One week down only a week and a half to go!!!

I found out that I do get to see my Sister Kimmie, I am very excited she is taking the time out of her busy schedule to see her baby sister, even if it is for 6 hours, 6 hours is better then NO hours. Then my Mom and Dad will pick me up in Great Falls, MT and we will head South to Utah to visit my other Sister Chrissy and her family!!! The first two weeks in MARCH are going to ROCK!!!!



Any ways this weekend David and I had the opportunity to go to the drag races again this year at the Firebird International Raceways. It was lots of fun. Well we were there David got to "drive" his first motorcycle, which happened to be a Harley, He got to go in Army helicopter simulator, and we got to watch fast cars:D I am glad I decided to go I almost did not go, it was a rough week with not feeling well. David would like me to go to the Doctors but I do not enjoy going to doctors, so I am not going to go.





We were able to go to the Mesa Temple as well, we have been wanting to go for a while and really have not had the time, so we made the time to go. It was so nice to leave the care of the world for a couple of hours. Question were Answered, maybe not the way we thought they would be but the Lord works in wondrous ways. Talking about Temples this very nice older lady our ward on Thursday, which happened to not be a very good day gave me a very cool old plate. She told me one of her neighbours many years ago gave it to her when they had made a trip up to Canada. And she told me she really had no use for it so she was wondering if I would like it, so I got this really cool old plate for the Alberta Temple.



After the temple we went to our favourite place to eat, Red Robin mmmmm bottomless steak fries :D Then we found out we did not need to be back Home by 8 so we went to a Movie, we went and saw the Toothfairy, it was really cute. Then drove home, in the pouring rain.

Then today I made Cookies David's favourite Chocolate Chip. Now I am just waiting for David to return home from School, so I can cuddle my very handsome Husband which I happened to love so very much :D He is the greatest Husband ever!!!! I might be a little bias on that one :D

Just another week.

Nothing really exciting happened this week!! David worked and I sewed! I started another quilt topper, will most likely be done the whole quilt by the end of this week.

For Valentines we really didn't do much, Saturday is when we planned on having it and David decided to go to the Valley with a friend and I stayed home and sewed. He left the house at 8 am and He got home at about 7:30pm we had dinner and watched a movie, and he bought me a dehydrator for vday. On Sunday we went to a friends house for a pot luck dinner, David and I were the only ones that showed up for it, it was still nice to chat with them.

I also found out I might get to see my sister Kimmie after all, I am really excited about this :D I really can not wait to see family, I miss them so much!! I can't wait for the day I move closer to them, but that day will not be able to come fast enough.

On a side note got my elastics changed on my teeth (they are really sore), got them to match the colours for family photos that we are getting done when we are in Utah in March, can not wait the days will not go by fast enough. I MISS AND LOVE MY FAMILY :(

Can't wait for March!!!!

So I was excited to hear that David said we can go to Utah for Spring break :D Jake my brother-in-law his parents are moving to Utah so they are going there to help with the unpacking of their things. I have been waiting to hear if my parents were going to meet them in Utah or not!!! But guess what they are, so I get to see my FAMILY!!!! minus kimmie again. Gosh girl you need to come visit us, or you know go to utah with mom and dad :D

Anyways with mom and dad coming down to utah, I get more of my things, yippie :D I am so excited and I get peanut butter, yeah Kraft Peanut butter the only peanut butter in the world... And did I mention I get to see my MOM and DAD !!!!! I dislike living this far away from my Family :( I only get to see them for 4 days but guess what 4 days is better then NO days!

I have been having a hard couple of weeks with being homesick, so I am really looking forward to this. I have always been close to my family and I miss them so much, Family means so much to me, I really don't know who or where I would be without them. Kimmie I miss you a lot I can't wait to see you guys again either.

Anyways enough of me being emotional, I finished my second quilt today!! I was so excited to get my walking foot in the mail the other day I couldn't wait to use it, it is not the best looking but it doesn't look bad either :) I am excited to start more and finish even more. I have even ask my mom to bring down her quilting loom so I can challenge myself in hang quilting. And finish one of the quilts for my sister that she started when my niece was a baby. She is not 8, lol. Maybe one of her children might actually use it. I know i posted a picture of the quilt on face book but here it is again.



I will even post something on here before I post it on facebook. I told my mom I would upload a photo of the dress I made a couple of weeks ago, I was bored one day and I needed something to do, so I made a dress I didn't have a pattern so I made it up in my head, it didn't turn out to bad it of course could be better but that is what next time is for :D



Sorry that it is sideways, it was taking forever to download and I don't want to download it again.

Anyways I am just so excited for March, I get to see my family, ahhhhh!!!! I thought the next time i would see them would be at the end of this year, but prayers are answered. It is next months. I can't wait to give my mommy and daddy and sister and her kids a hug :D There is nothing better then family.

Pet Peeve

There is one Pet peeve that drives me CRAZY, and everyone in the states seems to not have this pet peeve other then me!!!! It is taking off your shoes when you come in to someone house. I do not enjoy cleaning, and if there is a solution to help keep something clean I will try to do it. Like take shoes off at front door, and don't walk around my house with your muddy shoes!!! It has been worse since it has been raining here, and since our parking area is dirt, this helps creates more dirt to track in to my house. GRRRRR. I guess growing up in Canada it was just habit to take off your shoes when you entered someone house, since 5 months out of the year they were winter boots, or muddy snow covered shoes. I don't enjoy wearing shoes around my house either but I have started to because I really don't enjoy having a rock stab my foot in the morning or dirty stick to it either. I guess I should be happy that I don't have light coloured carpet.







Who ever reads this leave a comment to tell me what your pet peeve is!!! I'm pretty sure not a lot of people do, but it would be fun to see!!! Don't be shy :D
