My Birthday!!

For my birthday I went to Sizzler with some of my friends. It was a blast to just have good food and good friends. Great day!!

Catch up!!!

Just some pictures I love of my little sweet hearts!! And one of Jade's new favorite hairstyles that I love!!

Are they always right??

One of those things I hate to admit...... My mother was right. This is a novel by the way, really really long!!
For about a month or 2 now my mother has been getting on my case about burning the candle at both ends. In fact a few direct quotes from her have been "your going to wear yourself out until your sick" and my favorite " If you don't slow down your body will make you!" well, dang it, she was right on the nose this time! Last weekend was supposed to be fun and exciting! You know, Holiday weekend! Well, it started out good, but I woke up Saturday morning with a pretty sore throat. Blah, but you can't let a little sore throat get you down, so I lived through it for Saturday, and Sunday by just taking it easy, having a relaxing weekend. On Monday it was worse, but I really wanted to go out with this guy. So I went to an afternoon movie with him, against my mothers advice. Again, my mother was right, I shouldn't have gone. I felt worse when I got home. A lot worse. So I went straight to bed and planned on having a normal day on Tuesday. Yeah right. I was going to get ready for work, but I couldn't swallow, talk, all I could do was cry!! I felt so bad, because my job is not just one of those where they can do without you for a day!! So my mom took me to the doctor, but decided I was a big girl, and she sat in the car when I went in. Yeah, I have never, ever cried when given a strep test. Well I bawled, and the nurse felt so bad for me that she even brought me an otter pop. They did all the tests, and it turns out I have Mono!! Yeah!! Ha Ha. fabulous! So I get my medicine and instructions from the doctor to come back if my throat gets any worse. Well, it did, a lot worse. I went back in to the doctor on Wednesday and ended up getting antibiotics, steroids and fluids through an IV. and plus I got to have home health care come and show me how to give myself more medicine through my IV every 4 hours!! So here is where that mother was right thing really bites. The doctor said and I quote " sometimes your body just makes you slow down" OUCH!!! She really was right!!! I stayed on the couch or in bed for 4 days straight. I finally finished my IV meds, and I can swallow and breath now, but I'm still exhausted. I'm happy to say that I will be going back to work on Monday, come rain or shine!! I miss my little girls so much!! And one more thing, which is breaking my heart! Having mono means one big thing to me right now... I cannot go to MDA camp. I cant even go to the talent show on Sunday! I am so crushed by this. This will be the first camp I have missed since I turned 16. This would have been my 7Th year!! I'm so broken about this!!! But I guess I really am just not supposed to be there this year.

I Will I Will!!

So I've been getting in trouble for not posting recently, but I promise I will!! I've just been really busy and really tired every time I get home! So for now just know that life is going great, I'm really active and always on the go, and I love it! I'll get more update posts up here when its not 11:00 at night!! I need my sleep!!

My Birthday!!!

Happy Birthday to ME! Happy Birthday to ME! Happy Birthday to MEEEEEEEEEE!!! Happy Birthday to ME!!! Yeah! Today is the happy day that I turn 22!! At precicely 12:15 this morning I turned 22!! Everyone is like "well thats cool, but 22 isnt really special" Well Bah to them!! I think 22 is fantastic! To not be 21 anymore!!! I know when you turn 21 you're an "adult" but people only consider you a baby adult!! Now that I'm 22 that will stop, and I'll be a full fledged ADULT!!! Any how, I'm glad its my birthday, because that means that summer will be here soon!!! Yeah!!! Happy Birthday to ME! Happy Birthday to ME......................... yeah, you know the rest!

Giant Target!!!

Yesterday!! Oh, boy! I think my car has a giant target painted on it that I can't see, but everyone else aims for!!! I got in ANOTHER car accident!!! It wasn't a bad one, but it still bites!!! The guy clipped my back bumper going 50 mph. I really was lucky, he swerved at the last min and just clipped me, if he hadn't, oh, I don't even want to think about it!! But I'm OK, and my car will be fine, and paid for by the other guys insurance. Its just annoying to be in 3 car accidents(one with a friend the her car) in 5 months!! Not to mention the ones before then! My dad was joking that by this time next year, my car will be brand new!!! Didn't exactly make me laugh last night, but it is funny I suppose! Oh, well! Guess that's my luck!

Concerts!!!!

So April was an amazingly luck for me!! I got to go to 2 awesome concerts!! Both for free!!! The first one Leanne and I had been trying forever to win tickets to because you could only win them!! It was the Rock in UVU concert hosted by X96! It had 5 bands playing! It was Josephine Collective(that we actually missed, they were first on) Ludo, The Brobecks, Story of the Year, and The Bravery!!! It was freakin awesome!! So Leanne finally won tickets and we were stoked, but then we had a chance to get 4 more!! Leanne and I each took a date, and gave the other 2 to our friends RJ and Alle. It was such a blast!! And it was cool to find out that the camera in my new phone doesn't do half bad!!
The other concert our friend Jon had won tickets to and decided he didn't want to go! Sad for him, but yeah for me and Leanne!! This one had Rev Theory, it was the first time I'd ever heard of them(but they have a really hot lead singer!) Flyleaf, who I really like, and Seether!!! That's the band I really wanted to see!! It was a blast, and we got a great spot, in the balcony right beside and a little back from the stage! The view was incredible!! So here are the pics I got, not amazing I know, but pretty darn good for being in a crowed that was moshing and constantly moving!!
PS. I was NOT moshing, I was avoiding the pits as best I could!! I may be crazy, but I'm not a complete lunatic!!!

Small Taste

So this week has been quite hard. I have been sick all week! Blah, just feeling terrible! And Amy, my boss, has been out of town for work since Tuesday afternoon, so I absolutely had to work. I have had a small taste of what it would be like to be a real mother and sick at the same time! And on top of that, my little girls have been sick as well! I am glad to say that I am stronger than I thought I was! Yes, I am exhausted, and yes, I am still sick, but I also made it through! I love those little girls so much! Jade has been so understanding that we cant wrestle, and rough house like we usually do because Miss Kim has an upset tummy and headache. She was also very helpful with Ivy this week, offering to get her bottles for her, playing with her to keep her busy, and cheering her up when she felt particularly awful. She's such a great helper! Ivy too! She has been so good this week! Its hard on me to see them not feeling good!! I'm just really glad that the weather hasn't been great, it gave me a valid reason to say "no, we're going to stay inside today!" Well, Amy is home now, and I even get to go in an hour late tomorrow, and its Friday so I'll have the weekend to recuperate! I'm happy to know that I could handle it, but not pushing to be a real mother any time soon!!! I'll stick with my sweet little ones that I have now!!
