excited said yo gabba and did a circle and danced.. It was so cute. Anyways dinner was great I loved spending time with everyone here.

I just thought I would let everyone know, I got the job at state farm, it’s full time so that is great! We’ll I am off to the gym. I don’t want to be the one out of shape at the family reunion! I cannot wait to see everyone!!

The days I work I drive past jungle pita, and for the rest of the day that is all I can think about; so today I am going to blog about food. I love jungle pita I have only been there once, but it was pretty amazing. If any of you have a good receipt for humus? Send that my way!
Tuesday… Mark’s parents were in town and they invited me to go to dinner with them we went to an Italian place. It was great! They were really nice; his mom loves unrefined coconut oil!!!! Wednesday… I had an interview at State Farm, it went really well. So my friend Jake took me to Applebee’s, my salad was amazing! I get to take a drug test Friday and I need to pass a background check, then I am pretty sure I will have the job! YAY something full time, paid vacation. Sarah and I are thinking about moving in together in September, a bit closer to where I will be working if I get the job and better location for her rotations, which could be fun!
I am starting to have mixed feelings about turning 22. Next Friday I will let you know if anything changes in my life dramatically! My roomies say we can do anything I want! Now I just need to figure out what I want to do. Hmmm? Swim in our neighborhood pool, watch Enchanted, while eating some pita jungle?!? That would be an amazing day!

I went to a 80 party on Saturday, it was pretty fun. Mark looked like Joe Dirt, haha I had a hard time talking to him for the first 30 or so minutes. It was pretty fun, I have posted some of my favorite pictures.

I’ve decided that I should start blogging because I love reading about everyone else’s life.. And nobody knows what is going on with me. So, I am currently living in Mesa Arizona. My roomies are Becca, Beth and Jamie. I am living close to Sarah- and we usually try to get together once a week. I always look forward to hearing her stories. I love being close and getting to know her better. I also love having Jp and Mary Ann(MA) around, Max and Ian are so fun!! I get to watch them tomorrow night, to bad they will be sleeping. I am working at San Tan Family Medicine. I love it, everyone I work with is great. I am dating Mark Jenkins, he is very nice and we’ve been doing lots of fun activities. He is on a Cowboy kick! I hope that one works out for him. Sarah has set me up with some great friends and game nights occasionally! I have some fun friends that like to go boating and they are teaching me how to wake boarding. My friend Brad loves to take pictures so hopefully I will be able to post some fun pictures. Also my facebook page has lots of pictures, check it out!
