Postum!!

Okay guys, I had to give up my LOVE for coffee about 2 years ago for a few reasons but mainly to follow the suggestions of the Word of Wisdom. I have had cravings almost every morning for a big cup of coffee with Irish Creme creamer! But I had to ignore them!!! NOT ANYMORE!!! No I'm not going against the church or being rebelious, I simply found Postum! I am in love! Bryan told me that there was a substitute for coffee and I was shocked! I had no idea that they even made such a thing! It is natural, has no toxins, is caffeine free, and tastes exactly like coffee!! I am so pumped! Thank you Postum!

Adjustment......

It's been about a month and a half since I've been home. I am finding that it really is a big adjustment. I like it, don't get me wrong, but it feels very weird not having a set plan everyday and not really having anywhere to go. I do have a lot more time to go and hang out with my family which I have really neglected over the past year and spend time with Bryan which, sorry to say, has also probably been neglected. I look back at how much I was working and how exhausted I always was when I got home and I feel bad. I was always falling asleep early and I wanted nothing more than to just relax on Saturdays that I never wanted to go anywhere. My job wasn't that strenuous but my body gets tired pretty fast and the stress of my job just took it's toll. This being "retired" business is actually working out for me! I will have to definitely look for another job when we move but I think I am just going to go back into doing hair and for maybe only part time!! That way I won't be stressed and I can still spend more time with Bryan! I think this adjustment is a good one!

Turkey Day!!!

I hope every one had a wonderful Thanksgiving!! I got to go over to my uncle's house which is where we have it every year. It was fun but why we try to cram our whole extended family into a tiny house I will never know!! I think my mom might take over next year since our family is slowly growing! We had all the good fixin's! The turkey, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce...... mmmm!

I went shopping with my mom today! I finished my shopping for my nieces and mostly for my nephew! I wasn't going to go shopping at all because I hate crowds but I went to visit my mom and she talked me into it! There really were some great deals!

On another note, my friend Heather was visiting for the holiday! I got to hang out with her 2 of the days! And I get to take her to the airport in the morning at 4:30!! Let me tell you how excited I am!!! Her plane leaves at 6:30...... she's crazy! But I am very glad that I got to hang out with her as much as I did!

Blues....

Well my friend Heather is officially gone :( She moved to Colorado. The sad thing is that I thought that she was leaving of the 7th of November and I was planning on going to hang out with her on the 6th but when I called her she had already left!!! She left the 4th!!! I was so bummed!! I was a little upset that she didn't call me to tell me she was leaving earlier but I got over it! Now I just feel bad that I didn't get to see her before she left. But luckily she will be coming to visit the 20th - the 24th so I'm stoked!

A Few Thoughts!

Bryan wanted me to show the progress of his Toyota!! He's got it lifted and running well. He next will be changing out the gears to make it a better rock crawler! And I must say that I was very proud of myself... I helped Bryan put in the carpet on the interior!! He is doing such a great job! I am very proud of him!!

Bryan and I got called to be in Primary at church a couple weeks ago! We teach the Sunbeams (3-4 years old) They are so cute!! We have 5 girls and only one boy! They are so full of life and really are just a joy to around! I am so thankful that we were blessed with such an awesome group!!!

Update..... Bryan is feeling better! Not 100% but still a lot better than what he was!! Thank you very much for your thoughts!!!!

Babies, Babies, Babies

Well it seems like babies are coming out of the woodworks!! Here are the pictures of my sister's baby, Montana Taylor!!! She was born on October 23rd weighing in at 6 lbs 14 oz and 21 inches long!!
And she came into the world with a mohawk!!! Should that be a warning?!?!?!

Sicky :(

My poor husband... He has been sick since Sunday afternoon :( We had to take him to urgent care on Monday to get him some meds. After the doctor took a half way look at his throat he decided Bryan had strep throat!!! His uvula (the dangly thing in the back of his throat) is 3 times the size it usually is and he has white spots all over. I feel so bad because there isn't much that I can do for him! He sleeps almost all day and the best that I can do is try to keep him comfortable. I hope this goes away soon! I hate seeing him sick.

Long Month!!

Well, it has definitely been a while since I have blogged!! It has been one crazy month!! Bryan and I have decided to move and be completely focused on school! We've had some career setbacks....... long story! And my sister had her baby!!!! I'll post the pictures soon!! Her name is Montana Taylor and she weighed 6 lbs 14 oz. and was 21 inches long! She is absolutely beautiful!! Also, my best friend is moving next week to Colorado :( Even though I don't see her very often I still like knowing that she is there when I need her. It might take me 45 minutes to drive to her house but she is there. And now she is moving to Colorado and I will see her even less. I'm really sad about the whole thing. But what can you do..........
