*GoOdWiLl*GoOdIeS*

GOODWILL is AMAZING for all of the treasures below!

So cute!!! Cute color and all! It needs a little paint repairs but that will do! $9.99 WHAT A BUY! I think this was my favorite thing we got!
Cute lamp that sits on the blue table. Hand painted flowers on it. Just needs a better lamp shade and its good to go!


Don't memeber the price but everything was under $10.00



Cute vase. Green mint color. Saw it at the checkout on 50% off day and it was only a BUCK 50! Couldn't pass up!

Books for Table. Random Books that is.. the point is not to know the books but to just have the bottom shelf full of fun colorful books.. and YES the pink one is MEAN GIRLS. I found the Mean Girls book at Goodwill. I really wanna read it! hahahaha



Kacie's mom works at Poppys.. This is a find she gave us for our house. Its stuff that is a lil broken or damaged from Poppys. The leg on this chair is a lil broken but its still CUTE as can be and still works to sit on.


Logan's Find!! He actually found something when I made him come with me on V-day. I don't know what exactly it is.. and there was only one of them. Maybe some type of water ski or something.. but, Logan is Mr. BUILT IT MAN! He will find something and instantly he has something he wants to make out of it.. He is always building something COOL and NEAT. Soon as he saw this Ski type thing he wanted to make it into a Longboard. AND THAT HE WILL DO! I don't know how this boy is so talented in making stuff.. but if he puts his mind to it he can build anything he wants.. and believe me he has some crazy ideas!!! He is currently working on building a big shed,hang out room, storage for his tools at his parents house.. which is backed with a half pipe skate ramp he made as well. I will take pictures and post them, because its starting to look really cool and Logan is MORE than into "GREEN" stuff.. so its being all made with those guidelines.. solar panels.. crates.. walls are made of mud that are combined with hay to keep the mud intact and than he will stucco all the walls. Pretty neat!


THANK YOU GOODWILL!


End of February in a Nutshell

Here is February in a Nutshell for me!!

It seems as though Feb. has been a BUSY month for me and I have stayed busy and the month FLEW by and its already march.. where is 09' going?

1st... We officially closed my WAMU branch! Some things have changed since I last said that I was going to a Chandler branch... They decided last minute (a week before we were to close) that my whole branch was going to stick together and go across the street to the Chase on Lindsay and Warner.. So that is where I am at... It actually worked out better for me because I dont have to add 10 miles to and from work anymore, I can still go to my parents on my lunch :) and I get to stay with my same work team! So its 2 bank in one.. A chase side and a Wamu side.. This is only my 2nd day working at the Chase shared branch but so far things have been going smooth! So hopefully everything will work out.
2nd... I GOT MY WISDOM TEETH OUT-its over with, thank goodness!
But, to be honest it wasn't as bad as everyone was making me think. I got put under which I am so happy I did because I dont even like the feeling of being in a dentist chair. (weird phobia I have always had with NEEDLES, DOCTORS, DENTIST and HOSPITALS. Im not sure where I got this from) I got them out in the morning and when I first layed down in the chair I asked the nurse lady if she could numb the area she was going to poke me for the IV because im scared of needles.. She was really nice and gave me laughing gas which basically made me loopy anyways without the IV and than she froze my arm where she was going to poke me.. and by this time the needle didnt feel to bad.. one small pinch and it was over with. The doctor came in and I was really loopy by this time and he was asking me what my plans were for the day and my reply was... "Well, I guess nothing now right haha probably just watch movies" and he asked what kind of movies I liked and I couldnt for the life of me think of any movies so I said "Disney" and thats the last thing I rememeber until I woke up and first thing I asked was "did you guys already finish?" ha. I actually went out the first night that I got them out and we went and played Rock Band. My top 2 teeth have not bugged me once, as for the one bottom one that I had it hurt and was painful and thats the only place I got Swollen and puffy and still am a little.

Than I came down with a really really sore throat... NOT FUN to have a sore throat and than wisdom teeth pain at the same time! ALL IN ALL IM GLAD ITS ALL OVER WITH!!!

(Don't laugh at the pictures... It was to hard to smile)

Yes.. This is on the car ride home... Maybe a little out of it.. but not as much as everyone says I would be... It must have worn off a lot on me or I slept longer... But I was still out of it to say the least.
Night 1.. Same night I got my teeth out.. I am def. swollen but more swollen on the right side... and yes I may be a little loopy here too from the pain killers.. But man were they a lifesaver! I think thats why I was in so much pain Monday cuz I wasn't taking the pain killers anymore so I just was dealing with the pain. hahaha I laugh everytime I look at this picture! I would only ever post these in a occasion like this. (Colbz my scarf helped hide my swelling a lil :))

3rd... which goes with the above.. I WANT ROCK BAND SO BAD!!! I LOVE THAT GAME! (pictures of us playing rock band)

He has a strobe light and a fog machine so that is why the pictures look all hazy colored.. due to the fog machine!




