Life in St George

Well we have been in St George for almost a month now. We are living in my parents condo and it is SO fun to have our own place for the first time since we got married. We are having fun getting to know one another again. With all the changes it almost feels like we just got married. It is hard to explain. I feel bad though because we have already made some INCREDIBLE new friends but I keep ditching out on them when they invite us to hang out because I always just want to be with Sam. I just hope that they will be my friend when I am ready to have friends again. Has anyone else ever felt this way? All I want to do in my free time is be with Sam because we can.

As for jobs, Sam's job that he had in New Mexico has a branch here in St George and he was able to be hired on here. There is A LOT of work to be done. They do things very different here in the company and it is taking a little adjusting. I got a job at Del Sol at the outlet mall. The owner is the nicest lady and we get along very well. She hired me on as the Marketing Manager. It is fun trying to figure out the area and what will work best to get people into the store. Especially since I haven't ever done marketing before. I am doing that only part time. I have been waiting to hear back from two other jobs to see if I could find a full time job until school starts. They are taking their sweet time to get back to me but I can wait.

I start school at the Paul Mitchell Academy on November 2. I am SO excited to start. I know that I have always wanted to learn and being here with an opportunity like Paul Mitchell Academy so close, I had to do it. I am still going to get my bachelors degree but the program that I am going to do doesn't start until Fall 2011. So next year around this time I will be pulling double duty with Paul Mitchell and Dixie at night. I'm sure I will be able to do it. Sam is considering going back to school and we are hoping that he will get a scholarship. I'm sure he will with his straight A's.

We are doing great. We miss our family and friends in New Mexico. I still tear up sometimes when I think about my nieces and nephew that I don't get to see everyday now. But we are happy here. We feel like we are home in this beautiful home. Maybe I will be able to post more often...
