I've been sucked in again.


My sister Mckenzi read this series and passed them along to me. I've heard them be compared to the Twilight series, maybe because they're quick and easy to read; it's geared towards younger people, and it's all fantasy just like Twilight. Beyond that I can't tell how similar they are yet since I just finished the first one.

When I get started on a book I'm the type that has to hurry up and read all 500 pages in like 4 days. Jed probably thinks I'm such a loser cause I come home from work and plop myself on the bed and read all night long; I've got a one-track mind I think. I'm trying to stretch it out a little so I can bring them on the cruise next week, but I hope they last that long!

Spring Break

I'm a bad blogger! I wish I knew how to add all of the cool stuff I see on other people's sites but I'm too dumb and by the time I get around to posting I don't even care to learn at that point...
Spring Break was nice to have time to just do nothing. We stayed home a lot, went to my parents for dinner, played guitar hero with my sisters, (well I tried to play anyway.. it's so hard for me!) and just hung around.

I had my knee scoped on Thursday, so it was good to have the time off to try and recover. I still feel like I have a tree trunk down there instead of a leg, but hopefully things will get better day by day. It's hard not being able to do stuff on my own like go up steps or drive, but I'm crossing my fingers I'll be doing those things soon.

I hope everyone enjoyed their breaks and got some sunshine!

Meet Schroeder

When he was little, he looked more like a rodent. There was much more dark in his hair and he was so tiny! Now he still is not that big, but his hair looks more like ramen noodles than rat hair. His favorite thing to do is snuggle. Whenever one of us is doing something still, Schroeder will come curl up on our lap or in the crooks of our knees or the small of our backs if we're laying down in front of the TV.

I love that he's a momma's boy, he follows me around the house and if he thinks we're getting ready to go somewhere he gets all pouty. Isn't it funny how attached we get to our pets?

I'm so proud...


This picture is borrowed from Jed's sister Mandie's blog, but I just thought I'd share the spectacle he made of himself while on vacation without me. He went with the girls of his family to St. George to shop and enjoy the sunshine and spend a day in Vegas. This was only one of his many uplifting moments that I've heard about since he's been home. Not from him of course, I had to hear about his table dances and fountain dipping from his aunts and sister. We obviously don't have to worry about where the entertainment will come from at our house!

I wish I were this creative.


Julie is really quite the domestic diva. We all know from working with her that she always has some project in her home to work on, weather it be refinishing furniture or redecorating an entire room, she's got it covered. I think these baby accessories she does are adorable! If you haven't been to her blog yet, you need to visit http://sprinklesontopbaby.blogspot.com/. I can only dream of having the eye for stuff like she does!

I'm such a bad blogger.


I keep meaning to update and post something new, but we are just boring!
I did go last night with my mom and Sandra and Stacie to see Juno finally. We laughed ourselves silly. (well, mostly I laughed and Mitzi and Sandra...) It was so cute- funny and touching at the same time. So guess what I'm doing tonight? Jed wants to see it now, so I get to go twice in a row! I know, I know, I need to get a life...

tagged twice!


I've been tagged by Liz and Michelle, so here it goes:

  1. I love to sleep in. If I could, I'd sleep till noon every day.
  2. I'm such a Tivo dork. My nightly routine includes watching tv that we've recorded during the day.
  3. My favorite ice cream is coffee lover's only from Cold Stone.
  4. I'm taking an anthropology class on Saturday mornings at UVSC.
  5. I hate being dressed up. Even after work I come straight home and take everything off and trade for sweats.
  6. I love treats from my dad's house. He's the best cook ever! I can't ever go up there without having a sample of everything.
  7. I'm a horrible cook. Poor Jed :)

I'm not popular enough to have 7 friends that haven't been tagged already, so I tag Julie, Amie, and Bobbi.
