But life gets so busy. When I stopped updating posts, it was because I got a new job at a marketing company which has taken up most of my life. I am really enjoying it though. It's a good stable job to help us get Ben through school. Speaking of which, he only has about a year an a half left at UVU, and when he is finished we finally get to move to California! What a relief it is to see light at the end of the tunnel. But we are doing well :) Here are just a few of the many pictures we have taken within the last few months or so!<br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3C6dKPq0nQs/T4CXBOv8ToI/AAAAAAAAApk/OnONvsmZQI0/s1600/photo%2B%25282%2529.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3C6dKPq0nQs/T4CXBOv8ToI/AAAAAAAAApk/OnONvsmZQI0/s400/photo%2B%25282%2529.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5728744773410115202" border="0" /></a><br />Our pride and joy, Hurley!

In case you were wondering, we got the name Hurley obviously from the skate brand. Before we got her when we were thinking about getting puppy we thought how funny it would be to name a pet after a brand as a total joke! We started naming off Volcom, Rusty, Billabong, and then we said Hurley and just fell in love with it! </div><div style="text-align: center;">She is just barely 3 months old and we have absolutely LOVED having her as a part of our family. She is a pure bread border collie and they are known to be the smartest dogs in the world. Anyways...we have started to train her to do some tricks and I am shocked at how fast she picks up on learning them! For only being 3 months old, she already knows how to sit, shake, lay down and come when we call her name! Here is a video that I took of her learning how to shake after a few hours!</div><div><div style="text-align: center;"> </div><div style="text-align: center;"><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxeGYt4vcmWsibjJuCY1jkQInrXGx_PdiyN1TSQIoRhDzwC-GEZRRCPJYKRaygbEffrElB9oJrvQ5baHS61' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div></div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187548182581105765.post-15712788036532071572011-06-23T19:42:00.000-07:002011-06-23T20:21:40.379-07:00Full time jobsWell I feel like I am not a "true blogger" because I have been awful at updating our blog. You should know that convention season is starting at my work, which means 10-12 hour work days will be normal during the summer. Kind of stinks but thats what happens when you grow up, right? Well for those of you who don't know, I am a project manager at a marketing company called Vox. I have decided to go through step by step in each job that I am in charge of.<div><br /></div><div><ol><li>Make a presentation of items that a customer is looking for and present it to them.</li><li>Figure in embroidery or screen printing if a logo is being labeled on their product</li><li>Order samples if requested, then send it to the customer</li><li>If they love the items, then mock up a proposal with the items requested</li><li>Create purchase order requests to each vendor under the job, including a PO for printing/embroidery </li><li>Fax over/email PO's to each vendor</li><li>Call and confirm that all PO's were received</li><li>Email the art (logo) to vendors explaining where it will be placed</li><li>Receive a mock up proof of what the product will look like once finished</li><li>Forward that mock up proof to the customer and wait for approval</li><li>Once approved from customer, email vendors and give approval to proceed with production</li><li>After a few days call each vendor and get tracking information for items</li><li>Create a delivery receipt for customer when delivering/shipping items</li><li>Follow up once product is received to make sure all is correct</li><li>Fill out cover sheet and turn job into the Accounting Department</li></ol><div><br /></div></div><div>I wish I were exaggerating, but that really is just the icing on the cake of each job that I take care of. On average I have about 15-20 different jobs going on at once. This is no excuse to not blog, I will try to do better! It is crazy how busy life can get once you are married! But it's a good feeling knowing you end the day accomplishing a lot and actually working hard for your money! :)</div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187548182581105765.post-47601041158731672992011-05-22T18:37:00.000-07:002011-05-22T18:49:50.155-07:001 Year Anniversary!Yesterday, May 21st Ben and I celebrated our 1 year anniversary! We have had so many good memories and learning experiences this last year. It has definitely made our marriage stronger and has given us the smallest glimps of what our future has in store for us. This past WONDERFUL year we have experienced:<div><br /></div><div><ol><li>Our first Christmas spending it together</li><li>Getting our cat Chess 1 month after being married</li><li>Going to Colorado to watch his sister perform in Mama Mia</li><li>Many California road trips</li><li>Camping up in AF canyon</li><li>Staying over night at the cabin</li><li>Moved into our first home in Provo</li><li>Lake Powell with my family</li><li>Me getting a full time job</li><li>Driving up to Idaho to get our puppy Hurley for our anniversary</li><li>Me chopping off my hair for my husband because he likes short hair</li><li>Spending numerous nights outside watching movies on a laptop</li><li>Going to Knotts Scary Farm for Halloween (Ben's FAVORITE time of year!)</li><li>Tasting Indian food for the first time and falling absolutely in love with it</li><li>Going to Vegas and playing the penny machines</li></ol><div><br /></div></div><div>That is just a small portion of this past year and our memories that we have created from what people would call "the hardest year of marriage," but what I would consider THE BEST!</div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187548182581105765.post-61304271368828797582011-05-02T17:21:00.000-07:002011-05-02T17:43:27.499-07:00Goodbye Apartments!<div style="text-align: center;">Wow it has been such crazy past few weeks! I recently got a full time job at a marketing company and I am a project manager there. Things are BUSY BUSY BUSY! It is nice being able to have a steady job that is consistent! I am always on my toes and there is never a dull moment working there. I love it though! </div><div style="text-align: center;">Aside from my new job, we have been in the process of moving! Ben's parents own a second home above the Provo Temple and for the past while he and his dad have been working so hard on clearing out the house and cleaning it up for us to be ready to move in to. It has been a lot of work considering that Ben's dad used it as a storage room! </div><div style="text-align: center;">So after all of the hard work clearing out the house, we FINALLY moved in last weekend. We aren't completely unpacked, but we are in! It will take a little while to get everything unpacked, it's exhausting!!! Anyways, we are so excited about this new adventure. Especially being in a house! We are loving it already! We are hoping to get a dog soon and I can't wait for that! </div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187548182581105765.post-71395966565846100642011-04-13T14:40:00.000-07:002011-04-13T15:57:52.077-07:00Dreaming BIG (probably too big!)<div style="text-align: center;">I'm obsessed with looking at model homes, interior design and finding ideas for my "dream home" I guess you would say.

