Disclaimer: Full of excuses................... for NOT posting ; )

so it has been FOREVER since we've bothered to post anything at all. We decided to save some $ and go without internet for a while. I (emi) feeling cut off from the world, decided a world without the internet is pretty impossible and we gave in. So yes, that is an official excuse for not having posted. In other news, we've moved again and as a result had to give away our precious little Hugo who we loved sooo much :( at the time we were told that cats were not allowed under any circumstances at our new apartment.So we found him a good home with a co-worker from Lexus. Later we discovered that our "smoking man" neighbor is the equivalent to a cat lady and probably owns about 6... figures. Oh well. Among other HUGE highlights.. We were sealed in the Jordan River Temple in August!!! Finally! Pics to follow I promise! B's Grampy was awesome enough to come out and do that for us.
I will post more pics of that fab"vacation" ( I use quotation to not be sarcastic but it felt like a vacation except everyone came to us instead!) when i find them/have time to edit and upload them all.
Lets see what else is new? I left Lexus mid August to return to the notorious Charlotte Russe. This was strictly a financial decision that I hope will lighten the load for B with school etc. He is still at Lexus, running their roadside assistance program/ Delivery experience program. I do miss it there but the pay helps with not having to stress. I should mention that i returned as an assistant manager instead of the previous job as store manager but the stress is a night and day difference and we can't be greedy with needing the extra $ when being assistant pays you less stress and still a decent wage. I am totally NOT complaining!!
We love the ward we're in and B has a great calling as 2nd Councellor in the Elders Quorum. Its a mixed ward with lots of newly weds so its nice to have people our age that are going through similar trials like school, $ etc.

Ok, so thats going to be my disclaimer/hasty update post to bring everyone up to date.

XOXO,
Imelda

P.S. I wanted to share that B and I are an aunt and uncle! My sister had Mirene in early Novemember and we are sooo pumped to meet the little munchkin. She is adorable! (I didnt forget Yuka, I just wanted to have a separate little blurb for the little one!)

Emi congratulations on getting sealed in the temple! That is SO exciting! Wow, I'm amazed that you went back to CR but I'm sure being an assistant manager IS way better than the head cheese :) I'm glad to hear everything's going well for you and B!
