Baby, Baby, Baby....

So I was watching a show that was singing that RIDICULOUS song and it is now stuck in my head. Give me a BREAK!! I know my girl Ashley has the fever but I don't get it. I never understood any of these teeny bopper trends in music, have they ever grown up into something you want your children to look up to? Even when I was young I never listened to New Kids on The Block or Mickey Mouse Club or whatever was around back then (Val you could probably tell me) I listened to my own version of bad music. I had my tapes, yes tapes, of Lisa Loeb (Jared is still relentless about this) and Nirvana, 311 and the Beastie Boys. Not saying I grew up to be the best person in the world but i sure am glad Britney wasn't who I looked up to, Heaven knows where I would be. I see situations where these kids would do ANYTHING to listen to or sing along with these "role models" OK so I need to also include the 40 year old women who tend to also be obsessed. It is pretty bad that anyone gets that obsessed with ANYTHING let alone a 15 year old. I am vowing that if I am ever lucky enough to have my own children the Disney Channel is BANNED from my home. Any teen bopper music is BANNED from not only my home and car but my children's mouths. I know the title of this maybe threw some people off, I still enjoy doing that. I have a niece coming in September or early October and that is enough for now. Just wanted to vent a little bit.

I never have new pictures.. good thing I don't need them this time

This is a totally random post:
So I just wanted to say, WOW I cannot believe how many people are pregnant. Congratulations to all of you. For those of you are waiting for other means to have a family I wish you the best of luck and I pray for you every night. So there are about 12 people I know who are having babies... I want to say I am so glad that Veronica is having a girl, she deserves it and I can't wait to meet her. I love that my extended family is growing, it also confirms my decisions that holiday visits are off limits, summertime is the way to go.

Speaking of summertime visits. I will be in Utah in less than a month and enjoying a cabin in Sundance. I am excited to go to bridal veil falls and the Timponogus (I am sure that is spelled horribly wrong) caves and just enjoy the outdoors and trees. In Arizona we are already in the 1-teens but i don't mind it. I love how it feels, I love going to the pool at 2 in the afternoon and getting some color.

Work.... hmmm.... well I have been playing the role of manager as a try out for a permanent position for the last two weeks. I feel like everything is going well. I am excited to finish the assignment and see how i did. Ok well that is all i want to write...

Officially a year...

So it has been a year since I cut my hair off. It is crazy but it is almost back to the original length. It also has almost been a year since we moved into the house. We are waiting for our couches to be delivered and some artwork to arrive in the mail and we will be able to post the pictures. We are getting a pool table but that will take a few months to save up for. A lot has happened in the last year. I love Arizona and I feel super blessed that I was able to move here with my husband. Our new ward is great I love that everyone is so close and all the kids are adorable. Anyway, just a quick update while I watch some shows.

The "it" Factor...

Everyone has a song. That one song, it gets you every time. Mine has been a favorite since I first heard it when I was 13 or 14. I am not sure when. It was a very special song, the boy i "loved" all through High School always danced with me to that song. Even when he had a girlfriend when that song came on at the stake dances he always danced with me. Ironically he never dated me, no matter how many times I asked him out or to homecoming or prom. I always got a no. But I always think of him when I hear that song. Times have changed and I have grown, there is always a song. Another song, another line, another man I cared for very much (this time he cared back) Each person I loved has a song. Each part of my life has at least one. I thought I would share a few lyrics from some of the songs that have meant a lot to me and some from a new song that I adore, it can apply to just about any relationship.

Favorite Lyrics:
"And I don't want the world to see me,
Cause I don't think that they'd understand.
When every thing's made to be broken,
I just want you to know who I am."

"I know loving me isn't easy
I'm home and next thing I'm leaving
but when I look at you it's like praying with my eyes
I follow you to sleep so I will find your dream place and hey, I
'm not an angel but girl you make me feel like I know one, one"

"Now our dreams are coming true.
Through the good times and the bad
I'll be standing there by you."

This is the new song that I love:

Share with me the blankets that your wrapped in
because its cold outside cold outside its cold outside
share with me the secrets that you kept in
because its cold inside cold inside its cold inside
and your slowly shaking finger tips
show that your scared like me so
let's pretend we're alone
and I know you may be scared and I know were unprepared
but I don't care

tell me tell me what makes you think that you are invincible
I can see it in your eyes that you're so sure
please don't tell me that I am the only one that's vulnerable
impossible

I was born to tell you I love you
isn't that a song already
I get a B in originality
and it's true I cant go on without you
your smile makes me see clearer
if you could only see in the mirror what I see

and your slowly shaking finger tips
show that your scared like me
so let's pretend we're alone
and I know you may be scared
and I know were unprepared
but I don't care

tell me tell me
what makes you think that you are invincible
I can see it in your eyes that you're so sure
please don't tell me that I am the only one that's vulnerable
impossible

slow down girl your not going anywhere
just wait around and see
maybe I am much more you never no what lies ahead
I promise I can be anyone I can be anything
just because you were hurt doesn't mean you shouldn't bleed
I can be anyone anything I promise I can be what you need

tell me tell me
what makes you think that you are invincible
I can see it in your eyes that your so sure
please don't tell me that I am the only one that's vulnerable
impossible

Go UTES! Number II

I noticed yesterdays post did update for anyone who is following.... Maybe this one will

GO UTES!

This weekend was Halloween. We didn't do anything other than passing out candy. Well the Big event of this weekend was actually the BLACK OUT, this is the Utah Utes game where they wear all black uniforms and the crowd is asked to also wear all black. Last year was the first year they did this, it was also close to Halloween and we played TCU. This year we played Wyoming. Watching this game made me a little sad. It made me remember how much fun it is to have season tickets to the Utes. As much as I HATED the cold games where your toes freeze just walking to the game I realized that I actually miss Utah. I know I know but there definitely are some things about it that are amazing. I miss my friends and family that I had there. If we could just get everyone down here. Yeah right. Well although I miss Utah and can now admit that Arizona is more than amazing. It was considered "jacket weather" this week because it was in the high 40's in the morning. It was great. I love this, I can wear a light sweater and be perfect. It also is supposed to be back in the 90's this week so... not a whole lot else is going on, I am in training for a new position that I LOVE and can't wait to get back on the phones and make some money. On a side note... GO YANKEES!!!

Cars and other stuff...

So about a week and a half ago I was on my way to work, sitting at a RED light and about 4 seconds after it turned green BAM I got rear ended. LAME.... well anyway it took about an hour for the cops to show up and write up the report. I had a killer headache all day. Thankfully I have a great insurance company, it doesn't matter that I didn't know they were great until now (other than how cheap they are) anyway, they got me an appointment at the service shop the next morning with a rental waiting! Oh so my insurance company is Progressive and I am officially recommending them. Not only is my insurance the same price as I paid in high school but the rental car they gave me was an '09 Civic... they always try and match the car that you have so it was great that I didn't have to drive around in some tiny hatch back thingy. Well anyway on to other things, oh nothing else has happened. The weather here is still great, right around 100 everyday still so that is nice. I will update again soon... I am hoping to have some big news this week.
