Watching Americas Next Top Model is not working out

TODAY:
Woke up, excited to watch a little CSI (my love!), then go to the gym.
What did I do? Turned on the tube, NO CIS ON! Theres always CSI on, I swear it is one of the things in life that I can count on. Well not today I guess, and on the only day off of the week (besides Sunday) How rude.
I didn't go to my plan B, but instead started dreading my cousins blog
www.natthefatrat.com. She is just so addicting to read. YOU should read her to.
Now I am procrastinating going to work out. Working out is so good for you, but so boring! So here I am blogging, which I havent done in so long.


On a cool note my best friend KARLI RIDDLE is getting married NEXT week. Which is so weird. It shouldn't be since I am married. She is having her bachelorette party tonight. I'm sure it will be so fun.

I should prolly stop this and do something productive!
Thanks for reading!

I'm going to be a Godmother!

Well let's be honest if they were going to die Kelsey and Riley would prolly hand my lovely little godbaby over to one of their family members. BUT! I love the title anyways. And I love them. They are one of those couples where Stephen and I get along with BOTH of the spouses. Thats really hard to come by.

So yay for friends having babys. And guess what I guessed that he was going to be a him. :) and I love HIM already :)

This is for baby boy Mauch. If your parents were to die, and you had no family in the world to take you, your uncle Stephen and I would take you and put you in the little cupboard under the stairs and make you our little servant until you found out that you had magical powers. Just like in Harry Potter. Not really but we would love you and you would become our own little boy.

I love you little boy,
Your godmother.

(ps this is for you)

Family photo's

After Sunday dinner at my In-laws we went down to the Provo river, found a really cool tree and took some pictures down on the banks. I love the family that I married into. They are sweet, funny, and kinda crazy which makes them my favorite people.

I love to shop...but?

Should there be a but after that statement?
I love almost everything about it.
-The smell
-The work out:)
-The therapy
BUT not when you don't have money which is the predicament that we are in right now. We just bought our first car and are adjusting to the new payments.
Today for family home evening my lovely husband said "Lets go to the mall." So I didn't say no. That would just be silly.
As soon as we walk onto the sidewalk in front of the mall he says, "now why did agree to this?" with a sheepish smile. Oh I do love him.
So we walked. That's pretty much all we did. I admired the jackets in buckle and he dreamed of owning the tony hawk game with the skate board as the controler, which does sound kinda cool don't you think. We went to Macy's and sprayed ourselves with some fufu. I smell divinely like Juicy Couture and he is hot in Dolce and Gabana's "THE ONE"...mmm such a sexy smell.
And as soon as i was about to start walking to my biggest temptation (a darling little store called Boheme) Stephen turned me in the opposite direction towards Cold Stone. I said, you want cold stone? (you see he doesn't care for ice cream, only I do in this family) He said, "Well I thought you did" "No, but now that you put it in my mind I do now!" So we bought the one thing in the mall we could afford, a bigger waistline:)

SHOUT OUT!: My best friend Emily who lives on the other side of the country just had her first baby! YAY little boy Rilee (I think that's how they decided to spell it)
anyways I'm a terrible friend and we hardly keep in touch, but I do think of her almost daily and am just elated that shes starting a family. I love her so much. and her son is just to die for!

Don't you hate it when...

I was just about at the end a very well written blog about my birthday and then it was all deleted when I absent mindedly tired to look something up on google.

I hope that I am not the only one that this has happened to, and that it brings joy to everyone who knows me and knows that I'm a little ditzy.

Goodnight all

And happy birthday to me!

Gossip at work

So today I was sitting at work talking with my girlfriends and the conversation of their weddings came up. (a very normal thing I might add.) But this time it was cause they were unsure if they really wanted their parents to even be there which was the weirdest thing to me. That hadn't been a thought when I was coming up with my guest list, my parents were naturally at the top of my list along with their spouses. This was when I realized just how good I had it when it comes to my family. Yea my parents might not get along the best but they love me without thought.

There was even a time when they were both fighting to HAVE me. That was a very hard period in my life but now that I look back on it it makes me really realize that they love me enough to fight for me, and as weird as it may sound, it warms my heart.

My mom is my best friend. Not that my dad and I aren't super close, my mom and I just have a different kind of bond. One of my most fond memories was as a high school girl was going up to Eugene Oregon to see my brother and his family. While we were there my mom and I had a girls night at a hotel near my brothers house. We went to the store cracking jokes along the way that made our belly's hurt so badly from laughing. On our way in my mom told me, "I'm so glad to have a daughter that's my best friend." As I told this story to my girlfriends at work they said that they envied me for what I had.

Gossip can be good sometimes, it made me remember something so important in life.

Family.
