24th- Saratoga Springs style!

Happy Twenty Fourth! It was a party (wild style)

Tucker is so cute with JOe. Some little kid spilt water on Joe and Tucker almost Beat that kid down. they were happy looking for bug's in the rocks instead of eating dinner... Such BOYS!






Anna obviously is closer... but you can see our lovely Myah and Gracie (it was actually Myah's Birthday) Then there's Ceri and Jerry...

It was a BBQ in the Bishops back yard which was really cool looking over the LAke with really nice grass.
This Pic of Trent is random and probably won't ever be availible again. I'm sure Anna see's this view alot- I thought it was actually kinda cute.

The food was so GOOD. Then we had a nice round of neighborhood golf and Fireworks galore.

I'm grateful my family let me tag along...

more Pics on my phone...

JOsh thinks it's really funny to pull fun faces. Miranda found my phone...
JOsh and reandfy were actually really nice... they came down to SLC and helped me move!

BY the Way, my birthday is coming up....

Jack Johnson CD is a must have- mine is gone MUST BE REPLACED.

- Ricky Martin (spanish Only he sounds dumb in English)

Pillows... I never have enough and I have 4. I think like 10 will do.

Tickets to Les Mes. in Tuacon (St george)

OH****** I need help. I have a Canopy Bed and i can not figure out what to do with it as Far as the Canopy goes. I have a Sage Green and gold Bed spread and I was thinking Brick red Pillows but I have no Idea about the top of that bed... HELP.
Hahaha two week dash out of my place thats funny. It really turned into the 2 day dash. I am now a provo resident.

I love the place. It's great
Literally last week was the craziest- seems like they always are doesn't it?

Let me break it down for you...

Last Sunday:

being inspired by a co worker, I jump on Craigs list look up classifieds for people seeking people (if you've never done it and want to laugh your but off to it!) I actually responded to one- a 29 year old guy in provo and I think to my self... Man... living in provo would really suck. (like end of the world suck)

Monday morning:

I gett a response back from the Guy... it's a no go... good I wont have to spend time in provo. (whats worse than answering a personal? getting rejected by a guy on one) None of my deals from the previous week went through that were supost to so I don't have a paycheck. I need to get a job that pays.

Then I go to FHE and actually enjoy a ward activity. (the first one I've enjoyed: and of course it was a bunch of girls sitting around gossiping)


Tuesday:

9 am: roll out of Bed (which is a matress ont he floor) and get to work... I wish I had a new job...

9:15am I call Erika- my best friend from High school years, and her husband is starting Med school at the U. She's up here with out him for a whole month. We schedule Dinner for tomorrow... I'm not really too excited... My experience has not been the best with friends from the past.

10 am: Zane at work asks me if I'm moving casue he'd love to live in my Apt

11am: I get a job offer to work for the state of Utah in the Welfare department spanish speaking and my start date is the 28th of July. I'll be working 5 days the first week and then only 4 days a week after that... Woot Woot.

12 am: I tell my Dad about an Idea i have to get investing in Real Estate started... He freaks out on me and i am Crushed. I know I will be successful and i know we could make alot of money... i sometimes think my dad is around the same people I am and he knows the little short cuts we teach at work- but he doesn't, so he's not happy with my explination. He wants a full report in an email...

1 pm: I talk to Todd my Supervisore (who is awesome and puts up with ALOT from me) and his duplex in provo is already full... I think- thats fine I'll drive in to provo from SLC... I've got time.
BUt I do list my aPT on my ward web site.

1:30 pm first call about the apt. comes. (AWESOME)

2:30 pm i send off the email to dad... no response.

5:30 Leave work to find 4 more calls about the apt and 3 emails... I all the sudden am feeling paniced to get out of that place.

10am I tell Todd I'm moving into his place for sure. He's excited. He says it's his way to force me to keep in touch with him. i tell him he doesn't have to take my paycheck for that (rent- it ws funny and I am glad I'm staying at Todds house. He's a very stable and Caring guy- what a blessing)

11am Todd comes to my desk and says his wife feels like I HAVE to see the place first. I feel like it's a waste of a drive to provo.. I can be happy anywhere...

6:35 pm I get the first call about the apt and my phone does not stop ringing.

6:40 I get on the freeway to go to Provo to meet my Karen (todd's wife) and I realize I'm in down town- I went the wrong way.

7:30 I finally get to Provo, see the place talk to Karen, everything is great, I love the place and am kinda freaked out it's so big...

6:30 It's SO good to see her!!! I MISS HER. She has 3 kids that are so cute... I totally wish i was still living in SLC Close to her. I invite her to my parents house (her kids are the same ages of my sisters and my sister would love her) PLUS we went to Indian Food (amazing) I'm so sad I am moving

9 pm I Call Teri and tell her she can head down.

920 teri arrives we jump in my Car and i realize I left my wallet at Erikas house. So we go to Erikas, then we get Breakfast food, a movie (fools gold-Aweful), and Spoon me Ice cream... To die for all natural Ice Cream.

12 pm Lights out... No sleeping though

SATURDAY

8 am The alarm in my head goes off and I'm in the shower. The packing begins, Jerry shows up, josh shows up with Randy and the funis being had.

They struggle getting my couch out... what a pain in the butt!!!! I'm so over whelmed. Any one who knows me knows I'm a plan packer... I like to have everything perfectly organized.

12 pm we finally get around to cleaning which means the packing part is done.

2 pm All clean we are out of there... I droop the keys off to the Land lord and off we go to Provo.

2:30 Ceri and Mike Show up in Provo. The couch comes in no problem. Everything is great in provo. The apartment is cool with out Air conditioning and we set up my KING SIZE canopy BEd... I have a bed!!!!! My life is the best ever.

7 pm we finally are to the point where we all go to dinner (jerry went fishing- he deserved it!) Chinse. Mike tells people in the resturant we are dating... i freak out. The rest of the conversation I don't even remember... I was so tired.

Off I head to Ceri's to sleep. But I end up on the internet all night

1pm i take a show and literally PASS out in the yummy bed.

SUNDAY

Teds Birthday Celebration, Myahs B-day celebration, and Ceri and Jerry's aniversary...
Which means I got endowed just before Ceris wedding... so It's 6 years I've been blessed.

I wake up totally at peace... The best nights rest. Pancakes and Hashbrowns await me.

Off to provo again... I feel useless with out folded clothes and a made bed, and hung pictures... so I take Myah and off we go for special time in Provo.

Then the whole family Comes again... for the PArty... FUN! everything goes great and the night ends with some killer games of Gin rummy and Farkel. (I get killed but don't care... after the week I had i'm happy to be alive)

So thats the story. With out other little details like Ted's truck breaking down as Jerry is driving it with Everything I OWn in side of it- I had to say good bye to my friends, I havne't changed my Address yet, and a few other details... I think all in all the moove went well. I am so grateful to my family who literally got my butt from point a to point B. I was so sad and overwhelmed and just not doing well... I needed them and I am glad I have family I can rely on.

On Saturday I wanted to go to the lake... and I could not talk any adults to go with me so finally I hunted down a few kids to take with. I got Hayden, Micah, Jona, and Tucker and cher... the puppy to go with me... They were alot of fun.
The marina was full and they would not let anyone else drive in so we parked down the street and drug the little boat through the field... UG. But the water felt AWEOMSE and it was the first time to the lake that I didn't get sun burnt... (except for the little strip I missed with sun block) I'm growing up!
This is Joesph and Syd... So cute...
