Bar~B~Q

Hey y'all! Haven't written a new post in a while so I thought I would check in. Texas is going great. Landon is doing well selling but is having alot of trouble with people's credit scores. They have to have a 600 or above to qualify for the system and he is getting around 2 or 3 non-quals a day. He is pushing through it though and hopefully will reach his goal by August! We both registered for fall semester the other night and we are going to be taking a couple of classes together. Those of you who know Landon and I well, know that I will probably be signing myself up for double the work. That's OK, I'm excited at the prospect of even seeing him for more than a couple of hours a day. This week was rather uneventful but Sunday the office had a barbeque by the pool. It was really fun to see our friends and meet some new ones! Alot of the reps I know from last year but there are quite a few I have never met.

This is some of the group. There are about 25 salesmen, 2 "saleswomen", 5 wives and and a couple of dogs.

This is Landon with our friend Jordan. Landon has an honest to goodness crush on him I think. He lived with Jordan before I came to Texas and he always tells me that Jordan is "one of his top five favorite guys," and cites his time living there as "the best time of his life." Geez... should I take offense to that?!

These are a few of the other married people out here. Our friends Lacee and Devin, and Allan and Amber. I am holding Amber's baby, Evey. She is such a cute little girl. My favorite thing about Texas in comparison to Vegas is the trees and grass. I know that sounds strange but in Vegas I would start to get depressed after awhile without any green, springy looking business around. My least favorite thing about Texas so far are the ants! They come in armies prepared to fight. I find them everywhere. One night we came home from Wal Mart and saw a big herd of them marching around on the carpet. Landon went out and bought a can of "Raid" and proceeded to spray every square inch of the apartment. What's worse... live ants all over or an ant cemetery with their little corpses everywhere? I wish I had a good answer for that! On a brighter note, I am getting much better at finding my way around. I am not so scared to leave by myself anymore. As always, we miss everyone! Until next time...
