Finally getting around to joining the rest of the world

Hello from Vegas!!

I have decided to join quite a few members of my family as well as friends and everyone else with a blog. It will be the easiest way to keep in touch with everyone. First, the typical introduction!

For those who are wondering, "Who in the world are the Roberts?" Let me clarify one thing... I was once a Whitaker.

Phillip and Emily started dating in the summer of 2005 and were married on January 6, 2007 in the Las Vegas Temple.

It was a wonderful day, but it seemed like things went wrong a lot! From a little old lady (who was helping me) falling down, then leaving my recommend in my purse (which was in the back of my parents car but they had left to get the reception ready) and having to wait for someone to pick us up from the temple to barely arrive to the reception on time.

Its all makes great stories to laugh at now.

Since then, we have been doing much of the same: work and school. Phillip is working on his Accounting degree at UNLV. He has been going full time while working full time as a customer service rep at a home building company. If things go as planned, he will be taking some time off of work to go to school full time in order to finish the degree by the fall semester of next year.

I'm currently working with the school district and am SO thankful for the summer off! I finished off the year working part-time, but when school starts up again in August, I will be back full time. I'm also going to school, still trying to get the last few generals out of the way before going into the Social Work program at UNLV. I aspire to be like my Mom, who has a 5-day WEEKEND. One day I wish to be so lucky. And I couldn't even begin to give an estimated finish date because I'm only going part time. One day I will finish.

Other than that, we're pretty much in a schedule of the same things only on different days. Hopefully I won't let this sit for a while before updating it again!
