HOUSE HUNTING

So to sum up my life so far, I was born, graduated high school in 2004(with a pretty descent GPA I might add), and got married. These were all big steps in my life that have led me to where I am today. And I will be completely honest, I LOVE my life. Getting good grades in High school provided me with the opportunity to go to a great College, the University of Utah. And by getting married, I get to spend every day of the rest of my life with my best friend, my husband Alan. While I have been married to Alan these past 3 months, I have made a lot of big decisions. Where should I work, should I go to school, etc. And now after all those questions have been answered we have a new decision to make and it involves one of these little beauties..... A home. Of course not this home. :)

I would love a home, for the reasons of no money wasted, and that it would be our home! I mean, we live in a great town home right now(renting), but it's almost like a shell that we live in. With a home, we could create an atmosphere that matched alan and I. Which I look forward too.

Well wish as LUCK as we search for the future home of the Wilburs!

MONOPOLY

3 1/2 HOURS OF MY LIFE DOWN THE DRAIN!!! Well that is how is seemed after I played my FIRST game of Monopoly ever. It started with 4 oponents; Alan, me, Sharon and Bekah. It started out going pretty well for me.. I owned 2 properties, I had collected the "parking" jack pot. But then I started to realize no one is landing on my properties, so I slowly was running out of mon-AY. And Bekah and Alan had the 2 most expensive properties. Of course, even though they weren't landing on mine, I was landing on theirs every Turn it seemed. Finally Sharon realized she and I were both out of the game it was really just between Alan and Bekah. She then came up with a deal, and I got all her property and all her money...( personally I think she was just done playing, it had already lasted 2 hours).

Well to save myself out of going bankrupt, I started to sell all my properties. I as down to just 1 property. I realized that who ever owned my property was going to win the game, since bekah and alan were pretty much Neck & Neck. So I started a bidding process, who ever would give me $5,000 could but my property. Which was what both of them had. Alan, was the one who gave me ALL his money so that he could have my propery. So I sat in the game till I had spent all my money.

The last HOUR of the game was just Bekah and Alan going back forth just givin each other money. Till finally we had a champion.... ALAN. Here is his Victory photo with bekah.
