I know I know I know.....

I am very aware that it has been way over due for a post....not that any of you really look forward to my post but maybe some where out there in the cyber world someone does so this is for you! The thing is is that I don't really have much to blog about.....so this post is going to consist of random thoughts so I apologize.

First and formost if you haven't bought the new Alicia Keys CD you must get it!! it's amazing! And coming from a person that is very picky on buying music especially the entire album I wouldn't lie. So what are you waiting for? go get it!!

So I know I have a bit of a shopping addiction....well I don't really call it that I just think I enjoy fashion and I have an appreciation for fabrics, colors, the cut of clothing, and they way it's made. There shouldn't be anything wrong with that right? but lately I guess I've just been annoyed by the fact that that is the label I'm associated with....like I'm not capable of doing anything else and I'm just that wife that shops. So what if I don't race bikes and I'm not an avid snowboarder at least I look presentable everyday.
To top it off I'm going to San Francisco tomorrow for a day to go SHOPPING! Surprise Surprise...I'm very excited about it! hopefully I can get most of my Christmas shopping done....at least for myself...he he..

Does anyone have any good ideas for Christmas Gifts?? I'm always curios on what people give as presents.

December is going to be a very crazy month for me and I'm sure for everyone else so don't be sad if my next post doesn't come out for a while.

This is what I've been up to





I'm pretty sure everyone has been dying to know why I haven't posted a blog in forever....well the truth is I've been LAZY! don't worry I've checked everyone Else's blogs but then I get to exhausted to do my own. I know Lame.....let's see since the last blog I wrote I'm sure I've had to of done a couple of exciting things.

Back in September as you all know I went to the Beyonce concert with my sister and good friend Sosa...and that was too much fun! Then I went back to Vegas a few weeks later and went to "Cross Vegas" it's a huge cycle cross race that my husband was in which is always fun to watch. We also went to the interbike trade show. FUN FUN!! not so much but for my husband it was heaven. Which makes me happy.

Let's see what else....I've been working a little bit which is a whole different blog cause I could go for days about how I babysit adults. I did host a "Girls night Out" a couple of weeks ago. Which turned out super fun! our night consisted of eating sushi, drinking cocktails (way too many cocktails!) and dancing! Girls night out is a definite must! for those that never do it. I'm going to throw another night which will be dinner and a haunted house. I'm scared just thinking about it actually (I'm a big wuss when it comes to scary stuff but I'm gonna do it!)

I'm also starting my own wedding planning business. I know crazy huh! I've already got two clients one that is getting married next June and one that is actually getting married in January. So I'm sure that will be keeping me busy. I'm also looking for some names for my business. So let me know if you have any ideas. I also have a partner named Missy that is going to be helping me out. Just in case you wanted to incorporate our names in the title.

Oh and my 1st year anniversary is coming up on Sunday the 14Th I've been married a year! time flies...I think we are going to do a spa day up at Snowbird and go to some fancy dinner. I'm definitely looking forward for that.

And last but not least my friend wants to give me a Brazilian wax tomorrow. I'm not sure what to think about that but I told her I would do it only if we can drink wine before any of this waxing begins. I don't care what any of you think! I know it's going to hurt!!

So that pretty much sums it up....oh wait I need to give everyone a recipe for these amazing pumpkin chocolate chip cookies that I made yesterday it's super easy and they are soooo yummy!! and there is only 4 ingredients.

  • One box of Spice Cake mix
  • One can of pumpkin filling ( I don't remember the ounces but it's the bigger can)
  • Chocolate Chips (As many as you desire)
  • Cinnamon Chips (As many as you like)
  • Bake at 350 for 25-30 min
  • Try not to eat them all because you will!

OK I know that there are people out there that watch "So You Think You Can dance" but I can't seem to find anyone that watches the show religiously.....Can I tell you that my favorite is Sabra!! I love love love her! she's so dang cute and is such a great dancer!! do you think she's going to win? I do!! Does anyone know if they are going on tour in Salt lake or Vegas? because I would totally go! the show almost makes me want to dance (almost is the key word) they make it look so easy!

It's Official

I know I haven't posted a new blog in forever but I guarantee this one is worth the wait! So it's official that I am PREGNANT!! can you believe it?!?! it's hard for me to grasp this myself but I'm definitely excited and terrified at the same time. I'm about 12 weeks right now which is nice because I hear this whole being tired thing subsides after the first trimester.....I haven't really experienced the whole "morning sickness" thing for me it was an all day event. Which I can't really complain because I guess people have it worse. At least I haven't thrown up or anything. I would just feel nauseous all day (this only lasted about 2 weeks thank goodness!) but now I'm feeling good a little tired at times but for the most part "normal" I'm still able to go to the gym so that's a plus! So if any of you that have little tykes of your own and have any advice for a first timer I'm all ears! and don't worry I'll keep everyone posted on how fat I'm getting throughout the months. So get excited!!

Weekends are good!











So I have no clue how to do the cute little collage's that everyone is doing and I don't really want to figure it out....can someone just explain how to do it?? Please.....I don't really have anything exciting to Blog about so I guess I'll just let everyone know about my fun filled weekend. So it all started on Saturday morning when Courtney Lang, Courtney Bence and I decided to ride our bikes downtown to the farmers market. Which is a good time if you've never been their is lots of food and some cool booths to browse. When suddenly one of the Courtney's got a flat tire....which sucked because it wasn't fixable so we had to call everyone we knew to come and pick her up. Finally we found someone to come and get her and Courtney and I had to leave her because we were already running late to Ali's bike race at Sugarhouse park. So we get to the bike race a little late but we were their to cheer him on! he didn't get number one like he had hoped but he did really well anyways. That night was the opening of the Circle Lounges patio (The Circle Lounge is a bar just in case you were wondering) so a whole bunch of us went down to enjoy some sushi and drink some tasty cocktails. All and all it was a busy fun filled day! and the next day I was pretty much worthless....but that's what Sundays are for.
