Anniversary

So for our anniversary we actually slept in till noon. At 4:30 we went on a hike and than we went out to dinner at a chinnese restaurant here in logan. After that we came home and watched the "Blue Collar Comedy Tour", which was pretty funny. We didn't spend very much money but we both really enjoyed it. It was mostly just being able to spend time with each other that we enjoyed the most. We have only had four days off together since we got married; the first one we went hiking together, the second one we moved all day, the third time we spent all day cleaning our old apartment and the fourth one was our anniversary. So it is rare that we get a day off together when we can actually do what we want together.
A team lead position opened up for the building materials department at my work and my department manager and zone manager asked me if I was going to apply for it, which I took as a hint, so I applied (I was thinking about it anyway) last Tuesday. I had heard about a few other people that applied for the position and I had reasoned out that I would probably get it (no offense to them) but two of them are rather lazy and have sour additudes and the other to had just barely moved to other departments so I didn't think that the managers would want to move them again. All in all though I was still pretty nervous about it, well I found out Monday that I got the position and found out that I also got quite a hefty raise from it too which works out really well for us. I am really excited about the position and I think that I will do pretty well as team lead. Really the only thing that changes is that I will be responsible for getting more paperwork done and I officially get to boss people around, hahaha. :) I started taking up some of my duties today (my department manager, Tracy, wasn't there today so he hasn't been able to train me on all the stuff that I am supposed to be doing) and it was nice to be moving up in the company after being there for so long. So far I really like the position and I think I will continue to enjoy it.
Anyway I think that's pretty much everything so I hope you guys are all doing well, we are.
