P90X

Thats right i am now the owner of P90X! So far i love it! I started the day i got it, last tuesday, and have been sore ever since. Uncle kevin bought a pull up bar so I get to do everything in all the disks. I'm not doing so well following the diet plan. I'm just going to try the eat healthy route and see if that works. Yes. i did take the before picture, but i still look like the before pic so i wont be posting that until i don't look like that any more =] I'm sticking to the program the whole 90 days so we'll see what results from it!!!

Homemade goodness!!

For christmas,in my stocking was my ALL time favorite, A huge bag of pecans!! I love pecans! One night i was sitting eating my pecans when i realized i never do anything with the huge bag, I just eat them until they are gone and thats it. I never buy nuts to put in cookies or things because you pay a lot for so little... so i really wanted to use my pecans in some yummy homemade cookies. and not just any cookies.. i wanted the real deal.. i wanted oatmeal, chocolate chips, pecan, big yummy ness. So i told syl about it and she said she was planning on making homemade ice cream on sunday so we could do both!!!




We had a ton of fun making oh so very good cookies, and enjoying the yummy homemade vanilla ice cream with the warm cookie on top!!!

Rain Forest Cafe!

Syl and I go out to eat like once a week. It's what we do. Now that i'm mostly a closer and she has a boyfriend, we only see each other once maybe twice a week. Each time we hang out we find a new place we have never been or want to go eat. For the last week or so we wanted to go to the Rain Forest cafe!! So saturday we headed out. Its a REALLY cool place with all the decorations and all. However, its very expensive!! I had heard it was expensive but we both wanted to go so i was just going to suck it up. After we sat looking at prices we decide to split the pot roast. Every where you go if you get the roast you get a ton of mashed potatoes and veggies and really good roast... not here! the roast was ehhh and there were A TON of onions! hardly any other veggie. The mashed potatoes were good but not nearly enough for 2 ppl. it was the smallest serving of pot roast i had ever seen! And it was $15.99. We were very disappointed in our trip. We were so sad cuz we were sooo excited but at least we know what it's like!

I also got my cute new hat for christmas.. every chance i get it i wear it! syl saw that i had mine on so she made sure she wore hers!! aren't we so cute?!?!

We have a lightrail!!

On Dec 27th the Arizona lightrail opened up!! i thought it was would be a cool memory to be go ont he grand opening! Aunt marsha said she would go with me and we dragged jess along to ride it. We got up and headed over to a park and ride lot. We had to wait a few minutes for the train to come. It was windy and cold but sooo worth it. We loaded up on the crowed train and headed into town. We only rode it for like 8 stops. We got off at Mill Ave and the ASU stop and walked around and got a bunch of free stuff. I had to work so we couldn't ride it all the way and back but i was just happy that i was able to ride it the day it opened up!!!!

Up to visit the parents

I had the weekend off and the girls are done with school and Kevin took Friday off.. so we all headed up to Prescott. I was happy because i got to watch my Christmas movies! it just isn't Christmas if you don't watch home alone 1 and 2 and serendipity! on sat we drove down to anthem outlets and looked around. All in all it was a very pleasant trip.











While watching a movie, i taught brooke how to french braid! It was a success!

BONFIRE.. and not in thatcher!

Sarah had a couch they found in the dumpster and an old chair so we thought we would have a bonfire! If you look closely you can see we burned some old clothes too! WE covered he couch in gas.. then light it! OH man was it HUGE! a heilocopter even came over over to see what had happened! we were scared at first but it was nothing.

Brooke is 12!

This is kind of late but here are some pictures of brooke opening her gifts for her 12th birthday!

So i was bored..

I was bored and in a not so good of a mood (if you read the post before this you'll get it) so i went onto youtube... after these i was laughing so hard! I went to work happy!!!


I CAN SOO SEE THIS HAPPENING TO SOMEONE!!!


