IPHONE and stuff

IPHONE:



Mikel finally qualified for his iphone. He just got it on Friday and we have been having a great time playing with it! It is quite a blast, now I can't wait until I get one!

EASTER:

Easter sunday was great we went to church and Dillon actually sat through sacrament meeting for us so that Mikel was able to listen to the talks. After church we went over to my parent's house for dinner, we ended up playing a game and then later went to a viewing for my high school french teacher's husband. After that we went back to my parent's to watch The Ultimate Gift. That was a great movie highly recommend. Then we had some turtle pie. After that it was time to get the little one back home for bed time poor little guy fell asleep during the movie thenwoke up just before we left.

WORK:

Saturday was insane at Walmart. It was incredibly busy! Especially with easter being so early this year. We were completly wiped out of candy that night, even go figure PEEPS! usually the peeps are the last to go 'cause we usually have alot of those. I think that people were going fo those 'cause there was nothing better.

DILLON:

He is doing well loves to go on trips, well anything that involves leaving the house. He is such a great kid. He does have his two top molars, which now brings the total to 10 teeth!

What a day!

I am really liking doing the topic thing so I think I am going to continue for a while.

WORK: Things have been quite crazy/insane. It's not even summer and we have been having some busy monday's, which for us is not typical at all. The Gay CSM is hoping to get into Big Brother the T.V. show he goes to LA next week for his physical exam and what not. *crosses fingers and hopes he makes it*. I would actually watch the show if he was in is as well as most of Walmart. I could see it being quite funny to watch!! Well other than the normal gossip and drama that goes on there. Things are going alright there.

MIKEL: Mikel is doing well he is selling Aflac and enjoying it! What is really nice is that he is the only one in the state that is with Aflac that speaks Spanish. He is able to get in to the Spanish-speaking areas and do well and help the other agents in the state with their spanish-speaking stuff. He really enjoys speaking to people and all.

DILLON: He is now 16 months and loving walking and everything. He loves cars, balls and trains. He is totally all boy! He loves to play with phones and tries to talk on them. He is saying many words now and loves to talk. We have taught him a sign "to eat" and he does it well and knows how to tell us what he wants! He loves his uncles, especially my little bro Parker and Mikel's brother Mark. He is so much fun and alwo likes to dance to the music!

BOOK: So in one of my last posts I told you about the Twlight series, that I highly recomend that everyone read. I finished the second book New Moon. I really enjoyed it and am now working on finishing the third book Eclipse. These books are "hard to put down" books. I love them! If you are looking for them the author is Stephenie Meyer.

Update with topics

Ok so I haven't updated for awhile because I have been quite busy. I will take is step by step and see how much I end up writing. I will be going to do this in topics.

WORK: Well there has been alot happening at work. We had a fist fight one night, I didn't see it I just heard it from a distance and the cops were called. One of the guys had a BB gun as well, that looked alot like a reall gun. Then we have had several cashiers that are really trying to rebel and not do their job. One refused service to a customer, although that is not what she said. The customer came up to the Service desk and said that that cashier called us liers. That set me off right then and there. After the customer was taken care of I talked to this cashier and told her that what she did was unacceptable. Then the rest of us CSM's discussed it alittle bit more and decided to have a meeting with the Asst. Mgr and her, to possibly coach her. When we were in the meeting she denied that she turned the customer away and insted told him that she would get help and then turned around and took her trash, giving the customer the idea that she was blowing him off. We told her that no matter what she was doing the customer always comes first! She ended up quiting a couple days later. Other than those major things happening life at Walmart is very slow and boring. We are waiting for the summer for everything to pick up!

THE BROKER: On Valentines day we went to the Broker. For those of you who live out of Colorado, The Broker is a very expensive restraunt, meaning $39 - $60 a plate! We had a great time and the best part is that we didn't have to pay a dime!! Aflac paid! It was great to have a bit of a valentines day where we didn't have to pay and we could have a some what romantic evening. ah yummy!!

AFLAC STATE THING: The night after Valetines there was a state get-together to rally all the employes for the next year! There was a catered dinner, which was decent. Then they gave out prizes and talked for a long time before finally opening up the dance floor. Mikel at that time was so tired so I asked if we could dance for a little bit he said alright. We went and requested a swing song.The first few songs they played were quite dumb, I mean how the heck are you to dance to "I'm Bringing Sexy Back" By Justin Timberlake (sorry for those who like this song)? I could figure it out at all. Finally they played the electric slide, then I think it's called the cha cha slide. Then our song came on Zut Suit Riot. I got a kick out of the fact that Mikel and I were the only ones on the dance floor!! We got applauded when were finished, I though it was hiliarious.

