Keeping up this website has fallen to the wayside as my life has taken wonderful yet consuming twists and turns with increasing job duties, meeting with friends on a more regular basis, and a lovely husband to be with everyday. This morning I was thinking maybe I can start soon by just using this to write about my job, because it takes up much of my time and thoughts, and I haven’t even explained my job well to my family!
But for now, two updates. One, my dear grandpa Curt Regehr passed away a little over a week ago, and my week has been spent in mourning for him, and unfortunately while being sick, which made it an amplified emotional week for me. Grandpa left a legacy that I am blessed to know.
Second, today is the one year anniversary of Tyler asking me to marry him. What a glorious day for the both of us. Even then I didn’t know the depth of his character and the amount of integrity he has. I am a woman who has been given way more than she deserves, that’s for sure. One year ago he sent me flowers, picked me up with a dress he had bought, and took me on a walk in the forest where he had placed cards along our walkway, telling me why he wanted to marry me. When we got to the end of our path, it overlooked a river, and he had broken up twigs to ask me to be his wife. He did good.
Tyler & my brother Jess went bike riding a couple Saturdays ago, and Jess put up a link on the site his friends update with their adventures. They go riding quite often. Check out their site for more stories and pictures.
(I should have pix of me shooting a Russian sniper rifle soon…you’ll have to check back to see)
I had a dream that was really stressful, although I can’t remember most of it, but at one point Ivy sat down with me and said hesitantly, “Just so you know, (two of our good friends in real life) are trying to decide if they want to be friends with people like you and Tyler. They’ll let you know.”
I woke up feeling like I did something wrong. It was weird.
Tyler’s was a little more entertaining. He works at the Olive Garden right now, and two nights ago he had a dream that he was not only working as a waiter, but fighting in a gladitorial-type setting.
Last night he had a dream that he was waiting tables and he forgot about a man for about an hour. After walking him to his car and apologizing immensely, giving him a free meal, etc, he ran into his 7 foot, 2 inch wife who tried to stab Tyler with a screwdriver. He went on to fight this giant woman until he finally picked up her car, and slammed it on top of her over and over again…but, of course she was okay, just like in cartoons.
Mosaic got to go to the Omaha Royals Game, and I had an on-field interview, a radio interview and Christian threw out the first pitch! It was fun, except that there were about 1,000 kids there, screaming at the top of their lungs.
