"Monteamigue"


(monty-aim-ih-gyoo)
Amy Montague here, now Amy Potthast. I can't beleive I remembered that! But it was the first thing that came to my mind when I tried to come up with a title. It was a name that Matt Higgenson and Brian Lanier gave me freshman year when we were studying Romeo and Juliet in English.

I am really excited about this blog. I love reading about how everyone is doing. As for myself, I am living in Selma, California with my husband Matt. We will celebrate 5 years this October. Friday the 13th! We have a 6 month old daughter, Railey. She is the light of our lives right now. I do have to say that work, school and an infant are a difficult combination. Thank goodness for online classes! I work full-time at Heald College. It is a private college here in CA. We have a campus in Orgeon and Hawaii too. I am the Assistant to the Executive Director and the HR liaison. The job turned me from accounting to human resources. I'll finish with my BA in Human Resource Management in January from DeVry University.

Matt has finished his BA in Accouning and will start working on his MBA in Accounting and preparing for the CPA exam in January. He tells people he's doing it because he wants me to be able to stay home. I think he's doing it because he likes to count other people's money! lol

My parents are now living in Utah. Paragonah. Yeah, I've never heard of it either. They built a house there and are trying to talk Matt and I into building a house on their property too. I like the idea, but it is more of a long-term goal. My mom works at the Wal-Mart in Cedar City in the photo center. So, if you are ever in the neighborhood, she'd love to see some familiar faces.
