Mom's Day


This post is gonna be random 
HAPPY LATE MOTHER'S DAY!
I love my mom so much!
She always has the best advice, always knows what to say or do to help someone out. 
My mom is the nicest person I know.
one small example:
She went to California to visit her sister, on the plane ride back to Utah she met 2 girls who go to BYU and chatted with them the whole time. She then drove them from the airport with their luggage to their apartment in provo, then she invited them over the next week for dinner at her house. 
She is amazing, and did all of that without blinking an eye. That's
just the kind of person she is.
I'm lucky to have this incredible person in my life
I know some people who don't have a good relationship with their mom, 
and some people who have a mom, but their mom hardly acts like a loving mother should.
I am grateful and I know that the Lord knew I would need a strong, loving, faithful mom to be an example to me.

Min and her cute family moved to Orem for the summer. I'm so happy that my niece is only 7 minutes away from me! I am definately gonna take advantage of that for the summer!

Tae's 'mean' face. adorable
Molly lounging
Surprisingly me and Ty have been able to spend a fair amount of time together lately. Which is weird cause with both of us working retail + my full time job, we don't see each other that much. We have been able to see Iron Man 3 - loved it. and The Great Gatsby, It was really good as well!
Tyler is a sucker for arcade games
Saturday Becca and Steven celebrated Jameson's first birthday! He is such a cute little boy!
here he is opening up our gift, sorry this looks like a creeper picture. 
it was fun to see them even if it was for just a short time.

Summer is basically here! We broke down and bought a pass of all passes, I'm so excited!

the BIG 2-5

I celebrated my 25th Birthday last friday!
I can't believe it, 25 seems old to me. 
but then I remember that Tyler is turning 30 in august and I feel a little bit better!

If you had asked me 5 years ago where I would be when I was 25, I would have thought
probably be a stay at home mom with 2 kids.
 HAHAHA
isn't it funny how life doesn't go the way you planned.

Anyways, I had a great birthday! Only had to work a half day at the dental office, and then my mom, sister and brother took me to lunch. Then I went shopping with Nae. 
Tyler took me to dinner at Tucanos, then we planned on seeing the new Tina Fey movie (I love her)
but because Tyler is dyslexic - haha
we ended up in the theater showing 'Oblivion' so we just stayed and watched that.

I got lots of presents, I was so spoiled by my family and friends! THANK YOU


I also got to see my niece which made my bday perfect!!

Random Pics


So we finally got our car fixed
Doesn't it look beautiful!?
I'm super happy with it. 
except the headlight on the other side looks terrible compared to this new one, so the car still looks kinda ghetto, but it will have to do. haha
Barry's battle scar - doesn't it look so good!?
almost all healed up
Carly's Birthday was last week! We celebrated it with cake and ice cream and games 
isn't she so pretty!? I love her so much, I'm glad she married my amazing brother

Chopped my hair off on Saturday - 5 inches!
It seems like a huge difference to me, and I'm loving it shorter! it's a nice change

new blog design!! + updates

Guys, Do you LOVE my new design!?
I love it so much!
KELSEY did everything! she is so talented. I told her ideas and she came up with everything and was so sweet and easy to work with! Her contact email is on her blog (click on her name) if you want to get a hold of her for a new blog design. you will NOT regret it at all!
Kelsey thank you SO so much!!!

 We have been busy working crazy hours - that's normal though. 
A few weeks ago as I was getting ready to bed, I was washing my hands and Barry was right by my feet. I looked down at him and noticed he was bleeding on his back! I knelt down and looked at his wound. I thought he had been stabbed by something, because I could see a silver thing inside his back! I got really worried and called Tyler - it was midnight and he was still at work. I asked him what I should do!? He said to not do anything and he would be home within the hour.
Once ty got home, he shaved barry's hair around the wound so we could get a better look at it. Tyler got some tweezers and pulled out a silver pellet bullet... SOMEONE SHOT OUR DOG.
We called the police and they came and took pictures of barry and the pellet and asked Ty some questions. I stayed inside because I was crying. Who would do that to my sweet little dog!? 
I was actually really upset and sad. And tyler was really mad. 
Poor Barry!

