Well it seems we have a ghost in our new house! Pesky thing has been changing clocks. Wich by the way does not help me when I am trying to get to work on time!!!! All the digital clocks got set ahead on the same day 1 hour. Didn't worry too much about it maybe it thought daylight savings time had ended I dont know... but then the living room clock jumped ahead as well. So did the kitchen clock.
I am convinced that it is a ghost. The house was built in 1908. So there is a good possibility that there is something or someone there. Whatever it is its giving me the Heebie Jeebies.
Why of all weeks did it have to be on Halloween? Travis has to work so I will be passing out the candy! Can't wait to see all the witches and goblins! Will post some new pictures soon!

Whoooooooooo!
I felt like a complete idiot . I went to go vote at the payless wich is right down the road. I didnt wait in line too long only about 10 minuets. Well this was my first year to vote so I was kinda exited. I was watching the other people and seeing what they were doing so when i got to the lady I didnt look like a idiot. I got my little swipe card and then it hit me.... I dont know what i am doing. The lady next to me saw my face and said you just put the card in the slot and go from there. THANK GOD SHE WAS THERE. because 2 booths became available next to eachother and we headed over. I swipe the card and a screen comes up saying the 3 party choices. and I stood there looking stupid cause I am not a part of a political party.... Again the Saint woman whisperd "click next to pick and choose." So finaly im getting a good pace going, picking and choosing then the next page hit. "do you think so and so should stay in office?" Ummm... I dont even know these people or even heard of any of them and here I am holding their career in my hands! Too much pressure. So i kinda just poked random buttons and prayed that i was hitting the right ones.
Needless to say I got it all done and got my little "I voted" sticker, and was in desprate need of a xanax.
I can see why we only do this every 4 years...

Weekend Exitement
Friday night wasnt as eventful as we thought it would be stayed home mostly. Saturday on the other hand was a complete mess, well it was great untill about 2pm. Trav and I got our pictures taken at 11. Wich was really great because we have been wanting to get them done for sometime now. We took 7 different poses and got a ton of pictures. We got them done at Walmart (yeah I know we feel a little redneckish, but they do freaking GREAT pictures plus a great price.)
We got the Silver Collection with has 6 enhancements like b&w and sepia or borders.
http://www.pictureme.com/cpi/en-US/Products/Digital/PortraitCollections/SilverCollection.htm
Then they were also running a special that you choose 1 pose that you like and get
1 10x13
1 8x10
2 5x7
5 31/2x5
16 wallets
8 keepsakes
And that was only $4.99!!!!! So thats 33 pictures for 5 bucks!
Our pictures are soposed to arrive on the 29th so as soon as I can I will post them! Most of you that read the blog will probably get some in the mail anyways! :)
Now back to the not so great part of the day...
Ash and Nick met us at the VP and Nick took Trav to work. Shirley and Dan have been a complete mess and Dan moved out. We helped him pack his things. They arnt over they just wont be living together. Going to try some marrige counceling and just kind of "date" and see what makes eachother tick. I think this is a good idea. Shirley was going to move back to Ohio, but she dosnt want to uproot Theresa ( their daughter) wich I think was a good move. So that happend, and i watched Theresa. Dad said that he was proud of me. That I'm such a good friend... made me feel alot better.
Today I went to my dads and saw him and Aaron ( my little brother) Hes the coolest kid. He is homeschooled but goes to these cool group things with other homeschooled kids and hes made some friends :) They go on awesome field trips! He also does blacksmithing wich is totaly awesome and hes really good at it. He brought some wooden swords to dads that he got at the harvest festival and we sword fought out in the front yard. I technicaly won, but hes a dirty fighter and when dad was talking to me I turned around and *BAM* he cut my arm off. LOL
Trav and Dad had a look at my car and my shock came off of my sway bar. (dont ask me what the heck that means I just wanted them to fix the ratteling that was coming from the back) So after work today Trav said he'd fix it. Then we went inside cause it was COLD out. Its only 55 out today. Dad taught me how to make a omlet today. And I did pretty darn well! If you know me you know that I have absolutly NO culenary experiance what-so-ever. So I can now make grilled cheeze and omlets on the stove. (I can bake. Just not so great with the stove top.)
I AM MOVING UP IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!

