SO, I have been soooo excited to carve pumpkins but just haven't had the time to. BUT, when Shawn & I saw that the pumpkins at Walmart were only $2.50 per pumpkin, I had to make time! :) Below are the pictures of the events...

Back Up!
Hello fellow bloggers & family! :) I am proud to announce that I have internet at home again! WOOHOO for me! Wow, so much has been going on in my life since I last "for real" blogged.
I am still working for the same company. We are moving to a new office building in the middle of October. I'm excited b/c it's a little closer to my apartment (not by much but whateve). We are hiring like crazy and hopefully we will get really busy in the next few months!
I'm still living in my apartment in Cottonwood. My room mate and I for lack of better words DO NOT get along. lol. I have been counting down the days until my lease is up since like April! haha. But we live and learn I guess....I should have learned a long time ago though that I just can't live with room mates. So in January my lease is up and I'm KEEPING MY FINGERS crossed that I can find a cozy basement apartment in the same area. Wherever I end up moving will be 100% mine...no random roomies! :)
I have a boyfriend, whom I have mentioned before. We are still dating. I have had a really hard time trusting another relationship. Fortunately for me, he is the most patient person EVER and has stuck with me throughout all my emotional break downs. He is in his 3rd year of electrician school and only has one more year to go. As much as I want to move back to FL or even GA, I have secretly agreed to wait for him to finish school. :) At this point, I can't see myself moving w/o him.
Let's see...I haven't been into much of the party scene since I met Shawn. We do still go out for an occational football game or birthday party but mostly we stay in and watch movies...lol. Which is why my movie collection has surely doubled since I met him! I'm tellin' ya the 4 for $20 at blockbuster is the way to go! And if UP would hurry up and come out on DVD it would really make me happy. I have also took up cooking more than ever. Shawn likes my food, thank goodness, because I'm not a great cook and he's fairly picky! My goal is to have a full spice shelf so that I don't have to constantly run to the store for a certain meal. I'm jealous of mom's! :)
OH-How on earth could I forget! My hot pink phone and I have had an off again, on again relationship. Well, thanks to mom, it is offcially OFF! Mom took me to AT&T to look at phones for an early b-day present. The AT&T girls could barely hold back their laughter when they saw my dinosaur of a phone. When I asked if they had anything simple, similar to my pink phone, the lady said "Oh, no body makes phones like that anymore...not for years!" lol. Anyway, I found a touch screen, Samsung Eternity, that I LOVE! There are tons of things I can do on it like IM, e-mail, games, etc BUT I just use text and call. I LOVE it though!
Ok, I know I'm just rambling on and on but I'm so excited to be up and running again! Hope I was able to catch ya all up on a few months.

Steppin' into the 21st Century
So Betsey has done a pretty good job at encouraging me to step into the 21st century. For some reason I have been stuck in 1999 as far as technology goes! lol. Bets gave me an itunes giftcard for Easter and I JUST figured out how to use it! Actually, I wouldn't have been able to figure it out without Shawn! lol.
I LOVE itunes! Thanks Bets! But now I'm addicting to downloading music....I'm going to need to get another job just to keep up with all the music downloads! ;)
Hope everyone is having a great weekend.

DELAYED 4th of JULY POST
Happy REALLY belated 4th of July. :) The company I work for took all the employee's and one guest to Bear Lake in Garden City, Utah. It's absolutely gorgeous! Here is a link to the cabin we stayed in.
http://cabinsatbearlake.com/papabear_photos.html?ca724380
Shawn & I drove down after work on Friday. It was pretty cool just hanging out in a HUGE/BEAUTIFUL cabin. On the 4th of July all of us went boating/jet skiing ALL day. Shawn & I got so sunburned that we skipped out on fireworks with everyone else and just sat in the AC. lol. Sunday was supposed to be another fun filled boating day but again Shawn & I weren't up to it so he took me on my first Lake fishing adventure! :) I really enjoyed how peaceful it was except for the biggest bee I have ever seen harrassing me! lol Here are some pics!
Shawn fishing..aren't the sky & lake beautiful??

