Changes!

Sorry for the lack of posting, but we have been SUPER busy for the last couple of weeks- all for good things too!
We have moved! We love our new place and it is starting to feel like home. The boxes are ALL unpacked and its been fun setting things up. We painted our bedroom (pictures will be coming...when I get around to putting them on the computer). It used to be really dark with 70's wood paneling and ORANGE floral wall paper, but now the wall paper is gone and we painted 3 of the walls white and the wall above our bed is a grape green color. It still needs a few finishing touches, like curtains....but it is MILES better than it looked before. AND to tell you about how awesome our landlords are- they were totally cool with us painting the bedroom, and even bought the primer and paint for us.
Funny story about moving in: our big shelf entertainment center thing we put our tv and all our books and stuff on couldn't fit down the stairs to get it into the apartment (we are in a basement). SO my handy husband decides that instead of just getting something else that we will be able to move in, he just saws our shelf in half then puts it back together with holes and wooden dowels once we get it inside- he's AMAZING!

I started school this past week, so I have been a little busy with that :) I'm loving school SO much. I finally have figured out what I want to get my degree in and it is awesome. I am loving the classes I am taking. I am also in a play right now for BYU, their Young Company Shakespeare traveling show. We are doing The Tempest and every Tuesday and Thursday throughout the semester we tour around and perform in different schools. it has been alot of fun getting the show ready and our first tour day is on Tuesday!

Guy has been working, and we are really looking forward to the company he works for to move their office down to Orem because it will really cut down his commute. He is also playing Ultimate Frisbee every Wednesday and Saturday and he really loves it. He even signed up for the Orem city league and that starts this Saturday and runs for two months and then they have a tournament at the end.

Dexter is over a year old now and has just been loving life. He takes alot of naps, chases all the bugs in the house, loves laser pointers and playing fetch. He is a pretty awesome pet and I can't imagine our family without him.

Other changes: We are now the proud owners of a 150cc orange and silver scooter! Its really fun and great for going around town. I love our Cadillac, but the scooter gets alot better gas mileage and costs maybe $3 to fill up the tank.

I'll probably post again soon and put up some pictures because posts without pictures are kinda boring, but until then...thanks for reading the blog. We are still in love and loving living in Provo!

Dexter Playing Fetch

Our cat plays fetch. He will play with hair bands and twisty ties. We were having some fun with him the other night stacking up all the pillows on our bed and then shooting the hair band into them so Dexter would have to jump over them. We now have video proof that our cat does in fact play fetch.

My Husband is REALLY Cute

I just want to post about one more story because my hubby is really cute and I want to brag:
So on last Thursday I was kinda sick and not feeling well and was in bed all day, until Guy calls me on his way home from work and we are just talking about our days and then he says he is going to hang up and call me right back, and this is how that conversation went:
G: Hi, is Alison there?
A (playing along): This is her.
G: Hi, this is Guy Sundwall and I was wondering if you wanted to go out with me tonight?
A: (giggling) Sure. What time to you want to pick me up?
G: How about 5:30?
A: Okay, see you then!
Then I did a mad dash to look cute for our date and Guy shows up, a few minutes late, with a bouquet of flowers to pick me up. Then we went out for dinner and a movie at the dollar theater. It was a REALLY fun date and I REALLY REALLY love my cute husband!


These are my pretty flowers! Dexter has knocked them over spilling all the water twice, and won't stop trying to eat them.
