Manic Monday

It wasn't so manic.  It was actually a great day, busy, but great!  The kids actually had a fun time on our two hour bike ride.  Then I went to another wedding dress fitting.  It is coming along.  Then I cleaned this massive mess I have collected the last ten years.  Then I bought stuff for dinner and then cooked it while Reuben commuted.  It was a long day for him.  We then went to the driving range and then ate frozen yogurt.  Now, it is much too late and I must be a sleeping.  Tomorrow is bowling with the kiddos, so I am not too worried about it or about being very awake, apparently.  They seemed excited today about trying to beat their scores from last week.  I better bring some quarters to buy them sodas if they win.  I think that is expected now that I did it last week.  Good times.  

Riding on the Provo River Trail

Reuben at the driving range.

There is a baby duck somewhere in this pic.  Can you see it?

The kids found a snake on our ride.  Not my favorite but a highlight for them!

Found this letter from Kelsey Bills in my stuff.  Oh the cute little Kelsey, who is now in her 20s, weird.

A baby duck is also in this picture.

Me with my little ducks.  I must always take pictures with my mouth open.  Weird.

Looking for the perfect clip for my birdcage veil.

Found this classic of me and roommates from Utah State.  Those were fun times!

Another classic.  Morgan is always this excited to see me! This picture form eons ago proves it!

My cute brother.  I loved the memories I found while cleaning today.  What a cute kid, eh?

My roommate, Becky, and I.  We had lots of fun times at USU. Man, we were young!

Alice through T-shirts

Here are pictures of the shirts I have held on to in hopes of one day having a quilt made out of them, but I am decrapifying my world as I make room for my fiancé to move in and they are going to DI. I figure this is a good way to document them, ya know, for posterity's sake. (not that in the grand scheme of things my t-shirts are important, but whatev! Am I the only one that sometimes has to take pictures of things before getting rid of them?

I love Kelly Clarkson.  I think I have seen her live six times.

I am not a spelling champion!

When number one just isn't good enough.

From my trip to Moscow, Russia a few years ago.

Sometimes I take upside down pictures just for fun.  

Walmart special.  5 bucks.

From Steve and Barry's which no longer exists and makes me very sad.

From the Utah State Rugby days.

A softball team in Provo.  I wish I still had friends who needed players around here.  I am missing softball.

My favorite saying!

I found this hilarious in my bigger days.  Now I really am a super model! :)

This was for a party we had in Wisconsin.  I was dubbed the designated driver because of my no drinking policy.  Glad I can help the family!

A Jewel shirt.  I also love Jewel.  Only seen her live twice.

I really am.  Too bad the XL version of the t-shirt is not.

Backside of Jewel shirt.

Front of Rugby shirt. (Sometimes my blogger app on my phone bugs me.  Wish the pics would post in order.)

I love a good dam joke.  I kept saying: "This is the best dam tour I have ever been on" or "This is the best dam tour guide I have ever had," while on the tour at Hoover Dam.  I am so punny.

I do just chill with my gnomies sometimes.

This is why I stay unorganized.  I am not lazy.

I think my attitude is just right.

Don't we all?

True.

This is the best shirt.

This shirt is pretty dang lucky.  Hopefully my luck stays high without it!

A Day in Pictures.

Kids Hiking above the Y.

Me checking out Jupiter in front of the sun.

My famous I am an awesome hiker pose.

Indian Paintbrush.  (In our PC world, Native American Paintbrush)

At the top of the Y with the kiddos.  They are troopers! We are having a blast at summer school!

Rock Pile at the top of our hike.

Don't even get me started about DAMN crackers.  Too many points for a snack!

The whole group.  Taken by my awesome boss, Rosanna! She is a rockstar!

Happy Summer School!

Summer School Started today.  I actually had 7 kids in class and that is a good thing.  I was a little scared when I heard that there may be only 4.  We walked over the the Provo Bike Collective(see their website HERE).  They taught the kids how to maintain a bike and let the kids pick out bikes to get ready to ride.  Then they were able to take those bikes with us after a short safety lesson.  It was cool to take them on a little bike ride after the lesson.  We will be riding our bikes to the bowling alley tomorrow.  I think the kids enjoyed it.  I am thinking this is the easiest and most fun way to get PE credit, don't ya think?

Tonight, Reuben and I went and got our marriage license.  It was very easy and took less than five minutes.  I was very amused by the sign that was on the wall(see below).  Funny...maybe some people actually think that the license guarantees a warranty of success?  Funny!

Cute baby Quail seen at church yesterday

Utah Lake.  Went on bike ride out their today.

Me and my ducklings.  Fun adventure on bikes.

What no refunds?  No warranty?

Reuben and I at what he deems: "Our temple."  We will be married at the Mt. Timpanogos Temple on June 22nd.

Cool shot at Utah Lake
