Has it seriously been almost a month since I've posted?? Wow!
So many things have happened since last post, but mainly all is well. We are just living the "dream" driving our expensive cars and sportin' our expensive clothes. *click* Oh sorry that was just a really bad episode of MTV. OH WAIT. I don't watch MTV. Anyways....
Life is good. I just applied for a new job. It would be a Fiscal Officer position with the EPSCoR Program with UAF. After all of the small clues I got relating to applying for this position I finally have, and will wait and see if anything comes of it. It would be a great promotion and about $2.50 raise which would be nice. I'd get:
1.) My own office, with DOOR, (no more "cubicle land") so I wouldn't have to worry about privacy for pumping for the kodster.
2.) Even though it's listed as "FULL TIME" they told me that if I'm the right fit for the position they are willing to work with me for part time hours and I might even be able to bring kodi to work with me or work from home. (HUGE PLUS)
3.) Very small office, so hopefully LESS drama than normal. But we all know that drama runs rampant pretty much every where. *sigh*
So we'll see. I'm trying not to get to excited if I don't get it. I told the Lord, that if I was supposed to get the position to make the way "WIDE" and open the doors for me to go or not to go. I'm so not that great at making wise decisions unless he makes it SUPER obvious.
Kodi is SO much fun. She cracks me up cause she'll be looking at me and laughing and giggling but then there are times when she gets this look on her face that looks "just like DAN"!. SERIOUS. COMPLETELY SERIOUS, like, "Seriously are you that crazy, don't embarrass me!"
HA HA. 
Such is life.
News:
We get to head down to Canada to see Dan's nephew (and mine :) ) get married in October so that will be nice. Demi wanted to come down as well and she almost had enough miles for a free ticket so she purchased the rest and is coming down with us.
Dani, being so responsible, really can't afford to come down with us because she has to work and has all sorts of bills now with her new "used" car, insurance, apartment and utilities. So Dan and I decided it would be a good idea to use my free ticket to get her to be able to come down with us. We talked with Demi and she was fine with it. So we helped Dani out and now we'll all be down there to celebrate Jeff's wedding.
I've never been to a celebration with all of us there....I think the closest we all got was Christmas of 06 in California. However, the Bartley's weren't able to make it.
So other than that everything else is just fine. I've met a great lady online her name is MariAnne and she lives in Vancouver. She is helping me as a "personal trainer" to get this baby fat off so I'm excited to actually get to meet her in person when we head on down there.
I'm 10 lbs shy (well 7 really) of where I was post - pregnancy so I'm pretty excited about that. My goal is actually 140lbs so....I'll have another 20+ lbs to go after I reach pre-pregnancy weight.
Life is good. Kind of sick today, but hoping it will pass by tomorrow for work.
Love to all.
Me

Who is that handsome man? I cannot even remember it being taken. Dani is obviously overwhelmed at the prospect of getting her picture taken with her aunt and uncle. And Demi is her usual smiling self.
It will be great to have everyone together; it will be more of the clan than I can ever remember at one place. We are looking forward to seeing everyone. So much has happened in the short few years since we last gathered.
YES! I'm so excited to be able to hang out and see everyone! We all miss you guys living so ridiculously far away and wish we could get together more often. But you know Dan, by the time I mention vacation he says "BEACH!! Let's go to Mexico..." SIGH. IT will be good to hang out.
PS. thought you'd like that picture..... :) I have a few more but the look on Dani's face is priceless!
