Mexico Getaway

Congrats Mom and Dad! My mom was in a meeting in Sandy Tuesday and because she rocks as a manager she won/earned a trip to Mexico for 2! They have never done anything like this! I cried after I got off the phone because of all the people to deserve this it is them. They have always given us kids everything we need/want. This time they get to spoil themselves. I love you guys! xoxoxo

Craft Time

I want to have a craft night after Thanksgiving and after finals. My mom and I bought a bunch of random tiles when I was in HS. We always said we were going to use them for crafts but never did. For Christmas I want to make a few mosiacs for Christmas presents. I was thinking I would try and get some ladies to participate with me. We could all chip in for supplies and make a fun night out of it. Our hubby's, boyfriends, and 'lovers' could play video games while we craft. Who would want to participate? If your really serious about this we can figure out how much we would all need to pitch in. It would be a cheap project and it would look amazing when we were done.

Some things we could tile:

table tops
yard steps
wood plaque (I want to make one for a head board, may take more than one evening)
night stands

If you want visuals of these things let me know. I could find some examples. Let me know! I'll be doing this with or without a posy but it would be fun to have you there! :)

Randomness

I like random useless knowledge. Enjoy!

Some people drink the urine of pregnant women to build up their immune system.

A lifespan of an eyelash is approximately 150 days.

In Japan, the number four is considered to be unlucky because the Japanese word for four sounds very similar to the word death.

Bare Minerals

After months of debating, I finally bought Bare Minerals. It just came today! I already ripped the box open, watched the 'How To' video and have it on! I love it! I look so different but I can't feel it at all!

This is Little Cotton Wood Canyon last fall. It was a beautiful drive and I loved every second of it.

I tag anyone who wants to try it. Toni should do it because I know you have a lot of pics.

Coyote's

Coyotes are extremely loyal to their mates. If one is caught in a trap, the other will bring small game for it to eat; it will soak itself in a river to allow its thirsty mate to chew on its damp fur for water. It has been documented that the free coyote will stay with its captive partner until death.

Are you this loyal to your mate?

Thrusday's Thoughts

With this election comes rage and confusion or excitement and hope for some of us. Not one of us think the same so I would like to hear what you have to say about the new president. Feel free to tell your true feelings here. The only thing I ask is that you do this in a nice way (no rudeness please). I really do want to hear what you have to say. I need some enlightenment on the subject and I feel this is a great way to get it.

Thanks! I can't wait to hear from you all!

Vote Please

Voting day is here! When you go out and vote today please keep in mind YOUR FUTURE not just your life RIGHT NOW. Remember the things you vote for today will last 4-8 years or longer. Do what feels good not what everyone else is doing. Good luck!

--Today will make history so make it good!

5 Finger Discount

I saw someone stealing from the dollar store today. I was intrigued so I continued to watch and slyly followed their tracks. As they kept stealing I wondered how easy they made it look. I couldn't help but think about all the things they had stolen to this point in their life. Was this their first time? What kind of things do they have at home? A bunch of junk or do they have quality items? As I followed and pondered I didn't notice the police coming down the isle. Yep, that's right. My clepto friend was not as stealth as I thought. They were taken away and now their life will never be the same, all for a few dollar items at the neighborhood Honk's Dollar Store.

My choice not to steal was backed up today as I witnessed this act of stupidity.
