CPA Squared

Just a quick note to let everyone know that Caroline found out last night she passed her final section of the CPA Exam!!!! She is now completely done with all requirements (except her application) and will be licensed sometime in January. I am so proud of her!!! And in case you are wondering, she did finish faster than me, with higher scores than me, and didn't have to retake any sections like I did. But who cares - now we're both DONE!! Congrats darling, I'm so proud of you!

Halloween Costume

Okay, I know, this is a few months late. But I still wanted to post a picture of my amazing Halloween Costume! My mom helped make the pants, and my sister-in-law provided the shirt and vest. It was a hit at work!

I just returned last Monday from a FABULOUS trip to New York City to visit my good friend Erin. I'll post pictures of my amazing trip later this week.

The first thing I want to do

Caroline just took her last (hopefully) section of the CPA exam on Saturday so there is no more studying, all day Saturday classes, or anything else - just waiting for her last two scores. So I came home from work today to find her cleaning out the fridge. After almost 6 months of studying, Saturday classes, 4 exams, countless multiple choice questions - the FIRST thing she wanted to do was clean the fridge. I will give her credit, it looks fantastic! I just thought it was funny. So, I decided to help.

Utah Football Party

We had a bunch of friends over to watch the Utah vs. TCU game on Saturday. The food and friends were awesome which almost compensated for the completely terrible game! We had a fun time - although it would have been much better had we won. Thanks everyone for coming and bringing delicious food! Bring on BYU!

When the cat came to visit...and moved in

For those of you who don't know, Caroline has a cat named Molly. When Caroline and I were dating and things started getting serious, she told me that she and her cat were a package deal. I was okay with that - I just found us an apartment that didn't allow pets. ;) Molly stayed at her parents house and we would go over to visit. Leaving Molly at Caroline's parents house gave her mom someone to pester and her dad someone to take care of. When we moved in to our house, Caroline never mentioned that she wanted to bring Molly over to live. About a month ago, Caroline's parents went out of town for a week so we brought the cat over for a visit and after Molly ran away the other night, Caroline decided she wants to keep her here. So I have been chronicling the crazy things the cat does...a few of the highlights

1. likes to drink from anywhere BUT her dedicated water bowl - such as the shower or bathtub, especially while people are in it.

2. likes to walk on my back while I'm sleeping and meow in my ear

3. likes to stick her head in glasses of water

4. likes to slide down the windshield of my car with wet paws and leave streaks right in my line of sight

5. likes to go up and down the outside edges of the stairs

A Good Laugh

Here's a good laugh for your Tuesday.

My parents are out of town this week so my cat, Molly, is staying with us. She came over on Saturday afternoon. Saturday night we had some friends over to watch the Utah game (go Utes!). Molly wanted to go into the garage so I let her out there. After our friends left I went into the garage to check on her. I opened the door, called out her name, and saw that she was sitting on top of Matt's car. She stood up when she saw me and started walking towards me. Obviously she wasn't paying attention to what she was doing, because the next thing I knew she fell through his open sunroof into his car!

I'm still laughing about it.

And yes, she isn't hurt (except for maybe her pride).

Racquetball Partner

I'm looking for a racquetball partner - I have a membership to the Rec Center in Bountiful so if you have a membership there then that would be easy. If not, its $5 each time. So if you're up for it, let me know!
