Seven Wonders

So lately I have had some time on my hands. I work but my work consists of sitting in a desk and answering the phone when it rings....lets just say it hasn't rung yet and i've been at work for 3 hours. Ha. I was thinking about the seven wonders of the world.


Giza Pyramid Complex--Cairo, Egypt
Chichen Itza--Yucatan, Mexico
Christ the Redeemer--Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
Colosseum--Rome, Italy
Great Wall of China--China
Petra--Jordan
Taj Mahal--Agra, India

I've been to one and I plan on going to all of them one day.

Just saying.

Sneak Peak :)



I thought I would post a picture from our wedding..just a little sneak peak! We haven't gotten any of our pictures back from the photographer but we have some good ones that were taken by family members. Anyway, life in Arkansas is wonderful! Justin and I had such a fun weekend. We worked on Saturday (booo) and then after work we went to a place called the Promenade. Basically, it's an outdoor mall and it was amazing. It had a lot of good stores but low and behold it had my favorite store...FOREVER 21!!! We saw it on the way out and I told Justin not to let me go in there...I would definitely buy something and right now we don't have a lot of money:) We will get payed soon and then I might venture back to Forever 21..we will see. We went to dinner at Chiles after the Promenade and then bowling after that with some friends! It felt so good to get out and do something. Work seems to keep us in a routine every day but its nice to break out and have fun on the weekends!
Being married is awesome. You get to hang out with your best friend 24/7. I'm so grateful for Justin and for all that he does for me. Yesterday we were talking about how fun it is to be together all the time and I said "Yeah Justin were like two peas in a pod", and boy did he laugh at me. Sometimes I say the most randomest things. Anyway, work awaits me. peace.

ARKANSAS!

Justin and I got married 11 days ago and it has been awesome ever since! We had a short honeymoon in Newport Beach and before we knew it we were here in Arkansas. Justin has a job selling Pest Control, and I was fortunate enough to land a job in their offices. Surprisingly, Arkansas is pretty normal. I had these assumptions of what it would be like but it beat all of my expectations. It is a really nice area and there are tons of members of the church here, so that is nice. We went to our ward for the first time on Sunday, and everyone was really nice to us! It turns out that the Relief Society President, Sister Stout, used to live in Justin's grandparent's house! How ironic! It really is nice to run into people who you know personally, or that know your family. She came over this week to visit and get to know us. Her husband is the stake president. Anyway, life in Arkansas is good! We are getting used to the humidity and the accents. Being married is so much fun! Justin and I don't get home from work until about 9 every night because Justin sells until it gets dark and I am in the office until he is done. I have made 4 meals in the crock pot in the last week! It is nice to come home to a meal already cooked and ready. Although Arkansas is great right now, we are not looking forward to the brutal summer weather ahead. Ill post again soon but for now we are just happy to be married, healthy and employed!
