An update on the Lauper's!
I thought I would post a written entry to update everyone on what's going on with Adam and I. Adam is doing really well at HP. He is going on a business trip to WA this Sunday for a whole week!!!:( I wish I was going with him because I don't like being alone, but there's not much I can do. I will keep busy with Silo and my unfinished crafts:)
At the moment I have a couple crafts I am working on. I bought three large canvases because I am going to attempt to paint a picture for our living room. I don't really know what I'm doing, but my mom and sister are wonderful artists, so I'm hoping I inherited some of their skills! A couple other crafts I need to finish are my quilt (it's just about done, but I need to do the borders) and a picture board of Silo.
Well, I am still working at American Assets, but I am planning on going to school this coming January. Here is my situation...I want to get my Bachelors in Interior Design at San Diego State University, but there are complications. In order for me to get accepted at SDSU, I have to take 6 classes to enter into my desired major and a couple more generals that I didn't take at BYU-I. THe problem is that I must complete all these courses by Spring of 2008 in order to get in for Fall of 2008. 8 classes is about 24 credits, which is impossible to do in just one semester! This means I will not be admitted until Fall of 2009!!!!! So I called a counselor at SDSU and they told me to find a major that doesn't require many classes to transfer and then switch once I've been accepted. That is my plan right now. I am trying to find a major that doesn't require a lot, which will get me into the school. If anyone has any advice, please let me know. I need to be sneaky to pull this off, and trust me, I'm not good at sneaky!

Prison Break
Have any of you seen Prison Break? Well Adam and I love it! We started watching it this year and are almost done with the second season. When Adam told me about this show I was very skeptical because it's not my type of show, but now I can't take my eyes off of it! It's fascinating how he escapes from prison and is on the run! As you can see I have a picture of a man with tattoos everywhere (he is the main character) and the reason he has soo many tattoos is because it's his map to escape from prison. It's pretty neat to watch the story unfold.
As for Adam and I, we are doing well. Things haven't changed much in San Diego. We are just working and taking care of Silo. This summer we traveled quite a bit and now it's time to relax :)

For those who haven't seen our home:)
This is when we first got our furniture. We have more on the walls now and it's looking more like a home everyday!
The painting is the painting we bought in Paris...we love it! It is an authentic oil painting. It will always remind us of our wonderful trip to France!

Ok, Ok Cliff!!
Well hello everyone! I just want you all to know, especially CLIFF, that I will be posting soon. I have a lot of pictures and I probably won't write much because too much has happened. I also want you (Cliff) to know that a lot goes into a simple Post. I have to decide which pictures are the best, arrange them, write a description, and wait 15 minutes for my computer to download the pictures! So...it does take a good hour or so to post, but I will post soon, I promise!
Oh and Adam and I bought a new puppy; his name is Silo. He is a maltese-tea cup poodle mix and weighs 1.7lbs! I will post some pics soon!

Padres Game!
Last night Adam's work got us box seats for the Padres vs. Dodgers game! We aren't huge fans when it comes to baseball, but we had so much fun at the game! Our private box office had a kitchen with beautiful food and a nice restroom, which was great because we didn't have to fight the crowds. We also witnessed this:
"Trevor Hoffman already is the most prolific closer in Major League history. Now, he has recorded one of baseball's all-time great achievements: 500 saves. Hoffman did it in a 5-2 win over the Dodgers on Wednesday before a euphoric PETCO Park crowd."

Cindel's Wedding
My younger sister, Cindel, got married on May 26th. Here are some fun pictures from her wedding! She looked absolutely beautiful!
Hanging out at the Maxwell House
After Paris, Adam and I stayed with my parents until he started work. Adam had so much fun playing guitar hero with his brother-in-laws. He looked so cute as he was playing because he got so into the game! He's just my little rocker husband:)
The second picture is when we were laying down after walking down from the Eiffel Tower. We were exhausted, so we decided to take a quick nap before continuing on.
Paris!!
My goodness Paris was fun!!! I wish we stayed longer. It was like our second honeymoon...so romantic! We visited the Louvre for a couple days, went to Versailles, visited the Eiffel Tower, saw the Moulin Rouge, and much more! Email me for detail, it is just too much to type!
Graduation
Ok, I know it has taken me forever to post, but I do have some good excuses. Adam and I have been the busiest we have ever been these past couple months. We had Graduation, Paris, moving to CA, sisters wedding, and finding a job. I do apologize for not posting, even though not that many people look at my blog! Well, I am about to post a lot of pictures...enjoy!