LIFE, Candy Land, pictionary, and others were all among some of the games every kid grows up with. Monopoly was one of them! Ben, Kyle, his little shoulder monkey <span class="Apple-style-span" >(our cat Chess</span>) and I played The Beatles Monopoly last night and I had played it a few times just with Ben recently as well, AND I AM HORRIBLE! I don't know if it is just luck, but I was just doing awful! I was trying to be good with my money and buy the good property, and invest into things, but Ben just kept winning! He owned all of the orange property and if we landed on it we owed $800. I swear, every time I rolled onto his property and he took ALL my money. I felt bad because I was getting SO mad <span class="Apple-style-span" >(I apologized after of course)</span> so I decided that I wouldn't play Monopoly again because of how upset I get. Anyways, the game is fun...I'm just not good at it. But it was definitely a fun night with my two favorite people!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-s5sqYUR0RLM/TZoVkl58mmI/AAAAAAAAAmo/kPnv_h8gce4/s400/P1040267.JPG" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591805605728524898" /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Chess would NOT leave his shoulders!

We first started off with Ben's all time favorite...poker of course. We played a bunch of rounds and I was losing so I made him keep playing me until we got tied up again (<i><span class="Apple-style-span" >which took maybe an hour!</span></i>). After that we looked up on the internet how to play Craps. I quickly learned that I have the worst luck rolling dice. <span class="Apple-style-span" >AT ALL!</span> I lost <span class="Apple-style-span" ><i>EVERYTHING!</i></span> I told Ben "I have such bad luck with dice! I want to play Yahtzee!" Uh, Yahtzee is all about rolling dice and Ben started busting up. I totally forgot how much fun Yahtzee was! Although I wasn't too lucky in Yahtzee, I still had a lot of fun playing it and screaming when one of us got a good roll. I lost twice out of our three games that we played, but it was a ball! Not to mention that eating cookie dough while playing topped it off. It was such a fun Sunday playing games with my man all night! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187548182581105765.post-36967485394677123862011-03-25T11:53:00.000-07:002011-03-25T11:59:20.681-07:00One Month of Us: Day ELEVEN<div style="text-align: center;">Day 11: The people you spend most of your time with</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kroXgaeRv88/TYzl00OO_kI/AAAAAAAAAlQ/TvG4NzRu378/s1600/182682_10150398441175790_582295789_17286359_7387302_n.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-kroXgaeRv88/TYzl00OO_kI/AAAAAAAAAlQ/TvG4NzRu378/s400/182682_10150398441175790_582295789_17286359_7387302_n.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588093933194247746" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Although we do spend most of our time with our families, we have a close group of friends that we hang out with. Ben has grown up with a group of friends since high school, and some even before then. It is SO much fun when we all get together with them because almost all of them have girlfriends or are married now. It is fun because we all get along too. I always look forward to when we get together!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187548182581105765.post-51290052193682415072011-03-12T16:43:00.001-08:002011-03-14T10:47:14.615-07:00Saving Seats at the Movies<div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RgYgYmi1bMY/TX5TY_5ElsI/AAAAAAAAAlI/XYSq8FL2JqU/s400/movie_theater_7.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 268px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5583992276918769346" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium; ">Ben and I went to the movies last night to see Battle: Los Angeles</span><span class="Apple-style-span"> <span class="Apple-style-span"><span class="Apple-style-span" >[which was awesome by the way]</span> </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium; "><span class="Apple-style-span">and I know that saving seats for friends early can be a </span><span class="Apple-style-span">diff</span><span class="Apple-style-span">icult matter for some people.

