In CO with TK

High-Spending a whole week with my TK


Low-The smell in the room

Breakaway

I was so lucky to attend a H.S. that allowed a Christian Club to meet, talk and pray on our campus. The year this was taken it was a very rainy day. While most of us have on jeans, sweatpants and sweatshirts TK has on a very cute outfit and looks fab.

after these messages

I'll be right back. This blog is not done and gone, it has been in a slumber state. But in less than a week when I am back at school this blog will be awakened once more. Sorry for the delay those of you who have been checking up on me.


i walked on the treadmill at the hotel for a mile and then headed outside since it was such a nice day out and walked a mile to and from a shopping center. so that is three miles total. go me.

boo

i hate that i only get to see my bestests once a year. i am glad it does happen once a year though. i just dont like that every day feels like sunday night and the dread of monday and real life is waiting just around the corner.

Places and People

High-Nick visiting, Hanging at the Indian Casino with my mom for two days


Low-Being back from vacation

17 hours

In 1999 Curly and I drove to Colorado to pick up TK and help bring her stuff back to Cali. This photo cracks me up. That is Mr. Bear in my lap, Paul won him for me out of a claw machine. I am pretty sure that is one of Paul's shirts I am wearing. I believe this was the first time we were going to be apart for more than 2 days. The most important part is my mouth, I am betting I sang the entire way to CO. To this day I always sing in the car. The only time I don't is when I am concerned about something or overthinking something, then I tend to stare out the window

not soon enough

i am waiting in anticipation for my visit to CO. in fact i am somewhat giddy.

Vacation

High- 6th wedding anniversary

Low-Humidity

6 yrs. and still on the honeymoon

Wedding day flashback. I am glad we did not focus on the little things like flowers, and colors, and all the other million details that you deal with in planning a wedding. Instead with Dave Fabarez' guidance we were much more concerned with the marriage. A wedding lasts a day, a marriage lasts a lifetime.

birthday

this is the 1st year that someone important to me did not call and wish me a happy birthday on Aug. 9th it makes me sad.

Moving On

High-My 27th birthday

Low-Aunt Robin passing away

Camp Tecuya

I miss Rynell and Sarah tons. We went to so many camps together during Elementary and Junior High School. Some of our favorites were the horseback riding ones. Even with my cast on they still let me ride. I can only imagine how gross my arm was when they took that thing off.

down

i am missing someone terribly right now.

Hospital Wedding

High-My cousin got hitched



Low-My mom ending up back in the hospital

:(

when i am wearing a short sleeve shirt i don't like it when people touch my elbows. it makes me feel self-conscious.

UN-fair

High - Going to the OC fair with our families. I am so blessed that Paul and I get along with each others families and that they get along with each other. I know so many married couples who cant stand their in-laws and I am just so happy that everyone in our families get along. It makes me glad to not have that worry in my life.

Low - Getting word that Robin has slipped into a coma. We are hoping she will come out of it soon. Thank you all for your prayers during this time.

I want to go HERE

During many summers the VGC youth would go to Raging Waters, Wild Rivers or Palm Springs to a water park. We tried not to lose each other in the "lazy river" by linking arms and rafts. Some of the people in the photo Aurora, Erin, Liz, JJ, Steve. I haven't been to a water park since H.S. and I really want to go back.

I said "Reading is Good..."

I haven't read any of the Harry Potter books.

Weekend

High - My aunt started taking her feedings again. Attending Terry Sloans funeral

Low - My car breaking down and costing us a few hundred bucks to fix it. Attending Terry Sloans funeral

Snowday like today

For your viewing pleasure on this H-O-T day.

Once upon a time at the rec. center they had a snow machine brought in and all the kids got to put on their "snow gear" and have a good ol' time sledding down the hill. Andrew Robinson, Justin Weilend and I took turns being in the front of my sled. I think my face says it all in the first photo. :)

movie

I want to see the Bratz movie.

I feel that I should be ashamed of this fact.

BGG's Robin

High - Having almost 4 days in Vegas with my girls and getting to hang out with Kel although it wasnt near long enough!

Low - Getting word that Robin is not doing well, we head up there tomorrow.

Speaking of...

For some insane reason Paul and I drove out to Vegas for our second wedding anniv. (that would be the middle of August) When we reached Baker it was 112 degrees. I am not sure what time of day this was taken at. But I know that it wasn't the hottest part because we avoid that time of day like the plague.

Sadly this is one of two photos we have from that trip as our computer crashed at took our photographic memories with it :(

Confused

I love summer with vacation, swimming and long days but I would rather live in the cold. I am not a fan when the temps get over 100*. So while my mind loves summer my body likes winter, I wish they would get it together.

Get Around

High- Going to the Del Mar Fair, Observatory and Kwik-E-Mart all in one week.

Low - Having Jury Duty
