The happenings

I think busy is not a strong enough word to describe our lives lately. This last month has been pure chaos. We were able to celebrate our 4 year anniversary and the majority of the rest of our lives have been consumed in work. Scott has been really busy at work, and I have been REALLY busy at work. I started a new position with the company I work for. I'm still a trainer but I'm over a new department here in Price called CaptionCall. The product came out about a year ago and they've had a department in the Salt Lake office but they just brought it to Price. It's potentially a huge step for my company and they are looking to open some new offices in the coming 6 months, so it's been fun to be a part of the beginning of something that is going to be huge for the company. The busy-ness hasn't come without it's hardships. I think I've had a break down at least once a week since starting this position and I've been so grateful that Scott has been so understanding. One particular week was really rough. I was working enormous amounts of overtime so the exhaustion was overwhelming and I was having some days where the words kept running through my head "life's not fair." But I have a great husband who let me cry for a very long time on his shoulder and the next day when I got in my car to go home from work I found these...
You can't look at Gerbera daisies and not smile, right? This did make my day and seriously aren't flowers the best? I received 3 sets of flowers in a 3 week period, one set for our anniversary, an arrangement from the VP of the company I work for thanking me for working so hard, and these. Of course the ones from Scott were my favorite, but I just love how flowers can lighten a rough day.

In other news we paid off our Honda, yay! We now have 2 cars bought and paid for. If all goes well we're hoping to be out of debt by May or June (Thanks Dave Ramsey!). Scott got me a gift certificate to get the car detailed so it's all pretty. I'm just hoping the car will last us a long time.
Other than that we are doing pretty good. We're to the point of trying to decide what is next for us and we have a list of options in front of us and the hard part is deciding which is the best. We'll probably be moving from Price in the next year which will be weird. I have grown to love the city and the people but we both know that this isn't our permanent home. This is the part of being an adult I hate, making life altering decisions. But I'm so glad I have Scott by my side through it all.

Family pictures

This is a first for the Westwood family. After four years we made the effort to get some family pictures done (yes the dog is a part of our family). Maybe a little part of me was waiting for an addition to complete the photo, but alas it is not so. We had a great time with these photos and our photographer was great. Cosmo even behaved quite well. Here are some of our favorites...
