Valentine's Pictures

2010-02-12T03:19:00.007-07:00

Brad's sister always has the cutest idea's for gifts, well for Valentines gifts she thought it would be fun to get pictures then give the boys gifts with our pictures. Lucky for us her cousin is amazing at pictures and does a little photography on the side so we had her take them for us. Here are a couple of the ones she took! Thanks B your the best!

Merry Christmas!!

2010-01-10T13:30:00.004-07:00

Christmas this year was fun! Everyone came to the house and except Devin we missed him! Hope he had a good Christmas in Mexico being a good little missionary!

6 hour drive...

2009-12-19T10:53:00.003-07:00

Six hour drive just to end up at the same place you started?? Yeah that is what we did Thursday. We went to meet Amber in Burley to pick up the boys so they would come down to Utah for a few days before Amber and Nick come down for Christmas. It was a long drive but well worth it. I sure do love those boys! And lucky Brad he even got to listen to a little LFO, Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton, Nick Lachey, Pink, Spice Girls.... thanks goodness for Ipods with fun old music on it. I was having the time of my life.... Cami was laughing and Brad was putting up with it. He is a good sport most of the time! First time driving on the freeway... She was so nervous but she did a good job! Good job Cami!

Blake watching some Tiger and Friends... He is so freaking cute!

Jackson decided to be a dog and was scratching himself... he could not stop for the picture because that is not what dogs do...

$3 dollar tickets?

2009-12-19T10:25:00.005-07:00

They boys have a roommate from Minn and the Jazz were playing the Timberwolves so the boys found some $3 tickets and we all went. It was some much fun. Thanks boys what a good idea!

Driving down there! Yes, he was driving but we needed a picture! :)

P A T refused to take pictures with Rudy so we did it our way!!!

Wait till he is not looking... well it still didnt work so this is the best we got! Hey Bob, how did his hat taste?This was not the first picture the two of them took... Jared gets impatient with how many pictures we take... Hence the beautiful look on his face.

JD didnt want to take pictures either but we were getting one anyway. Not really sure what was so funny...

In the car waiting... we were at the back of the parking lot so it took us a good half hour to get out. It was a fun game but the Jazz lost and P A T made sure to remind us of that all the way home!!!

Ugly sweater anyone????

2009-12-19T10:07:00.005-07:00

For Brad's family party we decided to wear the ugliest outfits we could find... Thank you DI for dressing us!!! It was a fun night we got the funniest look and I felt like an old grandma. Not to mention we got matching necklaces and ear rings from Walmart... a bell with a huge bow on it.... Rudy even got told she looked real classy by someone... ha ha it took people a minute to realize we were not being serious with our outfits. Nice way to meet someones family for the first time right?The five of us, P A T, Rod, Rudy, Brad and I

Yes be jealous of the almost matching ugly sweaters....

Rudy and I she is so freaking cute.

Doing the white elephant game... Brad has the best part here cuz I got ahold of some hairspray... ha ha he was not to happy about it!

The beautiful picture that Rod won... Yes don't you worry it went to good use. They hung it in the front room of their house...
It was a fun night full of laughing and funny looks. Once again thanks DI for the beautiful outfits!

2009-11-12T00:34:00.006-07:00

The joys of Halloween season!!! To get ready for all the fun we went over to Ty and Carries to carve pumpkins and decorate Halloween houses.... After many many long hours the fun was over and it was well worth it!!!

Look at the focus on Ted and Ty's faces... when ever those two are around each other there is some type of competition.... However with sharp knifes and little kids involved maybe not such a good idea to give them both a knife and pumpkin at the same time....

Carrie, Ty, Riley, Kalie, Kielee, Kaden and I scooping out the insides while Ted plays camera man!

Gotta show off all the insides your digging out! She is so freaking cute and so much fun!

Trying to get kaden to eat a raw pumpkin seed the look on his face when he finally did was priceless!!! Kielee was dead set on helping Ted cut out the face she drew and was not having it any other way... Good job babe it takes skills to cut out faces like that :) Kaden and Ted showing off the scary face Kaden drew for Ted to carve!

This is where the fun all began with the houses... I think I laughed harder when Ted, Carrie and me were trying to get the base together then I had in a long time... If you will notice our house Ted put supports on there till it hardened.(don't worry he doesn't do construction for a living or anything ha ha ha) and Carries was built a little off her house has a overhang on the right side only... It was strategically built that way... for what reason you ask... I'm not really sure... cuz that is how it ends up when you are the only one building it I suppose!

Carrie getting everything ready.... Carries house with the overhang.... Our house with the supports! ha ha ha thanks Ted Kalie and Riley decorating their house...
Just getting started on the fun of decorating the Halloween houses....

