Keeping in touch with good friends :)

I'm a little behind on posting this, but I guess its better late then never, right?
Friday night Bethie and I got together with 2 of our friends that we used to work with. It was awesome to see them. Autumn just had a baby and you wouldn't have known, she looked great! And Shelly...this girl is amazing! She's lost 31 pounds since January on weight watchers. Way to go Shell, you look awesome! :) It was great to relax and catch up on everything.


From bottom left..Bethie,myself,Autumn and Shelly.



We finally made it on Saturday to.........


Yeah,this store is pretty much AMAZING! We walked in there thinking we would be out of there in like a half hour to an hour...NOT!!! We were in there for 2 loooong hours..hehe. Anything you can think of this store has and in any shape or form that you would like it in. WOW! I found my "dream" kitchen in there, but I was stupid and didn't take a picture of it. So when we go back...hehe I will definetely take one. I just bought a stovetop grill and some measuring spoons, nothing too dramatic. If you haven't been there, you should check it out! I plan on going back soon I hope.
Tomorrow is weigh in again. I didn't post anything 2 weeks ago because I didn't really have anything to post and besides I gained a pound. But last week I lost .2 and I'm hoping for more this week. We shall see. Keep your fingers crossed for me. :)

Our ROCKIN' Easter Weekend!

We took a trip to Logan again for Easter weekend because Bethies Grandpa wasn't doing very well. We spent Friday with him and Monday morning he passed away. We are happy that he is no longer suffering and free from pain.

Saturday we spent some time with Becky,Tim, and Carrie. We went to breakfast and then spent some time at Borders Bookstore, but it didn't take Tim long to try and herd us all out of there. I guess books are not his thing. He should of spent some time with Karl and Derek, guns would of kept him busy for a while longer. After that we went to Sams Club on the hunt for some packages of gum for Derek and while on the search, we located the best kid candy ever! FUN-DIP...yum! Carrie insisted that Tim buy her some because its her favorite.



Karl and Beckys house was sounding good about now after running around so much. So we decided to go there and just hang out, take a nap, and of course play a little GUITAR HERO. I love this game, it ROCKS!




This is me concentrating so so HARD! Check out my eyes...HAHA!










Here I am again with Tim playing along and Becky doing I don't know what! LOL









Here is Mike and Carly joining in on the fun. They were awesome!








We also played Singstar. If you like Karioke, you'll LOVE this. Carly and Becky..this one is for you! :) Sorry its kind of dark, but at least you can at least hear them ROCKIN' out!




Here is Mike and Carly singing Singstar!

Saturday night we met everyone at Golden Corral for dinner. It was packed of course but the salad and everything was YUMMY! Here is a cute pic of Holly at dinner. :)




It was a fun yet busy weekend in Logan. It was great to see everyone!

We left Sunday afternoon from Logan and headed home. My family was having Easter dinner and I wanted to spend a little time with them. The weather was great so Bethie and I walked to and from my brothers house. :)


Here is a picture of my beautiful niece Brittany. LOVE HER!


This is my silly mom. She wouldn't let me take a picture of her, so here she is behind the camera getting a shot of me haha!

My dad wouldn't let me get a pic of him either. This is the best I could do. Check out the tooth pick in his mouth LOL

Here is Kim,Stacey and Brit working on some wood candle holders for Kaseys baseball auction.

Here is my nephew Kasey and my soon to be step nephews, Tanner and Colby. Looks like they had a little too much to eat. :)

Thanks everyone for a great Easter this year! I hope you all had a good one too.

Sorry for the long post. Just a quick update on my weigh in for last week. I lost a whopping 2.4 pounds. Taking my total up to 12.4 pounds! :) I'm a little scared for this week with all the yummy food and candy that I consumed for Easter. It sure isn't easy when there is a holiday that rolls around like that.

When I went to my moms on Saturday to try out her new Cricut, I cut out these super cute flowers. I liked them tons because they look like Spring flowers. Anyways, Staceys birthday is tomorrow and I decided to use these flowers for her birthday card. Talk about super easy to make. Here is the finished product. :)

The Cricut Cutter!


OH MY HECK..Okay,so my mom has been debating on whether she should buy one of these cool Cricut Cutters or not. Well,today she gave in and bought one.I must say,this thing is AMAZING. If your into scrapbooking,making your own cards or anything that has to do with paper,it will do pretty much everything! Bethie and I made dinner tonite for my mom and dad and afterwards I was just playing around on the cutter,just to see what it really can do. I think I will be spending alot more time at moms now. :) So,you should check them out if your into this kind of stuff and if you get the chance to buy one,I will be spending some time at your house too..haha! :)

Jordan and Ashley..<3

We went to Jordan and Ashleys wedding reception last night in American Fork. They were married yesterday March 14,2008 in the Mount Timpangous Temple. I work with Jordan at Vantage. He is a neat kid. He makes me laugh at work by the little things he does and says. For instance...I was sitting at my desk building keypads and I heard someone calling my name. I looked up and there sat Jordan, with a blown up rubber glove that he had carefully drawn a face on, with his head pulled down in his shirt, while using the rubber glove for his head. That totally made my day! I was laughing so hard..LOL I don't know Ashley too well, but I've met her several times when she has came into Vantage to see Jordan. She looked so pretty in her wedding dress! Congratulations Jordan and Ashely!

Spring Fever!!!!


Okay, Oh my heck! I have spring fever oh SO bad!! This past week the weather has been SOOOOOOOOO nice! Wearing only a light jacket on my way out the door for work,and you know it going to be spring soon when you leave work and you have to have the windows rolled down. YEA! I love spring. :) Can't wait for the bar-b-cues,going to the scera shell,family get togethers and camping!

So, it was weigh in time again tonite, UGH! I think I dread this day every week,but who doesn't when your trying so hard to lose weight. The results are in...I didn't lose anything :( but the good thing is I didn't gain anything either. :) So frustrating sometimes, especially when you know your doing your best. But I do have to say I feel SOO much better losing 10 pounds!
