Toe Art

I used to practice writing with my left hand, So I thought I might try writing with my  foot (but I still don't know if I am left or right footed) ..............

Now that is what I call good clean fun!!!

EVERYBODY....... YEAH!!!!!

It seems like forever ago I was sitting there with the ticket confirmation paper in my hand

WOW!!! The BSB concert........ I can't think of words to do the experience justice!!!













We thought we were pretty cool cause we got wristbands:)

I can't tell you how long I have dreamed of being there when they sang
 "Am I original" and be the one to sing back "YEAH!"
(and so on.........)  
A dream come true!

It was so FUN to go to a concert with my Besties
(Marie and Lyss) 
We were singing and dancing and jumping and yelling and throwing our hands up in the air like we didn't care,
 NO inhibitions there!
(We WERE SO CLOSE!!!! I swear I made eye contact with Nick!)
This was by FAR the best concert I have been to! I seriously felt like a little star struck 15 year old!The good news.......
I only kind of lost my voice, and I didn't start sobbing like the chick behind us :)  

Dad Day


I made him a Banana Cream Pie for Dad Day. I think he liked it :)

Close Call...............

So at work the other day, I almost died! You are probably wondering how being a teller could possibly be so high risk, but let me remind you that the Credit Union is attached to a gas station! And we all know how probable a FREAK GASOLINE ACCIDENT IS.... (jk gotta love Zoolander!) Anywho the story is Jay looked out the window and what did he see.......... smoke like a thick fog, after he pointed out the sight
 I said "IS SOMETHING ON FIRE???"  We all rushed over to the window and sure enough there was a TRUCK smokin and flamin right next to the gas station. MaryAnn told Jay to call 911 and the rest of us watched as they tried to extinquish the flames. Jay was on the phone and not saying anything so thinking that maybe he had just called the Spanish Fork Police I said  "Jay, did you dial 9-1-1" (cause it was an emergency) He looked at me like I was weird and then he hung up the phone and said they told him we needed to EVACUATE I really thought it might be the end, as I took my long walk outside to the retaining wall. Jay and I were the only ones out there for a few minutes, I guess the others didn't hear him say to evacute. Everyone eventually made it outside and we stood out there for a few minutes until the fire depo came then we ventured back inside. Once we got in the doors my Bro called me to make sure I was ok, he had drivin by and seen the scene and was sure I was freakin out..... He knows me all to well!


A Window into my Soul

I wrote this post back on 5/17/2010 I was hesitant about posting it, cause It was really late at night (or I guess you might say early in the morning) and I thought it sounded a little silly, but I rather just post it then let it sit as a draft. So here it is..........


So I must begin by saying that I have been traveling through a pretty crazy stage of life. Most of you who care enough about me to read this blog probably already know most of the details so I am not going to get into that. What I do want to say is that these past few months I have learned SO much about myself. I have done things the past few months I never thought I would be strong enough to do, but I did it. I have decided that being a Romantic is ok and I never want to loose that part of me. I have distanced myself from situations I have no control over and have found peace. I have re-discovered who my true friends are, I am happy to report that I have friends who will answer my calls even if it's been years or weeks and we can get together and it is like nothing changed. I have realized how special my siblings are to me, I am so grateful for their support and love in all that I do.

Dear People

Dear Graveyard worker at Wendy's
Did you seriously just take the order of the car in front of us and then as soon as we pull 
up you clicked off the drive up????
REALLY? 
It is 1:45am and your sign clearly states that you are open til 2am! I just wanted a Frosty! 
Your loss I liked my MickeyD's Orange Dreamsicle shake better anyways.

Sista's in AZ

So a few weeks ago my sister's and I met up in AZ (at Ronda's) and spent a week together. Amy and I drove down with our Dad and her kids. It was a pretty good drive, I slept alot of the way because I had stayed up the night before pretty late.........(but that is another story ;) ). We went up to a cabin for a couple nights and let me tell you what that was an ADVENTURE! It was the girls and Austen and Adam, Dad and Aaron watched the other kidletts. The first night we didn't have any electricity so Traci (bless her heart) stoked a fire all night long!!!!! So the next morning we had to make breakfast in the fire pit, We would have done it over the grill but of course it was out of propane!











The good news is that the electricity was turned on that afternoon, the bad news the water then got shut off..... HAHAHA yeah we were roughin' it.  So that night we made some S'mores not over the fire mind you, in the oven....................................
Dear Joe,
Thanks for letting us stay in your Cabin! And sorry we used the banister for firewood, and excuse us for not flushing! 

The ride home was a little cramped in the back seat, but Austen and I made the best of it.....


That cute little foot kicked me a lot!

Well after the Cabin Adventure we spent a couple days at Ronda's, Traci and I got to share a bed, it was fun to have a late night talk with my older sister! It felt like that  part in Pride and Prejudice (the Kiera Knightly version) after the ball where they are laying in bed talking about the gentlemen they just met. :)

Ronda took us to this cute store called Tilly's, I LOVE IT! I have even since ordered from them on-line. Thanks for the great store find Ronda! We also got to go to a school award program for Ben and a Piano recital for Sara, but the best part is there was lots of relaxin! 
Aly and Aria with their Olive Fingers

More SMo's these were made in the toaster oven at Ronda's! 

The ride back to UT was pretty good, except for that stretch of desert we drove through right after I drank 2/3's of a water bottle. I wonder when I will learn not to do that, I think they should just put port-potty's up every 30miles in area's like! It all worked out though as soon as it started coming out of my eyes we spotted a gas-station! Whew!!!

Love you Sista's I'm glad we got to get together!!!!

Dear People

Dear Bikers in the middle of the street,
Don't you know that riding your Bike on the side of the road is a HAZARD!!! Please find a nice little trail to bike on, so that I don't have to swerve into oncoming traffic.
Thanks!
