All my GREEKNESS :)

Although it was fun being dressed as Beyonce I needed a break and something new for the actual day of HALLOWEENIE!! I wanted something cheap, and easy, and cute so we went the less creative route but it was still fun... Makelli, Abby, and Myself got dreeesed up and went the the HAMILTON's party for the night.

I look slightly possessed in this picture, hmmmm

Trust me on the Sunscreen

Baz Luhrman - Sunscreen Speech

Ladies and Gentlemen of the class of ?9...Wear sunscreen

If I could offer you only one tip for the future, sunscreen would be it. The long term benefits of sunscreen have been proved by scientists, whereas the rest of my advice has no basis more reliable than my own meandering experience. I will dispense this advice now. Enjoy the power and beauty of your youth; oh nevermind; you will not understand the power and beauty of your youth until they have faded. But trust me, in 20 years youll look back at photos of yourself and recall in a way you cant grasp now how much possibility lay before you and how fabulous you really looked...You're not as fat as you imagine.Dont worry about the future; or worry, but know that worrying is as effective as trying to solve an algebra equation by chewing bubblegum. The real troubles in your life are apt to be things that never crossed your worried mind; the kind that blindside you at 4pm on some idle Tuesday. Do one thing everyday that scares you Sing Dont be reckless with other peoples hearts, dont put up with people who are reckless with yours. Floss Dont waste your time on jealousy; sometimes youre ahead, sometimes youre behind...the race is long, and in the end its only with yourself. Remember the compliments you receive, forget the insults; if you succeed in doing this, tell me how. Keep your old love letters, throw away your old bank statements. Stretch Dont feel guilty if you dont know what to do with your life...the most interesting people I know didnt know at 22 what they wanted to do with their lives, some of the most interesting 40 year olds I know still dont.Get plenty of calcium Be kind to your knees, youll miss them when they're gone. Maybe youll marry, maybe you wont, maybe youll have children, maybe you wont, maybe youll divorce at 40, maybe youll dance the funky chicken on your 75th wedding anniversary...what ever you do, dont congratulate yourself too much or berate yourself either - your choices are half chance, so are everybody elses. Enjoy your body, use it every way you can...dont be afraid of it, or what other people think of it, its the greatest instrument you'll ever own. Dance...even if you have nowhere to do it but in your own living room. Read the directions, even if you dont follow them. Do NOT read beauty magazines, they will only make you feel ugly. Get to know your parents, youll never know when theyll be gone for good. Be nice to your siblings; they are the best link to your past and the people most likely to stick with you in the future. Understand that friends come and go, but for the precious few you should hold on. Work hard to bridge the gaps in geography in lifestyle because the older you get, the more you need the people you knew when you were young. Live in New York City once, but leave before it makes you hard; live in Northern California once, but leave before it makes you soft.Travel. Accept certain inalienable truths, price will rise, politicians will philander, you too will get old, and when you do you'll fantasize that when you were young prices were reasonable, politicians were noble and children respected their elders. Respect your elders. Dont expect anyone else to support you. Maybe you have a trust fund, maybe you have a wealthy spouse; but you never know when either one might run out. Dont mess too much with your hair, or by the time its 40, it will look 85. Be careful who advice you buy, but be patient with those who supply it. Advice is a form of nostalgia, dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than its worth. But trust me on the sunscreen...

Halloweenie :)

Halloweenie was pretty eventful this year ... Started off with a trip to Salt Lake last weekend, went to a family party Frideee night and went to the Hamilton's Party on Saturdee (pictures soon)

Debbie Downer

Anybody ever feel like they'll never get out of the PILE their buried under?? And as much as I LOVE making to do lists (seriously) I think the length of my to do list is the cause of my lack of motivation.

This Is It

Michael Jackson: The King of Pop. Last night I saw this film in theaters and it was amazing! Not amazing in the way a normal movie is amazing because it's more like a "show" or like a "documentary?" The film goes through all of the production and practice and hours of rehearsal that Michael was doing to get ready for his tour. The musical side, the choreography side, design of the set and all of the video and different lighting's and elements of the show- I LOVED watching the dancing side of things and watching all of the choreography etc. I don't know if I recommend this to see in theaters because I might have like to just rent this one but you should DEFINITELY see it!

Thriller

Makell and I went to THRILLER a couple weeks ago at the Kent Concert Hall and it was entertaining as always. My favorite is the scarecrow dance every year. If you haven't been, you should go.

Ellen...Makell...Lacy

Uh??

You and Me Goin Fishin in the Dark......

One Sunday this summer Dad and the girls minus Maddie decided to go fishin for the afternoon. I hadn't fished in so long I almost forgot how and every five minutes either Hay Yay or I would be like " DADDD! .... DAD! ... Dad Come on, my fishin line is stuck!" So he'd wade over in his waders to save the day just in time to go untangle the next hook.

Good Ol' Rubers just enjoying the day -- lettin her ears flap in the wind.

Miss her :(

Dad ... showin us how it's done

I don't know why but I love this picture - and not cuz its my dads bum (ewww sick)

Too bad it SNOWED today and its freezing cold outside, I wouldn't mind going fishin right now :(

Two Peas in a Pod ....

These two little monsters are getting SOOO big. They eat so much food and have so much personality. The know how to sit, high five, and lay down!! We just need to teach them to stay DOWN!

They love to fight constantly and bark at each other but when it's time to sleep they love to cuddle.

All worn out from playin in the great outdoors :)

Givin some loves

We gave them a bath today and this is the after shot. Bo (the one on the right) is like, "Rouger, did she just say treat?"

Rouger with his double chin resisting his turn to get in the bath.

I ran across this poem today and I LOVE IT. I remember having to memorize it elementary school and I have never forgotten it ... hahahaha ... I'm going to have to pass it on to Maddie.

If you love me, SPOON ME

Okay so I know I've posted a lot today, I'm just making up for all the times I don't blog for months ... so while I'm in the mood you might see a lot from me. Not that it matters cuz I very possibly could be blogging to myself (and Bobbers :) hahaha). ANYWHO ever since I took a little trip to California two summers ago where I was first introduced to what would surely empty my wallet if we had one here, I have constantly craved PINKBERRY. It is amazing, really it is and if you haven't tried it you should book your flight to California right now. But.... we recently got a Spoon ME in Logan and Leslie got me some to try. Although it isn't quite as amazing as Pinkberry, it's pretty good and I think it will tie me over until my next trip to CALI :)