I'm not really sure who was more into it Ted and I or Kaden and Kielee... thanks for the reminder Carrie that it was for the kids not us!

Hard at work....

Ted and Kaden so proud of their work so far!

Kielee putting on as much candy as possible...

And when we were done decorating you gotta finish it off can't waste anything....

So maybe we ate just a little of the black frosting.... Talk about a sugar high....

The Finished Project

So so so much fun! Thanks for the invite over Ty and Carrie....

A night out...

2009-11-12T00:10:00.003-07:00

Habits anyone??? Ted and I decided to go along with Ty, Carrie and Brad to Habits and oh was it a trip... there were so many old... like grandpa age.... guys at the bar dancing their little hearts out and some of the most interesting people I have ever seeen. As the boys were wandering somewhere Carrie and I had some dude come up to us and insist on talking to us about 2 feet from our faces... now I dont normally have a personal bubble so you know if I got uncomfortable it was bad... Now the reason for this story is due to this guy I found out something I never knew... If your from kearns you can only wear fake jewerly... REALLY!!! What he was trying to prove by telling me that Im not sure but it was all kinds of odd balls like that all night long. All in all it was a super fun night with all kinds of entertaining people watching!!!

Ted and I!

Carrie and Ty sure do love them both to death!
Brad... not really sure what is going on in this picture...

Story behind this picture... Ted saw two guys that he was questioning straight or not... so Ty decided he would help Ted answer the question.... This being one of the many ways... Thank you Ty you are so very helpful and funny!

Ted and Ty wanted to dance up on stage... what they are doing here not really sure... but if you notice the guys head in the bottom of the picture he was in love with Carrie so he was close at all times... Sorry buddy she is married!!!

Nephews!!!

2009-11-11T23:56:00.002-07:00

Sure do love when the newphews come to town to visit!!! Now if we could only get them to move here.... hmmmm any ideas??? Ted and Jackson... Im not really sure what was going on but this was like a ten minute event... and they both look really into it... hmmm

Blake loves his grandpa

And was wigging out that something was about to get his feet... It was funny he figured if he lifted them off the table Ted wouldn't be able to get them... well I got news for you bud.. if only things in life were that easy!

What a stud... and who knew a toothbrush holder would double as a toy... It works wonders!

Didn't want to go so sleep for anything so when he finally did he slept cuddled up with us... Sure do love them! And can't wait for Thanksgiving and Christmas when they will be down here!!!

Brad Paisley.....

2009-10-27T00:48:00.003-06:00

So despite all the rain, cold, drama and hiking up dirt hills in boots the Brad Paisley concert was a good time! It was packed and the grass seats were awesome! The only other concert we went to out there was Kenny Chesney and we were in actual seats, I would recommend the grass seats anyday of the week they were way better!

Brit, me, Ted and Trish

Ted and I

Nate and Tina came with us, that was a good time thanks for coming along! Lucky that Tina was in town and got to come with us!

Brit Ted and I at the end of the night! Thanks so everyone that came with us!

Swimming, camping and summer fun!

2009-10-26T23:43:00.005-06:00

Carrie and I having a blowing contest, after we spent more then thirty minutes blowing we realize there is a station right behind us to blow them up!!! About to go river rafting in the mossy water... Carrie and I threw a fit about going thanks to Ted and Ty we had an awesome time!

We finally made it.... were soaking wet had ear fulls and mouth fulls of water but was such a good time!!!

Ted and I at the camp fire....

Wrapped up in my blanket towel after swimming.

Laying out....

Hanging out at the swimming pool....

We went swimming with my family at a condo up in Park City, and they had a huge chess set that they played with it was so cool!

Me, Ted and his two kids.

Hair Coloring

2009-10-26T23:28:00.005-06:00

Gotta love the good times of coloring hair at home.

Ted getting his flavor savor colored by Trish... Hey Trish, do you wanna touch his lip??

Gotta get the eyelashes colored good and close.
Brad straightening his hair before coloring it.

And we got bored waiting for the boys hair to be done.. so we did what we do best, take pictures of ourselves. The beauty of goin to school to do hair you get to do hair late at night and at home. Good times to be had by all!

Summer time fun!

2009-09-02T21:28:00.006-06:00

I love summer time... lots and lots of boating which I had lots of pictures of till someone broke into Trish's car and stole her camera so now I dont have to good ones of me getting up on the wake board for the first time ever... Thanks Dustin for getting me up!!!

Then it was hair cut time but Jackson is a barginer and wouldnt let me cut his hair till he got to cut mine as well... good thing the clippers were broken but i was still nervous he was gonna make them work and i was gonna go to bed crying about the new hair cut i got!! It was a relief when it was over!

