Saturday Craft Activity

So today I got a wild hair to FINALLY do something about these blasted pictures! I've had them forever. For my parents 20th wedding anniversary we sent them to Victoria BC in Canada for the weekend. They brought be back these prints by Jimmy Wright which I absolutely fell in love with. I've been meaning to mat them for probably....well let's see - I think my parents just celebrated their 25th anniversary this year - if that tells you anything. Anyway, I just wanted to get it done. I had some frames laying around, but no mats. I didn't really want to make the jaunt to a frame store to buy mat and then cut it - etc. (yes 5 years ago I even bought a mat cutter and everything!) Anywho - Instead I just used card stock. As I work for a card stock company I have it coming out my ears! Here are my 2 masterpieces! I actually really like the way they turned out. Hard to see in the pictures - but I had finally put them on the wall and they were straight - so I figured why mess with it!

Forgive me Father for I have sinned!

It has been 6 days since my last blog.

My friend Sarah from Nashville, TN came to visit from Friday until Tuesday Morning. We didn't really do a whole lot but shop, lay by the pool, go out to eat, and more shopping! It was really fun though to see her and spend time with her.

July 3rd Melissa and I went to see fireworks at Granite High School. First of all, it's put on by the South Salt Lake Fire Dept (which, I gotta tell you - is a lot of really hot guys standing around). I nearly lit myslef on fire, just to get some one on one time w/ one of them! haha. (kidding - kind of). Plus it was free! A pretty great show actually.

Happy Independence Day America!

I have a work trip coming up soon in Chicago and I'm working on a project. this is the current state of affairs in my office. YIKES! My desk looks twice as bad!

I have a serious addiction! (HELP!)

I literally think I might be addicted to Lifetime - Television for Women. I went home for lunch today because of another addiction to

So I started this show last night called Abducted. Anyway - it was pretty great (except for the acting)...OKAY so the guy was hot! Seriously I have standards! haha. Anyway, I had to leave so I didn't get to finish the show. Well today when I went home for lunch - and it was on again - same blasted part of course. I literally wondered how I could justify calling in "sick" to finish the show! Of course I didn't, but the fact that I wondered....wow - I've got problems.

Baby Watch 2007

Okay, so this is my favourite part of people having babies...GUESSING THE TIME, WEIGHT, LENGTH! I don't know why I love it - but I really really do!

My friend Holly is going to be having a baby soon. His name is going to be Will which is lovely but I wanted to have everyone that checks in guess the following:

The winner will get a prize! We will have a winner for each "event?" (I'm not really sure what these things are called and cannot form sentences today.) Only one entry per household. Void in Guam and Puerto Rico. (haha..I love those disclaimers. Poor Guamanians! They never get anything!)

Just so no one has unfair advantage: Holly told me the following today:
Official Due Date is July 14. But the doc said he'd induce her any time after the 12th that fits the hospital schedule.
Holly has been instructed to not answer any questions! No cheating!

Melissa's new boyfriend

haha. This picture cracks me in half. I love that his hand is basically cupping her boob. Also this was a summer when Melissa was extraordinarily tan and she looks albino next to this tan bastard. This isn't a cut out...she ACTUALLY met Fabio at a book something she was working one summer between semesters in college.

Ode to getting in shape...

Remember this stuff?
I swear I used to have it. Maybe I can't get on board to the exercise thing because I am lacking the leg warmers!!

Hmmm...I might be onto something!
Here's to your health!
