Aruba, Jamaica....

Aruba, Jamaica, ooo I want to take ya to Bermuda, Bahama.... So that's right Im in Ft. Lauderdale right now, oh it's about 80 degrees, that's right I don't have to wear a coat when I walk outside.. Why am I in Ft. Lauderdale you ask? Well that is an excellent question. Tomorrow 12-16 I will be boarding a Carnival cruise to the Bahamas, Grand Caymans, and Jamaica man.. So I wont be able to post a blog for week ( weird.. as if that's unusual ) Well I will be thinking of you all while Jess and I are basking in the sun on a tropical beach..

It's been awhile

So I know that I haven't been the best at keeping my bolg up but I promise I'm going to try and be better..



I think one of my problems is that I'm not very creative and I don't know what to write about. I was one of those people in English class that hated it when you had to write a paper and the professor would say "be creative and think of something to write about....." and as that was being said i would slump down into my seat and close my eyes and think "oh great, just give me a subject to write about" Maybe I thought I was just too busy to actually come up with something to write... Well I guess I can be creative when I put my mind to it, so maybe the above statement isn't entirely true.. Maybe I'm just trying to make excuses for myself about not keeping up on this little thing called my blog..



Oh the weather outside is frightful.... So last night it started snowing and it is still snowing! I love it! Where I live, our house is right on a hill so when it's snowing and the plows haven't come up the roads yet to clear them, its seems that it takes people at least two tries to get up our snowy slippery road so we like to turn the lights off (so people cant see us) and watch their efforts in trying to get up the road.. It's actually very entertaining.

Last night probably around 1:00 am in honor of the new snow Jessi had a great idea to get garbage bags and use them to slide down our treacherous road... So me, Jessi, Beau, Kyle, and Eric slid down our road on big huge black garbage bags, it seriously was a blast! Oh and I made my very first snow angel of the year in my front yard. I must say it was an exceptional snow angel.

well for know that's all because I want to go outside and play in the snow :)

All Hallows Eve

Well hello blogger world.. SO I know I haven't been very good at posting current and up to date blogs but I've made a vow to my very good friend Rachel that I will keep my blog current... So this is for you dawg! Ok so I have a lot of things to write about but I don't want this one blog entry to be a novel so I just write about....All Hallows Eve ( I bet the title gave that away..) So Ill be honest I'm not a huge fan of Halloween, I cant stand how there are like 5 different days of parties and trying to figure out a Halloween costume to impress your friends... It's just all too much for me sometimes.. But this Halloween was actually fun, even though I did end up going to 2 different parties... I'm going to share my Halloweenie ( as Jess would say) pictures with you.. Now there are a lot of them but I don't think most of you will mind, because if you are like me you love to look at pictures.. So here goes...




First off is the Halloween party I went to in Draper with Hilda. I wasn't going to go because I hadn't picked out a Halloween costume but Hilda, the great friend that she is, helped me think of a costume. Which was as you see on the left was a bunny costume. I know not very original but it worked out great and was a hit.

Hilda went with the very sexy Devil costume as you see on the right and boy did she make a great Devil

No but like I said it was a really fun party ( I was pleasantly surprised) a lot of our friends were there.. Speaking of that, the picture to the right is of me and my friend Rhett who happened to be at the party also.. Actually he had to wait for us off the freeway because we didn't think we'd be able to find the house it was at so he was kind enough to wait for us so we could follow him. Its a good thing he didn't because we would have totally got lost.. It was up in this ritzy neighborhood with gargantuan homes

Ok so actual ALL Hallows eve we went to a party at Hilda's mansion, that's right mansion.. but first I went to work that day and we were told we could dress up for Halloween if we decided to and I was quite surprised how many people dressed up. Me and the girls in my department decided we'd dress up as Contractors, and this is funny because we deal with Contractors all day long, we work in the Construction Draw Department. I think our Contractors got a kick out of it.. We were told that we were allowed to swear all day because that's what Contractors do and it must be true because Ken, my boss and a number of other people said so.. Here's some pictures

This is us in the Draw Dept. From left to Right; Me, Erin Pratt, Sarah Durbano, and of course Rachel Bingham ( Dont we totally look like Contractors!)










This me and Rachel.. Im going to have to give shout outs for my costume a big shout out to Rhett for the hat, thank you Rhett! And My dad for the tool belt.. Thank you!

This my boss Ken.. I like his mug.. Go Cougars! but the slippers are my favorite..

This is Chris Kellett whom I like to just call Kellett.. Ok now the next picture is my favorite

This is our Hommie G Dawg Clint.. And the picture speaks for it self.. Ha ha ha I love it!

Ok so thats all the work pictures I have.. I wish I had more because Im missing some of the key people.. Like Emily and Wendi



Ok now for the pictures of the crazy party at the Mansion house.. Get ready!


Ok so this is pre-party. I was actually excited about my costume this year (which Im usually not) I was a classy 20's flapper girl.. See all the feathers..

Heres Beau, Jess ( who is also a very good looking flapper girl) and Zach

Here are the 3 flapper girls.. Hilda, Kathleen, and Jess

Now I think this was a pretty inventive Halloween costume.. These boys are clouds!

I really like this picture, except it's Missing Hilda and Jess.. :(

This is what we call one lucky guy...

This is me and my good friend Lee.. Side note Jess says Im making a seductive look in this picture and I think I agree

This me Mathias, and Jim.. I love this picture of Jim!

Doesn't Shanna look great!

This is my sexy friend Dre and me

This is me and Billy Joe from Green Day! Ok maybe it's me and Rhett..

SO I have a ton more great Halloween pictures but I think you're probably tired of reading and Im tired of posting pictures.. But I hope that you all enjoyed my most recent blog and you were able to live vicariously through my Halloween pictures.. Until next time.. Happy belated Halloweenie!

Ok so everyone has been telling me I need to make another entry to my blog.. Ok maybe not everyone...ok maybe its just Emily, but I figure its about time.. Well I just recently celebrated a birthday. It was a low key birthday but I really enjoyed it. On Monday Jessi, Hilda, Vanessa, Shanna, Michelle, Natalie and RB all took me out to dinner for my birthday to Happy Sumo, which I’m always down for sushi. That was also a lot of fun. Umm so I can’t mention Happy Sumo and not mention the awesome dragon themed birthday present I got from Jess and Hilda. Yes that is right I said Dragon themed.. See the pictures below.. They speak for themselves.. I even got a cape! Thank you Jess and Hilda!







Rachel and Chase got me a gift certificate to get my nails done ( which I thought was really sweet of them also) I also got a really cute red sweater and hat and matching red earrings from Shanna, Michelle, Vanessa, and Natalie, which were extremely cute. I demonstrated for Jess how she would have worn the sweater had she gotten it, you’ll have ask her how that is. So all in all I had a great birthday.

'Ello!

Ok so how do I introduce myself to the blogging world? Umm So I've been promising Jess that I would start this blog for like a month, ever since Jess and I had a sword fight at FHE down in the creek while everyone else was roasting hot dog and marshmallows up above with the "normal" people. It's not our fault no one else has a sense of adventure... No Paul I was not wearing a cape.. I bet you all want to know what happend.. Well lets just say this, I ended up soaked from my waist down except it was only the backside of me... Thats right I fell over backwards into the creek.. I still think Jess tripped me when I wasn't looking, though.. She plays dirty.. SO here I am blogging world (you can thank Jess)