And then there are the random nights out on the town with Trish... I sure do love her! And us at the motorcross races!!! As my brothers always give me crap about... Girls document everything... Yes we do and we love it!!! How ever I am sad that summer is coming to an end...

Happy Birthday Blakey!!!

2009-08-13T23:33:00.005-06:00

Happy Birthday Blakey he is the big 1!!! I freaking love these little kids they are so much fun!! And I sure do love when Amber brings them to Utah. As we have taught Jackson... Utah is better then Idaho cuz people from Idaho are WEIRDOS!!!! ha ha ha

I think he just might have enjoyed his cake a little bit! Jackson being a bully! He loves to wait till Blake is playing with a toy and then take it away!!! Ha ha poor kid is just turning one and already getting picked on! Tyler and Aubrees cute little boy Quinton looks like he is drunk! ha ha

3 of my 4 Nephews I sure do love them!! Danny, Jackson and Blake!!

Happy birthday Erica!!!

2009-08-10T23:15:00.003-06:00

On Friday Erica turned the big 18!!! So she got some balloons at work then we went out to dinner to celebrate!!! Happy Birthday Erica I love you!

The joys of waxing!!

2009-08-10T21:59:00.005-06:00

So I LOVE to wax! I wax my own arms and eye brows all the time!!! Well my family has now taken an interest in it! Well last night as I was waxing my arms my little brothers decided they wanted to join and bet each other they would wax their necks... oh that is where the fun began! I love to do my own arms but when other people let me wax them it makes me so excited!!! So we did and I must say it was one of the funniest things I have ever done. (Aside from the one person who agreed to a chest wax) I only got pictures of one of them but they both acted about the same way!!!

2009-07-21T11:05:00.004-06:00

Welcome to town Jackson!!! Amber sent Jackson down to Utah for a week to play with all of us and we love it hes so fun. Well last night we went to the Southtowne expo center to see the floats that are going to be in the parade on the 24th of July. It was crazy how much time and effort goes into making them they are pretty cool to see. As we were walking around Jackson saw a clown making balloons and he informed us that he has to has one. So we went to find Grandma to get money to tip the guy and the whole time he is telling us hurry the man with the red nose wants to make me one of those.... He is a funny kid!

Jackson informed me he had to have a picture of this because "soccer is his favorite and his dad would love it"I sure do love this little boy and wish they would move back to Utah. His red sword that he had to have because its his favorite color! He is SO smart for a 3 year old!

Cami even got a flower balloon with a heart to go in her hair!

Summer so far

2009-07-20T11:05:00.005-06:00

Here is what I have been up to so far this summer... No not really a super busy summer just been to lazy to take the time to post on my blog so enjoy! However I have been horrible at taking pictures as well....

To start the summer off Tj's mom and Sister came to visit! We went to lagoon, made it to nickle cade (for little kids you think? Yes it is but we still had a good time!) did lots of shopping and just hung out! It was a good time however I never had my camera when I wanted it hopefully I can get some from his mom cuz there are some funny ones!

She was not to excited about coming with us she doesnt like Lagoon very much but Tj's sister wanted a friend! Thanks Cam you the best!

Tj helping some little kids get this ball rolling! It was funny cuz when we walked away they were trying to get it going an couldnt!

Then we made it out to Colorado to see Tj's dad and grandpa! Yet again a super good time and all I got was one picture! Thank you to his Dad, Step-mom and Grandpa for showing us around for a good time! To start off we went to Snowmass village and Aspen which by the way it SO cool if you have never been there highly recommended. Its so pretty there and lots of HUGE cool houses! And I have never seen so many private jets in my whole life!!! I got to see all his dads old cars that he has restored which was so cool! Tj had told me about them but actually seeing some of them was fun! We get to go down there in 2 weeks for his car show he puts on which should be awesome and I will have to take tons of pictures that time around! Other then that we just hung out and laughed! Tj has always told me wait till you meet my dad and grandpa I am just like them and wow was that true! It was crazy how much alike the three of them are and so entertaining to watch! Thanks to everyone down there for letting us come down and make it fun!

Tj with his Dad and Grandpa!

Other then that we have just been hanging out and doing the summer thing! We go swimming and boating when we arent working and can and loving every minute of it! And I will just say this, I needed a swimming suit in a hurry one day and Walmart was close so we went there. I LOVE my walmart swimming suit its so cute however I DO NOT recommend trying to wake surf in a walmart swimming suit! Lets just say the first time I tried I lost my bottoms hence the reason for the shorts this time around! Sorry to everyone who got a show!!

We look retarded I know but it was bright outside!

Thanks Trish for coming to play with us!

Tj getting ready to wake surf!!Getting ready to try out a 360....

