Yesterday my new bedframe was finally delivered. I haven't ever had a bed frame. It looks really good. My room is really small, a little too small but I don't care it is the first piece of real furniture that I have actually owned. Last night was the first night that I got to sleep in my room downstairs. I can't wait to finish cleaning up the rest of the basement. I will make sure to post pictures with the progress. I wish I had taken before pictures so I could take after pictures as proof of improvement.
I have spent this whole weekend with my little brothers, Chase and Connor. They are quite the handful. It is exhausting running after kids all day, I don't know how mothers do it. I certainly don't think that I could handle it for longer than 3 days. People always say that when it is your own kids then it is different. I now have much more respect for all mothers.

My favorite conversation
I bet you could guess, it isn't the birds and the bees talk... Its the DTR. The most awkward, and the hardest conversation to get through. If you are having the DTR that means that at least one the people's feelings are involved. When feelings are involved everything gets messy. You don't want to hurt the other person, so you aren't going to be blunt. Plus you really have enjoyed hanging out. So... then what's next? Ummm... I just told you I have hanging out with you... isn't hanging out enough? I'm such a heart breaker, but I don't mean to be.The joys of going to BYU.
Then the second worse conversation of the night goes to the one where your Best Friend chooses her boyfriend over you... Another joy of BYU. I guess marriage always come first around here.

Cake decorating... is not my thing
Me and Allison promised my friend a couple weeks ago that we would make him a cake for his birthday. Yesterday happened to be his birthday. I had to work until 6, so I got a late start. I wanted to decorate it all cool, so I pulled out my a couplet little idea booklet things that my mom has with the icing tips. I decided I was going to make him a circus cake. Here are some pictures. It was really fun but it didn't turn out too well. 
This is the view of the top... all of the little skwiggley orange lines are supposed to have an m&m on top and look like balloons but I forgot to buy m&ms.
This is the sid of the cake... not as fun as the top, but it is still kinda cute.
The lesson that I learned from this experience is that I really don't think I was made to make cakes. It was fun, but I am not very good at it. Plus, squeezing that tube of icing for so long hurts my hand.

Sunday Dinner
Bryce, Jason, and Jocelynn were all over for dinner tonight. We we almost done eating and we were just talking when Bryce got in a really weird mood. I think that he was acting out different parts of movies, because he did the same thing over and over again, then he would just laugh. The first thing he did to get us all laughing was he stuck his fork in his mouth, then he started pounding his chest with his fist. He then coughs and spits out his fork... it doesn't sound very funny but it was hilarious at the time (We got him to do it a second time on camera here's the link). Then later he got a mouth full of water, we could tell by the look on his face that something was going on in his head. Then he looked and my mom with a smile on his face, we all started yelling "no" "don't" "Bryce" He loved the attention, he turned his head just in time to spit the water all over the floor instead of all over my mom. Overall it was a very entertaining dinner.

Posting everyday isn't a very easy task
I don't have kids... and I don't have money to do anything crazy... so my life seems pretty boring right now. I have been trying to think of something that happened today that is blog worthy, but nothing really happened today. I spent the day answering phones at the spa, and then I took a quick trip to IKEA. Maybe tomorrow I will get some more finished in the basement, or maybe start my painting. That way I actually have something to share when it comes to the end of the day.

Dejunking...
I have been going through all of the stuff in my room trying to figure out what I want to keep. I have so much stuff. Alot of it is stuff that I have had since I was 12. But for some reason I don't want to get rid of some of it. I am having a hard time getting rid of things, I know that I won't use most of it, but there is a small voice in the back of my head telling me that I am going to need all these things that I haven't touched in the last 8 years. I don't get why this is so hard.

Technology is taking over our lives...
Okay, so I just found out that a bunch of my relatives have blogs... Appherantly there is some pact they all have to go against the Harward ways and keep up with something so extreme. I'm in, I probably don't have as much to say as those who have lives, but I will give it a try. We don't have enough time to keep in touch with everyone so we use technology to post updates on our lives. Not a bad idea, I can check out what everyone else is up to without the hassle of talking to them. Some of my relatives are talkers, which is fine when I have the time, but most of the time when I think about them I don't have enough time to talk to them. Then on the other hand some of my relatives don't answer their phone, or return calls so I get completely cut off from them. But now, since I know they have a blog I can check it to see what is new. Technology is such a fantastic thing.
Okay, so we are redoing the office that I work at, it has taken months to get everything planned out and schedule things to come in. It is finally happening, and I couldn't be happier about it. Tomorrow, instead of working at a computer all day I will be in a training... not really sure how much fun it is going to be, but Lindsey said she was planning a few games. My days really aren't very interesting, not a whole lot happening, considering the only thing that I do is work, and... yep that pretty much covers my life.
Right now I am getting stuff to decorate the basement at my mom's. I am going to put a couch and a TV down there, put up some pictures, make it look nice. I have already almost finished painting the whole thing. Also I am going to be starting the painting that I am putting in my room soon. I did a couple quick versions of it, I haven't painted for a long time and figured a little practice wouldn't hurt. I am so excited to get started. I will have to keep you updated on that.
