Houston!!!

Well, the big news finally came, and everyone already knows but here it is to remember forever- GARRETT HAS A JOB!!!

And I know you may be thinking...didn't he already have a job? Haven't they been moving around the country like nut bags to work? What the freak. But no this time is the real deal. No more moving. No more crazy random hours. No more wondering if he will have a job still in a week or a month. It's real people! This is what he spent the last forever in college preparing for. This is what he spent the last 8 months applying for. This is why he flew to Dallas and Seattle.

This is his office

Garrett is now an acoustical consultant at Hoover & Keith in Houston Texas!

Yeah, both desks are his. He likes to spin around on his spiny chair and pretend to be important... Even though he really only has played that game where you have to find the differences in two pictures. But they didn't tell how many differences there are, so he was paranoid for like 3 hours just wondering if he had found them all! Real life really is stressful, huh?

And we got an apartment! We have moved no less than 10 times THIS YEAR so it's very comforting to sign a year long lease. It will be fantastic, and the commute won't be bad either!

Green is work. Red is home.

What's that, 2 minutes via longboard? Garrett will probably need some new black skate tread shoes to wear to work.

Anyway, we couldn't be more happy with our move to Texas and full time job! And Danielle said when there's hurricanes we can go to her house in the less rainy part of Texas!

Garrett and I drove up to Dallas to meet up with Sarah and her family and Danielle and her family so that we could all carpool together to Kansas. We met up with the rest of the family at the Kansas City temple cause Seth was going through the temple for the first time before he goes on his mission.

After the temple weall went back to Garrett's parents house where Trevor and Danielle blessed their baby Milo. It was a nice evening!

The next morning we all left Kansas and headed to Arkansas where we rented a lake house for the weekend. It was so nice to just hangout at the lake all weekend. The weather was perfect to just lounge around, but it could have been a little warmer for swimming. The water was pretty chilly until your body went numb and got used to it.

We had two jet skis for one of the days, so everyone had a lot of fun with them. This was my first time with jet skis so I was nervous. I rode on the back with Garrett driving first, but Garrett is to crazy for what I like so it wasn't my favorite so I didn't go on it for the rest of the day. I mean Garrett threw himself off the jet ski twice, he likes to be crazy!! I just hangout on the dock all day watching everyone else play on the jet skis and watched the kids play in the water. Garrett convinced me to get back on it right before we had to return them and I took a turn driving it. That was much better. I just like to be in control I guess.

The next couple days we all just hung out. We would go out and swim in the lake, hang out on the dock, feed the geese, try to jump on the geese, hang out in the house playing card or board games, playing pool and eating. It was a nice relaxing weekend. Here's a bunch of pictures of the fun we had....
