Flower Girl Baskets...

I was actually very productive today. I had the day off work and I made the most of it. I had to go take my finals in the morning... which I did OK on. I then went to the craft store and bought the stuff I need for flower girl baskets. I then went home, turned on a movie... and started being crafty. Here are the finished products...

Hopefully the flower girls with like them.

Yesterday we watched Mike's Niece and Nephew for a few hours. They wanted me to get some pictures of them in their cool hats.
This is Saleen in her Cool Dora Hat. Saleen is going to be one of my flower girls.

Dallas in his Dallas Cowboys hat and jersey. Dallas is in his terrible twos... so the best way we can entertain him... is to bring out the bubble wrap from when we moved in. That seems to entertain him for a little while. Anyways... it is always fun having them over. They are cute kids. I love how they say my name. Saleen calls me Mowissa and Dallas calls me Missa.

Well I need to get going. I just got paid today so off I go to Walmart for groceries!

Back to Reality...

We are now home. It sucks to be back home and have to face work tomorrow. It was a very fun trip though, and was very much needed. Yesterday we all went to Mesquite for dinner. It was fun. My family all made fun of me because I was too chicken to ask the grill guy for a cheeseburger. He was a scary looking guy. Kristy finally went up with me and ordered it for me. The guy making it, looked really angry that we made him work. The whole time he was making it he had this angry look. I was a bit worried. The cheeseburger was good once I finally got it. It was a ton of fun joking around with my family.

Today Mike and I slept in until 10 am. It was nice. We then got up and just bummed around until everyone got home from church. We then had my favorite meal (fried
chicken, potatoes, and Milk gravy) for dinner. Linda and my mom made it. It was sooo good! I haven't had it in a long time! It was kinda crazy with all the kids running around the house though.

After dinner (and one game of Apples to Apples) Mike and I packed up and headed out. The drive home wasn't too bad, but there were some scary rainy areas with very little visibility. We managed so survive and make it home in one piece though. Now we have the fun task of unpacking. It was well worth it for that vacation.
Everyone just Chillin waiting for dinner to get done.

Linda and Mom making dinner. Yummy!

Brian Head

So far, St. George has been fun. We got here Thursday night and went to Tuacahn and saw Les Miserabe (I dunno how its spelled). Seeing the play was a great idea (Thanks Tiffini). It was fun but very long. Mike and I were both tired and going off little sleep. It was neat though. I went to school at Tuacahn so it was a trip down memory lane for me. It was fun getting to show Mike where I went to school. After the play, they did some fire works that were neat.

Today we got up and headed to Brian Head. We spent a few hours four wheeling. Mike and I were on the four wheeler while my parents were both on the side by side aka Rhino. Molly had a blast. She started out in the back of the rhino, but was going nuts. she figured out she could jump out so she kept running in front of us. It was fun... she just felt she had to lead us. We then would stop and let her ride for awhile. It was a ton of fun.



After we got back from Brian Head, we gathered up the family and went to The Cracker Barrel. That was fun. We had Mike, me, my parents, Linda, Shelley, and Kristy. It was a hoot. I always love getting the family together because it guarantees a laugh. It was nice being able to go to The Cracker Barrel because that is a tradition for Mike and I. It was an added bonus getting to go with my family. Anyways... tomorrow we are planning on a Mesquite trip, so there will be another post coming soon.