The guys house we played Rock Band at has a parot.. Talking that is... but all it would say to me was "WRAP IT UP" and than it would talk really fast and say a sentence when I wasn't listening.. I would never in my life have a bird.. but it would be funny to have a talking bird.

4th... Theres a park walking distance from our casa and lately we have been walking there to play basetkball and have picnics!! Espcially because it has been so nice outside lately. So a couple sats in a row we have walked down there and hung out. On our way home we found this house in our neighborhood and the ENTIRE front yard. (no joke) was full of these bright yellow and orange flowers. It looked awesome! haha I can def. see an older couple living in this house hahaha!

5th... I have been finding lots of Goodwill fortunes as I said before! I will do a seperate post because this one would be getting way to long if I did all those pictures on here!


6th... Devo's Bridal shower is going to be April 3rd (Friday) So make sure you all have that night off work... I think we will be doing it later in the afternoon or like 6 or 7ish... Times to be announced soon. If any of you have ideas be thinking them up and remembering them!!



7th... Girls night-This week on THRS. Its going to be at Gingas house and we are going to have a Fire and play games and order Pizzzzaaaa! I will let everyone know times cuz I have to wait and see with Colby!

8th.. what is going on with OTH... I don't know if I like the rumors and talk about who might not be coming back.. whaaa its not even a show without LUCAS and PEYTON!


9th.. I hear New Moon the movie is coming out in OCT/NOV.. SO SOON! :) I hope thats true cuz I am ready for the next one!!!!!!!! Colby check into this and let me know!

~New Number~ New Phone~

YAYYY a NEW PHONE!!!

Yes... I finally got a NEW phone and with that came a NEW NUMBER!!

As many of you know my sidekick has had a HUGE crack in the screen for over 6 months... I haven't wanted to fork out the money for a new phone.. But I have far but needed one being I couldn't see half the people that were calling me... to read text messages I had to flip the screen back and forth to see behind the cracks and couldnt even read what half of the texts say, and lastly cant see what im even typing for most of the messages... so all in all it has been very difficult to use my phone to the fullest... and yesterday morning it decided not to turn back on for me.


WELL... Logan came to my rescue and bought me the NEW G1 for Christmas!!! :):)



Along with the new phone came a new phone number... The phone is already really expensive..hence why I wouldn't buy it myself, and the guys kept telling me if I get a new phone and start a new plan than it would be even cheaper and it would save me money-which they took care of all the acitvation fees and cancellation fees from my exisiting phone number! The G1 in White is the most popular phone and they have been out of stock on the white ones since 3 weeks before christmas if not more.. Logan & Kacie searched as many T-mobile stores as they could before Christmas and NO one had them in or even knew an estimated time that it would come in.. but I was determined to get that one.. so I was willing to wait the wait... well when my phone finally broke I had no choice but to get the black G1. When I got it last night the guy told me they have some white ones in stock in there corporate office and that he can request to have one being im doing a new plan and I would just return it in 14 days and get the white one... BUT also comes the fact of it getting dirty and everyone says its hard to see the keyboard at night cuz its silver on the white one.. sooo should I KEEP THE BLACK ONE or GET THE WHITE ONE..??? Im thinking possibly just stick with the black one cuz I can always get a Skin cover for it and no more hassels with returns...BUT THE WHITE ONES SO CUTE!








ORRRRRRRRRRR



I must say I am pretty phone literate... But this one is going to take some time to figure out! haha Some of the NEAT and COOL benefits it has is...

*Touch Screen& Keyboard (I would never be able to live with only a touch screen being I text so much... But I can definetly do HALF touch screen HALF keyboard :)

*One click google search...Internet is like a computer.. None of this slow & crappy sidekick internet anymore!

*3.0 Mega pixel camera- No more crappy sidekick camera

*Music player & video playback*Im/TEXT/ E-mail

*A tab on the phone to connect you directly to facebook.. wacky how phones have that on it now! haha
*Straight access to YOU TUBE! YAH I love you tube! haha

*Barcode comparison-Pretty neat! (You can scan the barcode with your phone and it will compare the prices to other stores... Just what I need.. Sounds like something Sandy needs as well hahaha!

