I dont feel like blogging...

But I am going to do it anyway. Cam is still asleep so thats a plus. Shes been sick and so sleeping in till 9, its like heaven really.

Saturday I worked in the morning, and it snowed. Here is a pic of Steph(in the yellow) and I.



This is when it first started snowing and we (I) was all excited about the snow...a few flights and hours later, I was not feeling the snow anymore, I was freezing and Steph's finger was probably hurting. And I was all wet, and very glad to go home, an hour after I was scheduled to go.

This week has been relativly normal. The brother in-laws truck got repoed lastnight while we where all fast asleep. I am so glad to see that thing gone and not just sitting like a lump in front of my house, but on the down side it has OUR car seat in it. And I would like that back, but I am not holding my breath.

My winter sore throat is back, and I am sure I will be having that till Feb. or so. Not a big deal I just have a hard time swallowing.
Ok done.

What is it with me and my music lately...

Us Against the World : Christina Milian

10 years today

10 years ago today I was baptized a member of The Church Of Jesus Christ Of Latter Day Saints. Now I am not anywhere near where I was then. And thats ok I am working towards being a better person always. And just like everyone else I have things I need to work on. I found the tape of the baptism. And I would listen to it, but I cant find a cassette player LOL go figure huh. I was looking for pictures and I cant find anything that is scanned. If I find them I will edit or repost them.

Jared just got home early so going to go.
later

Halo...

This song evokes some deep feelings from me. Thats about all I will elaborate on.



Here are the lyrics, I left the chorus out.

Remember those walls I built
Well baby they tumbling down
And they didn't even put up a fight
They didn't even make a sound
I found a way to let you in
But I never really had a doubt
Standing in the light of your halo
I got my angel now

It's like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breaking
It's the risk that I'm taking
I ain't never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

Hit me like a ray of sun
Burning through my darkest night
You're the only one that I want
Think I'm addicted to your light
I swore I'd never fall again
But this don't even feel like falling
Gravity can't forget
So pull me back to the ground again

Feels like I've been awakened
Every rule I had you breaking
The risk that I'm taking
I'm never gonna shut you out

Everywhere I'm looking now
I'm surrounded by your embrace
Baby I can see your halo
You know you're my saving grace
You're everything I need and more
It's written all over your face
Baby I can feel your halo
Pray it won't fade away

Gives you hell...

Good song by the All American Rejects. Not going to post it here, because I am actually going to type something out. Instead of post a pic or vid. Although I might post some pics to go along with this post.

It is so dang cold outside, and Cam is still bugging me to go outside and play with the hose on the trampoline. Now I really want to just let her so she could learn her lesson. But then where would the fun come in that I tell her no and torture her so. It would be to easy to just let her go outside and play in the water. So instead we found out how many stuffed animals she actually has. THIRTY-TWO thats 32. Yup and now that Cam has a full class to teach, she has been doing so. She lines them all up on the couch and proceeds to teach them made up stuff. And some of it doesnt sound to bad.

Thats a pic my dad took in Yellowstone he was up there for a few weeks taking pictures with his bad boy cameras. Jared and I will be going over to sort threw some pictures and then have one printed out and framed to put in our living room. But looking at those pictures makes me realize how much I hate it here and would rather be living somewhere WAY less populated where I could wake up and see that all day long. I am pretty sure I wouldnt get sick of it.
So I have been doing this kiss Jared for 10 seconds a day and while your not in bed. Its supposed to help your relationship heck it was on Oprah so it has to work right??? LOL well its working at first Jared just laughed at me and made a big joke out of it. But he likes it now so there!!! Anyway off to do more laundry. Type something else later.

OH MY!!!!

So Jared was telling me about a picture he found of our very first date. And how I out fished him. And how "good" we looked then. Well I found the picture, he imposed it on a different background because it was at night or something. Anyway I was blown away. I dont have very many pictures of myself at 19 but DANG!!! I was skinny, (compared to now) anyway here it is......

"Ooh Girl!" - An Honest R&B Song & Office War

I saw this on youtube and it cracked me up. I know I will post a real blog entry one of these days but I am just not motivated to yet. Hope you get a kick out of this.






this one I liked too.

