Granters


I stole this picture from my sister-in-law- Karalee's blog because our little nephew Grant is sooo funny, I just had to share it! Isn't he adorable? I guess this was his reaction to fire works! haha. Dan and I laughed so hard when we saw this. I wish we lived closer to the Taylors so we could play more and see more of this handsome little man!

Lisboa to Dansic

Oh happy day I only have 14 days left until graduation and only 5 actual classes left to attend.

This last weekend the boy and I went down to UTAH to look for jobs, apartments, and to play with the family. It was a success as far as playing with the fam but no luck on jobs or apts. I did get to go talk to a guy that has TONS of connections all over Utah and he helped me out big time so hopefully somebody will start hiring soon!

I think we played Ticket to Ride two thousand times. We stayed up soo late every night playing. It was awesome. I love that game. Just talking about it makes me want to go and play.

FOURTH OF JULY. We got to go to a fireworks show in Riverton, near my sisters house. It was a good show. We got to the park 2 hours early and found absolutely no parking and way too many people so we went to a nearby church, set up there and enjoyed the fireworks. We played scategories before it got dark. That game is so much fun but I can't play with Dan or my brothers because they never will count my answers. I think I am incredibly creative but apparently they do not. After that game, my little sister Jessie and I took turns doing monologues for the family. How embarrassing of us. The fireworks were great- my neices were hilarious. They LOVED them! Cam kept running from person to person to tell us each about the fireworks she saw and then she would get distracted by something on the ground for a few minutes, then remember the fireworks and start running around again. She told her mom, "I love the fireworks and the fireworks love me". It was great.


Speaking about my neices... look how cute they are, all ready for pool time. Kind of struggled getting a picture where they were all looking and happy.


So Whittney and I have officially started making clothes. It is so much fun! I'm not that great at it but I love it. We have mostly made skirts, but we are starting to make shirts and dresses as well. Since I got a sewing machine for my birthday, all I wanna do is sew, sew, sew. When I first opened it, I was playing around on it and ended up staying up all night because I was having too much fun to stop. We'll have to take some pics and showcase our work sometime :)

Happy Procreation Season. Everyone I know is pregnant (I am not) or just barely had a baby. I'm so excited for all you baby havers!

NYC here we come in 20 days. I can NOT wait.
ECLIPSE. Naturally, the girlies in my famdamily got together to go see it. Can I just say I absolutely loved it! They finally got Edwards makeup right, Bella did much better, and they did pretty good at staying with the book. I have loved every film so far of this series but mostly because I love the books so much. This movie was just done so much better and was so good. Jacob is so hot, its hard not to be distracted by those muscles. mmmmm. I really liked how they had more of the Seattle vamps in this... going along with Steph Meyer's new book The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. I loved that book, and I'm glad they included some of it in the movie. Anyway, I loved it and I love Edward.

murph!


Irksome...
1. BAD FOOD. All of our food always goes bad before we eat it. It is depressing. It is already difficult to shop for only two people but we only eat at home a few times a week because of work so our food goes bad extra fast. I feel like we throw away so much! I think I need to start only buying frozen foods...
2. RAIN. It has been raining for what feels like years here. I'm so excited for summer to actually start and not just tease me. It will be warm for a few hours a day and then it is gloomy and rainy. Rain Rain Go Away!
3. SCHOOL. My Anat and Phys class is REALLY hard.
4. JOBLESS. We are moving to Utah soon and we still have no jobs! Yikes. It makes me nervous because I have been hearing so many people say it is impossible to get a job right now! If anyone knows of a good job in Salt lake...especially in Advertising... let me know!

Oh sweet HAPPINESS

1. GRADUATION. I graduate in less then TWO MONTHS! I can handle that!
2. GLEE. Lately I have become obsessed. I love it times ten. I watched all the episodes on the DVD and then caught up on Hulu so now I can watch it on TV. Ever since I started watching it, I sing ALL the time. I'm not a good singer at all but I gotta practice in order to be part of the cast next season.
3. HAIRCUT. I chopped my hair off. Well actually my sister chopped my hair off. But she cut about 6 inches! It was time for a change so snip snip. I'll post pics soon.
4. FOOTBALL. Flag football season has begun and we have an awesome team. We are The MonSTARS. It is safe to say we will be winners.
5. ST. GEORGE. A few weekends ago, Dan and I went to St. George with my brother and some cousins. Being in the glorious 80 degree weather and spending the majority of my time by the pool and Dan's on the golf course made me realize that one day we need to live in a place like that. I love the heat and being outside.
6. PRIMARY. Last Sunday, one of our primary girls was talking to me about my hair cut. Then she said to Dan, "I like your hair cut too! It looks like a peninsula!" Which is hilarious because he didn't get a haircut, he just has receding hair lines. Bahaha.
7. EDAMAME. I love edamame beans. I have been eating tons and tons of them. Soo yummy.
8. ROLLER BLADING. I went roller blading last night with my cousin and my friend Bri. I haven't done that in a really long time but it is awesome. My cousin has a warehouse that is so perfect to roller blade in, I think we will have to initiate some disco roller parties in there soon.
9. NEW YORK. We are going to New York at the end of July to see the sites and visit our Youngberg friends. I am so excited! Dan has never been so it will be great! I am hoping we will be able to go and see WICKED and maybe another show too. Can't wait!
10. DAN. Dan is the best. No matter what is happening in our lives he always is so positive and makes me so happy. He's the coolest of the cool.


PS: It is already the end of MAY? That is crazy. Time must fly when you're having fun.

Newest Nephew!

1000 Business Cards

A few weeks ago I went down to Utah to sell our June stuff in a "What Women Want" Expo. We shared a booth with my sis and my cousins. Whittney and I were selling our suitcases, clips, headbands, sweater headbands, and rings. My sister Erin sold her adorable tutus and carseat covers. My cousins sold their headbands and gorgeous jewelry. It was such a blast. We had SO much stuff, it was crazy. The second day we organized it a bit better than what you see in the pic. We were actually only supposed to have HALF this area, but the company that was next to us never showed up. SCORE! It was really lucky because there is no way we could have fit all of our merchandise into half of that. It was our first time ever doing anything like this and it went really well! It was a great experience and now we know what to expect the next time we do this.

If any of my peeps would like anything, I'll give you better prices. Etsy prices are a little bit higher because of the costs of posting. But normally we sell our headbands for $15. Let me know what you think.