We cleaned out his wound and a few days later, the scab was looking really gross. I walked over to my next door neighbor who also happens to be our awesome vet. he took one look at it and said it was infected. He gave us some good antibiotics and barry finished them just a few days ago.
His scab actually fell off last night and it looks a million times better and I'm so glad. He is almost all healed up.

We have a thought about who it might have been, but sadly no way to prove it.
So tyler took matters into his own hands and installed security cameras. haha I'm sure people think we are extreme, but seriously I do not want this to happen ever again! My dogs are always in our fenced backyard and the fact that we have to worry about that is ridiculous. 
I really hope this doesn't happen again!

Barry and Molly had a puppy play date yesterday with Skye! ^ She is so cute and is a cocker spaniel just like Molly, they had lots of fun and were worn out by the end of the night.

Last week I finally got my upgraded new phone and I am LOVING it so far!

my 1st accident

guys -- my new blog design is gonna be SO CUTE. Thanks to Kelsey.
I'll give out her info in case anyone wants their blog re-designed.

So last Monday, I had my first car accident. 
not only was it Monday morning, but I just happened to get in a wreck on my way to work. Definately made for a crappy monday.

Luckily the girl I hit was the sweetest girl EVER. She was really understanding, super nice and didn't even seem mad one bit.
My car got the brunt of it all, I only made some scratches on her back bumper. It was still scary even though I hit her going only about 8-10 mph.

My poor honda.

Right after it happened I called Tyler. And of course I cried. I'm so freakin' emotional cause of my birth control but mostly I was just mad at myself. It was an accident though. Tyler showed up and called in to make a claim for me because I was so upset. 

At the end of the day, it is just a car. But it still sucks that it happened. I am really grateful that the girl I hit was not injured or hurt at all. and Neither was I. I didn't even have whiplash the next day.

I will be getting it fixed this week. And it's great that I will have a rental car while my car is  in the shop getting fixed. Insurance does come in handy sometimes!

February, won't you be my Valentine?

Another post with terrible quality photos
I don't have a camera. 
and the camera on my phone is super crappy, and I guess I'm not cool enough to have an iphone
so my 2 blog followers will just have to deal with the terrible pictures, till a miracle happens.

My sister Min, is talented with a camera and she took some photos of me. This was the first pink shirt I bought. I usually don't wear pink. Thanks Min for making my skin look completely fabulous, even though it really isn't! you are magical :)
Tyler gave the puppies a much needed hair-cut.
Molly walked in and had a mohawk haha. But Tyler shaved it off 15 minutes later, cause I didn't like it.
Barry is so good at doing lots of tricks, Molly... not so much. But she's learning. She likes to watch Barry perform
The Walking Dead starts again THIS SUNDAY. I'm stoked, and this is what I would look like as a walker:

(you can be a walker too! - www.deadyourself.com)

My pretty niece. I miss her. Check out those curls!!
Had my first experience at Buffalo Wild Wings with Deveren & Kiara
WE LOVE hanging out with them. They are such a blast! and I feel like Kiara is a long lost sister.
Sorry about the shadowy pic

I hope you are all watching this fabulous new show! IF NOT, you aren't far behind. There have only been 3 episodes, it airs Monday nights. It's about a serial killer, and it is CREEPY. But I love it and how can you not like kevin bacon?! (THANK you Elise for telling me about this fabulous show) I'm hooked


Ty gave me some money from his bonus check (what a nice guy!)
so I totally bought this, and I cannot wait for it to arrive. I'm gonna have amazing abs, just you wait. haha.

and... I'm getting my blog designed so it will actually look like I know what I'm doing. I'm way excited!
Happy February!