Just Kidding

What is this pain...

I must sleep crazy, I often wake up with neck kinks and such. And of course I did this morning. So I cant move my head very much. Very interesting all the things you cant do very well when your neck hurts. Like the finishing up in the bathroom, I am just saying...


So we went boating a few weeks back with some friends from Jareds work. It was way fun. Went to Strawberry Res. And fished all day, I didnt catch anything, Jared got two and Cam had a blast.


And Cam also caught a fish forgot about that here is the pics she was loving it.



We also got an older trailer in the summer that we are going to fix up and use for camping next year. We painted it last week I dont have the final final picture but I will post the ones I do have during the painting =) It looks way better now




So thats that.
On other news looks like I will be having Jaw surgery soon. I am going to appeal the insurance company for an out of network doctor (mine) that I like so they will pay for him to do that surgery. If not I need to find one of the in network doctors in SL and have them do it. And apparently the more I wait the worse my jaw muscle gets or something. But being as they will cut that anyway during surgery I dont see how it can get any worse.
I will blog more later =)

More posts to come...hopefully

So I know its been a long time since I posted, and its not that I havent had things to post about. Its just mostly I am not much of a typer and blogger so it takes me longer to do these types of things. I will post some pics and some more blogs in the week hopfully of all the things that have went on.

We went Camping in July and August and it was way fun. Camping is probably my most favorite thing to do. But DANG its hard with little kids.

This is Cam and my dog Daisy. They had tons of fun together.

Cam and Jax had tons of fun together on both camping trips. And they played in the mud and everything. Lots of fun.


And right before bed with light sticks.
All in all a good time =)

Having a pretty DANG good day =)

Just jammin to some music. Getting organized and ready to go camping. Cam is just laying in the bed watching Ben 10. Pretty good cartoon. Mowed the lawn and pulled some weeds and such in the front yard today. It was soooooooooo hot outside. So after I was all done Cam and I got on the trampoline with the sprinkler on under it. It was so fun. I got soaked which was good because it was so hot. Cam had a blanket set up with some water, apple, capt crunch, and "cinnamon toast" just bread with cinnamon sugar. Was a pretty good treat. Then I went for a drive to see all the contruction going on in in the neighborhood and such.
Need to finish getting the backyard and done and watered for the weekend. Got some soaker hose for the garden. So I dont have to water above the corn, I dont want it to get all moldy. My brothers birthday was yesterday!! I love my brother do death. Hes pretty dang cool too. And I love my sister in-law too, shes neat.
Um so Cam just informed me that she loves Kevin on ben10. LOL
Well I will blog some more later....

Good song and thats about it.

Its pretty much a good song in my opinion.

Chasing Pavements

I love this song. Dont know why. But I have been jamming to it all morning. Video is kinda weird.

Book I just ready and other stuff maybe...

Read Escape over the week. It is a good book and I wasnt "bored" while reading it. Rather it was pretty infuriating how the FLDS cult works. In the end it was good she got away. But it was to bad her daughter decided to return when she turned 18. And she hasnt heard from her since. To bad.

I cant believe today is so nice, after that crappy week we had.

Memorial day is a HUGE deal in my family. We just dont go or gally hopping around instead we go to the cemetery's and such. We have always honored and respected our Veterans and loved ones that have passed on. So yesterday was no different. Jared and I got up at 6am to get ready for the day. We drove the hour down to Lehi to meet Jareds grandma at her house. We always ride with or follow her to grandpas grave. He is always the first one we visit. Sometimes Memorial Day falls on his birthday. It was one of his favorite holidays. We decorate the grave with mums and other flowers and LOTS AND LOTS of flags. He was a WWII Veteran and recieved the Purple Heart twice. And fought in the invasion of Normandy and Battle of the Buldge. He was a rifleman in the infantry. After his grave we go to the Pleasant Grove cemetery to visit the pioneer and family graves. Jareds Grandpa was a Winters and there are a lot of family in that cemetery. And the Sunbergs. We walk from grave to grave placing flowers and visiting as a family usually there are about 20 of us or more walking around sometimes 30 or more. But yesterday there was only about 12 or so of us maybe 15. (because of the weather and those pregnant who have a hard time getting up in the morning and driving an hour) It was fun because we where place a flower on one of the great great great grandsons who died the day he was born and we where all visiting and an older couple walks up and Cam asks whos grave she was at. And she said it was her songs grave, then they walked to a really really old grave next to where everyone was standing and so Cam again asked whos grave that was, and they older man replied that it was his grandmothers grave, and he was Oscar Winters. Well come to find out we are all related LOL so grandma and this guy where going on about family and who each other knew. It was fun. Then we left and went to the church to have a lunch, play games and have a little memorial thing for grandpa that we do. We saw all his medals and patches. And read about his unit and a soldier poem. We then played bingo and then visited some more. It was a really good day =)

