NIKES VS. ASICS

VS.

I want to get a new pair of running shoes and would love everyones opinion. My last pair were NIKES. I loved them but a few friends have talked about their love for their ASICS. So now am I confused. Did I only LOVE my NIKES because I haven't tried ASICS? I know that its important to find the right show to improve performance.

What is your opinion on the two?

ALSO. What is your opinion on world peace?

THE HIKERS

Dallin is in town for his spring break so we decided to go hiking. He is always saying how much he wished he lived down here so that he could partake in the hiking club. A few of Jeff and Bobbies kids came with us as well. It was a windy day buy we pushed through and had a great hike! At one point I thought my little Cheynanna was going to blow away! We hiked the 3 miles up and back to the Wind Caves at Usery Park. As we were walking Cheynanna said "Mary Ann, How old are you?" Almost 24 I said. "oooh, she said. I thought you were 19!" The funny part is I could hearr the sound in her voice that to her she thought 19 was REALLY old. I used to baby sit those kids! They have grown up so much and have turned into little adults!

Chandler, Cheynanna, and Danielle.

Dallin and Mary Ann

Poor Keldon had surgery a few days ago so he wasn't able to make it. Afterwards we all went out for ice cream as a reward for what we had just accomplished! We went to my personal favorite...

yummmm. I opted to not have any but all the kids enjoyed it. I couldn't believe they could eat so much ice cream! Oh to be young again. :)

HAPPY FRIDAY FRIENDS!!!!

The Princess and the Orange Juice.

Once upon a time in a land far away there was a princess. She didn't want everyone to know she was a princess because she hadn't found her prince yet so she was in hiding working in a sales office selling dreams. One Friday morning she was sitting in her princess cube and thinking about the glorious festivities she had planned for that weekend. Over the cube she heard 2 words, orange juice. Her mouth started watering and she knew that she just had to have some. She didn't care that it would be in a plastic bottle instead of her normal crystal goblet with diamonds in the bottom. So off she went on her quest to find some orange juice from the nice peddler who sold various breakfast items in the peasant room. On her quest for orange juice she ran into a friend and fellow worker Amanda. She happened to be on her way to the peddler as well. They filled the air with pleasant chatter as they made their way down the lane. When they arrived upon the Peasant room it was extra busy! There was hustle and bustle all around as everyone was excited for the upcoming weekends. Laughter was in the air and everyone was having quite a good time exchanging words of well wishing. Somehow in the exchanges the princess and her friend amanda got split up and amanda was in the line ahead of her. Amanda made her purchases and came back to the princess in line. The princess assumed she was going to bid her farewell and start back on her journey. Amanda leaned into the princess and said, Princess, I already paid for your orange juice. Thank you for all that you do for everyone. You are always giving to others and I wanted to say Thank you. The princess wanted to cry right there! Such a kind thing her friend had done for her to say thank you. So that Friday became all the better with one bottle of orange juice.

Its so easy for us to focus on all the negative things that we forget the little things. Lets all look around and notice the small acts of kindness that people do. It may not have been a big deal to Amanda to buy that orange juice but it made a big impact on me....errrr...uhhh.....i mean the princess.

Walk or Ride The Ditty Bops

With just one kiss you could change the world,It might not be much better-- but it certainly couldn't hurt.When you stomp your feet you aren't hurting me,But you're always killing something just by living on the Earth...So who you supposed to listen to when you're looking for something to do?And all the voices shut you up-Someone put a brick in your coffee cup.-When you're trying to decide whether to walk or to ride;Take the easy way you know that you want toI saw an educated girl give her hair a twirlAnd contemplate the meaning of a man with just one arm.She's not a genius or a dunce, but it makes no difference;For at any moment we might find ourselves a charmBut I'm feeling quite confused by the people who refuseA simple way of life that don't make you the loser.They say we won't make it far unless drive there in a car,But we'll be there with time to spare and find our own way home.You might find the meaning of life in the barrel of a rifleWhether it's pointed at a bird or if it's pointed at your head.But me, I'd rather plant a tree that grows up tall for all to see..Until I need a pencil, then I'll chop it to the groundAt night falling down, will it make a sound?Should I even wonder what it'd say?It's so hard to change yourself to tell someone elseThat everything is going to be okay..Oooh

My weekend

What a fun weekend! We went to Mexico!! IT WAS COMPLETELY SAFE. Now I don't know about all the other border towns, but Rocky Point was fine. Everyone who went with us came back alive! Who would have thought. I know everyone has heard all the scares on the news about the danger going on down there with the drug wars. My theory is that the news is blowing everything out of proportion because the economy is junky here so they wanted everyone to stay in the states and spend there money here. The crappy part is that IT WORKED! :( The beaches and clubs were a little empty but hey, we had the dance floor all to ourselves! We were okay with that. So if you are thinking of going down there but CHICKEN out because of what you hear from others take it from a chickadee who was there. It's fine.

Everyone Chilling at the Beach.

Dinner at grandmas house. YUMMMM

We love going to church there! We don't understand more than 5 words, but love it.

The only mishap was that we ran out of gas. Good thing it was on the US side.

BRILLIANT!!! BA HAAA HAAA

Why Mormon Girls Stay Single

I think props are due here. I have spent the entire day reading up on a blog. The day has been filled with smirks, laughs that come from way down in the belly, maybe even a few tears when things hit too close to home. All in all the blog is fantastic!! Now it seems, reading from the comments that are made, that some don't think it to be as funny as I do. To those people I would say Lighten up! Laughter helps the soul so take it when you can get it. The other day I saw a young women on a bike get hit by a car. Did I laugh? YOU BET! I could tell she wasn't hurt, she didn't even fall over. It was just the thing I needed to see at the end of the work day. I am sure even she is laughing about it right now with her friends at ASU. Check out the blog if you have a little time to ROFL!!!
