The Lucky One!

Friday evening- Spencer and I relaxed for a little while. Then around 8pm I went to Olive Garden to Suki’s bridal shower. We were there until like 1030. We had a lot of fun though. Suki opened presents and we had a few laughs. Ate some really good food and some amazing cake that Kasey brought for us. Then I hit the sack when I got home.

Saturday- Around 10:30am Suki picked me up and we went to Farmington to get her bridals done by Laura. It was a HOT day but we managed to get through it with some shade and laughter. I can’t wait to see how the pictures turned out. We had a lot of fun. And later I realized I got burnt on my neck (splotchy looking) and a little on my nose. Then Suki and I went to South Jordan to watch “The Lucky One”! It wasn’t too bad, I didn’t cry but that’s only cuz Suki and I kept talking so I wasn’t super focused or I almost would cry and she would look over at me and say “are you crying yet?” so then I couldn’t cry. That jerk lol But it was a fairly good movie only there wasn’t much of a climax I felt. They all recovered from situations before you even had a chance to really cry or get upset over it. (I won’t say any details because I don’t want to ruin it) Then I met up with Spencer in West Jordan to see say hi to his friend at their wedding reception. We were there for like 5 minutes then we went back home. Spencer got me flowers and reeses sticks and also new windshield wipers! And I retried on my wedding dress…. 1. Its pretty loose in some places which makes me SUPER happy 2. I wish I hadn’t worn the slip underneath because than the dresses wouldn’t have been so puffy. Too late now. Other than that it was a crazy busy day.

Sunday- It took me longer to get ready in the morning than normal so I was almost late for church. It was our ward conference. It was kind of like normal church though especially being in the nursery. We had 5 boys and 1 girl. But for the most part everyone got along pretty well. And we had very few tears =] we blew up a little balloon for each of them and they had fun throwing them around. Then afterwards I went home and ate lunch while watching Phenias and Ferb on Netflix. Around 3 Spencer and I went to a retirement home with 2 other couples from our ward to give them the sacrament. It was a pretty good experience especially when one of the people bore their testimony it was really powerful. Other than that Spencer and I played a little bit of Sims and watched TV mostly yesterday.

Monday- We woke up later than usually but I think it was good for us. Than we got ready for work. Later tonight I plan on going to Walgreens to print some pictures off and do the dishes! And of course watched some general conference for FHE. Other than that we don’t have a whole bunch planned for today. I did get in the car for work and noticed the tank was ON empty so I hurried to the gas station before work. Thankfully I made it and I wasn’t super late for work. I’ve never had the tank be that low before I like to be as full as possible. Now typing up things for work, it’s a little frustrating and tiresome. Hopefully we can finish it all up soon enough. My break will be reading my book or typing up papers. I put some Aloe stuff on my neck but it is still kind of itchy so I’m trying not to scratch it. Blah!

Have a great Monday!

Celtic Woman

Thursday evening-

After work Spencer and I went home and changed for the concert. Then went out to Olive Garden to eat dinner. Now I have some thoughts I would love to tell restaurants but I don’t think they can do much about it. 1. I like olive gardens breadsticks except they have WAY too much garlic on them. 2. If you can have a small stomach menu or skinny peoples menu. Because I can only eat 1 half of a meal but then they give you all of these sides you can’t say no too. So it’s a complete WASTE of money and food. I don’t think its right for people that don’t eat a whole bunch to have to pay for extra food that won’t be eaten. For example I got spaghetti and meatballs. Which was good but first you get breadsticks and then a soup or a salad. But I don’t want a soup or salad I just want my meal and like the breadsticks. Spencer usually eats it for me but then he can’t always eat his whole meal either. I wish there was a meal in between kids and adult. One time I went to Applebee’s and I told him I wanted the steak but I wont eat the sides so fine if I have to pay for them but I don’t want them on my plate. So he did so and he was nice enough to delete the charge for the sides so I didn’t have to pay. Now it was probably because he was flirting with me that’s what my friends said. This was like 4 years ago that happened. But it was really nice and I wish everyone could do that. I feel bad enough I can barely eat my whole main meal.
Anyways then we hurried over to the Energy Solutions Arena to watch the Celtic Woman Concert! I have never been to one of their concerts before but I watched some DVD’s to prepare myself of what they sing and do and all of that. We had fairly good seats but we were fair enough away that I couldn’t see who was singing or not because I couldn’t tell if their mouth was moving or not. And the lighting wasn’t very good when it was a spot light; it wasn’t bright enough for me to see. But they sang beautifully as always. They did a pretty good job and their very friendly people but sometimes its hard to understand what they are saying when they speak to us in their accent. Lol and I LOVE their dresses! And the one violist is CRAZY, she just jumps and leaps and dances ALL over the place which is nice because it gets people excited and she is really good. But I love lyrics to songs so she isn’t my favorite person. I think Chloe sings really good especially for her age, she is 22 now but she has been in their since she was like 15 or 16. It was a great experience. We got home about 1030 and got ready for bed.