Oh I wish I knew about dino's earlier

So my mom bought my nephews a HUGE dino set for Christmas. But my sister never came and got them, and didnt show interest, and being as we arent aloud to visit Aiden they never got to them. So my mom was cleaning out the basement and decided to give Cam this set. So I brought it home, and Cam got so excited and went right into her room to clean it without me asking. So after she was done she asked me to put it together. Well I did and it took FOREVER....well not quite but 45 minutes or so. But once I did the picture is the final result. There are about 15 or so dino's and this castle looking thing. Well its been 3 hours and going and Cam is still playing with it. I hope she keeps interest in it. But she has her favorite the saber tooth tiger.

This was a month or so ago. Cam got her chalk and was having fun on the sidewalk!!!

The pictures of the bathroom didnt turn out so I will post those later as I get new ones. This week has been pretty good. Jared finally got the bathroom finished Dang leaky faucet!!!

Car Chase

I just watched a car chase in LA for like an hour. LOL yeah I was that bored and that interested in a white SUV going fast down the freeway.
Other than that I have had a busy day so far. Had to go downtown to get something from Jared. when I got to his work. I called like 4 times his cell phone then his desk phone and he didnt answer. I was like what....I just talked to him a half hour before. I lucked out and got a parking spot on the street and went into his building. I forgot what floor he was on so I pushed 4 (I was on 3) and instead of going up to 4 it went down to 1...ok well anyway it opened up and there was Jared with a few co-workers. He was all shocked to see me. He was why didnt you call, and I said I did tons of times. Then he proceeded to say it was Mikes fault cos he was talking and made him go to the market with him LOL It was funny. But Cam had a blast. So then we where off. I hate the freeway sometimes. People drive me crazy oh well. I got back in Layton. And had to go to the place thats going to finish the bathroom for us, and get a sample. I guess the pipes are off a little and Jared wanted a sample to measure the thickness and see if we need to move it again. I thought the material was like acrylic or something but its not. It "clinks" like tile and its heavy but it looks WAY good. The color we chose is quartz biscuit, and then a darker color for the trim. hopefully its done in a few weeks once we set a date for install.
Then I had to go to walmart and get Cam some underwear, and socks. And she suckered me into a few more things like a necklace and a new doll. Then I had to go to the distribution center and get Jared a teaching manual for Sunday School. And then I got Cam and I some lunch. And I am so tired. I am not used to all that running around.

This and That

Havent blogged for a bit, so I thought I would say a bit.
So lately I have been having nightmares. I dont usually have them. But when I do its extreme. Basically so much so that I cant sleep I have to turn a few lights on, I double and triple and sometimes rediculously check the locks. Its like I am frenzied or something. I havent done the lock thing for a bit. But I did turn the lights on the other night. I told my mom and Jared about the dream. Jared just laughed. And my mom was trying to analyze me like crazy. I dont want to rehash the dream now. But it was gruesome thats all I will say.
I talked to my sister yesterday. I cant tell you how long its been, maybe a few months, but still been over a year since I have seen her in person. Supposedly shes going to a inpatient rehab tomorrow. It was kinda weird first time I have talked to her where she has been "clean" but she was still annoying in a way to me. But I do hope she sticks this out and stays the whole 90 days, she needs it. 90 days is nothing compared to 15 years of addiction. And I guess she has found another man that is "the one" and they are getting married this summer. She wants me to meet him. I am not so sure. Hes on parol.
My brother called me the other day randomly, we had a awesome conversation. Was so fun. We are gonna go plinking soon. Anyway I will type more later. I am tired

I cant wait to go fishing again. Jared and I just need to take the time to go. Cam's not quiet old enough to sit around and fish for as long as we do. She lasts maybe an hour if that. We can go all day of course.