*All applications are FREEE (best part) It has hundreds of free applications and games! AMAZING! No more buying anything on my phone... So far I have downloaded these applications for free and LOVE them.

-Wallpapers... Choose from hundreds of CUTE CUTE wallpapers.

- Checkbook Genius (do my checkbook and all on my phone instead of doing it in the registers.. I KEEP VERY CLOSE TRACK OF EVERYTHING I SPEND... I think its what happens to you once u work at a bank cuz my sister is the SAME EXACT way.

-Coupon saver-Gives u tons of coupons for different stores

-Pf voicemail... instead of calling ur voicemail each time and listening to all the messages it tells you when you have a voicemail and you call and listen to just that voicemail.

-You can download any song and its the actual song and use it as a ringtone for anything or anyone!! (FAVORITE PART-FREE RINGTONES I use to pay 3 bucks each one on my sidekick!

and LOTS more to come... so many awesome applications that I got overwhelmed last night and had to stop for the night!


Thank you Logan! :)

Valentines Day

Happy Late Valentines Day Everyone!

V-DAY was pretty low key for Logan and I...

We started the day off with going to Goodwill for there 50% off EVERYTHING sale!

Yes... I think I am slowly growing to really LIKE Goodwill! Logan bought one thing.. which i was suprised he found anything...and of course I found a whole handful of things and still wanted more. Soon as we got in the car I asked Logan if I could go back in and look around one more time.. hahaha he said no! (pictures of everything I got will come in a later post... combined with the CUTE furniture Kacie and I got for our house the week before when we went to the same Goodwill.)

We than attempted to go to Cheesecake and Pfchangs for dinner... But FAILED! I had not eaten anything the entire day so i was starving and over an hour wait to eat dinner at 5:30 wasn't worth it to me... so we resulted in Old Chicago! Which was just as good as any other place we would have gone!

After we watched a movie and hung out. Low key date nights are way better than trying to fight the Vday crowds!


And to say the least... I was asleep by 11:00 on Vday night! My sleep just caught up on me and I couldn't stay awake any longer. I was woken up at 12:15 by Kacie coming in.. She said when she came in she was trying to talk to me and I was still half asleep when she was trying to talk to me.. I guess I really was tired!


My mom made these AMAZING sugar cookies for Valentines Day! She decorated them all SUPER CUTE and even custom decorated each kids. Of course mine was with a Peace sign! SO cute! YES... there as good as they look! I have been somewhat good on the whole eating a lot of sweets thing.. but right after I got home after dinner I chowed down on 2.. yes 2 of them with milk! THANKS MOM!


Logan's V-day present from me! I started making Logan and Kacie homemade Vday cards because I was itching for a Craft to do.. well we ended up doing Vday cards and so forth for Girls night this last week so I was able to finish them up there! They turned out cute, so I think! I also gave Logan a little heart that says "LETS GO SHOPPING... a shirt of your choice on me!" LOGAN IS THE PICKIEST PERSON EVER WITH HIS CLOTHES! IT DRIVES ME ABSOUTLY INSANE! So I figured instead of trying to choose a shirt he will like, I'd let him do it himself!



Flowers Logan got me along with candy (he knows im crazy about candy) and dinner. They have a hint of purple to them! Very pretty! My favorite one is the BIG one in the second picture... I dont know the name of these flowers. MOM HELP!


He smiled the FIRST time and all on his own!!! He must have known i'd freak out on him if he didnt smile good for pictures on Vday! haha (Ginga take lessons haha)


Kacie's little V-day present! She's been saying she wants oreos for the past 2 weeks.. whats better than oreos and candy? NOTHING!




GIRLS NIGHT
~Valentines Day Crafts~





Kami came and looked so stinkin cute that night too!!!



Nadia & her book for Aaron!

I wouldn't be suprised if Nadia has already went back to Michaels and bought EDWARD! hahahaha

Until next time PeAcE

No more Sidekick...

Say GOODBYE sidekick and HELLO G1
Well... My sidekick finally had enough and decided to QUIT on me this morning.
As most of you know it currently has had a crack in it for lots and lots of months.
Logan bought me a new phone for Christmas but im PICKY and have wanted the WHITE one instead of the black one.. (the white one looks way cuter) but they have been out of stock on the whites ones since BEFORE christmas... As well as the tmobile people have been saying the white one gets really dirty easily and the keyboard is hard to see in the light.. so I think I have to resort to the BLACK g1... We will see.
So... therefore... I am out a phone ALL of today (Monday) and hopefully I can go get my new one tonight when I am off work... or tomorrow. Its going to be a NEW phone number as well so if you have texted me today and I haven't responded you now know why... (and keep in mind i wont see your text message ever either because im getting a new phone and my poor sidekick will NOT turn on for the life of me!!! So if you have something really important to tell me HOLD ON TO IT TILL I GET A NEW PHONE! I will let you all know my new phone number when I get my phone either tonight or tomorrow hopefully!

