I CARRIED A WATERMELON...

So the other day I was talking to this really cute kid! I was so wrapped up in the fact that he was even talking to me that I said the dumbest thing. I kind of felt how Baby felt in Dirty Dancing when she says "I CARRIED A WATERMELON"! I guess you will just have to watch the clip to see the embarrassment in her face! I love this movie it is a true classic! Remember to pause my playlist so that you can get the full effect!

Benefit Diner

On Friday night my parents made us go to this benefit dinner where my dad had bought a table. It was a black and white party. It was a lot of fun getting ready. Jenna, Jordynn and I only stayed for dinner. The main reason that we went was because my aunt Marie was in charge of selling tables.

My sisters and I.

This is us girls with our Aunt Marie!

HELP!!

So my sisters and I went to this dinner tonight that was a black and white affair! Well we left our parents there and came home. I had taken my shoes off in the car cause lets face it after a night in stilettos your feet really hurt! Well we got home my sisters went in the house and I stayed behind trying to get my shoes back on and to clean out the car. Well Jenna opened the garage door and said HELP I can't get the alarm off. Well they were putting in the code and hitting STAY because they wanted to STAY home. They didn't think to turn it OFF. So I get inside turn off the alarm and then the phone rings it was the alarm company asking for the word code. WORD CODE I don't know any word code. Well because I didn't know the code they sent the cops to our house. Needless to say I now know the word code and the girls know now to hit the OFF button instead of STAY! I guess now you all know how blond we can be!

Just how much do I love American Idol...

During American Idol season 4 my mom and I got tickets to go to one of the live tapings of one of the "elimination" episodes. We waited outside for a long time. But it was well worth the wait because when we finally got in we were able to sit behind Nikko Smith and Anthony Federov (my personal favorite from season 4)! I found this picture on the American Idol website. That is me in the pink jacket and the profile of my mom! Well as with each coming week it makes me sad because someone has to go home on American Idol. I really love everyone who is in the top Ten. This week it was Chikezie who went home. I will agree is performance yesterday was not his best. I tried to post a video of my favorite performance but it wasn't working. So here is his not so good of a performance!

18 months of pictures

Ok so it is not really 18 months of pictures cause that would take forever! However here are some of the pictures from my mission I hope you like!

going to the zoo today!

Today Brooke took Ethan and Ashton to the zoo and invited me to come along. It was alot of fun. On the way up there Ashton kept asking when are we going to be at the JOO? It was pretty cute. We saw lions, tigers, and bears (OH MY)! Not to mention penguins, elephants, and even a baby giraffe. We saw a lot of fun animals in the short time that we were there! Here are some of the fun pictures that we took! Ashton was mad at me because I sat her down so that I could take a picture of them. So she decided not to look at the camera!
Mr Elephant or Mrs Elephant I didn't really get a good look ha ha!
Ethan, Ashton, and I! I love these two kids so MUCH:)
Hanging out by the penguins

The baby giraffe it was so cute.
Ashton, me, and two giraffes. Brooke asked me what pattern do you like better for your purse? The one on the left or the one on the right? She asked me this because she knows how BAD I want the giraffe print bag from Dooney and Burke. I will have to post a picture of it!
My munster named Ethan. I can't believe he is going to be SEVEN!
Brooke and sis/bit/miss (Ashton has so many nicknames)!
Yes I know I already posted this picture but I couldn't figure out how to delete it and I was to lazy to start all over! I hope you enjoyed looking at our trip to the JOO!

hang up the phone we have an ice cream CRISIS

You are all probably wondering what the HECK this is going to be about. So I guess I will tell you in full detailed fashion as only I would do:)! So today my little sister Jordynn got her wisdom teeth out (no worries she made it fine and is only lacking wisdom HA HA). Well my parents had to head up to Idaho for a rodeo that Jenna is in. Well I being the GREAT big sister that I am, am taking great care of her. Well this evening I gave her a pain pill and slipped out to go to the mall to help out the "Easter bunny"(because he is at the rodeo as well). My friend Brooke came with me and as we were on our way home we called Jordynn and asked her if she needed anything. Being a girl after my own heart she wanted Ice Cream. So we go to Jakes Over the Top and order some dinner for those who can still chew and Ice Cream for those who can't. Well here is where the story gets good. We pull up to the window and they hand us the Chocolate Banana Shake and then they close the window(because apparently the rest of the food was still being cooked) as it proceeds to melt on us. Here is where the CRISIS comes in Brooke's stomach is one for not eating ice cream and I have cut it out of my diet. So we were each going you lick it, no you lick it, no you it hurts my stomach, no you it will ruin my diet(as if eating a fast food hamburger isn't already doing the trick). Well in the middle of all this Brooke's calls and the situation gets just a little bit runny on us. It wasn't until 5 minutes later that they shake had seriously started to melt that we got our food and another 5 minutes after that we got home to get the melting shake in the freezer. So this post is kind of random but for those of you who know me ever so well will totally understand for those of you who know how Brooke and I act together than maybe you will get a kick out of it. If not you can always file it under the had to be there category!

TRAILER FOR TWILIGHT

Ok so I know that I have already posted something today but as I was looking for something I can across the trailer for the movie TWILIGHT. Totally obsessed with the book so now I am counting down the days until the movie comes out. For those of you who are TWILIGHT fans I hope that you enjoy this. Remember to pause the music to the right or else it will sound really funny!