Back in the day I could catch fish with my bare hands... LOL I know big Ol' dorky glasses I get it.

How am I supposed to breath with no air????

My new favorite song by Jordin Sparks featuring Chris Brown its called "No Air" For some reason it got me all emotional. I dont think I have let go for a few months, I think a good cry does good every now and then. I am guessing I need one. Hmmm...

Going to take Cam out to ride her bike. Getting the daily exersize (I know thats spelt wrong but I cant figure it out for the life of me right now) Its warmed up tons since this morning. Moved my computer upstairs in our bedroom the only room with room for a small desk. So I should be blogging more often. Now if I could just get the washer and dryer up here.... hehe.

I am itching for a day outdoors. In the mountains. Picnic or hike or just taking pictures. Going to see if my dad feels like going up to Moon Lake in the Uintahs. I dont know if the road is open or not. But its soooooooooooo pretty up there. And that lake is easy for a big girl like me to hike to without dying. I will post one picture from last year.

This isnt the picture I thought it was but its still the Uintahs about 20 min or less from Moon Lake.

The toilet~

So I fell down the stairs on Monday. And I didnt think it was that bad just my knee that hurt. Well come the next day. It was a huge deal to just go to the bathroom. My legs hurt so bad, and my shoulder too. I found myself holding it till the last minute just so I didnt have to be in pain to go pee!!! LOL Anyway I am better now.

Today is my daddy's birthday hes 54. We went to McGraths, not my favorite resturaunt but has some good stuff. And Cam had fish and shrimp for the first time. I myself dont like shrimp or lobster or crab. But I will eat salmon and halibet. My dad got some popcorn shrimp and Cam ate nearly the whole plate. She thought it was so gooooood and tasty. And the best part was she behaved at the place. And thats always a good thing for her to be good. The only thing is she naturally has a loud voice, so we had to keep telling her to be a little quieter. Then we went to the store and got some stuff. And she biffed it, to go along with the chunk of skin missing from her knee already, do to a trip yesterday. Anyway shes all better now. I am just going to watch Idol tonight and listen to some music, like Damaged by Danity Kane. Love that song.

Itching

Having this horrible urge to go clubbing. I dont go for the "socialness" I like the music loud and the beats, and no one really cares how you dance. And thats good for me since I have NO rhythem. But, I kinda told someone I wouldnt go to the clubs anymore. And so I wont. But that doesnt mean I dont want to. Ha ha. Camryn has succeeded in making the house a mess, and I cleaned it this morning. Shes so good at that. And snacking endlessly. Its really nice outside, other than the inversion. So my sore throat went away finally. Now is the test. I go back to work tonight. If I get another sore throat. I just no its that nasty place of germs and bacteria where I work. Yes I think Steph would agree with me here. Work is filthy. Not just the outside and all the equiptment but the breakrooms and especially the bathrooms as well. My mom bought me a big thing of hand sanitizer for me to use at work. And I will just carry it in my extra pocket. Thanks mom!!! Well hope everyone has a great weekend.

Nothing really

Today is going to be kinda of weird. I dont know I am feeling silly. And I think my cold is coming back. And I think I would just be so miserable is that happened. I am taking some allergy stuff. Just incase there is something in the air driving my sinus's crazy. So I was listening to some music on random. And this song came on. I like it and for some weird reason made me think of Steph. LOL no particular reason. Mostly that I am not sure she would even like that song. Anyhow here it is.

Deep thought.

So the other day Jared and I and Cam where on a drive. We stopped by the in-laws so Camryn could play with Jax and Gracie. And while they where playing, we (Jared and his dad and me) got into a discussion about the after life. Jared is naturally a very negative person, and it affects his eternal perspective. But it got me thinking, we have many purposes here on earth, but mostly to follow Christ and to progress. And I dont think we will stop moving forward. Even after we move on to the next step. We will always be learning and trying to better ourselves. I am kind of not doing anything now to move forward, and so I am going to change that. I miss feeling the Spirit all the time, and I miss teaching. As weird as it sounds of all the callings I have had, being a RS teacher by far was my favorite and most challanging, I learned and progressed as a person when in that calling. I am trying to find the scriptures in mp3 so I can listen to them on down time at work and such. And read when I am at home. Anyway just thought I would type a little about that.

