The BIG Cut!!!!!!!

Two blogs in one day? Oh man I think I might be over doing myself. But this is so blog worthy. Yesterday I get a text from my Uncle Shon asking me if I was cutting hair today. I said yes and asked why. He said he was ready for the big cut. Oh man I was so excited! So he came in today and brought a picture of himself from 10 years ago and said make me look like this again! haha. For some reason it is like Christmas when a hair dresser gets to cut off a ton of hair. It is to me at least. I love it! So thank you Shon for making my day and letting me blog about you. haha. And I think your haircut turned out very nice!

Before..This is the best picture I have..sorry.And After!!!! Doesn't even look like the same person!

All the hair..this picture doesn't even do justice of how much there really was!

Road Trip!!

The Crazy Arabian Castle
Chauntelle and the llama


Me and the llamas


What the random?


We could not figure out what the heck this was


Chauntelle's "poof" In white. ha



At this point we were wondering why we decided
to road trip north?

Yep..still wondering


If any of you know me, we all know that I have a weird
obsesion with coats..this picture doens't even do justice
of the backseat of the car. No they are not all mine..but
most of them were.



This past weekend (Valentine's Weekend) Me and my friend Chauntelle decided to take a road trip to northern Utah. Since it was single awareness weekend, we thought it would be a prefect time to go shopping and do fun girly things. We left Friday morning and stopped in Payson, where we stayed. (thank you aunt Kim for the bed :) Then we decided to start shopping so we headed up to Provo. Keep in mind we both had no idea where we were going so we just winged it the whole trip,which made it way more entertaining, and we found our way eventually. Then Friday night we had hot dates. Chauntelle was being set up with my cousin Corbin and I was being set up with his friend Braden. It was sooo fun! And not to mention Braden is probably the nicest guy I have ever met! Anyway Saturday rolls around and it seems like whenever we get together we always want to do so much but have so little time. So we have to make lists. ha. We were wanting to go to Salt Lake but the weather was bad so we didn't dare drive that far. So we went to this shopping place in Provo where this restaurant was that Chauntelle wanted to go to. When we got there, it was a 3 hour wait. Are you kidding me, 3 hours for food? No way jose. There was a movie theatre in the same shopping place so we decided to go to the movie to kill some time. We went and saw He's Just Not That Into You. Good movie! When we got out of the movie it was a blizzard! And we still had to walk all the way back to the car. We were covered in snow! It was ridiculous! Oh and we stopped at the restaurant after the movie and it was still another hour, so we bailed. We had been talking about getting pedicures so we were determined to find a place. In Vegas there is a nail place on every corner it seems like so we thought for sure we would find one easily. Not so much, we found one but it was too long of a wait so we decided to move on. We took a little detour on the way back to Payson in hopes of finding a nail place and oh boy..we were going through these little towns and next thing we know we see this castle thing. It looks like it came straight out of the movie Aladdin. We could not figure this thing out. We had to turn around and look at it again. It was so weird...and there were llamas in the front of it. What the random? Anyway..long story short we finally found a pedicure place and it was amazing. What's not to love about getting your feet rubbed while you relax? Then we headed home Sunday morning. I would say it was a good way to spend the single awareness weekend! :)

My new found hobby

So call me a Grandma but my new hobby is.....knitting! haha. One day I went into the salon and my boss was wearing a way cute scarf and she said she made so..so I was like well freak I want to make one. She said she learned from a book..but I can't read something and comprehend it very good so I just made her teach me. haha. I had to restart the stupid think like 47572 times! I almost quit but I really wanted a scarf so I didn't. And it makes the days go by faster when I'm at the salon.ha. Not to mention there are a ton of mistakes in it but that's ok..I like to think that makes it original. Anyway..I finally finished it today and I'm so proud of it. I was modeling it all afternoon in the salon. hah.

I hate taking pictures of myself..but I had to model it for everyone to see.

The finished product!

Salon Christmas Party

Last Saturday night, yeah sorry I'm a little behind, I went to Ninja for the salon Christmas party. It was so fun! I'm pretty sure I lucked out because I work with some of the funniest people and we all seem to get along so well. Anyway..dinner was so yummy! You can never go wrong with Filet.mmm!
I think someone forgot to tell me that we were supposed to wear black...
Anyways not much else has been going on..except for the fact that I feel like I live in freaking Antarctica or something! It has been so cold and snowy. Shoveling my driveway is getting real old FAST! For those of you that don't know I got another job at a preschool being a teachers aide. I love it! Little kids are so entertaining...and also very whiny all at the same time. But it's fun, I'm an aide for Stephanie and I think I lucked out on that too..she is so nice and fun to work with. Well so is everyone at the school.

another weekend in salt lake...