Movie Marathon!
I believe it was around Easter time that I decided I was going to spend a fortune on Pre-veiwed DVD's from Blockbuster. lol. Betsey witnessed me spending I believe it was $54 bucks on movies! :) Anyway I haven't been able to break the cycle EXCEPT I normally spend only $20 bucks a month now! haha.
So on Thursday Shawn & I went to Blockbuster and both bought 3 for $20. Unfortunately for me he had to work this whole weekend. Needless to say I've been holed up in my bedroom watching movies ALL weekend! And here are the reviews:
He's Just Not That Into You
I gave it a 5 out of 5 stars! Every girl should HAVE to watch this movie!! I mean the book "He's just not that into you" is amazing and the movie just incorporated a cute story line. I'm not going to try and lie though, I totally cried or bawled (same thing right?) during a few parts of the movie! **Funny Cait fact: I hadn't washed off my make-up before watching this movie. I was crying like a little baby and went into the bathroom to blow my nose and looked in the mirror...I almost scared the crap right outta me! I had mascara ALL over my face! lol...I forgot to get waterproof mascara aparently**
The Weatherman
5 stars for confusing me to death
5 stars for making me cry
3 stars for the movie itself
I really still have NO idea what the point of this movie was. It was like a Lifetime Movie Network movie though, it wasn't really all that great but I couldn't pull myself away from it! lol. **There was no funny Cait fact during this movie**
The Stepford Wives
5 out of 5 stars
I know this movie is an older one but I've always wanted to see it and it was $3 bucks @ Walmart! (You know I had to throw in the price Leslie). The movie was awesome! If you haven't seen it you should...it's thought provoking. I LOVE the cast as well. **Funny Cait fact: I totally got scared during this movie....**
PUSH
5 outta 5 stars
Shawn came over after work so we could watch a movie together!!! :) He rented Push and it was amazing! LOVED every bit of it. I think it just came out on vid so if you haven't seen it, you should! **Again, no funny Cait fact**
Katt Williams Stand Up
5 outta 5 stars
I haven't even watched this movie yet but I already know it will be hilarious b/c the 1st one had me peeing my pants in laughter!

The Boyfriend :)
I guess it's true what they say: You'll find someone when your NOT looking! And I found a keeper. He is so amazing and he even puts up with my weird-ness. lol. Here are a few pics. (PS-His name is Shawn)
This is Shawn... :)
This is Shawn & I @ my best friend Tamina's b-day party. (I was extremely sunburned b/c I hadn't yet heard of this wonderful thing called sun screen!!! lol)
This is Shawn & I the night we took Leslie & Ed downtown SLC.
***Just in case your wondering what I am doing in my pics it's called pouty lookin' lips and I have done that pose in almost every single picture for like, IDK, 3 YEARS!! lol****

Clumsy Cait Should Be My Nickname
If you are related to me or know me well, you know that I am extremely clumsy and tend to find myself in weird situations at ALL TIMES! Recently, okay yesterday, I was on the phone at work. One of the sales guys came over to ask me a question. Well he scared the crap outta me I semi dropped the phone and hit my lip which caused my lip to start bleeding and my face to turn bright red. AND then later that evening I had brushed my teeth and I was flossing. I lost the grip on my floss and hit my lip in the SAME freakin' spot!!!! lol. Things like this only happen to ME...or so I thought. I stumbled accross this article and I had to share:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/30710797/wid/11915773?GT1=31037
Hope you enjoy and I'm totally blaming my clumsiness on the "stress of the world" or at least the swine flu! :)

Wow...It's been a while!
Alrighty, well, it's been a month or two since I've actually caught everyone up on my life!!! So here it goes...I'M AMAZING! ;)
No for real...I am still working for 6 Figure Consulting. I got semi promotion about a month and a half ago. Julie who was the compliance manager became our recruiter and I moved into her position. The company is a small enough company that both Julie and I help in eachothers departments...I like it that way! :) The economy hasn't taken a HUGE hit on our company but my commissions are slow which means I'm not making as much money as I'd like to...thank goodness I make a salary plus commissions! lol.
I went on the south beach diet lost 10lbs and now am slacking. lol Surprise, surprise! I'm still doing ok but I haven't been loosing or gaining any weight.
I have been cooking a lot! I know, I know, it's hard to believe but for real I have been. In fact as part of mom's Mother's Day gift I cooked for her. I made ginger salmon and rice. It was yummy fo sho! :)
Friend wise I'm doing great. I have given up on some friendships but have a gained a few new friends recently. Also Ashley M. is moving out here!!! I'm sooooo stoked...it will be way awesome to have a close friend out here.
Hmm...IDK what else to say?!? I'm staying outta trouble! That's always a good thing I think! lol. Still don't have much of a love life but that will all fall into place when the time is right!
Well, that's about all I can think of to update ya on. I will hopefully remember to post some pics soon!! LOVE YOU!!!!