Friday-

Spencer and I got up around our normal 8:30ish time. We don’t even use alarms we just automatically get up then. Of course once again we played Sims. Oh and my Sims person had a baby boy too, for heaven sakes! Do they ever have baby girls? Then I got ready for the day and packed our lunches and watched some Rachel Ray. Today at work there isn’t too much going on so we shall see. I will just read more about TMJ probably and type up some papers.

Later around 8pm is Suki’s real bridal shower. Then Saturday I will go see “The Lucky one” and maybe get a massage and then got to a ward party and one of Spencer’s friends wedding reception. Then Sunday after church hopefully Mariah will come over!

Yay its Friday! Have a great weekend

And on a side note I feel like watching Titanic sometime soon again.

Waiting for responses

Wednesday evening-

Spencer had to hurry to the church for meetings. So I watched some TV shows on Hulu for a little while.  Then I did some dishes and vacuumed the floors and then swept and mopped the floors. Then decided to play some Sims for a little bit while I waited for Spencer. He called our landlord about getting a cat and he said he’d have to ask his partner over the apartments his opinion. So we are waiting for a call back on that. I’m not sure when that is going to be but I would like to get one in the next two weeks if we are allowed to get a cat. Spencer came home and I finished up Sims. Then we ate some ice cream and watched Mr. Deeds on Netflix. It wasn’t too bad of a movie, I had never heard of it before. Then we got to bed around 11pm.


Thursday-

We woke up around our usual 8:30 and played Sims like usual in the morning. We had some cereal and just kept playing. My Sims is pregnant. Man if only pregnancy really went that fast haha
Other than that I took my vitamin pills this morning and packed my lunch for work. Than Spencer and I relaxed until it was time for him to walk to work and me to drive to work. We said our goodbyes.

After I pick him up after work we plan to go home quick to do a few things. Than go out to eat somewhere than the Celtic Woman Concert tonight at 8pm! It will be really nice but it will be kind of late when it’s done.

Other than that stuff I’m just trying to be patient for responses. 1. To hopefully get a response from 2 job offers I applied to, but I have not idea when I will get a response 2. From our landlord about a kitty.

Now just my normal book reading, and typing up papers for the day. How exciting! Lol

Have a wonderful Thursday!

10 month Anniversary

Tuesday evening-

Spencer and I came home from work and made pork chops for dinner. Then played some Sims for a little while. Later we went to Smith’s to get some much needed groceries. And we bought Sushi so I could try some. When we got home I put away the groceries and tried some of the sushi… GROSS! Lol but Spencer likes the California Roll type that we got so he just eats it.
Then we went to playing Sims again so we need more to do lol
We read our books before going to bed around 11.


Wednesday-

It’s our 10 month Anniversary! =]
I deleted Sims Free Play on my phone because it was beginning to be too much. Then we played Sims this morning and got our lunches ready. We talked about maybe calling our Landlord and re asking if we can have a cat. But maybe tell him he can keep our deposit when we leave and we will keep the cat in the bathroom while we are gone and get the carpet deep cleaned when we leave. We need something else living in that house because we talk to our stuffed animals like they are real pets. I don’t want to become a crazy person. Then it’s raining today but I don’t mind too much. Spencer has meetings tonight and then we plan on cleaning and not playing Sims tonight. We will watch TV or doing something else we need a break lol
My cold is slowly going away so that’s pretty nice. Other than that I plan to eat lots of fruits I brought and my carrots. Then type up some pages and read some of my books! I need to get back to reading The TMJ healing plan book so I can start changing a few things. I hope we can get a pet!!! If not then I will just deal with it.

Have a fantastic Wednesday!

Sims baby boy

Monday evening-

I played Sims on my phone ALL day at work. The time really flew by. Then Spencer and I made spaghetti for dinner and watched one of the general conference talks for FHE. Then I applied for a job at ITT Exelis, it requires only a High School degree and I know how to do most of the things. There are a few I wouldn’t know how to do unless they explained to me how their system works. It would keep me pretty busy so we shall see how that turns out. It would be nice to have a full time job for once. Then Spencer and I mostly played Sims all night =]


Tuesday-

We got up and hurried to the laundry mat to do our laundry for the week. It took about an hour or so. Then I came home and did dishes while Spencer got ready for the day. Then put our clean clothes away and packed my snacks for the day. We received some nice rain this morning, more than we probably did that weekend it said it would rain a lot.
Other than that I plan to type up a few things, read some books, and play Sims on my phone! Woot Woot

I LOVE music! =]

Oh so Spencer is playing Sims 3 and it’s our family, so him and I. And the Sims I got pregnant. She actually threw up in the toilet, and gets bigger and waddles. And you actually go to the hospital to have the baby. It’s so much more complex than it was in Sims 1. I think its cool they get bigger though (and its not a full 9 months of course but still). It’s pretty funny, so our Sims family had a baby boy and we named him Bentley. I just think it’s so funny.