So this last weekend I went to Salt Lake AGAIN! I never go there and now I go 2 weekends in a row..way too much time in a car is all I have to say. This time I went cause one of my good friends from hair school got married and she was having a luncheon thing..so me and my mom (thank you very much by the way for going with me) headed up Thursday morning and went straight to the luncheon. Then we wanted to go shopping of course but we didn't want to wander around in our heels and dresses but we didn't want to drive all the way to Brandon and Janna's house to change so what do you think our bright idea was..yes that's right, change in the car. It was probably one of the funniest things ever. Anyway we did some shopping and that night went to Temple Square to see the lights. It was actually kind of disappointing, I mean don't get me wrong it was pretty but not what I remember it looking like. Oh well it was fun. That night we stayed at Brandon and Janna's house (by the way thanks for letting us stay, you make us feel very welcome!) and Friday we did some more shopping. We went to Ikea and holy crap...if you think Tai Pan is huge then you haven't seen nothin! That place is ridiculous, when you walk in the doors and there is a locker for your purse and what not, a day care, a map of the store, and a food court you know you're in trouble. We actually didn't stay there very long, my mom was getting overwhelmed. But I did purchase a rubber spatula for 63 cents. What a deal! Then Friday night we got to go to another Jazz game..yep that's right another one..that's like 3 within a week. It was so fun! Me, my mom, my Aunt Kim, and Aunt Janna went. We had some pretty good food and it was fun to have a girls night out! Then Saturday morning me and my mom headed back to Cedar. OH and on the way home we stopped in Nephi cause it seems like everyone on my family talks about "sticky chicken" and I have never had it before. So we stopped and got some and it is amazing! and of course I had to get a slurpee to go with it!!!


Girls night at the Jazz game


Me and Mamacita at Temple Square

mmm..chicken and slurpee!!

Thanksgiving and the weekend

So this Thanksgiving I spent it at my grandparents in New Harmony. It was sooo good! We spent a couple hours down there eating, taking family pics, and Lindsey posed as George from Sienfeld on the bear rug. It was so funny. The bear rug freaks us out for some reason so it was funny to see her actually lay on it. Then we were going up to Salt Lake on Friday and going to a Jazz game, at least that's what I thought the plan was. I was getting all packed and my parents got home from shopping, yeah the day after Thanksgiving they were one of the crazy ones out shopping..who does that? Anyway, they got home and my mom was like hurry and get ready we got tickets for tonight and we get to be benchwarmers! I was sooo excited!! So we all hurried and got in the truck and went on our way. Of course we had to stop in Fillmore and get potato logs..its tradition and they are so dang good! We finally made it up there and went to the game. I was so excited that I was going to get to meet Deron Williams! And at the same time I thought I was going to pee my pants I was so nervous. We got out on the court and sat on the Jazz bench, we watched the players warm up and then they came over to the bench to sign our stuff and take pics with us. It was so much fun! But guess what.....No Deron! I thought I was getting jipped! But oh well I guess, there was nothing I could do about it. then we went to our seats and watched the game, and they won! On Saturday all the guys went to Cabela's and us girls went out to do a little shopping. While we were out Janna got a call that Brandon has more benchwarmer passes.So...Kim and her family, Trisha and Quinn, and me and my dad were going to be benchwarmers for Saturday nights game. I was so excited cause I had another chance to meet Deron. But guess what..it didn't happen. But it was defiantly fun to be down there again. For that game we all watched it in a suite...which was amazing! It was such a good weekend !





Thanksgiving morning..Me and My dad palying some Mario

Blah

Ok ok people..get your panties out of a bunch. Sorry my life isn't very exciting latley and have nothing to blog about. But I decided I guess it's about that time. About 3 weeks ago I finally started working at a salon. To be honest I was dreading it, but it hasn't turned out too bad.Luckily I love the people I work with. It's slow most of the time and sitting there all day is starting to get real old but what do ya do I guess..gotta start somewhere.

I like to think I'm official with me very own business cards.

So other then starting work nothing has really been going on in good ole Cedar Ciry. No snow yet thank the good man above. Sorry this isn't very interesting..maybe I'll just start making up stories to write on here.