And he completed it first attempt! Good job babe! And here i am attempting and do it! I love wake surfing!!Tj getting ready to get his butt kicked by Sunny on the tube! Poor kid had a rough time he was thrown off and did the super man face plant, got flipped thown and whipped around!

And to stay ready for summer Kierstien wanted to help me wax my armpits! Thanks Kiers your the best!!!

Getting old....

2009-05-13T23:31:00.003-06:00

I have always said I dont want to get old but then when I saw this I really decided i didnt want to. We went to breakfast with Nate and Tina at Denny's and sitting about a table away from us was this Grandma! She got there with a bag full of stuffed animals that she had crocheted herself and we all thought cute she is going to give them to her grandkids! Well no, that is where the sad part kicks in.... She set them all up on the table around her and had a little tea party with them! Poor grandma love all alone so she had to go to breakfast with her stuffed animals!

St George and Vegas

2009-05-13T22:39:00.005-06:00

Nothing like heading South to the warm. We went down to St. George for a family reunion and spent Saturday night in Vegas at Tina's house. It was a good time and Im not going to lie when it was still 99 degrees at 12 at night i was super excited. It was a fun trip however we ran into a few problems along they way.... Getting ready to go.... We got about an hour and a half along when all the sudden we blew a tire! Now not like anything I have ever seen but apparently it's common the whole tire was in to pieces the rim and then the rest of the tire. Well, we only had one person stop to help but he was a crazy scary looking guy so we told him we had help. So that left it up to me and Trish to change it...Thanks Dad for putting me in auto in high school so I knew what I was doing! I am sure it was a sight to see but after an hour we got it taken care of! Good job Trish! and yes of course we got lots of pictures and made fun of by my brothers for "having to document everything". And yes it just so turned out we were both in skirts and heals to make matters worse~

But dont worry at the next gas station we did check the air pressure in the remaining 3 tires and were good to go! After a 7 hour drive to St. George you tend to get a little crazy....And then we finally made it and the next morning woke up early to go get the tire fixed so we could go faster then 65 and got pulled over for an expired registration. The reason we couldnt call high way patrol the night before for help with the tire! He was a cool cop and let us off with a warning!

Thank you to Erica and her friend being selfish and stealing out bed Trish and I got put in a twin bed to share! It was a little squishy a little bit of a cuddle session but we managed it! :)

When we went to Vegas we went to dinner and some how they got the idea that it was Tina and Lindsays birthdays so they brought them over the lovely hats and sang to them. Tina is a little bit of a germ a phobe and had issues wearing the hat! I dont blame her I would have as well you never know who elses nasty heads have been in them!

The six of us at dinner! And apparently when you tell them you want to share and then as for 2 plates it means you no longer wanted to share so be careful or you will get 2 full meals!

Thanks for being a good date Trish!

Then off to the strip! We didnt take to many pictures but a few... it's crazy how much the econemy has hit things. There way maybe half the people that are usually there but it was still a good time! Jackson was insistant on getting a mug from M&M world so we got sent to pick it up for him! Your welcome Jackson!

The best part was it was warm enough for swimming and a little bit of a real tan! And also served as a reminder that its time to hit the gym a little harder! Tina had the coolest pool at her house it was perfect for a little nap! I loved it!

Talk about the gym, we both have a little bit of a problem, the problem is we like to eat when we travel so we had a little bit of a collection of food! Good news is with all the crap I didnt gain a pound! Dont worry that is only the half of it! Do you remember squeeze pops from when we were little? They sell those again so we had to get one and they are pretty good still.... Straight sugar!

Over all it was a fun eventfull weekend and I cant wait to go back!

Hair time!

2009-05-13T22:32:00.002-06:00

The beauty of having friends that do hair is you get it done right out of the beauty of the home! Thanks Trish your the best!

Welcome to UTAH!!!

2009-04-29T09:41:00.003-06:00

First off, I have learned not to complain! So I posted about the lovely little rental car they gave me and not to long after I got a call from the insurance company that they would only pay for my rental for another day, so the lesson learned here is be grateful for what you have cuz now I am completely without while I fight for the value on my car!!!! Thanks TJ for being so good about sharing the truck! I love you!

After 4 years of school and 2000 hours of doing hair I finally took my first state board test and PASSED!!!! YAY one more to go and then I will be licensed to do hair FINALLY!!!!

So the other day Tj and I were driving down 90th south and 3200 west and Tj looks over and goes who does that? confused about what he is looking at I look in the same direction he is looking and see what he is talking about! Sure enough sitting in the back yard where you would maybe see a horse or chickens these people have nothing other then CAMELS!!!! HELLO PEOPLE! The animal known for its amazing ability to walk across the sand is just hanging out in the snow! So as I was driving to work today, I yet again passed them and am still in amazement at this... Really people really? A camel in Utah lets get real! So if you would like to see camels you don't have to go to the zoo or travel far, you can now see them in West Jordan!!!!

