Merry Christmas...

I hope you all had yourself a wonderful Christmas with your families. Tyler and I had a great holiday. On Christmas Eve, we went to Tyler's friends house and played Mexican Train (yes I won). We stayed at Tyler's parents that night, and when we got back from playing games, we decided that we would open presents then, rather than waiting until morning.



The following morning we waited for all of Tyler's family to come over and we cooked breakfast together. It was fun, but I never realized how big my family is until I started doing stuff with others' families more often. Both families are still great though. After breakfast we opened presents with everyone and the family got a Wii, which was a blast. Mariokart is the best (yes, I won that one too).



Oh, I forgot to tell you what I go for Christmas. Nope, no ring like everyone keeps asking, but I did get an awesome pair of rollerblades, some really cute clothes, and some snow pants. Tyler did a great job.

As for real life, things are good. I am working lots and Tyler has been doing the same while we are both out of school. Next semester Tyler will graduate with his associates in science (I am so proud of him) and I am changing my degree track. I have been accepted into dietetics school start January 2011. Crazy, but exciting and I cannot wait. Next semester I just have to take a few business classes and then I am done until the program starts in 2011. Exciting!! I will be graduating in spring of 2012...finally.

That's about it for now. I hope you all have a wonderful New Year.

A Whole Lot of Not Much

You would think with how busy I am, I would have so much to blog about, but that is not so. Fall semester ends on Monday...Thankfully. I don't know what the plan is for next semester, but I now I am going to school. My new position (Iguess that's what I call it) at work is going great. It is slow, but ideas are coming and things are turning out great.
Some things we have done lately....
Tyler and I went to the BYU/Utah game. I have to say, it was a sad game, but the worst part, is the bet that I lost. Tyler is a die hard BYU fan, and for some reason, I am not quite sure of, I have always gone for the U. Well, being the cute couple we are, we can't have a rivalry between us, so I bet whoever won the game, we would have to convert to being a fan of that team...FOREVER. As most of you know, I lost the bet. It is a sad thing, but a bet is a bet...and I don't want Tyler to lose a bet one day and me not win because I didn't live up to my word. Overall, the game was fun, and we looked adorable!



We got a Christmas tree. It was very dull and boring, but thanks to Costco and their amazing ornaments, it turned out great. Probably closest to the best Christmas tree ever.



Well, I don't have much else to talk about, I am sure the holidays will bring some stories.

My Personal Cheerleader

So, we all know I am dating the most cute and sweet guy I know. Well, I decided he is my own personal cheerleader. There recently was a brand new position starting on my team for management. Of course underestimating myself I talked myself out of applying and decide to not apply because of the fear of rejection. Well, after a few talks with my encouraging boy, I decided to apply and he helped me as much as he could. He is amazing. Well, it resulted in me getting a position as a tech on the support role team, which means I work directly with management. This is a brand new position and I have to organize and implement the whole thing. It is going to be a lot of work, but a great experience. I couldn't have done it without my sweetheart. It is so amazing to have someone around that not only makes you more happy, but also pushes you to be a better person. I am a lucky girl!!

Me...into sports?

For those of you who didn't know, I am dating the most wonderful, adorable, sweetest, kind handy-man man in the world. I would have to say, I really love him!! So, you know how we all learn things about ourselves as we develop relationships with others? I have really learned something about me. I love watching sports. Tyler is a sports fanatic!! He loves BYU football (if they can have a decent season) Chicago Cubs and Boston Red Sox. Along with loving the Red Sox comes the most deepest hate for New York Yankees, and it has been so fun to get involved in. Growing up my family was never big into sports. My brothers both played little league baseball, and I always tagged along with mom to the games. Once high school hit though, the boys were all about singing and dancing, and I never learned much more about sports. Well Tyler is a wonderful teacher and I have to say I have caught on pretty quickly. I have really enjoyed football surpisingly and love hanging out with the guys as their teams rival eachother. I never thought I would be a sports fan, but when it all comes down to it, it's great. Now as for the world series...Go Phillies! Oh...and Cliff Lee, I am so completely impressed with your mad skills in game 1.

Sisters

Sariah's birthday was last week so it was good to spend some extra time with her. I am so busy with working and school and she with working her multiple jobs and then you add both of our boys to the equation and we really don't see each other too often. So, we went to red mango for her birthday treat and it was delicious. The first time I went there, I wasn't the biggest fan, but it was nothing compared to her birthday. That stuff is delicious. Carrie came along and we had a lot of fun. We sat around the fire like we owned the place, and then we realized how busy they were and that we were taking up half the store.



Friday night, Sariah decided to throw herself a birthday party, which was a great idea. We went to Sushi Yah and ate too much sushi. I didn't know if that was possible, but I figured it was that night.



So in my previous blogging days, I posted how much Sariah and I get comments on being twins. I still don't see it. Well, I spent the night at Sariah's last night and this morning when Kamden woke up he came and found me in bed. Well, he thought I was Sariah. He was just fine to snuggle with me and then he saw his mom. The way he kept glancing back and forth in total confusion was so cute. If he gets that confused, it really says something.



This is a really bad picture of me and Sariah, but it was the most recent.

I'm baaackk...

After much thought and some encouragement from some of my wonderful family, I decided to start my blog back up. Yep..it's been a long time, but I have fun doing it and enjoy even more reading other's blogs, so I figured why not? My life is not too exciting and it seems all I would talk about is school, so I am going to try to mix it up this time.
Over the past 10 months life has become more exciting. I have more nieces, two to be exact. I am still going to school...big surprise, and Tyler and I started dating, which resulted in some fun vacations/roadtrips.
Now...where to start. Oh ya, the cute stuff. Tyler and I met online and had a blast on our first date. To make a long story short he was living in St. George so we did the long distance thing for about two months and then I was lucky enough to get him to move here. So, we now have been dating about 5 months and have had a blast. We went to New York in july and it was so much fun. We saw Wicked, which was amazing and did a lot of sight seeing. Yes, I even went to Central Park and crossed the same bridge as Giselle (Enchanted).




As for my new nieces Hyrum and Christa had another baby and named her Annabelle. She is adorable and I don't see her enough. Every time I have seen her she is a total angel and I love it. Rodney and Lyn had their first baby. Love, love, love her! Yes, I love all my nieces and nephews, but I really like Miss Kaylee. Ty and I have watched her a few times and it's always fun.
There we go...there is my start for now. It will only get better and more exciting.
