Random Happenings...

Well, lately my life has been a little crazy. I haven't really had a lot to write about until recently. So here goes nothing... This weekend has been a bit of an emotional weekend for my sisters family. On saturday, her neice, little Lacy Jae passed away. What a sad thing to have happen. She was only 16 months old. She has had a lot of health problems since she was born and then things just kept getting more and more complicated. She was born with a big heart and lungs that did not work. She passed away saturday night. I was able to go to her funeral yesterday and I must say that I was truly touched. What a sweet and amazing family this little girl was born in too. They just loved her and cared for her unconditionally. They have such an amazing perspective on the plan our Heavenly Father has for us. How grateful this made me for my family and for the amazing gifts that I have been given in my life. I have a wonderful husband, who I love more than anything and who loves me in return. I have an amazing family. They are such strong examples to me of how to live life to the fullest. They are always loving me and supporting me and I am so grateful for them. We always seem to be there for eachother no matter what the circumstance is. I have been truly blessed in life with the things that matter. My heart goes out to Mike and Joy. We love you and will keep you in our hearts and prayers.

Breaking Dawn...

Well, the new book to the Twilight series came out and my sister-in-law and I faced the crowd of crazies at the Walmart to get this book. Needless to say I don't think it was her strongest one and its the last one, which is kind of a let down. When I first read the series I just couldn't stop reading and this one I couldn't seem to make myself pick it up. After finally finishing it I thought it was alright, but definitely not her best one. There was a lot of hype for a lot of nothing really happens. I know that I am making a lot of people mad, but its an opinion right? We are all entitled to our opinions. So here's mine. Sorry if it offends anyone!

Memories...

My friend Kristin had this on her blog and I thought it was too cute, so I added it to mine. Its a memory game and this is how you play!

1. Leave a memory that you and I had together, as a comment on my blog.It doesn't matter if you know me a little or alot. Anything you remember.

2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you. If you leave a memory about me then I will assume that you are playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave a memory about you.

Time Flies When Summer Comes!

This summer has been so crazy! I have been gone every other weekend this summer and finally this weekend I am at home and I am rather excited to relax and do nothing.

We have recently decided to start renting movies from Red Box. I love it! What a great invention. So far I have watched movies that I wasn't dying to pay a lot of money to see. Recently I viewed the Bucket List. I loved that movie. It has quite an interesting story to it. It made me think of how we have people come in and out of our lives that are made to be there for us. We have wonderful opportunities to meet different people and they all seem to leave an impression on us whether for good or bad. Life is funny that way. I am so glad that I have so many wonderful people in my life that have definitely helped me to be a better person or help me through times that are hard. Yes, I am sappy I know. Thats what this movie invoked in me.

I just though I would share my thoughts about that. I will update all my summer happenings soon. I hope everyones summer has been as good as mine!

Which Disney Princess Are You?

My cute friend Kristen put this on her blog and I thought it was fun so I decided to take the quiz. Here are the results!

You Are Belle!

Intelligent and kind. Your beauty goes much further than your apperance. Also, you make judgements of people based on their personality and not their looks. Attaining all the knowledge that you can is one of your major goals in life, but you are also a person who can make things happen.

Which Disney Princess Are You?

Oh What Fun We Had!

This week my sister brought my nephews up for basketball camp and so she decided to stay with me for the week. I was so excited! She and her other 4 kids showed up on Monday night. It was so good to see them. Of course me being the retard that I am, I forgot to take pictures. Basically, I am not going to ever have any photo memories.

Anyways, so this week I got to hang out with her and her kids. It was so much fun. I had Emily come in to my work for a massage and then I took her kids to get lunch and eat it at the park. You will never believe what happened there when I tell you.  My neices maddy and sydney were climbing trees and found a really long caterpillar. Maddy was so excited, and she wanted to take it home and make it her pet of course. Well, this little girl that we don't know comes up and asks Maddy if she can play with it. Maddy being the sweet girl that she is let this little girl play see the little caterpillar. Once this girl has the caterpillar she proceeds to tell maddy that she is not going to give and back and that it is hers now since maddy let her see it and look at it. Well, I told that little girl ( who I have other names for but will not use) to give Maddy back the caterpillar since she had it first. The little girl says that she won't and then she runs of and smashes the caterpillar. Maddy was devistated. I was angry and ready to scream at this little girl, all the while wondering where her mother is during all of this chaos. Needless to say I didn't scream at this little girl, but told her to get away from Maddy and the other kids. I was very nice and but firm and so the squashing caterpillar girl left us and all in all our lunch ended well. Then later on that day the girls came and got little pedicures at the salon. It was so much fun.

The rest of the week was filled with the discovery museum, shopping, late night talks, watching the boys play basketball and ended with them dropping me off and heading for home. I was so sad to see them leave. I don't get to hang out with them very often and so it was so much fun! Thanks for coming to visit Em!!! I hope that you guys come back soon.
