Anybody staying up until 2 am to watch the Royal wedding? I think I want to! Even though we can DVR the whole thing-i think it would be more exciting to have a viewing party with tea and crumpets. Or maybe peanut butter and jelly.
I just need an excuse to wear a cool hat.
I have a feeling I might be watching it alone...in my fancy hat.
my prince charming needs his beauty sleep.

Cheers to Kate & Willy!

catching up

I have a lot of catching up to do. I took almost 10 days off of work. 10 days! Pure Bliss. We spent time in St. George and Las Vegas with the Buies, and as usual, it went by way too fast. Why?! It was a blast. I had to regroup yesterday and prepare myself to come back into work. I brought this book with me on the trip...i'm only into the first 40 pages (I was obviously a little too busy and distracted to read), but it seems pretty good so far. I'll keep you posted!

I will also post some pics of our trip (the appropriate ones. wink)

I snapped these yesterday when I got home from work. I was so excited to see something other than SNOW in our front yard. For all I know these could just be very pretty weeds. Whatever they are, they made me happy.
We have been in spring cleaning mode this week. We cleared out our garage which was full of crap that had probably been there since the house was built in 1932. We found some gems, but mostly crap. And by 'gems' I mean a brand new set of blinds. This kind of stuff excites me.
Then yesterday we proceeded to clean our guest room, which was slowly starting to look like an episode of 'Hoarders: Buried Alive'.
Does anyone else have a junk room that's slightly emabarrassing/hazardous to your health?? humor me and tell me yes.
If it weren't for our house guest this weekend, I think we would have suffocated in piles of our own clothes and 2 year-old wedding gifts never put to use. I found 4 sets of measuring cups, new towels, the missing plate to our dinner set, and a crock pot! who knew hoarding could be so much fun?!

Here's to spring cleaning!

Batter Up

Its softball season! and that means SUMMER. You can best bet i'll be there every game to slap his butt as he heads out onto the field.

Hopefully tomorrow night he'll hit a Dinger.
My Dad would be so proud that I know what a 'Dinger' is.

Friday! Friday! Friday!

It seems my Friday posts have become my weekend to-do list. There is usually so much going on, but this weekend I can't say we have any exciting plans.

I'm hoping to convert our junk room into a study for Adam and attempt to get rid of the 1 lb block of chocolate in our pantry by making cookies. Pretty exciting, huh?

Adam is hopefully starting grad school next month (while keeping his full time job). I got a glimpse of what life will be like when he spent the other night awake until 2 in the morning working on admissions and fixing his resume. bleh. I sat in the living room twiddling my thumbs and patiently waiting for someone to entertain me. I need to make more friends. That, or get a puppy. ooh...a puppy!

I think my weekend plans just got a little more exciting!

April Showers

Wowy. we did a lot this past weekend. Sunday morning was blissful. I got to sleep in WITH my Husband. Imagine that! waking up next to your spouse?! It was great. I made breakfast Sunday morning and we watched Conference all day in our PJs.

+++
And now it is April. and April means SPRING! (it also means this). I busted out the mini cadbury eggs and decorated all things Easter. I love this time of year.

Looking forward to Conference Weekend!

Also looking forward to getting my hair cut; chop! chop!, eating yummy food, cleaning my house, and sleeping in with the boy.

The 'cleaning my house' part was my April fools joke.

Happy Friday.
