Life as we Know it

There are weeks in our life where not much happens but I still want to write, so I stole an idea from another blog and am trying it out tonight. Basically I am just answering some prompts, I love these prompts because they update you on our life so perfectly. Here goes nothing!

What we loved about the last week

This week has been hard because I have been working since Wednesday night and Bob was sick for two days. There were a couple of things we loved about last week though. First off, Bob passed a two week course in two days! He will be starting his machining program on Monday and couldn't be more excited. We also have been loving the beautiful weather and have been taking nightly walks together.

What we are looking forward to

Obviously we are looking forward to Bob starting his program. I am looking forward to Wednesday when I am off for seven days. We also have our anniversary pictures on Friday that we are so excited for! We bought my outfit and some props today, now we just need his outfit and a definite location. Bob and I both promised that getting pictures professionally each year would be a priority, so far so good.

What we are craving

Lately we have been craving two things- a Malibu (Dr Pepper, coconut, and vanilla) drink from Swig and an orange freeze from Atlantis Burger! When Bob passed his class we had to celebrate, I asked him what he wanted and of all things he wanted a freeze. They are so good! They are like a float but more blended together. I want one as I write this.

What we are watching

Currently I am watching: How I met your mother-just started season 9, The Following with Kevin Bacon, and I can't forget Law and Order: SVU...the latest episode is so intense watch it! Bob isn't much of a TV guy but he is really into this USA original DIG. He loves it and patently waits every Thursday for it to come on. 

We wanted to get a red box last night but wasn't sure what they had. We checked and holy moly there are so many good ones that we haven't seen or just want to see again! Dumb and dumber to, Into the Woods, Beyond the lights, Fox Catcher, and the Best of Me. Those are just a few that we will be watching this week!

What we are doing this weekend

This weekend is going to be awesome! Bob has a three day weekend, so Friday we are doing our pictures and probably going out after. Friday is also the day that the Merrill family is coming to visit!!!! I can not wait to see my sister! It's only been a month but I miss her so much! I don't know all the plans but I do know that my mom wrangled everyone together to go to a Grizzly hockey game Saturday night. I haven't been to a hockey game since high school so I am stoked. Sunday is Easter so we are doing a big family breakfast and probably hiding some eggs for Paige to find! It will probably be more fun for us but we will see. 

What else is new

We found out on Friday that Bob can't get the time off for our anniversary, so we are bummed about having to postpone that. We are doing something the weekend of our anniversary (which is in 2 weeks..so crazy!) so that will be fine for now! Other than that we are doing great, Thanks for keeping up with the Kanes!

Spring has Sprung

The weather lately has very beautiful, my favorite part is all the trees that now have flowers on them! I love that all throughout my neighborhood I see those pink and white flowered trees. This warmer weather also gets me excited for summer! If you didn't know, we the Kanes LOVE camping, shooting, hiking, and anything else outdoors. Like for instance, last week the weather was so perfect that we went fishing at Bountiful Pond. Even though we didn't catch anything-but mosquitos-we still had a great time. One of these days I will be able to fish myself and maybe show Bob what a good fisherman I am. For now I just cheer him on and do my dad's fish clap to bring in the fish. This time we took Ali with us, she had such a good time and she even got in the water a little.

Even though we love being outdoors, our second favorite hobby is going to the movies. Bob spoiled me and took me to see the new Cinderella movie. We both loved it and agreed to buy it when it came out. If you usually doubt the Disney real life remakes this one is not one to doubt. It was pretty accurate and really well done.

When Bob started his new Job in February he decided to take some time off from school to focus on his new responsibilities. Well he figures now is a good time and he starts back up on Monday! I am so proud of him, he only has one pre-requisite left and then he will be in the Machining program. This weekend he is at a Paintball event in Las Vegas, I love that he has a hobby and that he gets to go play all the time but I miss him. I get so sad when he leaves and am a little down the whole time he is gone. Luckily he is only gone for two days this time and I am working all day to pass the time.

I think that this quote is so true. Sometimes I take Mr. Kane for granted and when he leaves it helps me realize how much I love and need him. He comes back tomorrow night and that time can't come soon enough! Thanks for Keeping up with the Kanes.
