Another Favorite

I love music. My current favorite artist is Kate Voegele. I was introduced to her because she was a guest artist on One Tree Hill..my favorite show..Anyway, I downloaded her CD off of Itunes and every song is amazing. I highly recommend it to everyone. This song is a cover song, but I love it. Here it is.

You Know You Are an 80's Child If...

You know every cast member's name from the original cast of "Saved By The Bell".

If you have ever finished a sentence with the word "SIKE!"

You wanted to be a Goonie. (Lexi!)
You owned a banana clip.
You remember watching "Fraggle Rock".

You got super-excited when it was Oregon Trail day in computer class at school.
You played the game MASH.

I Need a Camera!

No Camera=Boring Blog. I feel like I can't just post words for some reason. Pictures just make life's stories so much more enjoyable. I am hoping to get a camera for my birthday in July, so I guess I will just have to try to be entertaining on my own.
A few good things have happened for us lately. First, I totally became the coolest wife ever when I suprised Berkeley with a Wii and Guitar Hero for NO REASON. I don't care who you are, that's pretty cool. He had no idea I had been saving for it. Actually, we had many coversations in which he would express his desire for a wii and I would go on and on about how it is not a necessary way to spend our money...little did he know one was being shipped to us! I bought the stuff on E-Bay for a steal of a deal. Berkeley was pretty stoked about it. He likes to rock out and I am officially a bowling pro. Our next purchase..Mario Kart. Hooray!
Next, Berkeley tried out for Tour Team at UVSC...or UVU now. For those of you who don't know, this is the most elite ballroom dance team at UVU. He has been working his way up to this piont the last few semesters so I am so happy and excited and proud of him!! This will be a great opportunity for him. Also, Berkeley and I are going to start private ballroom lessons together this coming Saturday. I want to be able to dance well so I can be a good partner for him but don't have any time in my school schedule to fit dance classes in there. This will be a good way for us to spend time together and for me to improve upon my own dance skills...which are seriously lacking...
All is going well with us here in happy valley. Life is great! Oh....and it is finally summer!!

Celebrities Without Make-Up

I'm a silly girl. Sometimes I get discouraged while watching movies or flipping through magazines and get caught up in thinking "Why can't I be THAT pretty?" This makes me feel better.

Tagged. Yup.

I got tagged! I put this off but then my friend Shalantie (holla!) filled hers out so I thought I would do mine as well. Here we go…
3 joys, 3 fears, 3 goals, 3 current obsessions/collections, 3 surprising facts about yourself.

Joys~
#1~ Family. I love my family so much. I regret the fact that I don’t talk to them or see them often enough. I have learned something important from each on one of my siblings and innumerable things from my parents. Berkeley too: He is the best thing that ever happened to me.
#2~ The true gospel of Jesus Christ. I am in awe at the simplicity of the gospel but the immensity of the impact it has on my life every day. I am who I am because I have a testimony of the gospel.
#3~ Climbing into a warm, soft, cozy bed on Friday night and knowing I do not have to get up for anything the next morning. Not so serious as number 1 and 2, but it deserves a place in my top three joys list.

Fears~
#1~ Sickness. I hate being sick and I hate being around sick people especially when vomiting is involved. Weird, I know. I don’t know how I will ever be a good mother to sick children.
#2~ Singing in public. I do it, but I am terrified every time. I feel like I might faint and have a heart attack at the same time.
#3~ I think my biggest fear is losing a family member or close friend.

Goals~
#1~ I want to learn how to do ballroom dance so I can be a good dance partner for Berkeley.
#2~ I want to become a scriptorian (is that the word for someone who is very knowledgeable when it comes to scriptures? If so, then that’s what I mean.), but I better start with studying my scriptures every day first.
#3~I want to graduate from college…even if it kills me.

Obsessions~
#1 ~ Working out. I go through phases with exercise but right now I go to the gym every morning before work. I just keep thinking about putting a bathing suit on soon and feeling good in it.
#2~ Silk Soy chocolate milk. Thanks to my sister-in-law Dorothy, I can’t get enough of this stuff. You all should try it.
#3~ Cookouts and smores. Since we built a fire-pit at our apartment complex, we have cooked out and made smores more in the last three weeks than I have ever done in a whole summer. Good food.

Surprising facts about me~
#1~ I drive a motorized scooter to work every day now. That is fun and interesting. You should see my hair every day. SO pretty.
#2~ I won 1st place in the state of Utah and 3rd place in the nation in a dental assisting competition for HOSA. That is not bragging. It is nerdy.
#3~ I have a deformity with both of my feet. My 4th toe is in the wrong place and is much shorter than all the rest. Yeah it is really ugly. At least it is not a super visible part of my body, I guess.

Well, that’s all. I hope you found that interesting. If so, then you should hang out with me because there is plenty more where this came from.

PG-13 but so funny! At least I thought so!

Q:What is smaller than a teeny weeny fly?



A: A fly's teeny weeny.


Haha! Don't act like you didn't find that funny! Go ahead and laugh!
