Don't Mess With the Zohan.. Seriously

I love movies. They are my passion. I love to go to opening night, stay up late watching them, rent oldies but goodies, try new genres, try ones that look stupid but end up being good. I unfortunately spent a friday night a few months ago watching don't mess with the zohan on opening night. Afterward, I swore I would never ever, ever, ever watch it again. Well I did. What a waste of a saturday afternoon.

A's are my thang.

Approximately one hour ago I aced my test.. major. I had the urge to shout it from the rooftops. My excitement has now dwindled and I have the urge to shout it from my blog. I'm elated.
These are my parents expressing their joy in the clouds.

Mom


Last week my mom had surgery to remove a tumor that had grown in her abdomen. The day was long and full of prayer. All 6 of us (me, erika, dad, other melissa, tyler, and curtis) packed into a tiny pre-op room to keep my mom company for a few hours. We had fun keeping my mom calm (okay, so she kept us all calm actually) and playing family feud on my sister's computer. Once the surgery was over we received great news from the docs and all seems to be going well. Other than the fact she has had to stay in the hospital longer than expected. Read her blog to catch a funny glimpse of her life for the past week. 
I'm so in love with that woman and I'm so happy that she is healthy and healing!

Shout Out.

Hey all. I'm back! I've been MIA for a few weeks (posts on the way) and what better way to hit the scene than with a new blog layout!! Thanks to my girl mally bjork I have a fashion forward blog.. Thanks girl!

Ladies Night

Every 6 months during priesthood session of general conference my mom, erika, and I go to ladies night at deseret book. If you have never been you should seriously consider going next april. They have a drawing going on all night to win books, pictures, gift baskets, etc. There is also live entertainment and usually some snacks! This weekend my mom wasn't able to go because she was in Colorado. So my sister and I decided to go to keep the tradition alive and went over there just the two of us. She was sorely missed. We first went to forever 21 and both bought new winter jackets that we both needed, another tradition we just might add to the weekend! Then we headed over to ladies night. We didn't win a thing. Too bad. But we got over it quickly once we scarfed down some cafe rio with the boys. I love conference weekend :)

I made it.

The last five days were too stressful. The life of a college student, I guess you could say. I won't name all the things that were due in my school life (2 tests, a presentation.. dang, I couldn't resist) or the situation I encountered in my personal life (I really won't this time) or tell you how many times I cried (6, I think) but I will tell you how grateful I am for prayer and feeling my Heavenly Father's love. That's how I survived the last five days.

I miss my sis

As many of you know. My sister recently got married to the love of her life. As she is happily enjoying married life, I am left, well, missing her. You heard me. I just said that. I'm like a lost little kid without that girl. So if you've seen her, could you tell her to call me?

One year older.


Today is my parent's 11 year anniversary of tying the bonds of matrimony. 11 years ago today my dad accepted not only my mom as his wife, but my sister and I as his daughters. Not once in 11 years have I felt like he wasn't my own flesh and blood (other than the time he brought a 20 pound fish through the house on his finger and a hotdog in the other hand.. actually, come to think of it, that may just prove he IS my flesh and blood). Lucky us, and lucky him! He snagged an amazing women who I am proud to call my mother. So here's to you mom and dad! Hope your day is full of romance and love!

Click HERE!

I'm not very good at all the ins and outs of blogging. Like how do you make a cool banner for the top of your page? Or make words big or make them move around the page? These types of questions leave me clueless and with a boring blog. But the question that has puzzled me the most is how to type the following sentence in my blog "to see this click here" and make the word "here" click-able. huh? Well I decided to figure it out for the sake of something I want you all to click on...

My step brother spencer and his wife erin are anxiously waiting to add a new child to their family through adoption. I cannot think of a more deserving family. The way they raise their children (milo & issy, so cute!) is nothing short of amazing. I hope that someday my kids will be as awesome as theirs are. Anyway- I just wanted to link their adoption site right here. Feel free to link it to your blog!

Down on Bended Knee!

No there was no proposal. Even better! I went to boys 2 men! Curtis and I and a few friends kicked it old school last night and boy was it memorable! Below is a few pictures I stole (thanks Lind!) from the event.


