CINCO DE MAYO

Remember how this day was forever ago? I guess I am just a little bit behind. It was such a fun day though. I love celebrating anything that has to do with the hispanic culture. How did I celebrate? Quesadilla for breakfast. taco bell for lunch. chips and salsa for a snack. Authentic taco's from The Ranch Market for Dinner with friends. Zumba dancing. Friends hadn't ever been the The Ranch Market. Jenalee thought she was going to get mugged. haha. Thats silly to think that. The people there are amazing. Don't be scared of what is different.

I am an ADDICT

There is something about a picnic that just makes me happy! Maybe its the sunshine, or the good food, or the soft blanket. Roommate Tori decided it was time for a roommate picnic so Sunday after church we headed out to the park!

Everyone forgot their glasses so luckily I had enough glasses in my truck for EVERYONE to havea a pair! The best part is they matched their personality!

We even let Muchkin come.

Roommate Julie Ann Made hummus and it looked like baby poop but tasted soooo good. we had to take a picture.

Here is our Munchkin! What a good dog.

I love my roommates! They are vastly different and I like that. The longer I stay single the better wife I am going to be! I have learned to live with multiple personalities, so I could even marry a skitzo.

I have learned to clean the house, work all day, and be welcomed home to a dirty house that i get to clean before I go to bed.

I have learned to share.

I have learned how to listen when all I really want to do is go to my room and sleep.

It's great! I plan on staying single much longer because I have more to learn!

HATCH A BIRD EGG!!!

Happy Birffffday to Lindsey!!!

What a cuty patooty!

Annie and Jensen came with Tyson and Kim. Trisha was also there. I was so busy making sure the table was stocked I didn't get pictures of everyone. :( I need another me!

The party was EPIC.

ROOMMATE!

This is roommate Tori. She helped me make some grub on sunday. It's called, Leftover Casserole! haha YUMM. It is kind of like Funeral potatoes, just different.

SRRRRRRRRING AGAIN

Here are my roommates. Here is the garden they planted. Julie Ann plays her guitar for the garden. Soon we will have fresh vegetables and herbs!

The ghost town.

Last weekend THE ZACH put us in his truck and took us on an adventure! We went out to A.J. and hit up a ghost town!! :) A mining ghost town. During the day it is lively with tourists and street gun shows but at night there is only 1 thing open and that is the Mammoth Saloon. BOY WAS IT LIVELY! We had a great time! There were all sorts of local old people there country dancing and a live band. It was fun and the food was amazing. I didn't feel like I was in a saloon, it was more like a dinner theatre. I would suggest it to ANYONE! :)

Here is Jakebee with his name tag, aka SUGAR

I wish it was daytime so we could see all this cool stuff. They had mining equipment all along the main road of the town.

We can take a ride on my big green tractor...

A cage? What the weird. Despite all her rage she is still just a rat in a cage.

What was so funny? you will never know.... Kara laughs, and it is fun.

Slagle came! He has officially moved out East and said we better get used to having him around. DONE AND DONE!

Are we drinking, or barfing?

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Lets start out with New Years Eve shall we? The day starts out with me waking at 5 like all other days and going to work. Julie was my date for the night. We started out going to wal greens to get our supplies. Glasses, hats, energy drinks. First stop of the night was to hit up Polar Ice Skating Rink. They had a big party going on and we saw lots of our friends from the Eden Park ward. PLUS a bunch of high schoolers. ummm, lets leave this party shall we?

Be jealous of our super cool 2010 glasses!

Be jealous of our 5 hour energy at 9 pm

We headed out to Gameworks which was more our scene. We ran into friends Josh, Matt, Zach and Travis.

We played games all night, our favorite was basketball. I won, TWICE.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Doing a little Skateboarding.

Throughout the night my skin color was getting worse and worse. Maybe it was the no sleep, or the 2 energy drinks I consumed. I was wasted tired. After gameworks we went to a pancake breakfast then over to the boys house to hang out till 5 am. A full 24 hours later I was climbing into bed eagar to wake up the next morning and embrace the day. I had big plans!!



NEW YEARS DAY

What does 10 am bring??? A hike up South Mountain with Tori and Julie!!

The day was fantastic! The weather was 70 degrees. It couldn't have been more perfect.

At the top of the trail was a weird rock pyramid. This is me trying to get a picture with it.

After hiking we went home and napped before we went out to first friday.

We met up with Trisha and Brynn and some of our friends from their circle. Julie and Jakeb had never been to the first friday action before. Julie loved it but Jakeb was too tired to really enjoy anything.

After first friday I really wanted to show everyone a restaurant in Phoenix called FEZ but it was closed for New Years. Dumbdotcom!! So we went to Macayos instead and then off to 2010.

Zach, Travis, and Josh were working the 2010 party so we hit it up since we could get in for free. You won't find me paying to get into a dance party. Lame sauce. not my thing. We had a good time though and that was that for the new year. it was a loooonnnng day. A great way to start the new year.

Because I knew you, I have been blessed

I have lived with quite a few people in my short 6 years since graduating high school. From them I have learned many different things. Like from Mary Bench I learned you can skin a dead snake with a rock. Mekahla Marshall and Jana Rae Shoemaker taught me that its perfectly normal to be completely crazy and silly. Kimbalee Bigler taught me that some people eat vegetables and only vegetables. Ashley Kelepolo taught me that Hard work pays off. Jean Hammond taught me that some people are just misunderstood. Julie Sorensen taught me how to live with passion. Heather Lee taught me what true friendship really is. Meagan Bryant taught me that its fun to be engaged. Katie Elliott taught me to laugh. Audrey taught me that design matters. Sharolyn Gabbitas taught me to pay attention to world events. Kari Ann Pearsall taught me that politics are important. Kara Palmer taught me that little events, thoughts and actions can brighten your day. Zach Bloomer taught me that principle and respect are crucial. Roy Bryant taught me that Mexico rules. Aaron taught me that timing is everything. B-rad taught me to not settle for anything other than true love.

I wonder what other people are going to enter my life. I can't wait to meet them. I know there is something they can teach me. I believe that people are in your life for a reason. Some make a 5 minute appearance and others last a life time. No matter how great or small of a roll they play, they are all important.
