Found Our Own Home - Moving Again! (yes, again...)

Good news, our move is only to Arvada, CO just 20 minutes away. And just to clarify, we will be renting a small Town home for the next year, perfect for just the two of us as we get back on our feet.
Here is our new address, so please update your address books with the following:

8781 Pierce Way #101
Arvada, CO 80003

We will be at this address as of next Saturday, July 28. we haven't gotten our new home phone number yet, so that will follow.

Larry has done a fabulous job recruiting his previous co-workers and friends to help us move next week as he will NOT be able to lift anything over 10 pounds. His job will be to assemble the grill we purchased today.

Rebecca employed at RegOnline

Well, my first week of work at RegOnline went smoothly and I actually had fun. My drive to Boulder from Golden is beautiful and not that bad, 45 minutes. I doubt the Customer Service position (inside sales) will be too stressful and my team seems friendly and supportive. They welcomed me Monday with a plant on my desk and great welcoming email. Note, I may have to steal my boss' biography she wrote on me. It was well written and touted my many years of experience.

The great benefits of working for RegOnline are as follows:
  • Casual dress at work (Capri's, shorts, no suits)
  • Breakfast catered every morning
  • Lunch brought in every Friday
  • Company wide social events monthly
  • Department social activities monthly

Besides my position, I've already requested to join an internal committee to help develop the company's benefits, wellness, and community involvement programs. I think my experience from open enrollment last year would be a great benefit to RegOnline.

So, if you're curious as to what the company does, please check out their website at http://www.regonline.com/. We provide an online software tool that allows event managers to create an online registration form for their event. And that's not all... Our software can processes payments, create reports for lodging & travel, finance dept., and create name badges all from one location. It's economical and easy to use! So, whether you're department is hosting a Christmas Party, you're planning a family reunion or golf tournament, or managing a large convention; RegOnline will work for you.

First Year Anniversary Celebrated

Larry and I celebrated our first year anniversary in great tradition. We had dinner at my cousin's home where we were married. It was a great summer evening, with a sunset that was full of peach and pink hues over the lake. We had our cousins Tom, Katie, and Craig there to commemorate the occasion which was grand.
We are blessed to be home where we can celebrate life with family and friends. It's good to be home!

We've learned lots about married life and one another in our year in Bend. We've learned to rely on one another and confide in each other, better than we did before we left CO. We lean on our Lord every day to help us through each challenge life brings our way and we take solice in our prayer time at the beginning and end of each day.
May the Lord bless you and keep you all close to us!

Life Lesson on Time

Take time to work - it is the price of success
Take time to think - it is the source of power
Take time to play - it is the secret to perpetual youth
Take time to read - it is the fountain of wisdom
Take time to be friendly - it is the road to happiness
Take time to dream - it is hitching your wagon to a star
Take time to love and be loved - it is the privilege of redeemed people
Take time to care for others - it is too short a day to be selfish
Take time to laugh - it is the music of the soul
Take time for God - it is life's only lasting investment.

This poem means so much more to me since Larry experienced his heart attacks. Take the time in life to accomplish all of these virtues in your life.
