Bees Game!

So this weekend we went to the Bees game with Adam's family for Eric's birthday! The Bees lost (12-3) but we had a great time! We had a box, so most of us spent the game sitting inside playing games and hanging out! The fireworks after were also awesome! So here is a video of Adam, on the way to the game, after 3 large glasses of kool aid!



So school starts in less than a week! I went to campus today after work to check on a couple of things and there were freshman and their parents everywhere! It was crazy! I don't know why it was so overwhelming for me, but I guess after being out of the whole school scene for almost 5 months, it is kind of a shock! I'm real excited, my books are going to cost about $500!!! Wish me luck finding good deals on the internet! :) Adam started school today and I think he about had the same reaction lol!

Work is going well (slow) and it is crazy how my feet got so out of shape from not serving for such a short time! The drama has died down a lot (thank goodness) and it is nice to be able to go to work and just do my job!

Life is pretty boring this week, but no worries, if anything exciting happens, I'll make sure to post!

Solitude

So we had quite an eventful week last week! There was lots of drama at work, so I took the week off and spent some quality time with Adam! I worked with him for a couple of days, which was really fun! We went with our friends Tommy and Aria (and their 6 week old baby, Sydney) to a cabin up in Solitude for a couple of days! It was so nice! We went for a little hike up at Silver Lake, ate lots of junk food, played some games and card tricks and enjoyed the scenery! They kept apologizing about their crying baby, but we hardly even noticed it!

I also was able to go up to Ogden and hang out with Katchie! I got my hair done ( which obviously looks amazing since Katchie did it :) and we took Grandma Henderson to lunch! I was naughty and stopped at Steve and Barrys just incase they had some new items in the Bitten line and I bought 4 sweaters! They are so cute! For any of you who have a Steve and Barrys near you, you have to go! It is fabulous! Right now, everything is 9.98 and under! Sarah Jessica Parker and Amanda Bynes clothing lines are so super cute!

Then on Saturday we went to the Utah County Fair and got to see thier first annual demolition derby! Adam had never been to one before so it was really fun! It lasted like 4 hours! And we even left early!! It was really fun to watch and the powderpuff round was the most exciting! They had the wives go and one of them kept ramming into the other cars and made one roll over and her car was on top! It was CRAZY! They had the emts and firefighters and cranes come out to lift the car off her!

Anyway! This week has been really nice! I also discovered this recipe to make cake pops and I am totally addicted! Aria took some amazing pictures of them for me and they look so good!

Feelin Good!

So my goal all summer was to be able to get back to the gym... ok well it was actually my new years goal but I didn't really make it happen :) Better late than never right?! Haha So I have been so proud of myself for the past 3 weeks! I love kickboxing! One of the servers at Happy Sumo is a kickboxing instructor and so I have been going to her classes! I feel so great after going to the gym and I really hope I can keep it up! Anyway, so I figured if I actually tell people I am going to the gym then I will be better motivated to keep it up!

School starts in less than a month :( I am NOT thrilled about it. But... it will be good to have something get me out of bed before noon! I will actually be going to school 5 days a week for the first time in my college experience. AND 8 o'clock classes :( But the end is near!

So even though I could come up with a laundry list of how ghetto my apartment is, we have one of the most amazing views from our front porch! It rained today and we got the most amazing rainbow! A full rainbow behind the mountains! You can't ask for a better view than that! :)

Lole's diet is going well... we appreciate all of your love and concern lol! It is really hard to keep disciplined but she has really been a trooper!

This is a picture I just took from our front porch! :)

Poor Girl :(

So I am still trying really hard not to laugh as I say this, because REALLY it is so sad! My dog is obese. Adam took Lole to the vet this past week to get her shots and the vet was very concerned because of how obese Lole is! So now she is on a diet :( It is the saddest thing ever! She keeps looking at me with those sweet puppy dog eyes (which got her so chubby in the first place) and it makes me feel so bad that I can't give her treats! Lol she is on this special diet dog food for less active dogs! I thought my dog was active! Anyway.. I'll post pictures of the progress as she loses 5-8 pounds :)

Here is Lole last December:

And then her this summer:
