The Bek and Liss Show...coming soon!

A little teaser for your pleasure.

Our old boss use to say that when Rebek and I were together it was like the Bek and Liss show, so since we will be sharing a room for the next year, we might as well actually make a show out of it. Hope you enjoy!

Ladies and gentleman.....THE KILLERS!


For my birthday Rebekah and I went to the Hollywood Bowl to see The Killers. The Hollywood Bowl is an amazing venue. It is outside so you sit under the stars while you are watching the show. The Killers were great. Unfortunately Bek and I saw Coldplay later summer and they were amazing so sadly everything else pales in comparison. Then we drove back down to Anaheim and I slept on the floor of my new apt. I'm not officially moving in until October so my bed isn't here yet.

Update

I have a job! Well...sort of. I'm working on Mondays at my old job. It's great there! Aaaand I get to work with my 2 favorite co-workers! I think I am going to continue to work there even after I move. The commute will only be about an hour (with no traffic). I figured out that if I work 4 Mondays a month, that it is about half my rent...plus it's a sure thing, so i'm sticking with it!

I am moving to Anaheim ( where Disneyland is) at the beginning of October. I will have 3 roommates. 2 bedroom, 2 bath. The complex is brand new and it looks like a resort center. It's a little unreal. There are 3 pools, tons of flat screen TVs, cabanas near the pools that have iPod hookups and flat screen TVs in them. 2 workout areas that are open 24 hours, covered parking, fire pits and waterfalls. It's ridiculous! We have a big, brand new kitchen, and 2 balconies. It's really close to the freeway and walking distance to the Anaheim Angels baseball stadium.

LuLu's Birthday

Yes, we are those kind of dog owners that throw birthday parties for their dogs...
Any who. LuLu turned 5 this year. Mom brings her to the thrift store on Wednesdays when she works and the customers love her! She has been going since she was a puppy. We even have a few customers who come only on Wednesdays to see her. Last year was the first year we had a party for her, so we decided to have one this year also.I made fliers that we posted around the store the week before. Then I made pink Poodle cupcakes. We even had little goodies for any kids that may come in, and we have special "LuLu Birthday Specials" at the store. Sadly, this year was quite possibly the slowest day of the year, and we only had about 5 customers, but it was fun anyway! One customer even brought LuLu a little present of some chewy bones!

Home Again, Home Again.

Hellllllo!
I have been home in our newly air-conditioned house about 3 weeks now. LuLu slept with me for about the first week I was home. And by slept with me I mean that she hogs about the bottom third of my bed while I contort myself around her. I always wake up very sore the next day. But since she is so cute and full of love that I gladly take it. 

The parents are also in the middle of re-modeling the kitchen. Our house is out of control. There are basically little walkways through the house, including my bedroom. There is a walkway from the door to the bed. Our refrigerator is in the living room, along with the microwave, and that's it. We eat off paper plates and bowls, including LuLu! and use plastic utensils; since the only sinks are in the bathrooms. I've been all over the county looking at flooring, paint colors, door knobs and handles. I've had to carry our big cabinet door into about 15 stores to see how it will look with various colors and such. 

Also, I am officially moving to Anaheim, CA! Rebekah found us 2 girls who needed 2 roommates in a brand new apartment complex, we met them, and are IN! Soooo I need to get into the swing of things and start the job hunt. On a good note, I'm working at The Learning Center again on Monday nights until I move! YAY!
