Hi Kim

I hope work is slow and you come across me in your blog stalking.  Love you!!  Now go glitter some toes.



P.s.  My sister now sells glitter and polish that you can do at home.  Visit her at South Towne mall just outside of Forever 21. 

What my WHISTLE can do

Talk with the birds
Give a warning when I'm coming around a sharp corner on my bike
Let the skiers/wakeboarders behind the boat know that we're turning around
Call out for help when I'm in a case of emergency
Do cat calls
Impress the fellas
Cheer at games without destroying my voice
Let my roommates know that I am coming home
Whistle along to music
Play name that tune
Get someone's attention
It's great when I'm too lazy to get out of bed and need something
Be a referee for a game of any sort
Be located anywhere, whether lost in a store or party
Cheer out during Zumba class without completely losing my breath
to name a few....

Not to mention that this is all hands free

Probably the most useful tool I have.....or have ever learned

Thanks Mar!

What does a girl need.....

to run a triathlon? 

Oh and this isn't everything.
There's still the bike....the helmet.....everything you need in order to change a flat tire (oh please don't happen to me)....tissues for my runny nose (and what not).....Sport Legs.....warm clothes in case the weather decides to be bad......sport drinks......
guts.....stamina.....craziness.....endurance.....determination......
excitement.....friends just as crazy to do it with you.....adrenaline (but not too much. i learned my lesson on that in St. George)......self discipline.....and..... 

a whole lot of support!!
Thanks Lacy for the good luck basket.  You seriously provided me with many of the essentials.  And my family....here we come Boise.

I'm so excited!!!  Wish me luck!

How Old Am I?

WRONG.

I have the body of a 17 year old.
And the brain of an 80 year old.

I lost my car in the parking lot today.

Another reason to hate Walmart.

IN CASE YOU MISSED IT

Wow!  It's amazing how I don't even notice the boxes anymore.  
Truly an idea of a genius.
I sure hope that nothing valuable is EVER being delivered. 

In my opinion....I think there's a better chance of me being oblivious to two boxes sitting outside an apartment door rather than  A FLOATING door mat.

Wow....delivery man.....I'm really impressed.

What a great way to hide the package.

Oh wait....that IS my name.

Ever been to Sammy's?check it out here
They make the most amazing shakes where they throw in a whole piece of pie.  They're amazing.
It's a way fun place to go and grab a burger/sandwich, sweet potato fries (with carmel sauce for dipping. if you haven't tried it yet, you should), and one of these delicious shakes.

My friend, Michael C. Hanks text me today saying if your name was "JENNIFER" you got a FREE shake at Sammy's today.

5 minutes later...we were there.

Best day of my life!

What I'm most upset about is that I can't get the stupid song

"On the Wings of Love"

out of my head.

When you know.....you know

You know it's LATE when....

        -you put the cereal box away in the FRIDGE

You know you're finally a WOMAN when....

        -you crave CHOCOLATE every single day and cry over anything

You know you are in LOVE with a food when....

        -you ask the server to box up SOMEONE ELSE'S leftovers for you to take home

You know you're STRESSED when....

        -you look like Rudolf with 3 eyes and have 50 KNOTS in your back

You know you're PRETTY good looking when....

        -a 4th grade GIRL says, "see ya hottie," and "good-bye gorgeous" 

You know you're getting OLD when....

        -you can drive for over 20 minutes before even realizing that you NEVER turned the radio on

You know you're PROCRASTINATING when....

        -you know what everyone is thinking or doing at the moment.  thank you FACEBOOK. and you have a recently updated blog

You know you're looking forward to RETIREMENT when....

        -you can sit at a restaurant for over 3 hours talking and PLAYING CARDS with friends

You know you've lived in Provo for almost 6 YEARS when....

        -you catch yourself singing HYMNS as you walk up the stairs to your apartment

You know you need to start eating more HEALTHY when....

        -you realize that you honestly haven't eaten a single vegetable in over 2WEEKS

You know you're not that SPECIAL or unique looking when....

        -you're told every day that you either LOOK FAMILIAR or like someone they know

You know your life is SO blessed when....

        -you just STOP and think for a minute


     

Laws of the Universe

 

 The Laws of the Universe are as follows:

#1  Always let a machine walk for you.

#2  If you lay by someone long enough, you Will make-out with them.

#3  If you sit in front of a plate of food long enough, you will eat it all.

These are the type of conversations you have when you go out to dinner with Drew.  

This is the same Drew that took me out 6 years ago and when he picked me up and we were wearing the exact same outfit, without even a hesitation he said, "go change."  (with both of us having blonde hair...it looked like we had just returned from family pictures).

The same Drew that when he dropped me off that same night and my carbon monoxide detector was going off he said, "oh...you'll be fine."  (He text me in the morning to make sure I had survived through the night....how sweet of him).

AND Last night, Drew even asked if we were listening to Radio Disney when Owl City came on the radio.  haha

Thanks for teaching me about life and the Universe Drew!

Color Me a Party

Originally named Color Coming Out....it was changed to Color Me a Party after several complaints of it sounding too much like a "coming out of the closet" party.  I didn't blame them.  It was a rainbow themed party and our invite did have this picture with it.

anywho...we had so much fun!  Everyone was encouraged to wear a single color from head to toe....or just wear lots of colors.  Whatever really.  We listened to music with colors in the the words,

a wall covered with white paper for people to color on

streamers covered the ceiling

all of the candy was separated by color

and we had a color wall for everyone to get their picture in front of

we took a million pictures of everyone but here are just some

It's going to be a good year!

Has something SO FUNNY ever happened that you still giggle about it hours later?? True story.

Saturday......around noon

Kim and I acting like it is a Saturday....in bed watching the 3rd Harry Potter as part of our Harry Potter movie marathon

Trent comes walking in

We ask...."WHERE ARE YOU GOING?"

Trent says, as if we're stupid or something, "CHURCH."

HE TOTALLY THOUGHT IS WAS SUNDAY!  I couldn't stop laughing

Oh....bless his heart! 

he had already started his fast AND was having a good hair day
