Happy Friday!

So, I am so thrilled that it is finally Friday! It hasn't been a bad week or anything, but I always just LOVE the weekends (and who doesn't!). So, this weekend Kenneth and I are taking part in a "Death By Chocolate" Party - which basically means we get to eat a TON of chocolate desserts just before the Flash basketball game. We got tickets through our realtor (Peter Dill) who also is a friend of the family. P.S. - if you're looking to buy a house he is AWESOME! We highly recommend him.

So, the game is tonight, and tomorrow morning we are hopefully going to get some rockclimbing in at American Fork canyon before the rain comes. Then in the afternoon Kim (my brother's fiance) is having a family bridal shower in Lehi. The theme, I found out is camping - which may not work really well with the gift I got her before I found out the theme...hmm...oh well! She and my brother also sewed a quilt together and we're going to tie it at the bridal shower (could you guess we're from Utah??).

Last but not least, I am teaching in my Young Women's class on sunday. I am a little nervous because I've seen the lack of respect they have given the other teachers - there is no kind of discipline or expectation of respect...I don't think I'll stand for that though. Anyway, they are good girls, but just need some structure. I hope it goes well, and I hope I will be able to be a good example some how to them. Anyway, wish me luck and bring on the weekend!

Good Grief!

So, I was given grief yesterday by a certain person about never writing on my blog...so here you go!

Updates, updates:

Stephy - my best friend and sister-in-law is going into the MTC tomorrow to go on a mission for hte Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. She will be in Montreal, Canada for the next 18 months teaching others about the Gospel of Jesus Christ. I will miss her terribly, but am excited for her at the same time.

Kenneth and I are STILL working on our house. I never knew it would be so hard to sand a room! Our living room has been mudded, and we are in the process of sanding...and have been for like the past 3 weeks! We need to get this done so we can paint, and then so we can get our new couch in (which my sister Alisha is CONSTANTLY asking about!). Anyway, I am excited for Kenneth's spring break because he will be able to work on the house then while I am at work (am I bad for not wanting to help??). Yes, spring break is like 3 weeks away, but I can pretty much guarantee that it still won't be done by then. Oh construction!

Other than that, Kenneth and I are also preparing for a marathon! We are planning on running the St. George marathon that is in early October. The training is sometimes hard...but that is only because I am out of shape. Kenneth, on the other hand, can run like a 1/4 marathon after being sick for a week...goodness! Anyway, that's about all.

I HATE SNOW!

I hate the snow...it's cold, it's wet, and I'm always freezing! I love it as long as I am curled up in a blanket, with some hot chocolate and a good book...or just cuddling with Kenny. Other than that, I HATE SNOW! I'm glad we will have enough water "so that we can shower in the summer" as my future sister-in-law Kim reminded me, but I think we've had enough! STOP THE SNOW!
