Parowan

So last weekend Steven and I decided to take a trip to my home town of Parowan since I am on call over all of the holidays this year. We got off to a late start because we decided to stop at Walmart to see if we could try and make a stereo and guess what it worked!!! I officially have the most GHETTO stereo on this planet we have a Ipod charger plugged into the cigarette lighter and then into the almighty Ipod and then bought some super sweet speakers that plug into the earphone jack on the Ipod... I realize that it is really lame, but can you imagine a 3 hour drive without music I sure can't... don't worry pictures are coming later!!!

After we got to my parents house we introduced Zoey to Polo (my parental puppy), at first they weren't quite sure what they thought of each other but after a few minutes they were good ol' pals... they played all weekend and when we brought Zoe home she went through Polo with drawls.

It was really great to visit all of my Family, we got to see my parents (duh we stayed with them). We also got to spend some time with my cousin Jana, she just got home form a mission so it has been a while. I absolutely LOVE Jana we were really close growing up and it was fabulous to spend some good quality time with her. We also went and saw my Grandma Jensen, she is such a funny lady, she has her quirks but I love her!!! We talked a lot about her upcoming surgery (Friday ahhh). She is getting her hip replaced, I have very mixed emotions about her operation, but I am trying to have faith that whatever the lord has in store for our family and for my Grandma is for the best. I am hoping for the best.... We also spent some time with my sister Lori and her four kids, I love them and it is had to not see them all the time, I almost feel like an older sister to Loris kids and not an aunt... So obliviously I was glad to spend some time with them...

All and all it was a great trip. I was really glad that even though I trip wasn't long we made the best of it!!!

My dog turned into a RAT!!!

So last week Steven and I decided that it would be a good idea to shave Zoey. So we went out and bought a razor and went home to accomplish our goal. It wasn't as easy as we thought it would be, it took the both of us a hour to shave her!! I was completely covered in her hair, I was trying to hold her while Steven shaved her, so I ended up looking like hair was puked all over me. Steven even though he had the responsibility of shaving her still got completely covered in hair as well. Luckily we have a really small dog or we would have been in trouble!!! Luckily Zoey doesn't care what she looks like because all of her once black hair now looks like it is a combo of gray and blond.. and she looks more like a rat than a dog.... Oh well we still love our little ZOE....

Her picture will be added later but because of problems with blogspot it can't be loaded just yet!!!

FINISHED

So today I have devoted almost my entire day to finishing things that need to be done. I finally finished my homework, thank heavens it gets so repetitive it makes me crazy, so I couldn't be happier that it is done, oh and thanks to nan I only have to do half the amount of work or I might have needed medication to finish that assignment.

I also finished The Reimann 2008 book. For the past two years we have been making these books, they are a really good idea... The only problem is that since it is only the two of us and I never take any pictures, (if you haven't noticed from my blog). So finding pictures proved to quite the task, luckily Jen takes lots of pictures and we hang out with their family a lot or I would royally be screwed right now.... nothing new and no pictures.....equals a really bad book. It is all over I am done!!!

I also have to thank my wonderful husband who not only cooked me a fabulous dinner (meat loaf, loaded mashed potatoes, green beans, and home made bread) he has been patient with me all day.

So all of you can start laughing our new calling is Sunbeams..... This is defiantly going to be entertaining......
