Happy Early Birthday Chad!

Last night we threw Chad a surprise party for his 30th birthday. His birthday isn't until next weekend but since I'll be in Chicago I insisted on having it this weekend. I'm really weird when it comes to parties at my house. I feel that I need to be there to supervise. Some people have no respect for other peoples things and it's proven to me time and time again. I hate to complain, this party was for Chad and I wanted it to be a night that he wouldn't forget. So if you read this sorry for complaining! Most of the people that came to the party know how obsessive compulsive I am. They respect me and my house. There were a few however, that either don't care or are just plain assholes!! Someone walked through my house with a lit cigarette. First off, I hate smoking. I think it is the most disgusting thing in the world. I can't help but think people who smoke are dirty. They stink!! What else are we supposed to think, anyway why would someone think that is acceptable behavior to do in someone elses home? Seriously!! Then, as the party was wrapping up someone puked on my freaking couch. The bathroom was 5 feet away and my backyard was 1 foot away. What the hell? Thanks to Brittany for letting me know someone puked so I could go and clean it up! What is wrong with people? Needless to say, after last night I swore we were never going to have another party again but I've decided that I just need to be pickier in who I/we invite. It seems like the people that did the things I mentioned above always do something disrespectful when they are invited to something. I should mention the person who brought the cigarette into my house also puked on my sister at my wedding. She seriously needs to get a freaking clue that she can't handle alcohol and that she shouldn't drink in public! Ugh, I probably should have waited to post this until I calmed down but I'm too mad and I had to vent. The party was actually a lot of fun until the end. You can see by the pictures. Chad, I hope you had a fun night. I'm sorry you had to leave early. John and I love you like a brother. Thanks for being such an amazing friend. Thanks to ALMOST everyone for coming! I hope you had a fun time!

Go Utes!!

Football season has officially begun!  John couldn't be more excited.  John loves football more than anything else in this world.  He says he loves me more, but I just don't think it's true.  J/K!  The game started at 6:00 on Saturday so I went to the gym at 12:00.  As I was leaving John said, "what time do you think you'll be home"?  I said around "2:ooish".  Well 2:ooish turned into 4:00ish so we wouldn't have very much time to tailgate. Well, you can no longer park at the VA hospital so we had to park at East High!  Seriously, 2 miles away from the stadium.  At least that's what it felt like!!  No time for tailgating!!   So my dumb ass wasn't paying attention on our HIKE over to the stadium and tripped over the old uneven sidewalk.  I twisted my ankle pretty bad.  I thought I sprained it.  That's all I need!!  If it wasn't for John catching my stupid ass, I would have totally ate shit and landed right on my face!  I had to laugh, only something like that would happen to me!  I have a little crush on our kicker # 35 Louie Sakoda!  He's been my favorite player the past 2 years!  I'll be sad when he graduates but am pretty certain he'll be picked up in the NFL draft!  The game was pretty exciting, the Ute's won.  Winning always makes the game more fun!!  

Final Score!!  Go Utes!

My swollen ankle.  Notice it's my bad foot!

John's serious football face.  Also probably wondering why I'm not watching the game!

This must have been halftime!!  I was able to get him to take a picture with me.

Our cheerleaders are so cute.  They have to do pushups every time we score!  Poor girls!

Touchdown Utah!!

Utah Elvis!  He was funny!

United Way Day Of Caring

Thursday was the United Way Day Of Caring!  So I headed down to the Gateway around 6:45 a.m.  There were about 2600 people that volunteered in Utah alone.  My company had about 50 people that volunteered.  We went to the Neighborhood House Children's Center and did a bunch of different things.  The Neighborhood House is a  daycare for low income families.  A lot of the kids didn't even speak English.  I helped out with the carnival for the kids.  They were so cute, it was fun to see how excited they got!  I will definitely do it again next year. 

 

This was my company's banner.

This is me and Melissa with the United Way Ghost Busters!

Me and some of the guys I work with.  

Drew and Julie, they gave me crap because I wouldn't paint.  I didn't wear clothes to paint in!!

Me, Maci, and London.   Adorable kids!!

Scott and Ed.  Scott cut the extension cord in half with the hedge trimmer!! Oops!

The HR crew painting faces!!

I couldn't resist!  So adorable.

I don't think Steve knew what he was getting himself into!!

I loved it, I loved it, I loved it!!!

Breaking Dawn was everything I wanted and more!!!!  I read all 700 plus pages in less than 2 days!!  I'm not going to say too much, just in case you plan on reading it!!  We can discuss later if you'd like!  Please, please, please (if you haven't already) read the Twilight series!!  Everyone I have talked into reading them has loved them.  I apologize ahead of time for your life being put on hold while you read them!!  Oh and yesterday,  we ran a few errands and as I was walking out of Nordstrom look what I saw on the back of a car window!!  

Ha ha, I love it.  I'm obsessed!!  I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do with myself now that I'm done with the series.  Hmm, I'll probably read them again!!  Oh, and if you've already read the Twilight Series and are in need of some good suggestions, may I suggest a few of my other favorites so far this year.  Marley and Me- If you're a dog lover, this is a must read.  The Last Lecture- If you need a boost, this is for you.  Truly inspirational and uplifting.  Eat, Pray, Love- I mostly recommend this for the girls!  And last but not least, Skinny Bitch- You'll never want to eat an animal again.  I want to start a book club, so if you're interested let me know.

It's Almost Time!!!!

I'm a nerd, but I can hardly wait!!!!  If you haven't read the Twilight Series, I highly recommend them!  I'm obsessed!!  I read the first 3 books in a week and a half and I'm planning on reading the 4th and final book in the series this weekend!!  Happy reading to my fellow Twilighters!!

I love John Mayer!!!!!!!!!

Sorry this is so late!  In case you haven't figured it out yet, I love John Mayer!!  The concert was amazing!  We got there at 4:30 and you could hear him warming up.  I instantly started screaming!!  When we finally got through the gates and were directed where to sit, I looked at John and said, "I thought we had better tickets than this, but these are pretty good".  As I finished saying that, these girls walked up and told us that we were in their seats.  I was kind of rude and said no, these are our seats.  They looked at our tickets and said, "you guys are in the section ahead of this".  I started freaking out again.  We were 3 rows away from the stage!  It so pays off to be a fan club member for John Mayer!!  Colbie Caillat opened up for him.  She is gorgeous.  John has a new crush!  We ran into some fun people at the concert.  Little Miss Abby Gudac (Adams).  Sorry Abs, you'll always be Gudac to me!  You're just as gorgeous as ever!!  We also ran into my cousin in laws (John's cousins) Haley and her husband Jabren and Sara.  It was so good to see all of you!  It made the night even more special, knowing that I'm not the only person obsessed with Mr. Mayer (Haley)!!  If you ever get a chance to see John Mayer in concert, do it!  I promise you won't be disappointed!  He truly is a gifted musician and you can tell that he loves what he is doing because of his fans!  I'm sad that the concert is over, but I look forward to when I can see him again!