DILLON: Dillon is doing well. He is walking like crazy and loving fun. He loves to go outside and play with the kitty. We also finally got him a new seat thanks to his aunt! She wanted him to have a new seat so she gave us some money so we could get him a seat. It was great. It is so nice to have a new seat for him.

Anyway life is alright for now ta ta for now!

Book Review...Weekend...

I have just read the best book that I have read in a long time! It's called Twilight By Stephenie Meyer! I am not a huge fan of vampires, unlike my husband, but I actually liked the book. I though it was pretty neat to have a love story involving a vampire and his family! Several years ago I would never have picked it up but for some reason after hearing other friends review this book I decided to give it a try. It was totally worth it. So for any of you who are unsure about reading a book with vampires, this is unlike any other book you have ever read in your life. It is not very aggressive.

Life here has been quite crazy! Dillon never ceses to amaze me with all that he does! This past weekend I was invited to my SIL's baby shower. From this sister it was a huge deal for her to at least invite me. We didn't excatly get off on the right foot when Mikel and I got married. Then again her and Mikel were not getting a long very well as well, which didn't help. Anyway one of Mikel's other sisters, Rachel, invited me to carpool with her, since Mikel had to work, so I took her up on that. We had so much fun riding up and chatting. Our relationship has come a long way as well. She and I also didn't get along right away as well, but it is better now. Rachel picked me up early so that she could be there to set up for the baby shower. I had fun being with her and with the rest of his family. We were the first ones to arrive for the baby shower so we got started getting things set up, and of course while I was trying to help set up Dillon was wanting my full attention. As soon as the rest of the family arrived then the aunts were there to watch him and keep him company while I finished helping out. Dillon did well though, he kept wanting the crackers, cheese and anything else he could get his hands on! The baby shower went well though. After it was over we got things cleaned up and then Rachel, Emily (another SIL), Dillon and I were off to head home. Emily was coming home with me to watch Dillon until Mikel got home because I had to work that night as well. We were starting to get kinda short on time so Rachel stopped to get some dinner for us, that way I could get something to eat before going to work. When we got home I basically ate and ran so that I could get to work on time.

The next day, Sunday, Emily came with us to Church. Mikel was teaching our class that day so she decided to hang out with him and be with the kids. I was with Dillon in nursery, he dosen't go in quite yet but it is way boring staying out in the hallway so we let him play with the kids, and he loves it! Then after church was over we went home and put Dillon down for a nap. Mikel decided he wanted to play WoW, so Emily and I played Dancing with the Stars on the PS2. Then we woke Dillon up to go up to Lakewood to drop off Emily and see the family again. We got about 10 minutes out, when the car started over heating. so we pulled over and called my FIL, he is a machanic. He came down with Mark (BIL) to see what was going on. Before they arrieved there was a firefighter in his 20's I believe to see if her could come and help, he was worried that it was going to be a car fire, because Mikel opened the cap to the alternater (I believe that is what it is, it is the one that the coolant goes into) and it steamed. When my FIL and BIL came they were unsure what had happened but they got some more coolant and put it in and drained a little out as well. Then it worked. who knew. We heard that here was a roll over on C470, the highway were going to take, so we think that maybe it was a blessing that it over heated when it did, and not later by that crash! We still made it up to Lakeweood we just took a different route. It was quite the weekend though.

Work for me has been crazy there have been rumors going around about cashiers and other people and there are so many people that a gossipers and it is so annoying. People are so inconsiderate! I just don't get it!!

Venting and more

Work right now is becoming a real pain in the butt! For those of you who don't know I work at Walmart, and deal with many different things of course as anyone would in retail. Lately we have been dealing with a particular person who is gay in ever sence possible. What really drives me crazy about him is that he uses his gayness as a way of getting around in the company. It is really annoying. I understand that not everyone is fair even in the company, but seriously using your sexuality to get around in the company is like a woman seudicing her boss. IT'S DISGUSTING!! He is also causing problems with the cashiers and the rest of us CSM's. We just don't get how he can't get his stuff done that we can get done in about an hour or less. It is really annoying and all. Other that that works isn't too bad I do enjoy the people I work with just not so much the managemet, at least sometimes, or the drama!!

Dillon has been so much fun since he has started walking. He is everywhere and it is a blast. Mikel brought home a Monkey, with a duck beak, that makes monkey sounds they says "There's only one Aflac." When it says "Aflac" you hear the duck saying it. Also for those who are wondering why we have that and how we got it, Mikel works for Aflac and he was at a training meeting and he won the monkey and gave it to Dillon. Dillon absoutly loves the monkey he carries around with him and hugs and pats it is so cute. He is doing well and loves to learn. He is one smart little boy. He will tell us what he wants usually by pointing, and he loves the cat, even though the cat dosn't much care for him. It's all good though.
