Caleb's First Lake Trip! He loves the boat!

Happy Birthday Summer!

I just felt like saying Happy Birthday to Summer. She and I met when her family moved to Tennessee for 6 months in 1998. A few months before she moved there I had been praying for a friend, and then she showed up. We were the only 2 our age in our Ward, and were convinced we were best friends in Heaven!

This is me and Summer the last day that she went to Brentwood High School with me in December of 1998.

This is me and Summer on my 20th Birthday! I am sure we knew each other in Heaven because if it was not for Summer, I would have never gone to EFY in Idaho where I met Blakey!!! Love you Summer!

Baby Belly Laughs

It is the best thing in the world to hear Caleb laugh!!

Kiera Rocks

I'd have to say that the top 5 funniest people in the world are:

5- Jack Black

4- Jim Carey

3- Lauren Graham

2- Steve Carrel

1- Kiera Durfey

Who is Kiera Durfey you ask? Well she is the person who can make me laugh harder than anyone I have ever known. And that's saying something. After I have hung out with Kiera, I need a full night's sleep because I am so dang exhausted from laughing. My sides hurt and my eyes are full of tears of laughter. That girl is frickin funny.

Some of my favorite Kiera quotes:

"Thomas, you are a freakin STUD. I mean you are a STUD, S-T-U STUD!!!........ D."

"Todd, when he doesnt like something he has to voice it out loud and with an attitude, and he always waves his hand with each word. I mean even if it's the stupidest little thing. Like if he does not like dogs, he'd say, 'I DO NOT .. LIKE .. DOGS!!!!' "(waving hand with each word)

"Don't you guys think *Amanda has a crush on Ian??? Oh man she loves him." (*Name changed for privacy.)

I wish I had more quotes, because then I would have more of those belly laughs. Love ya Kiera, hope to see ya soon!

My Idol!

Okay, so I have seen so many American Idol predictions and I wanted to add my own!

The contestants left are Brooke, Carly, Syesha, David C., David A., and Jason. I predict that they will be kicked off in the following order before the top 3:

1- Syesha

2- Jason

3- Carly

My top 3 predictions are David Cook, David Archuletta, and Brooke White! I want Brooke to win really bad, but I think that David Cook will win, which I am also okay with. David Archuletta has the most amazing voice but he lacks confidence. Brooke is so unique, likeable, and amazing in her character, but she also seems to doubt herself at times. David Cook seems to really have it together.

5 Slightly EmbarrassingThings Few People Know About Me

I got tagged by my beloved cousin Val. Love ya Val. :) Here are my 5:

1- I played soccer for one season in 5th grade. Our team scored a grand total of 1 goal the whole season. I braided my hair perfectly to one side with a huge scrunchy on the end of it at every practice and game. The scrunchy matched my jersey. One game, a girl kicked a ball right at my face and I got a terrible bloody nose. Somehow, I did not get a drop of blood on my jersey.

2- Starting in about 4th grade, I thought I was fat. I weighed about 55 pounds (I still remember that from our fitness exams in P.E.), and I thought I was fat. I had a friend who I thought was really skinny and cute. I always felt self conscious around her because I thought, "Man, she must think I'm so fat." The weirder thing is I did not break 100 pounds until I was almost 14 years old. When I look back on pics of myself in my childhood, I was so scrawny.

3- I have hair issues. I cannot stand taking too long to do my hair. Even before I had Caleb, I was like this, but not to this extreme. Nowadays, I blow dry and style my hair maybe once every other week, if I'm lucky. Most days, I workout, wash my hair, and put it in a ponytail, braid, or leave it to dry on its own. Blah. Yet, at the same time, I do not have the courage to chop my hair off. I just know I still wont style it, and it will probably look even worse short and not styled.

4- When I was in 8th grade, I was obsessed with Hanson. I went to two of their concerts, had posters on my bulletin boards, and bought every type of BeeBop, TeenyBop, etcBop magazine that had their pictures in it. I owned cd's and movies. I even went to the extent of going to Oklahoma to meet them. Never did, though, I was too scared to knock on the door. I was obsessed. Embarrassing.

5- I have a weird extended family with 4 grandmothers (2 birth, 1 adopted, and 1 step), 2 grandfathers, 10 uncles (3 half, 3 full, and 4 adopted), three aunts (1 full and 2 adopted), and about a million cousins. I know very well all 12 of the cousins and family on my mom's side. However, I can barely even name maybe 10 of the 50 or so on my dad's side.

I tag Sarah, Lori, Summer, and Kendra!

Happy Easter!