Car

2009-04-22T00:39:00.004-06:00

So after 29 days of waiting for them to do something anything with my poor car they totalled it out!! Which is a good thing for me I am pretty excited about it cuz now I get a new one! Except for the fact that they put me in a mini van looking car... This is not the exact car but it's a picture of it....

Come on people at least put me in something normal! Ah well now it's time for something new any ideas??

Easter weekend

2009-04-15T20:10:00.002-06:00

Talk about a crazy weekend. We joined the 40,000 other people that decided it would be fun to head to the sand dunes. Yes it was packed, Yes it was FREEZING and rainy most of the time, Yes I am the worst camper ever ( my idea of camping is the Hilton) But I must admit I was a trooper and Yes it was a really good time! We had lots of late nights, lots of laughs, many many hours by the huge fire trying not to freeze and managed to run into the most random people. Needless to say it was a good time. Thank you Chels and Nickki for taking pictures although I took my camera I never was near it when I wanted it.

Me Tony and Chels

Not really sure what was so funny but Tj and Bubba thought they were pretty funny!

Tj me and Nikki

Tj Chels and I

Tj and I! I dont know why but he loves to stick his tounge out at me in pictures!

We came home from the Dunes early Sunday in time to make it to church with the family. However yet again couldnt manage to find my camera when I wanted it so no pictures of Easter! Thanks Babe for always making me do things I wouldn't normally call a good time but always have fun doing it.

Summer time? Maybe!

2009-04-04T20:49:00.003-06:00

Yay for Summer time... Sometimes! I must say i do love when its warm enough that we get to be outside.. Although it's a hit and miss! I am super excited for it to be warm all the time so we can always play outside with no more snow!!!

Tj playing soccer outside with Jimmy enjoying the warm!
While me and Diana hang out watching them play! His big big truck right after he washed it!

Tj and Zac doing one of his favorite things, working on his truck! It was time for mud flaps to make it legal! And yes Lace, good old RIVER-TOWN! ha ha ha ha

Me and Kiers waiting for everyone so we could go shopping! She is getting so big its crazy~

Can anyone drive??

2009-04-04T20:38:00.003-06:00

So welcome to Utah, home of all 4 seasons! You would think by March everyone around here would be used to driving in the snow. But no that would be way to easy, so as I am driving to work on the freeway I all the sudden get hit on the left side and my car starts spinning, I hit my head and black out. I come back to facing the wrong way in Monday morning rush hour traffic! HELLO talk about scary! So I get all my stuff out of the car so it can be towed and climb in the back of the cop car till my mom gets there. Only to find out it was a six car pile. I am still not for sure what happened hopefully will find out when I get the police report! But in the mean time I am still annoyed that people cant figure out how to drive when it snows for the eighty seventh time.

My poor car!

Shoes, shoes, shoes

2009-04-04T20:23:00.003-06:00

So it was time, there were shoes everywhere and we needed a shoe rack. So we made a little trip to Walmart and bought the one that looked like it would hold the most shoes. We brought it home and it got put to the side cuz it had to be put together and we didnt have time to do it right then. Well, Sunday rolls around Tony and Tj were watching tv so Trish and I decided it was time, the shoe rack needed to be put together! So as we pull everything out of the box and look at the instructions we discover we need a hammer. Now it would be way to much work to walk up the stairs and ask Tj where a hammer is. So the fun begins... Trish picks up one of my shoes and attempts to hammer things together. It was kind of loud and we hear the boys up stairs going WHAT ARE THEY DOING DOWN THERE! So here come Tj to see what we are managing to destroy! He looks at us like we are retarded and goes to find us a hammer. Well, the hammer was left at the shop so he brings me a 2x4 and tells me to use that. I tell him thank you like he is a genius for thinking of that and as he goes upstairs I set down the wood and tell Trish to throw me a shoe! The shoes ended up working much better! After it was a shoe rack we were putting together! Thanks Trish for all your help!

The finished product! YAY! No those arent my shoes mine are way cuter! ha ha

Idaho and kiersten's first dance!

2009-04-04T20:09:00.003-06:00

Cami and I decided to go to Idaho, only problem we decided to go at 5 at night and it's about a six hour drive. So about 3 hours into the drive after hitting a major white out...( Couldn't see anything but the hazard lights of the truck in front of us thank you sir!) and a fog storm and the endless amazing scenery of nothing I started wondering what on earth I was doing making this drive. Then we got there and it was very apparent why we went... How could you pass up a trip to see the two cutest kids on earth!
He insisted on me being in his bounce house with him only problem is its not made for adults so when i would climb in and bounce with him we would both sink to the floor! If that doesn't make you feel fat I don't know what would!

