Unemployed

Guarding the valuables.

Timing is everything

In an effort to make a couple extra dollars during our stint of unemployment we took in my parent's soda cans. At 5 cents a pop it can really add up...in fact we made $75. Not bad for an hour's work. Saving the environment while helping our checking account...and it still left plenty of time for the beach. This could really lead to something.

Destiny

We just got back from Florida after an intense week of interviewing and training for our new cruise ship job (they don't tell if you got the job until the last day). Fortunately, it wasn't all in vain and we got offered an awesome position. We'll be returning to the Caribbean on the Carnival Destiny at the end of February as the new Destination Shopping Specialists...can't wait to put that on the resume! Our ports of call include: Nassau, Grand Turk, Grand Cayman, Cozumel, Jamaica, and Half Moon Cay!

Back in America

We ran into the Sansoms! Thanks Mike for taking off your gloves to snap the photo! 

Word

After 4 trams I was down for the count. 

Ms. Darcy- the little puppy Christian's parents have been taking care of. 

We've actually been home for over a week now. Somehow when I have nothing to do though, it takes forever to get anything done...including blogging. Here's a quick recap: We flew into UT so we got to visit our two favorite things there: the Eastons and Snowbird.  We then headed to Los Altos to catch Candice, Doug & Cassie before they left. Although we have no pictures to show for it- Christian rock climbed and surfed, we ate tons of amazing food with Chris and Cindy, caught up on Gossip Girl, and tried to make up on all our lost Greg and Madeleine time. We then headed to LA for a quick visit with my family. In between all of our meals out with grandparents and family we've been running tons of errands to get ready for our departure to Florida for training tomorrow.
