Dont bore yourself too much on this one...

Ok well I KNOW that I am totally late on all this jive, but, Im so into twilight haha. I saw the movie in theaters and I loved it. I know a majority of people HATED it, but I didnt. I also hadnt read the books when it came out so I didnt know what to expect anyways. My lilttle brother-in-law had the first book and I was over at his house and randomly started to read it....then couldnt stop! haha my friends hooked me up with all 3 other books and I read all 4 within about a week (ish). To those amazing readers who read really quick and all the time, this may seem like nothing, haha but I am not one of those amazing readers. I hardly ever read books seriously. But I thoroughly enjoyed reading them. Phil is really excited I am done also because he, "gets his wife back." But really its kinda true, Im pathetic, and I dont care. I loved them. And pretty proud of myself that I actually read a series of something (never have I done that before). So yes, Im way out of date with the excitment. But I dont care. Its funny though, my mind is set in reading/narrorating mode. In my mind I narroate everything I do! My friend Lauren got in the craze the same time I did and she does it too. I wonder, does this happen to anyone else? ha.



ALSO....We just got back from our 5 day (2 days in the car) trip to Utah for conference. Fantastic! We went with Phils family in a big van haha. This is how I had time to do so much reading also ha. I missed three days of school :/ uh haha and didnt mind at all. My favorite talk from conference was from Elder Oaks about service. I could try a lot harder and step out of my little shell to help someone around me. Thats my new goal. And I did take my camera to SL but somehow only took like 1 pic, and it was of me and phil while we were waiting to get into conference. I figured i have put plenty of pics up of me and phil already ha. OH YEAH, we also went through the Salt Lake Temple----one of those dreams come true for me. So beautiful! One of my favorite parts of the trip. I thought it was april too? Because it was soooo cold in Utah you would think it was January or something. I DO love Arizona!


Another Also...Im so close to being done with school. woo! Math is going, better. I got an A on my last quiz that was turned into a test grade, so that should help out a lot. And things are looking up (way up) for our future plans of getting a house. We found out this weekend that the bank accepted our offer to our favorite house! We found this house a while ago and loved it, but when we made an offer, it foreclosed. We then found one just like it but a lil bigger and made another offer, it forclosed. Well the first one that we really liked popped up on foreclosed houses, botta boom botta bing, we made and offer and it wasnt possible of it foreclosing so the bank DID accept it! Yes! When we found out Phils face lit up! He is so good with all this house stuff, while I daze off and have no clue about the stuff he talks about, but I am learning. He does his best to be patient with my 5 year old mind. He is the greatest, so glad I have him. He asked why I didnt tell my family right off--And I just didnt want to get my hopes up, again. But I did tell them, most of them I think. Sorry family I didnt tell. But he told me today that its not TOTALLY official due to some paperwork that still needs to be done. So we still need to keep it in our prayers-faith goes a long way we have realized. If all goes well we can move in May! And I will need a job in Mesa-so any of you mesa people could help me out I would appritiate it. This weekend were moving in with his family so we can save some money until we move. That will be helpful, were grateful his family is taking us in. His family has been such a help with everything. So has mine!! My parents gave us couches, tables and a piano (that are all stored at my inlaws). We have wonderful families we know. Well WOAH this post was long. Sorry about no pics I know this stuff is not interesting to many people haha. And I have a hard time paying attention to post's without pictures (thats the 5 year old mind in me again). Hope everyone is enjoying themselves!

Our HAPPY vacation!

Spring break was fabulous. We went to Disneyland/California Adventure. Great. The weather was grand and lines were short(er) than usual. My hubby spoiled me and let me get lots of ice cream, churros, and cotton candy! ah! I loooove this place. We had a ton of fun. Oh and we took a plane. =) Thee coolest parade ever. It was one of my most favorite things of our 3 days we spent there!



I was so excited to see Sulley. I waited in line with all the kids seven and under for this pic and was so proud.

Hubby.




So its not rotated eh, we actually got to meet mickey after going through his house. That never happens!! And he shrunk!



Apparently i didnt rotate this like i thought either. Just turn your head slightly =)

We got a little bored waiting to get off the plane in Arizona.

We love space mountain, ice cream at Cali adventure, SCREAMIN (went on it the most), Maliboomer, Buzz lightyear ride, Blue Bayou restraunt, high school musical 3 performance (ok thats just me), river rapids, play parade, Soaring over California, Indiana Jones. My FAV is tower of terror, Phils is Splash Mountain.
loved it all.

Birthday/Valentines Week(end)

I had a good birthday-it mostly consisted of doing "make-up" homework from all the days i missed at choir tour-eh oh well. i guess it just shows im growing up haha. But Phil made my day wonderful! I came home from tour with an early b-day present-a wedding band! woo-i didnt have my ring the whole time in utah so it could be put on there! My hubby is the greatest! After i got caught up on my work I made myself a confetti cake (which i wanted to make it-phil offered but i just really wanted to make it haha) and we invited over like 3 people and ate and played some games. So it was good-and FUN! Then three days lata for valentines day i woke up early to head off to the ground breaking for the GILA VALLEY TEMPLE! I was able to sing in the choir and be right up where the speakers were. What an amazing experience. After that Phil and I went to his parents house to play a little baseball in the backyard. Then we got to go horseback riding! SOOO FUN! It had been a long time since i had been. That night we were both so dead-we went and got Ice cream and rented a movie! simple and fun!
But he didnt let the valentines weekend end there. Monday night he said he was going to run by to get the mail-but came back with bagels and flavored cream cheese-a cute little valentine bear thing haha and my new FAVORITE snack- minute maid frozen limade! MMMMM! He is wonderful-im so glad i married such a sweet person! He bought a pack of 8-i think there are like 3 left from monday haha, but really.

Utah Choir Tour!

SO this tour was AMAZING!!! so many awesome things happened!! We went for 5 days-and just had a blast. We did exchanges with about 6 schools I think, including BYU singers and YOUNG AMBASSADORS! We also gave a performance in the provo tabernacle and unexpectedly got to sing in the Salt Lake tabernacle after we attended the Mormon Tabernacle Choir's performance of "The Spoken Word." The guy who worked for the Mo tab said in his 17 years he has never seen a group be able to do that, NEVER. So we felt really privledged they let us go up there and sing after. There were so many other amazing experiences there that I wont be able to remember-actually a lot of spiritual ones. It was great! The bus ride was sooo long but I made so many new friends! We played cards and other games the whole time so it actually went by way fast!



This is our lil group from the 5 days! We played games non-stop...seriously though, everyone came to sit by us so they could play. ha thats how i met lots of choir friends.

I LOVE THOSE GLASSES!!! BUUUUUT, i left them at the YOUNG AMBASSADORS concert-im so sad!





This is us playing cards-we did it almost every night seriously!


Ok one night we got bored.........................keep looking. We took tons of sweet pics like this.






Told ya we got bored...

=)





Mack WIlburg (director of Mo Tab) and the announcer guy for confrence haha!
