First Blog

In an attempt to keep others around us more informed on our life, Ali and I have decided to create a blog. This is my first official entry. Life is good in the Roth household. I am working for a small residential builder by the name of Camberlango Development. I started here with them in September of 2006. I am currently selling their town-home project in Springville. Although the real estate market is fairly slow in Utah right now, we have been able to sell a couple a month and in doing so have avoided all major debt collectors. Don't get me wrong, they are still collecting our debts, what I mean is we have actually been able to pay them. I decided a week or so ago that I am going to apply for an MBA program hopefully fall of this year. I am on a little bit of a tight schedule, as the application deadline is April 1st. I recently bought a book to study for the GMAT and instead of reading it right now, I am writing on this.....oh well, I am better when I procrastinate anyway.

Ali is still working for First Source Funding. She just barely is finishing a joke of a month in which she was busy every single day, often staying hours late and going in every Saturday. I think she is mostly caught up, but when you deal with peoples loans and subsequent home purchase, something always goes wrong. We recently had our one year anniversary which was a great time. She is a great wife and although I would never admit it, she knows I would be lost without her.

Taylor is doing great, he just finished basketball season, and soccer starts the first week of April. He is quite the little daddy's boy seemingly never getting enough of my attention. He is fun to hang out with, and knows more about sports than most 11 year olds, so we always have something to talk about. He is currently in the 5th grade and is growing fast.

Bennett is loving kindergarten, she is reading really well, haves fun in school and is quite the social butterfly. Her teacher says she is great in class, but wishes she would be a little less boisterous. She is starting soccer as well in April. Bennett's favorite thing is still dance. She takes dance classes every week and is getting ready for her second year end dance recital. She told me the other day she wants to be a dance teacher when she grows up, that or a golfer. I am rooting for the golfer so she can pay for my retirement.

Anyhow, this is getting to be quite large so I will write more another day.