Anyways enjoy your day!

What woman want expo

Friday evening-

We ordered Dominos Pizza for dinner. Then we watched some TV shows and relaxed. Basically I should have taken a short nap before going to do the temple cleaning. Either way it was a pretty good experience. I mainly just did dusting and sanitizing. They had 17 more people than expected so we got a lot done in a reasonable amount of time. We started around 10pm and ended around 12am. It was weird to be in the temple that late but it was a calming experience.
We came home and pretty much went straight to bed, around 1am.

Saturday-

We got up around 9am and slowly got ready for the morning. We went to Jessica’s house to meet up with them and my parents. Jessica, my mom, and I went to “What woman want expo thing”. We met up with my friend Channelle. It took up maybe an hour and a half to walk through the whole thing. It was packed! We signed up for all sorts of packages to win. Hopefully I will win something cool. Than just sampled a few things. I did buy this whisk, it’s so cool! All you do is push up and down and it whips things up in half the time. I was pretty tired and we finished so we left. As we walked out it started raining hard and hailing. We made it through finally. And shortly after meeting up with the guys we all parted our separate ways. Then Spencer and I relaxed and did a few things. We ended up watching some TV and towards the end of the night I played Sims 3 on our play station. It’s been awhile since I’ve played it. We got to bed a little later.

Sunday-

I started having cold symptoms. I had a sore throat, a cough, a runny nose, and cramps from my period. It was a rough morning. But I was able to get ready and head to church.
Nursery wasn’t too bad but it was a lot louder today than past weeks. But we eventually got through it. I did the lesson on the scriptures. And we took them for a walk around the building since it wasn’t to bad outside and they had the wiggles. Other than a few kids crying nothing crazy happened. Then I went home and skyped with Bishop Salisbury! It’s been awhile and it was nice to chat. We caught up in about an hour or so. Then Spencer came home and we said goodbye. Then soon after we made lunch/dinner and watched Phineas and Ferb. (Hopefully I spelled that right). Then I took a 3 hour nap, not meaning too. Spencer did the dishes again, how sweet of him!! Then we snacked on and off and started to play Sims again. I missed playing it on the computer, so I found a downloadable version through Amazon only the Sims 2 version. That took the WHOLE night to download.

Monday morning-

We got up around 8:30 and Spencer went out to run a few errands. Then the game on my computer was done so I played that until 10:30am this morning and Spencer came home and played the playstation version as well. We ate donuts for breakfast! It was a good morning. I know what I’m going to do when we get home later today. I’ve missed playing that game.

Work isn’t too bad today but being sick doesn’t make it really easy. Just plan to work on typing up papers and reading my book! Other than that not much is happening today.

Enjoy the good weather we are soon to get!

Hot Fudge Brownie Milkshake =]

Thursday evening-

Work went fairly well. I got a lot of papers typed up and figured out. And all went well. It was Spencer’s last day of school!! I went to this one restaurant to get a milkshake: hot fudge brownie… so good! I got chicken strips too but they weren’t as good as I remember them being. Then I went home and watched some TV while I ate. I decided not to go to Institute because I wanted to be home when Spencer got home and I knew he would probably get home earlier than usual. I didn’t tell him though; I was going to surprise him! But he figured it out anyways lol We read our scriptures and ate some food before reading our books and heading to bed.


Friday-

We slept in a little bit. I have a hard time sleeping in now. I would rather get up around 7 or 7:30. Today I got up around 8:30 but I didn’t sleep much between 7:00-8:30. Spencer slept in a little though. I decided to read my book this morning. He woke up and did the dishes and made some lunch/breakfast for himself. I snacked a little and then kept reading my book. We eventually both soon got ready for the day and both headed our separate ways to work. So far work is going well, its Friday so it’s not super busy. I’m pretty excited for the weekend as always!!

Tonight we are helping clean the temple. It’s the first time I’ve done it so I’m pretty excited it’s going to be from 9:45pm-12:00. I will be tired but it will be a good experience.


So since I’ve been married I’ve lost 2 pieces of laundry. One of my purple towels and my size 6 black pencil skirt. I have NO idea where they have gone. 1. That’s the only pencil skirt that fits me the best the rest are size 8 or 10. I swore I’ve been washing and wearing it but maybe it’s been size 8. We have done our laundry at 4 places since we’ve been married. 1. My sisters 2. My parents 3. The laundry mat 4. Andrew’s apartment
I just have no idea. I mean we have in California too but I don’t think I ever brought my pencil skirt there…. Maybe I did. If anyone has found it LET ME KNOW PLEASE!!!! I just barely bought it in November.


Anyways Saturday I’m going to this women event thing with my mom and Jessica. My dad, Spencer, and J are going to hang out. I’ve never been to something like this but I have free tickets and thought I might as well check it out if someone wanted to go with me. Other than that I don’t have anything else planned that day.

Have a fantastic Friday!!! Enjoy your upcoming weekend.
