The Lambs in Springtime

A few days ago Timmy & I had made an elaborate plan to swim and cook out, and sun tan and do anything we could out side. When we woke up yesterday at around 9:30 ish and it was obvious that there would be no fun in the sun,(because you couldn't see the sun) rain clouds were looming and the day was already ruined before it had even began.

Fortunately I devised an alternative, more fun, plan.

So off we went! We went to Benton to visit Tim's brother Heath and his wife Melissa and their adorable munchkins Kalyn and Keali! We had so much fun! Melissa made us Awesome Blossoms and Baked Potatoes for dinner and we played hide and go seek. We snuggled and talked and took pictures, and we went to get ice cream at Mc Donald's while the littles played on the Mc-y D's playground.

The "A" word......and by the "A" word I mean Aliens.

Today was strange. This morning at work 2 odd things happened: 1.) My co-worker Angela had a customer, he was in the store for ever, so it turned out he wanted a watch that she was going to have to order, so he said he'd call her back. About an hour or so later he called back and I answered the phone. He said something I couldn't understand, started laughing and asked to speak with Angela. I handed Angela the phone and she told me that he had asked me if I was the cute one and continued to ask her questions about me like, "Is she married?" = So that was odd cause I can't remember the last time I got hit on. 2.) We sent back a whole lot of Jewelry today and in the return to vendor supplies there was a huge role of bubble wrap, this thing was probably as big around as a tire on a semi truck & probably about 3 ft wide. So I got to play with bubble wrap all day long since we used as little of it on packing as possible. After we were done packing up jewelry we wrapped my boss's chair and desk, (not my idea, but I wish I could take credit for it. It was actually compliments of my friend Sarabeth) with about 4 layers of bubble wrap and duck tape. So I guess work was just easy and a little dull, nobody wants to buy jewelry since gas is so high so my work experiences as of late have been more and more hum drum since we have to entertain ourselves.

After work not alot happened, Tim and I were supposed to go see Indiana Jones with Clabe and Hilary,but Tim fell asleep and Clabe had to deal with some family stuff, so Hilary and I went. I feel terrible because about 20 minutes into the film I realize the plot is all about Aliens. Now I haven't know Hilary for very long, but I do know that she has a terrible fear of Aliens. So I'm sitting there wondering what she's gonna do. So the second I see the first Alien I naturally start making fun of how rubbery and ridiculous it looks and laughing hysterically and she's barley peeking through her fingers at it. I felt bad but the CGI was just so bad, it was hard to take the movie seriously; the actors and the people and the sets were great but the CGI was so incredibly bad. 3 words: Monkeys, Ants, & Aliens......

Testing 1-2-3

I have another picture on my blog. I am feeling terribly accomplished today and for my next act of amazing-ness I will add a half way decent picture of myself that is a little more recent than Christmas 2006......

Eureka!!!!

Yay! I have a picture on my blog!!!

OK I was thinking that I was going to start getting good at this whole daily blog posting thing but obviously not.
Alot has gone on since the 7th.
1.) I did another day on the art bus & again the kindergartners were unquestionably the best of all the kids. 2.) my dad was admitted to the hospital cause he thought he was having a heart attack, he didn't, but they still don't know what's wrong with him. 3.) I decided that I am not taking summer classes. 4.) We went to visit my parents on mother's day and Juno pooped behind my dad's chair,which personally I thought was pretty funny. 5.) Tim and I found a couple to go on double dates with (their names are Claiborne& Hilary) and we went to see Speed Racer together. 6.) We bought new bedding and decided to paint the walls in our room green, but I don't know when we'll get around to that. 7.) I "mowed" the lawn, got the mower stuck in a mud puddle, got stung by a bee, and fell in my ditch while stumbling down to Tim's parents so that his momma could fix my bee sting. This all happened in a span of 5 or so minutes. Honestly I'm not very good at mowing the lawn but I had alot of fun trying. 8.) Tim and I laid out in the backyard and I thought I covered him up in sunscreen (SPF 30) But apparently I missed some spots he looked like he had a raccoon mask and I missed half of a leg and his sides. Those parts were RED the rest didn't even tan. SPF 30 works but only if you put it on, all over. After I unintentionally burnt Tim we played in the kiddie pool with baby Luke and Klarice and while running and screaming and trying to splash Tim, I accidentally punched him in the eye. It wasn't a great day for poor Timmy.

"The Artmobile"

Today I did tours for the "Artmobile", it's a traveling art gallery. In the art gallery there are 23 pieces of art,which myself & my friend James (another Art Ed major at ASTATE)explained to 2 groups of forth graders, 2 groups of third graders, a group of second graders, a group of kindergartners, a group of fifth graders and a group of sixth graders. The kids were all alot of fun except for the sixth graders, they were rotten. I think the kindergartners were my favorites there was one little girl who came up & held my hand while we walked through the tour, a little boy who asked we if I made all they art, & a different little girl who told me I was pretty. They were fun.

Another neat thing about the tour was that it was at my elementary school. It was funny to be back there all the halls were the same colors,(but they looked smaller-I guess that could be attributed to the fact that I have probably grown two or so feet since I was last in the building) and I actually went into the room where I had kindergarten. The same nurse, and the same librarian still work there. And coincidentally the teacher of the second group that toured was actually my forth grade teacher, she didn't remember me.

After all the tours and school had let out, Tim and I got groceries. On our way home Mom called and she, Emily, & Micah said they wanted to come play with my puppies and that they would be in the backyard waiting for us when we got home. They were. Emily and Micah both got glasses a couple of days ago, today was the first day that I got to see them, they both look very beautiful, but of course I told them that the looked like dorks, I've been around Tim far to long....Emily had to go to church so me,Tim, Micah and mom all went to Petco, I like to look at the fish. Micah and I saw three albino snakes it was very unusual.

April: Oh yeah, I also forgot to mention that two Thursdays ago I found out that I have a marble sized cyst on my left lady lump... Dr. said it is benign so I'm not that worried about it.
