Fall Happy

Oh, I woke up this morning and went right through my house opening every door and window! It was feeling so fall-ish outside that I couldn't stand it! I LOVE the fall! Everything about it! I love jackets and sweaters. I love the brisk fresh air in the morning. I really love driving up my favorite canyon and looking at the changing leaves. (My parents used to call that riding in a bowl of trix.) I love the fall holidays and the yummy smells those bring to mind. Candy corn and turkey... o mouth watering. I love wearing jeans and not sweating. I love the delicious colors of fall. It makes me want to scrapbook my world! p.s. I am totally obsessed with fall scrapbook paper as well!! Sweeet! So here's to fall and how it makes me so happy! May you all love the season as much as I do!

Shout out to my sista at PCS

To the lovely young lady that made my day...
At my place of employment we see a lot of boys and girls from a nearby school. This is a live-in facility that helps troubled youth. So one of my first patients of the day from PCS was telling me about a book she was reading. She said it was such a good book and she was excited to find it. She began to tell me about how everything they offer to read at the school is either a self help book or something about God. So I will loosely quote her,
"Everything has God in it! I pick up the first book.. God, God, God. So I toss it and pick up the next one... God, God, God... Toss it, don't get me wrong, I own a bible...That's where I read about God... Next book... God, God, Wait here's a book...It's not a self help and I can see that it's not about God! THANK GOD!"
I almost died laughing! I don't think she even meant to say it in the end, but it was so darn funny! May have been one of those moments you need to be there for, but nonetheless, Thanks to F.M. for making my day!

Could it be?

I looked out in my backyard tonight and low and behold there were several 6th grade boys sitting in my hot tub. What the? When did these little boys hit an age where this would be cool? OK ...let me toot my own horn now.... I am the cool mom who let them into my hot tub, fed them an amazing amount of pizza and root beer and put in my earplugs when the video game energy came out. My gosh! I remember being in the 6th grade!!! I was so happy to see Koy having a good time with his friends, but this is my baby!!! Wow! However, now I am feeling the need to go to bed. An obvious sign of my real age. Here's to Oh so cool back to school parties! (And the tired moms that throw them.)

Books, Books, Books

Ok, So I will not tell a lie. I never really read a full book until about 10 years ago. No joke. Now I cannot pull myself out of a good book! I am crazy about reading! I love how it can take me away for a while. I love sensing things that I am reading. I really am a nut when it comes to picturing characters. I LOVE to read! So, if any of you have any fantastic reads, please let me know. I am always on the look out for something great! OHHHH! The mail just came with my amazon box. You know what this means... the latest read is finally here! The Uglies.

Thoughts for Tyler

Hey friends, just wanted to put a shout out to you all about Koy's good friend Tyler. Tyler was severely burned Monday night while playing with friends at the park. He will be in the hospital for some time as he has pretty severe burns to his face and body. Koy is heartbroken over it. He was looking forward to being in Ty's class again this year and he has been a good playmate for Koy. We would just ask our loved ones to be thinking and praying for Tyler and his family. There has also been a fund set up for him at any Far West bank if anyone would like to donate to a very good cause. Thinking of you Tyler.

Temporary Insanity

So there you have it! Sterling and I are crazy! We are soooo blaming this on Orem High School and their little renovation idea. There are no places to park and this was Cade's only option! Be still my heart. Pray for us and I will check in with our insurance company.

Warning! May be unsuitable for young viewers!

So I won't lie.... This is exactly how I feel this week! Everything about this week has seemed a little strained for me! So to those of you poor folks who have to put up with me on a daily basis... I am so sorry. I have been a great big cup of shut the hell up and I apologize! Please forgive me!