CONGRATS!

At 12:00 P.M. yesterday (sunday) I got a Text from Devon saying... "Its official! Buy me some condoms!" hahahhaha Yess... shes getting MARRIED!

CONGRATS to Devon!!

This past weekend Devon got engaged to Joe!

We are so excited for her and that she decided to have her wedding in ARIZONA so all her lovely girl friends could come celebrate tooo :) (She was going to get married in Utah at one point... we were not a fan)

The date is to be announced... May sometime she is thinking.


I've known Devon since 6th grade and have been best friends since... Little did I think.. or did any of us girls think Devon would be the FIRST in our little group of close girl friends to get married...or little did SHE think even haha (if any of you know Devon at all.. she has gone her whole life saying "I am never getting married" LITTLE did she know Joe would swoop in and she would be the LUCKY first one to get married! Shes anti weddings and anti receptions and anti talking about it... Devons always been that way! :) Thats why we all like to TEASE TEASE and TEASE her!


When I asked devon how he asked her.. her reply was... "With a please and a thank you" So therefore, you will all have to wait till this weekend when she is in town to hear the complete story!


Congrats Devon, Im very happy for you and Mr. Joe!!


Im very excited to plan my FIRST bridal shower for one of my best friends!!

(Goood thing I have a mother named SANDY who is wonderful at planning and making yummies for these type of events)

Friends shower to be announced in future!

Yes girls I want your help in planning!



PS... yes Devons not happy at me for doing a blog post! When I was trying to get her to send me a picture of her ring she figured out what I was doing.. She doesn't have the ring yet so, therefore I cant show you a picture yet! BUT... I was lucky enough to get a sneak peek at her ring shes been eyeing and I LIKE a lot! Perfectly fits Devon!

25 Interesting Things

25 Interesting things about ME

and yes... this should be interesting to think them up...

Colby sent me this on Facebook.. and I figured I would do it on a BLOG instead of Facebook because I am rarely on Facebook.


1. I HATE cats!

2. Favorite Fast food is TACO BELL (can eat every day)

3. Ive worked at the same place for almost 5 years-a long time to me

4. I want to go to Fiji Real bad and have wanted to go for some odd years

5. I love dogs-I think I like dogs the most out of everyone in my family... There dog people, I am!

6. Im not a scardy Cat like so many that I know... I LOVE scary movies, I love being home alone, Im not very cautious with some things.. for ex: leaving my window open in the winter time.. ( mom and dad freak out about that) TOTAL opposite of my Sister! TOTAL opposite in this category.. I could tell some funny stories of past times with her babysitting... One time we lived in a house on Lindsay in Circle G... My parents were gone for the night so Jenna was babysitting.. I memeber we saw a car outside and I dont know if it was parked or if it kept driving around really slow but whatever it was it totally FREAKED jenna out... I memeber we were in the laundry room looking through the laundry room window and Jenna was SO scared SO scared... If i memeber right we ended up either calling my mom and dad home or we went next door to the "Whites" house and waited till my parents got home!
7. I want to design my own home one day. (which I will) But I want to be able to choose how everything is done and what everythin looks like... I love the look of the BIG white houses with black or brown shutters. (okay okay I absoutly LOVE the notebook house and would take that house in a MINUTE) *yes colby basically I love how you worded you want ur house to look with a BIG wrap around porch and a bunch of cute chairs on the patio... AGREE 100%
8. To go along with # 7, I want and I will have a HUGE closet one day.. My sister has always wanted one and she finally just made sure she got a HUGE closet the side of a mini bedroom when they bought there new house... I think we might get it from my mom cuz my mom has ALWAYS had a bathroom and closet the size of a bedroom. But there honestly is NOTHING I hate more than having NO room for clothes in your closet.. is there every such thing as "To many clothes?"

He usually starts with being shy for a couple seconds and than wants to play with me. I LOVE THIS LIL GUY! He is the cutest lil guy EVER! Im so happy that since day 1 he has LOVED me... the cutest but most sad thing is on a couple occasions when Im getting ready to leave he will start crying or whinning.. so sad.. but cute at the same time! Braxy will be spoiled by his aunt in the days to come!
