Our Lives

Callie made me realize that I'm a slacker at this. She said that she posts more often than I do so I'm here to prove her wrong. I keep thinking I need a great picture to go with a post but this time it will not be the case. I do however have a funny story to tell and I'm just so grateful that Brett was there to witness it with me. We were driving down the street the other day listening to the radio and the theme song from "Night at the Roxberry" was on. Such a classic and hilarious movie. We both looked over at a teenage kid on his scateboard going down the street. This kid was "hip" with the hair like Troy from "High School Musical". Right on the beat the kid flipped his hair and gave us "the look" that was saying "I'm so cool and hot". It was as though he could hear the music because he flipped his head moving the hair out of his face right on the beat. It was incredible. Like I said, I'm just glad that Brett was there to have seen it too.
Last week was so busy. Here are some of the highlights: Jules learned to roll from her back to her front so now she does both (although I think she's only done it once, she still did it). Now I can't leave her on her changing table alone. I picked up a new hobby of making jewerly (although I still haven't made anything I have the stuff to do it). I've been wathing my niece a little too much (although I love her to death, too much of a good thing can turn ugly). I helped my mom throw a retirement party for 700 people for her old boss in which not even half that amount came. I worked a beautiful wedding serving the General Primary Presidency and Young Women Presidency and who know who else. I finally made some friends here in my ward (just in time to move) and had a way fun girls night out up Provo Canyon in this great cabin. Before I didn't think I really needed friends as long as I had my family but that all changed this week when I realized how much fun girls have together and how necessary it is to have girl friends. I went to the Women's Expo at the McKay event center, that was a lot of fun too. We bought a sectional off KSL for $500 for our new place. We didn't fall in love with it but it was descent looking so we bought it for security until we can find a better one. We will probably sell it in a bit for $600 or so. I bought a Madeal breastpump off craigslist. We have Jules drink bottles most of the time to monitor how much she drinks and it was taking me 2 hours a day to pump with our cheap pump and now it goes so much faster, I love it. I made more cute flowers for Jules headbands. Today my sister-in-law had a baby girl. The sucker was 9lbs.9oz. The still don't have a name but she's cute. She's actually blond and light color skin. My brother was super blonde when he was born and super white so she gets that from him which is kind of funny since Jules gets her darkness from me and we come from the same family. Have I mentioned that my family is a bit messed up when it comes to similarity? My niece Maddie pooped on the floor today. I went out to lunch with the old YW presidencey. I will have my Mary Kay stuff so if any of you still want stuff for 1/2 off I'm here for you. Oh yeah, Brett, is busy with work and school and is in one acappella group and starting one up of his own, I think I got almost everything. As you can see, life is busy but going great. I almost forget how busy last week was. I was remembering it being pretty boring but I guess I was totally wrong. I am relieved that the Camilla girl was found and that the cause of her death wasn't by some psycho seeing as the canyon trail is my favorite place to run and ride my bike. Now I'll be able to do that a more since I was scared to for a while. Ok, that's really all.
