Mandy's Wedding




On Saturday Eli's cousin was married in the Denver Temple, it was an all day event, so we packed up the diaper bag and prayed Sophie would behave. The day began with lunch at Maggiano's Italian Restaurant, the ceremony at the Denver LDS Temple, and then a Reception and dancing at a church nearby. Surprisingly, Sophie was quite pleasant the entire day, and even wore her sunglasses while we were out in the sun. The day, the wedding, and especially the bride were beautiful! Congratulations Mandy and Jeremy!

p(OW)der day








While in Idaho I decided to be the cool big sister that I am and keep my little brother out of school and take him snowboarding. The snow was amazing, as Utah snow usually is. The day was going great until I got the brainer idea to try to impress a 13 yr. old. I have now learned that terrain park rails are not friendly. After falling ever so gracefully off the rail, I lay in the snow and wanted to puke it hurt so bad. Josh suggested we take a lunch break and I buy him a cheeseburger. During our break I discovered a cut on my shin, much deeper than I would have guessed. Later, my nurse husband laughed at my pain and said perhaps it could have used a couple stitches. Such sympathy. I don't know that the picture does it justice, but I now have a lovely cut/scab accompanied by mass bruising from ankle to knee. All for trying to be cool.

Cookies at Grandmas






Sophie wasn't quite sure what to think about the whole cookie project, she was especially confused by the Kitchen Aid, but she loved the results : )

So, my family has this thing that we quote movies. Sometimes they fit into the flow of conversation, sometimes they start one, and sometimes they come out of no where. For instance, tonight as I was leaving the gym, desperatly trying to get back to my pre-pregnancy self, I recieved a text message from my sister - "There's something I've been wanting to tell you. You're just not that pretty." So that got me thinking of some of my favorite movie quotes. . . .
of course, "There's something I've been meaning to tell you. You're just not that pretty."
- Cinderella Story
"Where's that paper that was in my hand yesterday?"
- The Devil Wears Prada
"Can I get a poke?"
- Lonesome Dove
"You're so drunk you're probably seeing two of me." "Then it's a good thing I have two guns."
- Tombstone
"Everytime we run the microwave I pee my pants and can't remember who I am for an hour." - Vegas Vacation
"Dust is the devils snow."
- ? can't remember
"The kid's a square Benny!"
- Sandlot
"Did you fall down and smack your little head on the pavement?"
- The Devil Wears Prada
"I'm on this new diet... I don't eat anything, and then when I feel like I'm going to faint I eat a block of cheese."

I'm sure there's plenty more that I just can't think of at the moment, but now if you ever hear me say something that seems a little out of place or odd, you know why
