I can't act my age

This one is my new favorite.

I have it saved on my phone

and I laugh out loud EVERY SINGLE time I see it.

This one is for Katy.

It is another of our new favorites.

Also for Katy

Family in town

This little monkey has managed to capture my heart. 

I need to be kissing those cheeks!

And he actually lets you cuddle with him. 

Yes Please!

Thanks to Dad and Melane for letting us have so much time to play together. 

I have no pictures, but the rest of the siblings were cherished and cuddled as well. 

We were only missing Jarom, and he was certainly missed.

My Logan boy always complains that Utah is boring and all we do is visit old relatives.

I used to feel much the same way.

Then you grow up and realize Dad's sister are HILARIOUS!

Until that kicks in we thought we'd show him a good Utah time.

So we went tubing at Gorgoza Park in Park City.

Not going to lie the first trip down was one of the scariest things I have ever done. 

 I know the mountain doesn't look too intimidating. 

I myself thought it looked kinda lame from the bottom.

Then half way down I thought I was going to die for sure.

Which made it one of my new favorite things to do. 

We made 4 runs before it started to snow.

and get really cold. 

We will for sure be making more trips in the future.

We also spent the rest of the weekend:

* Having dinner with Melane's Family in Daybreak.

* DELICIOUS Puerto Rican food at her sister's house.

* Walking around Downtown Salt Lake.

*Going out for thanksgiving, just our immediate family.

*Getting to know my brother's wife better, through a game of boxers and brief my dad swore he'd stop playing if it got inappropriate, but played to the end anyway!

* Going to the lighting of temple square and running into David Archuleta. 

* Taking care of the kiddos while their parents run to the temple.

*Lots and lots of coloring.

*Lots of cuddling.

* Dinner at Madoox with Dad's family, including his hilarious sisters. 

Can't wait for December and spending more time with my family!

Recommendation or... Another Confession.

Remember way back here when I confessed that I can't buy boxed food?
Things like Ramen or Hamburger Helper?

Well I also have a hard time admitting that there is a TV show I enjoy watching.
I know there is nothing wrong with TV in moderation.
But I worry that if I confess to enjoying one show,
Someone will think I go home and veg all night...
Eating Cheetos and cardboard pizzas with one sock half way off,
and not even caring.
Irrational I know. 


Cut to the best part of today... 
Discussing Modern Family over lunch with my boss,
both of us laughing right out loud.
It has been a long time since I found a show funny,
AND generally clean.

P.S. We also love Once Upon a Time,
but as soon as I recommend it they'll start adding sex scenes.
Such seems to be the nature of Hollywood.
Or they won't add any sex and the show will get canceled mid season
and I'll buy the DVD.

and who is already watching it and freaked out by Rumpelstiltskin?
and who is upset there wasn't a new episode this weekend?


Katy and I don't have a TV.
Thank goodness for Hulu so I can watch my two shows.

Lies,
three shows...
Because who doesn't love Psych
and have a secret crush on Gus?
Or not so secret?

A confession of sorts

So here's the confession. I am a 29 year old woman (that's not the confession) a 29 year old woman who loves those stupid pictures of animals with captions. I look at them and I can NOT STOP laughing. My friend Leah (yeah this is the second time you got a blog mention) goes out of her way to look for them and send them to me now.

Here are a few of my favorites:

Funny

Why is this funny? I don't even know. But I am starting to LOL now.

Memories of High school in Jersey anyone?

Katy's favorite. She laughs uncontrollably EVERY time she sees it. 

My favorite. I don't care how old I get. When I am in a nursing home, someone put this picture on my door so I can always find my way back to my room at sunshine terrace. Because even then I will still break into uncontrollable giggling.

Lately

Why did my phone language change to French?

It is driving me crazy and I don't know how to fix it.

*****

Rocky Mountain Chocolate apple? Yes Please! I'll take two!

 "If I tell you I'm stalking you it's less creepy, right?" ~Leah.

 

***** 

 

It's true it's not. 

*****

Who needs a recipe for salsa? Really?

I see them on Pinterest ALL the time.

*****

Working in the temple gives me REALLY strange dreams.

STRANGE!!! 

*****

  

Dinner with the best kind of friends. 

*****

I have a new favorite article of clothing. 

I wish I had time to run back to Park City to buy one in another color.

*****

Forget Pinterest! I could spend the rest of my life on Food Gawker. Let's be honest that is really all I use Pinterest for anyway.

 This post is giving me much grief. For some reason it isn't saving as the default font so It isn't showing up on my black background. Thus the lovely shade of Blue. Sorry

Bananas

This probably really isn't that funny but I couldn't stop laughing about it!

Me:"You can't Rhyme banana with banana!"
Jonathan: "Well they had two different meanings!"
Katy:"There is only one meaning for banana."
Me: "I can think of three."
Jonathan: "Right, like that girl is bananas."
Me: "I don't like it you can't rhyme bananas and bananas."
Jonathan: "Well what else rhymes with Montana?"
Katy: "Chose a different state."
Jonathan: "But he's from Montanta!"
Me: "Banana does not rhyme with Montana!"

Ward Choir

There seems to be a trend in this religion of which I am a part,
to have choir directors who are.... how do I say it?

Very enthusiastic.

I get that you want to magnify your calling.
I get that you love music.
I get that you want a good turn out.
I like having a good turn out to things I am in charge of too.
That is all fine and great and good.

But when I tell you I can't sing, it would be really great if you believed me.
I am not fishing for a compliment.
I am not making excuses.
I am not too lazy to stay another hour after church.
I don't care if you made brownies.

I CAN NOT SING.

Believe me!


And it is okay because, I have a lot of other talents.
So it is okay if that is one I don't have.
We can't all be amazing at everything.
