PROVO

So it's official. Jon and I are Provo-ites...gulp!!! I finished up work in Bountiful and transfered all my cases to a new worker, my last day was June 26th. Jon finished training the new hire for his position that same day and we kissed it all good-bye. Jon started school June 23rd and is loving every second of it ;) Today was actually my first official day in the Provo office. It was a piece of cake day and I only wish it would stay this way. I only have two cases right now. I had heard a rumor that caseloads were lower in Provo but such is not the case. They're the same. Boo Hoo.

But good news!!! Jon's family goes to Lake Powell every year over the fourth of July with some family friends. We thought we weren't going to be able to go this year but since school is out Friday, and Jon can miss his study group Thursday, we decided to head up around 2AM Thursday morning to meet up with the group. Matthew and Laura are going to go down with us as well so it'll be quite the trip. We're really excited for the break and who doesn't love Lake Powell?!

New York


Jon and I finally made it to New York! Even if it was only for a few hours. We took a red eye there and the last flight of the night home! We both loved it. I got a knock purse and we saw all the big sites of Lower Manhatten in record time. We saw the Statue of Liberty (from a distance, talk about a line!), Ground Zero, China Town (cheap purses!!!!), and anything in between. The Empire State Building was our last stop. We started to go up inside until we realized there were lines the whole way up the thing and we would miss our flight! I think we made it to the second or third floor though :) It was a lot of fun either way. This ended up being our last flight together. Jon took a day trip to D.C. but I wasn't able to get out of work. We'll miss our flight benefits for sure! But I guess we have to get back to reality and on to bigger and better!

That tiny little line in between the two of us is the Statue of Liberty. :)