Just hanging out in the bounce house with the boys up in Idaho... I sure do love them!

This is what you look like at 430 in the morning to take care of a baby that want to eat and play! good thing I love the kid and felt bad for his mother never sleeping so I made the mistake of volunteering for it!

And it has begun! The long process of getting ready for dances... 2 hours to get her ready and it was just for her 6th grade dance! Poor girl is in for it when it comes to high school dances!

Kiers all ready for her first dance! She was funny I asked her if she was dancing with any cute boys and she goes no I got all the stupid boys! Then she proceeds to tell me that all boys are stupid... Oh the days when we thought that....

The last 2 months....

2009-02-11T21:25:00.008-07:00

Now not that they have been all that busy... okay well they were busy up untill I graduated hair school... then it has been pure laziness. This is the 4th time I have started to post something and every other time i got distracted so here it goes.

We got our Christmas pictures....

We had Christmas time... (and yes, I forgot my camera most of christmas day)

We spent Christmas day with the family.....

Tj and his new Jordans....

Playing with the little girls fashion designer on DS... and yes believe it or not Tj is a good fashion designer. Way to go babe! Not only did we play with little kid toys Tj got to experience the crazy health tactics of my parents! He wasnt to happy about the picture time!

Then we had new years.. Well of course I forgot my camera so no pictures to ring in the new year. Neeedless to say it's been a good year so far!

So far this year I turned 23! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME!!!!

Graduated hair school! WAHOOO it's been a long time coming me and lacey started hair school back in Aug of 04... I guess that is what you get when you go on a leave and move and then put off schooll. Needless to say IM FINISHED!!!!!

Lost 15 pounds doing the HCG diet and now that the weight is off I have been going strong back to the gym! I yet again need to give Tj a thanks for going to the gym with me and not getting his amazing work out cuz he is showing me what to do and pushing me so hard that I cant cough for a week with out being in pain! Thanks baby it's just what I need!

Me and Tj at 5 guys burgers and fries. The food here is amazing! Thanks Brit and Zac for the invite right after gym time!!! :)

And that is the last 2 months in a nut shell! So from here on out I am going to find another job to keep myself busy at night time and pay all my bills off, Finally get over my fear of having a mortgage and buy a house, Continue to do hair and extensions on the side (If you know anyone that needs either send them my way) And continue on with my daily visits to the gym!

Hockey game!

2008-12-16T09:30:00.003-07:00

For school we went to the grizzlies game and it was a good time! Not to mention we got hours for school if we went! Who could pass that down not me! But I must say outside of school you see a different side of people that you never knew was there! Now I don't know that I would recommend going to the games on a regular basis but with everyone it was a good time! So you know those people at games that show up and they have to be thinking to themselves I think I will see if I can manage to annoy everyone in this entire place? Yes, I think everyone has sat in front of one of those people at one point in time. Well don't you worry this happened to be our lucky night! There were probably 15-20 of us there that I knew and I think I heard at least 10 of them make a comment about saying something to him... I was just waiting for it to happen cuz it would have been funny. I will say lucky no one did and we made it out of there with out a fight but for entertainment purposes I am going to say to bad they didn't cuz I would have liked to see it.

Tj gets sick of taking picture after picture so he just starts pulling different faces! Thanks babe!

Just love him...

2008-12-12T15:41:00.005-07:00

I just wanted to do a quick little post to say I love you babe and thanks for everything! There is never a dual moment with this boy which makes it all the more fun!!!!

Everyone is growing up!!

2008-12-12T15:28:00.004-07:00

The last little bit!

2008-12-12T15:17:00.004-07:00

So it has been awhile since I posted last and lots has happened!
We had Thanksgiving... We went thanksgiving dinner with the whole family counsins and all it was a total of just over 100 people I think however I forgot the camera! It was a good dinner where I had the pleaseure of seeing one of Tj's ex girlfriends (she is dating one of my cousins) imagine the weirdness as she walked in and pointed at Tj as he proceeded to tell me who it was! Oh good times... But for Thanksgiving Nate, Tina, Nick, Amber, Jackson and Blake came to visit! It was fun to have everyone back in town. And then of course we had to join in with the rest of America for black Friday! Not to many good deals but it was fun to go with my sisters and mom shopping!

Just finishing up from shopping for black friday!

Jackson, Erica and I

Sure do love the spoiled little guy! He knows how to make a bad day good and he doesnt even know he does it!

Little Blakey! He is getting big it's crazy not seeing him grow up cuz they moved to Idaho!

