Major Blonde Moment... :D and not by me!! :D



So tonight Landon and his brother Wayne and I all went out to dinner. Well when we paid, I had used my card, so I signed the slip of paper, and handed it back to Wayne to put back in the black thing they use. Well all of a sudden Wayne is like" Limp?" I said "no that is a b (talking about the last letter)." Wayne than says "Well than why is that I there?" Landon and I look at each other, and of course Wayne realized he was having a blonde moment, and quickly started trying to explain himself. LOL I know we all have them, but it just made me laugh, and I want to be able to remember that one. P.S. I don't know why he thought it looked like I signed my last name Limp, it is CLEARLY a b at the end. I guess just an all around blonde moment!

Random Thoughts


So this last Sunday, we had some really good lessons in Relief Society and in Sunday School. I love the lady that taught Relief Society, and really wouldn't mind turning out like her! The topic in Relief Society was... (Can you guess?!) Patience. SERIOUSLY!? I have been having a HARD HARD time with that one lately!! There have just been a lot of things going on! Well we pulled into our drive way on Sunday after church, and I don't remember what the hubby and I were talking about, but for some reason he looked at me and was like you just need to have patience. I looked right back at him and said being completely honest, I don't have patience, and I really don't want it right now either. I really could have cared less for it at that point in my day. I didn't care. Well anyway, my Ipod has been having some major issues right now, and it stinks because for my job, I rely on it a little too much. I do data entry for the post office, and am keying pretty much the same thing over and over and over again, so if I don't have something to listen to, the time drags, and I end up taking the early out offers when I really should be staying and getting the hours. Anyway, so I was putting music on a Ipod nano that we had, and decided to put some Michael McLean on there. I grew up watching his videos and had an amazing experience of being able to sing in the Forgotten Carols my senior yr of High School. So today as I was working some of my favorites of his songs came on. I am so thankful for the power that music has!! A lot of the songs brought me so much peace. I feel like because I want something, and I want it my way when I think it should be right, that when I pray, fast, etc, I feel like I am being ignored, even though I know I am not. I listened to his song Will He Really Answer Me, and it really just hit home, and gave me the reminder I needed. Also because it was in a song, it was easier to hear. It is hard sometimes when people are saying one thing, because I just don't want to hear it, but thanks to music and its power, I can. It was nice to be able to have a quiet place at work where my mind can still think and go over things without anything bugging me, so I was able to hear that message today! It gave the little bit of peace I needed!

Bella And Bruiser







So I am going to try and get caught up... I know I am horrible at updating this. So first off, we have 2 dogs now. Bella and Bruiser. They are so crazy, but super cute! They are so good with each other. They look like they could be from the same mom, but are from different ones. Bella is such a sweetheart and a cuddle bug. She is a puppy though, that is for sure. She is really hitting the puppy stage hard right now, but we still love her! The dogs are so cute when playing outside. Both of them have pointer in them, and so they like to sneak up on each other. They slowly put one foot in front of the other and point with their nose at what they are sneaking to (usually each other). If the one that isn't sneaking looks at the other, the sneaker freezes, as if it makes them invisible, and than when they look away they resume. It is so fun to watch them interact with each other. It is very entertaining to go outside and just watch them play. They are kenneled trained as well, and when we bring them inside, we tell them to kennel, and are still working a little bit on kennel up, so we do treats. If we have a milk bone, begging strip, or peanut butter in a Kong toy, Bruiser and Bella will go straight into the kennel. If the door is closed to Bruisers kennel he can open it himself. They are both so smart. That is a good thing, and a very bad thing! We love our pups! They are our babies!! Enjoy the pictures. sorry for the doubles... my computer is having issues.
