This one time

This one time,

It was the fourth of July, and my family and I went to a church activity and sat by ourselves in the shade of a tiny tree, the way we like it! Played some awesome jeopardy. Had THE best fries in the world. Saw White House Down, and liked it. I didn't eat the whole bucket of popcorn. I dropped my phone behind my seat and it glowed half the movie.

I watched the original Superman. In the first ten minutes on Krypton, I thought I liked the new one better. But then once we returned to Earth, it became clear the original is where it's at! I love the witty one liners, and how it didn't make me want to burst into tears the whole movie like Man of Steel. Can't wait to see the next ones! (Of the originals)

I got so excited when one of my primary kids was the spotlight and they said their favorite story is when Nephi built the boat because I'd taught that lesson a few weeks before. Then I later remembered that the parents fill out those sheets at the beginning of the year sooooo he didn't like it because of my awesome teaching skills. Ha!

Went to Pearl Street with my family. Boulder is not where we belong but it was a fun experience. We spent the most time in a bookstore. I only bought two books, I restrained myself. Also left with some crocs. Sammy didn't think they would be cute, but they're totally cute.

Sammy went to Florida for a week and I made it!

I love my family. I'm so blessed. I love my doggy too, most of the time.

Discovered Leverage is the best tv show to watch while in panic attack mode.

Crocheted an entire blanket, and bought 22 skeins of yarn for some other ones. Learned the zigzag! The man in Walmart looked at me weird for that one.

Discovered that some of the stereotypes about work and management and work functions are true. Now why don't I get to work with Dwight?

I'm sort of excited for my classes this fall. I'm thinking about changing my major to public health, I've so missed science classes, and I'm really excited for that intro class. Along with my Immigration, Literacy, and Migration class, the Economics of life, and intro to literature (blech).  That's the only one I'm not looking forward to, last semester essayed me out!

We bought some white chocolate chips for cookies, and we've almost already eaten all them, one handful at a time.

It was bed time!

Fake

I feel like a lot of times when going through blogger, I'm always pushing the boundaries a bit. A lot of blogs seem to always be happy and awesome and they just won this free product from someone and it's great! And then, I'm over here in my little corner of the blogosphere wondering, hey, should I actually write about this? Is this something that you just pretend like it never happens? Am I the only one this happens to? My favorite moments are when I find someone cutting down those walls and sharing what life is actually like. That they have zits. That they don't have the perfect relationship and baby. That they've struggled with mental health. That they're secretly gross like me. (I took a quiz on buzz feed about how secretly gross are you, and I got pretty gross. In the guise of not being fake, I am sharing this fact with you all!) When I find those blog posts, I instantly feel a connection with that person and will automatically follow them on their life j...

Liebster-ing it up!

Funny story. A few days ago I was reading all the blogs I follow like I usually do. And of course I read  Jana's  blog and read about how she had won the Liebster award. I had no idea what it was, so I read her post full of fun facts, and for everyone I kept nodding my head going, I DO THAT TOO! Then today I re-read her blog, and realized that she'd nominated me for the Liebster award as well! It was a very exciting moment. Thank you! So I guess this is how it works, I think, I'm new to this whole thing. I totally just stole this off Jana's blog ;) "The Liebster Blog Award is given to bloggers by bloggers. It is a way to acknowledge each other and say 'you're doing a great job.' It is for blogs with 200 or less followers, so it's also a great way to spread the word about smaller blogs & get them more readers/ followers! When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person who nominated y...

Christmas Lights

It’s funny having a baby and then trying to do things. I’ve noticed over the last year that I’ve gotten an I Can’t do that sort of attitude. We can’t do that because Aaron will cry and we’ll get cranky and so on. I’m really trying to work on that.  My anxiety out in public is much worse too. Now I have two people to protect not just myself. The library definitely changed how I look at places and I wish it hadn’t.  Sammy really wanted to go to a Christmas village downtown but I was too overwhelmed by all the logistics. So we compromised and went to one near us. It was so much fun! It was cold out but not too too bad. Aaron loves looking at the Christmas lights at our apartments, and he really loved these ones. It was so much more fun trying to look at these things through his eyes.  He was also fascinated by the mini Santa and Mrs. Clause at grandma’s house.  I’m so glad we went and can’t wait to go next year when he’s walking:)