Body world....

2008-11-19T08:40:00.003-07:00

The other day we went to body worlds and I must say it's one of the coolest things I have ever seen! If you havent seen it I highly recommend you spend the money and go! It's well worth every penny! To be honest I never knew looking at dead waxed over bodies for 3 hours could be so entertaining!!! Thanks Tj, Ty, Kevin and Megan for going with!!!

The mind of a 3 year old....

2008-11-14T10:16:00.004-07:00

So while talking to my sister on the phone this morning I hear the funniest thing ever. My little 3 year old nephew comes up to her and tells her he doesnt like his chocolate but instead of just throwing it away he takes a bite spits it on the floor and then hands her the rest! So she sets it down and he throws a fit saying eat it. She looks at him and says what? He insists on her eatting it. Come to find out that this a regular occurance. He will be eatting dinner and be full but instead of just getting up and going to play he will take his food to his mom and insist on her eatting it. The best part is he will sit there and watch her untill she does!!! Talk about a switch in roles!!! What a stud!!! I can't wait till they come to play for Thanksgiving!!!

NO MORE SCHOOL!!!!

2008-11-14T10:03:00.001-07:00

So I am so excited!!! I have less then 200 hours left of school!!! That means by middle of January I will be done with school!!!! YAY I can not even wait!!!

Baby anyone?

2008-11-06T09:12:00.003-07:00

I can not belive how many people are having babies it's crazy! We had a baby shower for Kami and little Rilee last night. She is do in 3 weeks it's crazy to think all my friends are having kids! Anyway good luck Kami your going to be such a good mom!!!

Look at her cute belly! She looks like she is going to pop anyday!

Winter anyone?

2008-11-04T10:00:00.002-07:00

What started out to be an awesome day has now gone bad.... Start the day off by getting up early making TJ some lunch then heading to the gym. As I finish the gym I get ready stop by the store for some lunch stuff and then head to work. I arrive at work and get all cozied into my office where I sat content. Until someone walks in the door, now this is not the part that makes it bad. I walk out to help the guy who just walked into my office and I made the biggest mistake. I looked outside only to see it's SNOWING!!! SNOWING! Are you joking me yes it might be November but I am not ready for the snow yet! I knew I wasn't a fan of Utah for the winter months. I am not ready to put away the tank tops and skirts....

Halloween

2008-11-04T09:31:00.006-07:00

Yay for Halloween!!! Hope everyone had a good one! Mine was fun after working all day I had to go find costumes cuz well I slacked and kept putting it off so thank you to Zach for helping us out! We ended up being firefighters... not the scandalise ones no... the real stuff and I will tell you what that stuff is warm and the boots are heavy!!! I am not going to recommend trying to run up stairs in them. If you are anyting like me you will end up face planting half way up them! Here are some pictures of the fun night my camera died half way through so there arent to many!

TJ Me Kevin and Megan

Thank you Megan for giving me look alike facial hair at the beginning of the night!!

Thoughts for the day....

2008-10-20T14:09:00.002-06:00

WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND-- I have always believed this but after a chain of events I am a firm believer!

IF YOU HAVE A POSITIVE ATTITUDE YOU CAN OVER COME ANYTHING!

THE MORE YOU HELP PEOPLE GET WHAT THEY WANT THE MORE YOU WILL GET WHAT YOU WANT!

WILL YOU DO WHAT IT TAKES TO GET WHERE YOU WANT WITH WHAT YOU WANT?

HOLD TIGHT TO THE THINGS THAT MEAN THE MOST CUZ YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN NEXT!

ATTITUDE IS EVERYTHING SO KEEP A GOOD ONE!

LIFE IS TO SHORT TO SPEND WITH PEOPLE WHO BRING YOU DOWN...

REMEMBER THE FUTURE FOR THE PAST CANNOT BE CHANGED, BUT THE FUTURE IS YOUR TO CREATE!

AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST MAKE THE MOST OF EVERY MOMENT CUZ YOU NEVER KNOW WHERE YOUR LIFE IS GOING TO TAKE YOU!

We had a class at school and those were some of the quotes that were given.. I decided to share some of the quotes from it cuz they made me stop and think so maybe they will do the same for you!

Miss you girls!!!

2008-10-09T14:35:00.003-06:00

We had a photo shoot at school in which we were required to do.. So during school they gave us a couple hours to work on it. Needless to say we ended up at Chili's for the entire time we had to work on it. But worry not we got things done in plenty of time and as soon as I get the picture back I will post them on here!

YAY FOR MEGAN AND KEVIN

2008-10-09T14:29:00.003-06:00

Congrats to Megan and Kevin getting married!!!! You two are awesome!!!! Thanks for always hanging out with us!!! Dont mind that I am in a hoodie... It got cold and that is all there was! :)
Me, Tj and Kevin... Tj and Kevin have been friends since they were little...

