Worth Every Cent

Melissa and I got out of Islands after a delicious and filling lunch of fish tacos, turkey sliders and chicken fingers and proceeded to get into her truck.

Kiel: (in thought) Ooh a penny! I haven't flicked one of those in a minute!

I flicked it across the parking lot and was content. All was well.

Melissa: What was that?

Kiel: Just a penny babe.

Melissa: You're throwing away money? What would you have with a million pennies?

Kiel: About three bucks...

Melissa: A million dollars!!

Kiel: HAHA! Right... a million pennies really is a million bucks.

Melissa: Well, three hundred pennies is three dollars so its a lot more than three dollars!

In any case, it was funny and I wish there were more people that could have witnessed this.

Ode to Fridays!

I love Fridays! Particularly this Friday.

1. We get out of work early, thanks to the launch of BF3.

2. I get a Beauty Fix 3 kit, which means lots of cool new products for Kiel and me to try.

3. Kiel and I get to cuddle up on the couch and watch a movie until I fall asleep halfway through.

4. It's leftover day so no need to cook!

5. It means tomorrow is Saturday.

I am going to LOVE Saturday, especially this Saturday!

1. Kiel and I get to sleep in.

2. We're going to the temple to meet our goal of going once a month.

3. Which means we will get a good peek of the crazy Michael J fans.

4. The missionaries are coming for dinner.

5. We get to snuggle up on the couch again and finish the last half of the movie we started on Friday :)

Dear High High Heel,

Thank you for making my outfit original and coordinating with my dress so well. You really made me taller than all the women at the party and probably in the Amazon. It was a delight to wear you, for about 2 hours and then that's ALL I could take! My feet are STILL killing me, why do you do it shoe? Why?

The Power of Laundry

"Honey, would you like to do dishes or fold laundry?"

"Dishes!"

I smile quietly. I only asked because I didn't want to do both and I knew what he would choose. I had just done 9 loads.

He gets up to go do the dishes and laughs, "Ha, ha. I am so glad I chose dishes, there are only like five dishes in here."

"I know"

"Ha, ha, look at all the clothes you have to fold."

"I know"

"Next time you shouldn't give me a choice you should just tell me to fold laundry."

"Well maybe I'll do that next time."

His smirk quickly turns into a fake frown and he quietly does the dishes. But I know if I had just told him to fold the laundry, I would have ended up doing the dishes AND then folding the rest of the clothes he didn't finish. He hates folding laundry, he would rather chew off his left arm than fold laundry. He's perfectly content with putting his clean pile of clothes in the corner of the room and sifting through it every morning to find an outfit.

So later that night I ask, "Kiel, do you want to read scriptures or fold laundry?"

With no hesitation "scriptures!"

I'll keep this in mind next time the toilets clogged :)

I Don't Feel Like it

But I'm going to anyway, so my husband has a nice hot meal when he comes home from a loooong hards day work.

Wedding Bands

Something about that silver band on my husbands left hand makes my body tingle, my face light up and my heart fall even more in love. It does it every time I see him casually scratch his head or reach his hand out for mine. It's sexy, it's hot, he's sexy, he's hot. I love!

The Getty

Kiel and I went to The Getty this Saturday, we need to go back, there is so much to see!

Gratitude Tuesday ;)

I am thankful for…

The creepy plant my cubicle neighbor owns because it gives me something to IM my other cubicle neighbor about!

Recipes from new sisters, yay for Cheesy Ratoni Maroni and Lemon Pepper Asparagus.

The earphones I “borrowed” from my husband, they make work go by soooo much faster.

My new boss at work.

Music from the Killers, Carrie Underwood and the Beatles.

All the people that I have to send a thankyou note to! (Ps, I’m almost done with that.)

LOVE, it’s the best…I dare you to argue ;)

The opportunity to speak this past Sunday, it made me a nervous wreck but paid off in the end.

Kettle Corn, oh how I covet thee! My brown suede shoes that go with every outfit.

Two working, healthy arms.

The year of 2009 that is already half over (yikes!).

Cute, adorable nieces and nephews! My cousin Lisa, who busted her cute little hiney to give me beautiful wedding pics.

HAPPY JUNE EVERYONE, if 2009 is not going that great this is the month to choose a different path!