The rest of the week hasnt been that good, only because I am having chemical imbalance or hormonal issues. But it is over now, and I should be returning to my normal self here for the next 3 weeks LOL.

Stole this from Stephanie

Who I think is almost the only person who reads my blog..ha ha

What's Your True Color?

My Result: Brown

You're brown, a credible, stable color that's reminiscent of fine wood, rich leather, and wistful melancholy. Most likely, you're a logical, practical person ruled more by your head than your heart. With your inquisitive mind and insatiable curiosity, you're probably a great problem solver. And you always gather all of the facts before coming to a timely, informed decision. Easily intrigued, you're constantly finding new ways to challenge your mind, whether it's by reading the newspaper, playing a trivia game, or composing a piece of music. Brown is an impartial, neutral color, which means you tend to see the difference between fact and opinion easily and are open to many points of view. Trustworthy and steady, you really are a brown at heart.

What are you? http://web.tickle.com/rd/50651/color/index.jsp?testname=colorogt&resultid=F

Dreams

So I watched this show lastnight on Discovery, about killer ants. It was a really good program. So I fell asleep and yup I dreamed about these ants siafu or safari ants. It was weird. But I wasnt creeped out or anything. But I guess fire is a good way to kill them. So in my dream I slept in a fire circle so they couldnt get to me.
The washer is making a weird noise. Of course I over exaggerate every noise with the washer and dryer, because I am trying to talk Jared into some ones that actually wash well and a dryer that dry's the cloths in less than 2 hours a load. But as usually Jared will fix it when he gets home. Its just off balance and needs to be shimmed again. To bad I dont sabbotage stuff. hehe
I am thinking a trip to Alaska would be fun.

So Dang Exausted!!!!

What I wouldnt give to be a kid again. And have all that energy to do all the "fun" stuff. Cam and I played outside for almost 3 hours. And made a snowwoman named Seesa. She looks pretty cute and lopsided but thats ok. For our first snowman it wasnt bad. I shoved about 5 or so inches of snow off the sidewalks and half the drive way(lower half) Its just to much for this old lady. haha.

And here is a pic of the cookes I made too the other. Day. This is a short blog because my mom is ringing my phone off the hook and wants to revenge shop because my daught bought a 6k camera lense.....

Basement!!!

Well the computer is now in the basement. As well as some of Cam's toys. We have spent most the morning down here. I am doing some laundry and that. I like Tide...it smells GOOD. Jared likes whatever is cheapest.....so I let him get that to wash the towels. Got this book 101 things to do with a cake mix, I dont think it will help with me not eating a lot of sweets but I will exercise my self control! HA. Making Delight cookies this morning. Its just yellow cake mix, brown sugar, oil, butter, and chocolate chips. I will let you know later. Maybe I will even take some pictures. Then there is the long wait till I get it transferred to the computer. I might be fast you never know. Oh and a favorite quote of mine, mostly because it pertains to me. "Why procrastinate now, when I can do it later." Yup!! my worst habit.

Resolutions!!!

I have never really been one to make a resolution. Mostly because I think it will be broken at one point or another. But I have made a few goals for this new year. Thats right NO MORE MTN DEW!!!! Or soda for that matter. I know I might slip up or break down sometime this year. But hopefully for the most part I will be free of its grasp and not need to have that "burn" feel that soda gives ya. I am sure I will need some people to yell at me to not drink it every now and then. So Orangeade will be my new friend. I have already stocked up!!!! Thats right.

I have a few other goals. Mostly pertaining to personal relationships. And my know it all attitude at times.

I would also like to do a lot more fishing. And just being outdoors mostly. Work doesnt count thats not fun outdoors. Thats just yuck at times. I hope that everyone else can reach their goals. And that I can help too, that would be good. (another of my goals, be more helpful).
