Oh What A Circus, Oh What A Show!

Tonight we decided that we were going to go turn in our day's labors at the junk yard. My mom really wanted to go and see the parade of lights on 25th street. Well, we get all parked and dressed up, walked up a couple of blocks and realized....hmmm, there's no one else here. Then it dawns on my mom, "Oh gee, I think we're a week early!" We were all dying laughing! We decided to take a picture where that great epiphany took place. As you can see, it is a Coca-Cola horse. Jake is pouring the coke out and Mollie is drinking it.

After we all had a good laugh about Mom messing the time up, we walked down the other side of the street and decided to stop at a Greek restaurant. It was soooo yummy!!! And we had a lot of fun! I saw the sign on a building. It was the Ko Ka Mo Bar :)

After we ate we had to stop by Wal-Mart. Well, my mom the video How To Train Your Dragon. We were all excited and begged my mom to get it. Well, we went to watch it and, as it turned out, we accidentally bought the freaking Christmas version. So, obviously, we are really having a circus day. It was so crazy! I love my family :)

Grizzlies Game

Ok, so on the 18th we went to the Utah Grizzlies hockey game. They were playing a team from Las Vegas. Yeah...the Grizzlies got their butts kicked 4-0. It was super fun and we loved it when the teams got into some fights!!

Sherie Wright, My Hero

Ok, for those of you who don't live in Morgan, or that do live there and are just deprived, Sherie Wright is one of the neatest ladies to ever walk the earth! She is actually my dear friend Tim's mom. Sherie was diagnosd with cancer last week. Click here to see her blog. Even if you don't know her, please keep her and her family in your prayers.
I always told Sherie she was my hero. I always meant it. But now, it takes on a whole new meaning. I LOVE YOU SHERIE!!! YOU ARE STILL MY HERO! :)

Most Powerful Quote EVER

"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are POWERFUL BEYOND MEASURE. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

11/11/11 11:11

So, we were all part of a wonderous moment yesterday....it was 11/11/11! That only happens every 100 years people!!! You will not live to ever see it again!! I snuck out of Spanish class a wee bit early so I could document this sacred moment. This is me (the clock says 11:11am) being excited about the time and in the process of making the most epic wish of my lifetime!

 

November 11, is also Veteran's Day. I am so grateful for all of the amazing people who have served, and still serve to this day. Some have paid the ultimate sacrifice. I am so grateful for all of you wonderful people and the families that raise these fine men and women. 

In school, a few people (I suspect they were veterans) were playing instruments in the Union building. It was absolutely beautiful!

November 11, is also my late Uncle Bart's birthday. I remember going to my grandparent's house and he was always there. He always called me "baby" every time I saw him. Then he would wrap me up in a big hug. Before he died, when I saw him in the hospital, it was the night before the playoffs in soccer. I was giving him a hug goodbye and he managed to say, "Good luck baby." I love my uncle Bart and miss him a lot. I know he is in a better place and I can't wait to see him again! 

Today I'm Thankful For Humor

I love to laugh! Who doesn't! I made this as a joke to give myself and others a little chuckle :)

MOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Trevin and Tesslie

So last night I got to babysit my two baby cousins Trevin and Tesslie. I was SOOO excited because they are the two most adorable kids! Trevin is such a ball of energy. He ran around the house all night, ran over everything with his toy firetruck, and watched "Littlefoot" on the television. Tesslie loved to be thrown up in the air. Every time I sat on the ground she would run up to me and give me a HUGE hug! Then she would lay her little head on my shoulder and I melted. I love the so much and can't wait to do it again!! :)

Aren't  they the cutest?!?