This one was cute!


how sad is that?!? it reminds me of my sister kim and the drama lili puts her though haha


Lili... NACHO.. hahahah


the famous charlie bit my finger always makes me laugh!


i wanna try this now!


HAHAHAHAHA


HAHAHAHAA HAHAHA HAHAHAH


Oh man!!


oh so funny!

hope you laughed as much as i did!!!

?!?!?!?

Sometimes i get into these ruts where i just can't handle my life, NOTHING is happening right now!!! i HATE the waiting periods! I hate that the only thing happening is work! I am one of those people that hate working. I'm sure there are a ton of people who hate working, but i for one truly don't see any point to it. Maybe cuz i'm working in a Deli, but even thinking about becoming a nurse... i don't want to acually WORK as a nurse, i just want to know that i accomplished the schooling to be a nurse. Does that make sense? I don't see work as something that makes my life fulfilling. I like my job, but i dread going in every day. I feel like i'm wasting my time working, but i have to work to have money.

I love living with the Listers because they are the only thing thats keeping me happy. Sylvia has a "boyfriend" (not yet but i'm sure he will be soon) so thats ALL she talks about and now i have to share her with him. =[ All my other friends live to far away to see on a regular basis. I'm also not dating anyone either. Joel is kind of hanging around, but that whole thing just makes me sad.. why? cuz i'm head over heels for the kid and would love to be with him FOREVER! but thats only half of me, the other half says he's NOT the one i'm suppose to be with. So i can't fully love him which sucks but i also can't let him go. that makes it hard to date other ppl.. which there aren't any but if there were, because i want them to know me like joel does..but joel and i grew up together so it will take awhile to get to know someone else.

Next semester i will not be attending school. why you ask? For yet another reason i'm not sure about, i feel like i shouldn't. I want too! but then again i wanted to stay in utah. I don't regret coming home. I know it was what i was suppose to do. So i'm not going to attend school and just work. I was thinking of trying to find another job and work like i did during the summer, but i don't want to. Then again, i don't want to just sit at home when i'm not working. I was thinking of volunteering at the Hopsital. I think that it would be good for me to see what it would be like to be a nurse, and it will be serving people which always makes me happy.

I'm trying to find things that can keep me busy but find stuff that i really want to do. I found out today that i am a extremly lazy person and i don't have any patience. I want to work on both.. but i'm lazy and don't have patience lol. I'm still have a mission in mind but i'm in a waiting period for that as well. A- i can't go yet i'm not 21, B- i don't have the funding as of now to go( its hard for me to save money, i like spending it!!) Right now i'm into working out but i'm lazy and don't have the push that i need to do real work outs, So i'm going to make a purchase of P90X! I'm thinking if i could get through the 90 day work out then maybe i'd learn some dicpline, and i'd be healthy. Then if i can do this volunteer thing at the hopsital and work at Fry's then maybe i could make it through this loooong waiting period until i can go on a mission. The only thing that SUCKS is yes, i have to wait to do those things. I can't do anything i want to do RIGHT NOW! uuuggghhh!!! i have to wait until next week to purchase P90X cuz its a little pricey and my check this week a baby! AND i have to wait to do the volunteer cuz i have to send in my application, wait for them to call me, go through an orientaion then they set up an apointment to see if i still want to do it. SOOOOO again i'm waiting.
The only thing i can do is spend money, but i don't have that much to spend so that's not even fun!!


I know this is just a big post of me complaining.. but oh well. Now you know my feelings. I'm sure A million ppl have gone through this, advise would be nice. =] i'm waiting ( yes waiting again!) for the library to open so i can get another book to read. Thats my solace right now.. reading!

AWW memories!!

I was on facebook and sister axe had posted this picture!!! Crazy to think that Kim, Kerri, Lisa, Tryston, Aubry, Danny, Jennifer are married! Kim, Kerri, Tryston, Ali, have kids. I'm not sure about some of the girls since i've lost track of them but crazy how the time flies. I must say i think i look SO cute when my bun braids. hahah what was i thinking!?!?