sickness
Well seems that I have finaly beaten my cold. I am back at work. Josh and Nancy have been sick and it now seems that Trav is coming down with something.
Trav and I are getting our pictures taken tomorrow. :) 10:30 am but he dosnt know it yet!
I have to go to Goodwill tonight and see if i can find a dresser. We have been useing his great grandmothers but its quite old and lord knows we will break it. I have been keeping my eye out for the past 2 weeks but have had no luck so the search continues!!!!
We wanted to get married next summer but it looks as if thats not going to happen. I think my grandparents want us to get our own place first. Im not sure. Trav is getting his license back this month. We have been looking around at places for rent just kind of keeping our eyes open so we kind of know what we want and what we dont want.
But things are going ok today. I forgot to run to the bank so I'm gonna see if sara will let me run up the road and cash my check!
See ya!

Uhhhhg
Well last night sure was interesting. Sabrina's cat needed to go to the animal hospital, so i drove her there and we stayed for 2 and a half hours. Poor kitty had a upper res. infection. So we got some Amox and he should be better soon. So we didn't get home till late, and this morning I had to take Catlin to school.
Today is horrid. I have a cold and the day keeps getting worse by the hour.
Thinking about applying to Purdue. I need benifits, I really like the job I'm at but I do need the benifits and with Trav and I only working "part-time" its not really working out trying to save money.
Trav dosnt have to work today. He likes his job at Purdue so I think he's going to stick with it for a while.
I cant wait to eat some soup and curl up with him and watch a movie and relax.
Lord, Please help me through this day. :)

About us.
I have decided to make this blog so friends and family can know what we are up to.
As of right now we are working on coming up with a wedding date. Trav and I visited my grandparents who want us to hold off untill 2010. We think we might wait but right now we arnt really sure yet. With the way the economy is going we might just have a weenie roast and call it a day :) So no big wedding. That we are sure of!
We were planning for it to be at ross camp. Its such a beautifull setting. But again its $900 for the full day, and only 400 is refundable. Too much for us. We have decided that the methodist church in fowler would look just as pretty. Now dont get me wrong. I have gone to that church my whole life and the new church is beautiful. Its just that Breanna had her wedding there and Tom is having his wedding there and everyone is expecting me to have mine there. and its going to be boring cause its all the same thing! Nothing special about it at all cause we have already seen it 3 times within a year of eachother!!!!!!!
Anyways thats just how I kinda feel about it at least, but it would be cheaper there and maybe we can do more for the reception that way or something. Plus all my family is in the Benton County area anyways.
Im sicker than a dog today. I havnt been feeling well for the past few days. I think last night really did it in for me. I had to work 9-5pm, then rush to ashlies wedding, then rush to trevors football game ( we got lost on the way) and then we had to take trevor home. Cindy was already home from working at Night Owl. (Who by the way is catering the wedding. Cindy can cook like no one I know. ) I relize I am almost out of gas so we run to oxford. FINALY we are on the way home and I'm going through oxford and a car starts following me. I get freaked out and turn into templeton and he follows. Turns out it was a cop running my plates, no big deal i wasnt doing anything illigal and he went on his merry way. Trav and I didnt get home till after midnight. We watched some T.V then I went to bed.
We decided to start looking for houses for rent we would love to get one out in the country or even otterbien but pickins seem to be slim and the cheaper ones are in lafayette. There was a cute 2 bedroom that was pretty cheap in the paper, we arnt planning on getting anything untill April. We just like skimming the market right now. We already decided we have to have atleast 2 bedrooms. That way Trav can have a "Man Room" I guess i can have the rest of the house :)
well thats all for now. I will update more another time.
