Happy Meals

This will most likely be my last blog for the month. I'm going to be working for a lady in my ward for about a week watching her kids. I'm pretty sure I won't be able to post again but I just thought I would write one last time. I've been so busy working this month. I've been cutting hair as well. I love that! It's like being able to talk to someone and then get paid. Not only that but everytime I turn around someone wants me to do their hair. It's such a blessing and it's a great way to save money! I love always having cash in my pocket and in my bank account. At this rate I'll be paying for school in cash.

Today when I worked for the lady in my ward, she had me take her two youngest boys and their little friend to go get happy meals while she ran errands. The main reason was to get her youngest used to me haha and to have him associate me with having fun. That way when she leaves hopefully he will be ok with me watching him. It was a fun time I squeezed 3 car seats into my car (had to push a little bit to close the door but it worked). The boys all got hot wheels cars and played in the playland.

They were so cute and so well behaved. I love how the boy on the right has as many french fries in his little mouth as he could fit haha I was waiting to have him choke bleh that's just what I needed. When it was time to go I got some cookies and told them they could have them on the way home. The older boy could reach the window in my car and now I have cookie on the widown and handle haha and right when we got to the house he threw his car out the window lol wow good times. The other thing I'm pretty happy about right now is that my driving record no longer has a single ticket on it! Hurray I'm 3 years out, and I haven't been pulled over in over a year. I'm sure my parents appreiciate that as well. I guess that's all till October :)

Progress and Pride & Prejudice

I've got about a third of my Christmas throw done. Hurray! I ironed and cut up all the pieces last week, so that I could sew this week. It will be an awesome blanket but this is the first time I have had something besides just blocks to cut out and sew so the seems are just a leeeetle off. Haha oh well I'll get better I'm sure. It will have edging on the sides and I think I want to add another row to the bottom to make sure that it will cover toes with room to spare :) extra cozy. This Sunday and last I watched Pride and Prejudice while I worked. Can I just say WOW I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE that show! I have always been a hopeless romantic. I hadn't even seen it till August of this year. I was hanging out with some friends and one of the guys refrenced it and I was like "huh?".

I had heard about it seen parts (more like seconds) of the Mormon version but had never really seen it. I knew nothing about the storyline or anthing else. He then continued to tell me "You're not a 'real girl until you've seen Pride and Prejudice". So about a week later I went over to his house and watched it with his brother and him. Haha and in their words they made a "real women" out of me. Good good times. Between the language like "violent affections" and the suspense of all the couples I just die. If only things were that fun in real life. One of the best and worse parts is how Mr. Darcy and Ms. Bennett never kiss till the absolute end of the movie. It's so refreshing unlike current movies that are filled with full on everything from start to finish.

Not only that but it's so fun to talk about with other girls haha just one more chick flick to anlyze. Just as a side note to one of my friends I spoke to about this recently I paid extra attention to Mr. Darcy this last time and I'm going to agree with you he is FINE. I'm not a super fan of Colin Firth but in this movie I am! I'm usually more of a blue eyed blondish guy fan, but his brown eyes and hair are just fine the way they are.

Football

Brandon is playing football this year! I can't believe how tall he is. I'm still taller then the boy but only by 2 inches (if that). He's playing for Eagle Rock, the family all went to watch his game on Saturday morning at the Skyline field. He is new to the sport so the coaches don't usually play him until their first string is completely winded (irritating but I guess everyone has to do their time) but he does a great job at holding his opponents. He plays defensive line, and his team is completely undefeated so far this year. Me and the Family sitting in the lovely September sun. It was so BEAUTIFUL on Saturday perfect day for game watching.

Grandma Chris came to the game with Grandpa Jerry. Love this lady!

This is just Jordan and I making faces while we wait at half time. I can't lie the boys still drive me nuts sometimes but they are sooooo cool! Then later that evening while I fixed Grandma's hair I listened to the BYU game and they lost against Florida it was sad.

Ah Man

I have a couple "ah man" things to post to start with I think I'll be sad about the end of summer. Can anyone believe it's really over? I am so disappointed it's been so amazing this year. And aside from temperate days and cool walks there is very little to do in Fall. I'm not a fan of transitional seasons i.e.- fall and spring. I love summer and winter there's so much more to do.

My second "ah man" would have to be my inability to schedule my salon job into my other jobs. In order to take a prolonged assignment from one of my jobs I would have found myself without my salon job, because they would only give me 3 days off (I needed about 9). So for the time being I no longer work there (grrrr) my last day was Saturday. On the bright side my manager liked me so much that she said if I didn't reapply at the beginning of October she would be mad at me.

And the last "ah man" is college has started for just about all of my friends. Now I'm lonely while they all go off to school. I am getting more and more excited about school for me even if it's still several months away. Today I filled out most of my application and all I have left is to get my bishop's approval and seminary records. I am seriously so scared to go back to school! It was so crazy because my heart was racing while I filled out my application. Whew change is scary, you would think after everything that has happened this year I would be better at it, well I'm not.

Finally this is what I did on labor day after I worked all morning. Scooter ride! Ryan and Kyle came with me and we rode around my neighborhood till midnight. Man it was so cold but we still had good times.

He's either really excited or on drugs haha jk. 

Lovely Kyle