Me and Lindey with some awesome glow-in-the-dark bracelets. No outdoor concert would be complete without one.. or five.

Curtis and I posing for the camera.


Boys 2 Men at their finest!

A gift from me to me

So I bought myself a present. No, not a bike. I bought myself a brand new mac book. And I'm so happy I did! It is so cute and perfect. I love it. 

And for all you blog stalkers of mine. I'm seriously seriously going to use my new computer to spread more of my life through blogging. I half promise.

Turns out...

I am original. Unlike abbie I am unable to blog for thirty days straight. So instead I will ATTEMPT to blog.... often. 

So the next few blogs will most about, what else, The Wedding (notice the capitalization) and other events relating.

First, the bachelorette party:

I was really really really excited for my sister and the fact that she asked me to be the maid-of-honor. So I took it upon myself to throw a trashy PG-13 boarder line R rated bachelorette party.  And boy was it all that I could have hoped for AND more. It was too fun. Seriously. Like a blast. The day began with pedicures and ended with a trip to the bowling alley. Innocent you say? Uh, no, I say. Unfortunately I have no pictures to prove it (sorry erin) but I will hopefully have some to post soon. (again, sorry erin)


Sunday, August 17, 2008

I'm not original

So my (step, half, cute, fun) sister abbie is doing a blog-a-day for thirty days. So I am going to copy her! Day 1... check!

Wimbledon

Just call me venus and serena's long lost sister...

Today I began my first day of tennis lessons with my friends Mallory and Caitlyn. I would recommend picking up tennis to anyone. In this lesson we learned how to front hand (is that what it's called cat?) the ball and play queen of the court. I was queen twice, so exhilarating. I'll keep you posted on my progress.

Take two

For those of you who cannot see my baby. Here it is.. hopefully. I am computer illiterate.

Electra's Blanc Et Noir is one classy cruiser!

Can't stop thinkin' 'bout you

I'm in love...
or rather, I'm obsessed. Like literally. 
For those of you who know me or have been around me any time within the past three months you know I cannot stop talking about getting a bike. When asked what is wrong, my usual reply is simply, bike. When curtis asks what I want for dinner I say, bike. I dream about bikes. I get upset when I see people on bikes (that is no joke, I sometimes find myself getting teary-eyed). I get headaches thinking about which bike would be my perfect fit. Well my headache subsided when I saw this little beauty strolling with an undeserving girl.

I trust all of you to not steal this bike from me. I must save my whole life to buy it. I give permission only to lindey who helped me find out where I could purchase.

My Sister The Bridal



This last Tuesday my sister, my mom, and I made the trip up to Sugarhouse for my sisters bridals. I only teared up once and the rest of the time it was all business. Being the maid of honor it was naturally my responsibility to make sure the bride looked her best at all times. And believe me, I performed. Or rather, she performed. She looked GORGEOUS! She even looked great in the pictures I snagged with my digital camera. 

Below is me preforming my maid of honor duties. Protecting the dress from the dirty floor and holding the boquet. 



That's the most you'll see of the bride on this blog. I am trying to respect Tyler's (erika's fiance) wishes to not see erika in her dress until the day of. So I'll post pictures of my mom and me. :)






All in all the day was successful. I'm ready for a wedding!

I'm blogging!

Hello! Since finals are this week I figured that, naturally, I would write a new post for my blog! So here I am, for all of you who have been wishing and hoping for me to post! Now I come across my next obstacle, what to write about? Dang! I think I'm just meant to be a blog hopper for the rest of my life, and not a contributor. Sorry everyone. I tried. Talk to you next month! Farewell!

Spring Break!!

Last weekend Curtis and I went to vegas!! Woo! We partied the whole time... well actually not really. We went shopping and loved it!!.. again actually not really.. I went shopping while curtis pretended he was loving it. We also went to two of the BYU games, which, sadly, they lost.. which I only care that they lost cause curtis almost cried. It was a short trip, but so fun!!

blogs are for married people with kids

Don't you think? Cause really, what am I going to put up here. Probably nothing. Cause I don't have kids that do cute things or husbands that do weird things. But my friends from work told me I need a blog. So I'm gonna blog it up.