HEY JUDE

This e-mail was sent to me and I think that it is so stinking cute! This little baby sure knows how to rock it! I also think that it is kind of funny that he/she (don't quite know) is speaking in Koren or something like that but can sing amazingly in English. Once you watch you will understand.

American Idol

I love American Idol. I have really enjoyed past seasons but this season is one of my favorites! I love Jason Castro I don't know why really maybe its his eyes and his smile not to mention his VOICE is like a dream. Last week Simon said that his performance was like something that you would hear sung in a college dorm or something like that. My response is Jason you can sing this song in my dorm room any time you want( I hope that when people read this they won't get the wrong idea)! Well I think that after every Wednesday elimination show I will post the contestant who was kicked off. Last week it was David Hernandez he is a very pretty boy with a great voice but I am sorry I don't have a video of him! If you want to play the video just pause my music play list and click play on the video! Make sure the sound is turned up. I hope you all enjoy him as much as I do. If you don't please keep that to your self you wouldn't want to break my heart :)!

DISNEY PRINCESS ON ICE

So on Friday night I learned that I am not ready to be a parent! Jenna (my sister) and I took two four year little girls to go and see Disney Princess Wishes. They were so cute but they sure were busy. I went and got them snow cones and most it ended up on my lap! Ashton the one in the pig-tails sat on my lap and was so cute, she was watching the ice skaters so closely and when she would see something that was cool she would just start clapping. Also when the princesses would skate by and wave Ashton would wave back. She was so stinkin cute. However I think that she was tired because she kept asking when it was over. A couple of times she almost dosed off but then something exciting would happen! Sydney she sat on Jenna's lap and she knew every single princess that would come out before they actually came out. For example there were are these pirates on the ice and I was like oh it must be Peter Pan (um hello he is not a princess)! Well we asked Sydney and she was like it is Ariel well sure enough it was the Little Mermaid. Her favorite song was "Kiss the Girl". Maybe we should warn her parents! All in all is was a very fun night and a great way to end a crazy week! Me and the Girls!
Jenna and the girls along with their souvenirs!
Ashton and I!

SPRING BREAK

Well for Spring Break this year I went back to Arizona with my parents. We went and visited some of the people that I just love. I wish I had taken more pictures but I didn't. Which is very weird considering the fact that I am a scrapbooker! Oh well what am I going to do about it now? We left on Saturday and drove all night. Seriously that is no joke. At one point I was driving through the reservation and it was about 1:30 in the morning and there was a guy just walking on the side of the rode. It scared me I am not going to lie! On Sunday we went to Church with Angie and Napoleon and then back over to there house for some yummy food. On Monday we took Edith out to lunch. I then stopped by the mission office and saw Elder Watters. He was one of my last Zone Leaders he is now an AP and is going home in two weeks. After the mission office we went over to President and Sister Gills house and our last stop of the day was going to dinner with Christine at Dillon's. Probably my favorite place to eat in Surprise. On Tuesday we stopped by North Phoenix at the sister's apartment then headed up to Flagstaff where we had dinner with the Ponds and the Coopers. My mom and I also stopped by my first apartment and talked with the family that I lived with. As we were headed up to the Grand Canyon on Wednesday we got a phone call saying that my cousin who lives with us was in a bad accident and was being life lighted to the hospital. Needless to say we turned around and cut our trip short. I did get some pictures taken hope you enjoy! I took this picture of myself! I did a pretty good job!
My mom has never seen so many cacti! So we had to stop on the side of the rode and let her take a picture with one!
Here is the Pond family!
This is part of the Grand Canyon. You have to cross a bridge called the Navajo bridge.
Another self portrait of me standing on the bridge!

We have PUPPIES!

Well the puppies have arrived! They were born yesterday March 4th all morning long. Did I mention that there were TEN of them. No word on how many female or male but what I do know is that there are seven yellow, one chocolate, and two black. All are labs. I have only seen them in picture but I am on my way down to Kaysville tomorrow and I am SO excited to see them.

OH MY...LOVE KYLE KORVER

So I have not always been a huge basketball fan. I do support my Utah Jazz but they weren't always doing that great. Well on New Years Eve the Jazz made this best trade EVER. They traded Gordon G. for Kyle Korver who I am seriously in LOVE with. I am watching the news and he is getting interviewed so I need to pause...Ok his interview is over! He had a great game he scored 17 points off the bench. I know that this picture is of him in his 76's uniform however do you see the bicep. SWOON! Ok so I think that is enough this. Oh one last thing I am trying to get tickets to go to a game. I am going to make a sign if anyone has any good ideas on a sign that I can make declaring my love for this amazing forward let me know!

SPRING IS NEAR...

Well while mother nature may not always be right on the mark when it comes to warm weather. Hence Saturday's crazy snow storm. My animals are always on target. Yesterday one of our many cats had kittens. Seven to be exact; four white and 3 black. I think that makes our total number of cats to be 10 plus the other litter of kittens that we can't find(our cats tend to have them in the barn up in the hay loft)! By the end of this week we should have puppies and in just a month or two we will have a couple of baby horses running around. I always love when we have babies around here because that means spring is on its way!
