Happy Spring, all! FINALLY! The birds are singing, the flowers are blooming, and I am sneezing! Haha. I realize it's been a long time since I've updated, but dang it's been busy. My parents came out for my birthday. We had a wonderful time visiting and playing with them and I really wish they could have stayed longer! I'll be honest, I was hoping they would fall in love with Utah's Spring and want to move out here...that definitely didn't happen. Lol.
Aaron is turning me into a sports fan, which is weird and new for me. We went to two Real Salt Lake soccer games (again, thanks Mom and Dad! Best Christmas present ever!), and we've been following the Jazz in the NBA playoffs as well. Aaron has had to do a lot of explaining, but his enthusiasm is definitely catching. :)
Now I'm back at work full time, trying not to let the stress of it kill me...and it does try. Sometimes I wonder how much longer I can hold on, but we're soooo close to paying off our debts. Well, some of them at least. They changed my schedule so that I now have to work every Saturday (which means no Farmer's Market), and I now have Wednesdays off. What did I do yesterday with my first Wednesday off? I took a blanket and a couple books and had myself a good nap in the park. Lol! That could become the new tradition...we'll just see. Hopefully they change me back to M-F. That would be the best thing. I need weekends with my boy!
Aaron is a busy man as always, juggling his supportive husbandly duties, work, Jazz games, and basketball nights with the boys. :) Fun Fact: Aaron got stopped by a rather stern older lady in Wal-Mart who was about to lay into him for wearing a Che Guevara t-shirt when it was in fact his favorite Bob Marley shirt. Once he explained this to her she let him off the hook, but you could tell she still thought he was quite a rebel and troublemaker. Ha!
Well, that was enough for now. I'm making a creamy ginger-carrot soup to take for lunch tomorrow, and it's just about done! Fingers crossed it tastes as yummy as it smells. Love to all our friends and family!!

So, how was the soup?
It turned out absolutely delicious!!
So...you don't know me, but I used to hang out with Gundy and friends, and just came across your blog from his facebook. If it's alright with you I may start blogstalking :)