Not just another day....

2008-10-02T09:28:00.003-06:00

Just another day.... Not so much! Last Thursday started a little rough.. I woke up and was tired so i slept through the gym and that just makes for a rough day cuz i am kicking myself all day for not going. Anyway, head to work in a rush cuz i slept in and was gonna be late, get to work and the crazyness starts. About 2 o clock my cell phone rings and it's TJ... that automatically lets me know something is going on cuz his lunch is at noon and he cant have his phone... anyway so I answer the phone and hear a bunch of mummbling that i can't understand but at the end of it I hear I need you to meet me at the ER ASAP!!! Of course I panic and am okay... So I hang up the phone and do what any girl would do and FREAK OUT! I couldnt understand a thing he said so I think the worst... So I head to the hospital and get there only to find out there was an accident at his work and he had lost the end of his fingers. He ended up having to have a skin graft on Tuesday to maintain as much of his fingers as possible and will go see the doctor Monday to see how well it takes! Not as bad as it could have been no.... but I will tell you what it has made for some sleepless nights for the both of us. Anywho, If any one has any ideas of things to entertain that only involve using one hand that would be great! Here is a picture or 2 of the damage before the surgery...(Im sorry if you have a weak stomach and this makes you sick)

Gym Time!

2008-09-19T13:30:00.002-06:00

I must tell you all I love the gym!!! For everyone who hasnt found this love is missing out!!! I have been lazy and not gone for a bit because when the alarm goes off the last thing I want to do is go work out... Well this morning 5:15 the alarm goes off... Of course I hit snooze and then at 5:30 decide you know what I need to do this! So I roll out of bed get dressed and off I go! As I am running and kicking by own butt I realize Hey this is all worth it and I love it! My legs now hurt but it's the feeling of hurt so good and it is all worth it! So now after my life story you prob could have all lived with out it's time to give the gym a try!!!! :)

the newest little one!

2008-08-19T14:28:00.000-06:00

Pretty sure I have a new little nephew and if i do say so myself he is so freaking cute! Little Blake Christensen! Dont worry he loves me the most just like his older brother!Here he is sleeping just a few days old!

Just a couple hours old.....

Boating!

2008-08-04T13:54:00.000-06:00

I love boating and this was the first time all summer I have been out and I remembered why I love it so much! Especially cuz we only had 4 of us on the boat so we didnt have to share the water toys very much! We didnt get very many pictures but the ones we did get were fun! However I did get reminded how dirty Utah lake is... I put on my new cute white swimming suit and had a good time and when i got home to change it had started to turn it green from the inside out... NASTY!!! Me and TJ just hanging out waitng for the water to calm down a little so we could wake surf! Not the best picture but it will do! (if you look close you can see my almost muscles! they are almost muscles cuz they only kind of show right now... Ha ha)
And when it finally did calm down I tried wake surfing... It took a minute but finally did it...
I finally got the hang of it and was doing good...
and they thought it would be funny to pull on the rope and throw me off...
Just got done boating and had to get pictures with my new cute friend... Kirby was so much fun... if only all girls were like her I maybe would have more girl friends then i do.

Fun with the little sis!

2008-08-04T13:45:00.000-06:00

Who says little sisters cant be fun! I love mine! We have a blast together everytime we hang. To bad she isnt a little bit older so she could come hang out more often!!There she is gotta love her! Prob not the best thing to do while driving but we manage it anyway!
Just entertaining ourselves.. One of the easiest things to do.. especially when a camera is there.
Waiting for erica to get a new book outside Barnes and Noble with about 1000 0thers.
I think this is the scariest picture I have ever seen of here... this is what you look like when you have just jumped and landed and the picture is taken to late...

Lagoon

2008-07-23T17:18:00.001-06:00

We went to Lagoon with 3 other people and I felt like a little kid, we were so excited to do everything and were more then entertained all day long! It was a super fun day except for when we were at the water park just laying out and i got pooped on by a stupid bird flying by! But over all we were sad when the night was over and they started closing down all the rides! Good thing they have bounce back!
Bubba, TJ and Tony!
Yes that would be Tj and Bubba in the middle! There are like a bunch of 2 year olds sometimes but I guess that is what makes it so fun! :)

We spent 12 weeks preparing for it and then 2 days straight! i think we spent a good 34 hours together in 2 days. Anyway here are a bunch of pictures in no order cuz I am still learning how do to this :) Day of the hair show with one hour of sleep we were all a little tired!
Me and Erica all ready to go right before we went on stage to model to the song Toxic by Brittany Spears!
