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.
