Well...I got a new laptop so hopefully I'll be updating this blog much more often.

See ya soon!

A quick update

I've had a crazy couple of weeks at work. Last week I was so stressed out, when I came home Dave had drawn me a bath and bought the new book I wanted for me. He's a keeper. :)

Dave had LASIK eye surgery done on Thursday. It seems to have went really well, his right cornea is still slightly inflamed around the flap.

We went to AZ back at the begining of April...and LOVED it.

I came home to find that one technician had quit while I was gone and last week my other full time tech was sick all week. crazy

I am SO behind on work PAPERWORK too....even crazier.

So, yesterday & today while Dave has been taking it easy & recovering, I have scrapbooked. It relaxes me and I needed it.

Tomorrow is back to the grind. (Plus I have to go in early to do the controlled substance annual inventory). ICK.

Monday is Cami's birthday! Love you sis!

Funtimes with Matt & Mary!

Matt & Mary were in town from Salt Lake for the weekend. It was so fun hanging out with them! We went to Palisades on Thursday night, Salty's Brunch on Saturday and played cards at our house! They are so fun....we can't wait to see them again in July! Thanks for coming to visit guys!

A Productive Weekend

This weekend we went to Seattle for brunch at Salty's....YUM!
We met Bonnie, Josh and Rian! (Rian is such a doll!)

It was a beautiful non-rainy day!

And...I scrapped like mad:

March Madness

Wow, I can't believe how much of a blog procrastinator I am! It seems we have been so busy, yet I can't think of what to write here! How is that? Does that mean we have been busy doing unimportant things? You be the judge.

We took our dogs on a really long walk 2 weeks ago when we had a really nice (read: sunny but cold) Friday. They were sore for 3 days afterwards! A two hr walk was a big change from the 20-min nightly walk in the dark that they usually get! Plus, they loved seeing & sociallizing with other dogs!

I haven't been scrapbooking much lately...I've felt an need to get "prepared". It is a bit last minute if you ask me, buy looking at the world around us! So, we spent several weekend making sure our 72-hr kits are ready, then beefing up our food storage!

It feels so good to be more prepared!

Finally, I whipped out a few scrapbook layouts with my Cocoa Daisy March kit:

Enjoy!

Picture tag

Stephanie tagged anyone who wanted to do this so:





What you're supposed to do is go to the 6th folder on your computer and pick the 6th picture.

Since I am posting from Dave's computer rather than my lap top, this is a rather old...2007-ish picture of my neice Chloe at ballet class!

So, I tag her mom: CArlen!

Let's see what you've got!

Creativeness

Still playing catch-up

I can't believe how often I know I need to update this blog, and I intentionally avoid it. what does that say about me?
I thought I'd do a brief post updating what's been going on for the last 2 weeks:
1) We spent a fun 4 day weekend in AZ where we got in one day of pool time before it rained.
2) We had a yummy V-day dinner at Shaun & Darcy's
3) I've been scrapbooking...both original and digital. (LOVE the CM Storybook 2 software!)
4) My brother got married in Las Vegas! Congrats to Mark and Christina!
5) I'm loving the TNT show 'Leverage'
6) Still loving the Mentalist, LOST, and 24.
7) I got my organizational goal for January done...now to start & finish February's in the next 7 days. (Yeah, right).
8) I had a fun day playing with Dave today. We drove to Mt. Vernon. What a beautiful day!
9) I've been reading lots!
10) I had a fun late-birthday lunch with my sisters who got me the cutest gift basket!
I'll post pictures soon!

Finally we saw a movie that had two really great lines:
"Character is something best retained than retreived".
"Sometimes, a man meets his destiny on the road he took to avoid it."
(the movie: The International)

Neglected....

Our blog is totally neglected too...(I just totally stole Laura's title...Luv ya!)
So I thought I'd do a short recap of what we'd been up to lately:

-I had the worst work day of my career (ok, I might be exaggerating a little- but it was BAD) on Monday. When I came home from work Dave had drawn me a bath, lit candles around it and had my favorite scrapbooking magazines laid out by the tub. What a total sweetheart! He's a keeper!

-We are leaving for a long weekend in AZ again this weekend....looks like it might rain there though. ;(

-We had an awesome fun Superbowl party at our house last Sunday....even though our team lost to the STEALers. (AND, I had to work until 6pm)

-Next week I am on vacation from work....and let me tell you, I am SO ready!

-My organizational goal for January was to clean out and organize the closet in Dave's den...oops. Now I guess I'll need to do it this next week....along with Feb's goal.

-Yesterday was Kerry's birthday! Happy birthday Bro!

-Today is Mark's birthday! Happy Birthday to my other Bro!

-Jarom is going to dog sit/housesit for us while we are away. Thank goodness for that Bro too!

-Michael is waiting for MRI results on the possible return of his fatty cell foot cancer...Sad for that Bro. Love ya!

-I have such a great family!

-Cami & Cosette miss Mike...(he's my Bro-in-law). You guys need to come play with me next week! Love ya Sis!

-Carlen's kids get to make Valentine's cookies with me on Wednesday...then we'll go see Tanner's play! YAY!

-Mom is waiting patiently for me to come paint her picture wall. Anyone good at painting that wants to help?

-Today I don't work until noon and I need to do some laundry to have clean clothes to pack.

-Dave got some cool new boots at Nordstrom, and I got a cute shirt.

-We LOVE the movie TAKEN. It is Awesome!