I have listened to them since freshman year of high school and they are always my "go to" band if i don't know what to listen to. I'm obsessed with blasting their music in my car and singing super loud. Plus...it was the first CD Ben and I listened to when we first went out! We went to their concert when they played with Blink 182 and I just about died!

They are coming to concert in Utah and I am really hoping that we can go! </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187548182581105765.post-62500936946730894492011-03-05T12:13:00.000-08:002011-03-05T12:31:25.580-08:00California: aka HEAVEN<div style="text-align: center;">Ben and I took a trip to California last week. We probably should have waited a little until the timing was better, but a month ago my WONDERFUL husband had promised me we could go. We had a great time and it was nice to spend some time with my family in warm weather! We spent some time at the beach, downtown Disney, we went to Santa Monica with Ben's cute pregnant sister Amy and her husband Matt, and spent a lot of time with family! It was definitely a motivation for us to work hard so we can move to California as soon as we can!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-H5J-ncFIk5s/TXKcfZrNLrI/AAAAAAAAAkI/vnGQ25gB7ek/s400/IMG_0010.JPG" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 261px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580694951547449010" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-S6rwgx34sao/TXKcwpm9ygI/AAAAAAAAAkY/wUSpaYBSZD4/s400/IMG_0026.JPG" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580695247882406402" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-IHcYjJvYLSs/TXKcn-Fc3CI/AAAAAAAAAkQ/fAjRUgMrG_c/s400/IMG_0020.JPG" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 264px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5580695098760158242" /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Beautiful Huntington Beach!

So I decided what I was going to do was make him a cute candy poster and left it out for him before he left for work. When I came home, there were pretty flowers, chocolate, Valentine's Day on blu-ray and the sweetest letter from Ben! We cleaned up and went to Red Robin for dinner then came home and watched Valentines Day. It was such a nice day and the best way to celebrate!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ijh-DYG4lDA/TVx8kvo-YZI/AAAAAAAAAig/1Nq-JBmV91s/s1600/Valentines.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 299px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ijh-DYG4lDA/TVx8kvo-YZI/AAAAAAAAAig/1Nq-JBmV91s/s400/Valentines.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574467409483293074" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">What I came home to after work!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-anSfGZNsJmc/TVx84eYCdxI/AAAAAAAAAio/uzAMIrhUMOc/s400/Valentines1.jpg" style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 290px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5574467748446238482" /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Me and Ben at Red Robin</div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187548182581105765.post-47197603488245542092011-02-09T14:31:00.000-08:002011-02-16T13:20:20.280-08:00SICK weekend...<div style="text-align: center;">After the fun weekend that Ben and I had, our bodies told us to chill. We BOTH got super sick Sunday night and felt like we wanted to die. In a way, it was really nice to recognize that each of us were wanting to take care of each other as much as we could. Whatever bug was going around, it hit us, as well as many of our friends and family. Luckily it was a quick one, but it was bad! I can't speak for Ben, but I felt like I wanted to die! We both stayed home from work on Monday and just laid down the entire day, which was dumb because it gave both of us the worst headaches the next day. I had swine flu in '09, and I would definitely say I felt just as bad as then. Luckily, we are both doing much better, but I hope that everyone stays healthy and doesn't get sick while this bug hits!</div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9187548182581105765.post-6679337464606258822011-02-09T14:29:00.000-08:002011-02-10T20:25:47.065-08:00Superbowl Weekend<div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: center; ">This past weekend was a lot of fun, but also a difficult one as well. Let's start off with the fun stuff that started on Friday. Ben and I met up with some <b><span class="Apple-style-span">good friends</span></b>, Kyle and Katrina Mack and went up to Ogden to go to a coffee house and listen to some bands play. It was a lot of fun to get out of Provo/Orem for once and do something I've <i>never</i> done before. It really inspired Ben to pursue his music a lot more, which I am happy about because he is so incredibly talented. Hopefully we will see that come out more. Saturday night Ben and I went to the Provo Beach Resort and went bowling and played some games there. It was <span class="Apple-style-span">[</span>SO<span class="Apple-style-span">]</span> much fun! When we got home Ben wasn't feeling too well, so that next morning we just went to sacrament and came home so he could rest.</div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2XwbE7AynzE/TVS6A0jVvVI/AAAAAAAAAeQ/vlFvpEblG-0/s1600/P1040234.JPG"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2XwbE7AynzE/TVS6A0jVvVI/AAAAAAAAAeQ/vlFvpEblG-0/s320/P1040234.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5572283162233781586" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center; "><br /></div><div style="text-align: center; "> That evening we went to his parent's house where his whole family got together to watch the super bowl. I wasn't too fond of either team that was playing but I will admit, I didn't think Ben Roethlisberger deserved to win after being charged with Rape. So I am satisfied that the Packers won. Not to mention, I thought Fergie sounded <span class="Apple-style-span">AWFUL</span> during the halftime show. All in all...it wasn't the BEST super bowl, but it was a good excuse for family to get together!</div>Kimmy and Benhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08197607188435888931noreply@blogger.com0
