To make my day....

When I woke up this morning, to my surprise, there was a little note waiting for me. Clint was playing on my love for the National Treasure movies and sent me on a hunt. Valencia thought it would be funny if I had to steal the Deceleration of Independence, me not so much. It did not get quite that intense, but it sure made for a great day of anticipation and fun. This is quite the surprise from Clint. I am always complaining he is not romantic but he makes up for it in big ways like this.

 
  
 My first clue lead me here to the public library.
  
 After a little research I found the book I needed to.
Vincent did a great job on this picture.
  
  
 I found my next clue inside.
  
After I ordered my blueberry thrill I received my next clue.
 
 A stone like a queen.
  
Vincent was a great helper. He loves a good treasure hunt.
  
 What a cool little old box to find. It looked like it had been waiting for me for years.
  
 To use at our date tonight.
 
You may need these to see what awaits 
the drama, the intrigue, the character's fates
tonight's not a dream, just a chance to get out - 
we'll hear the music and the players will shout - 
the phantom awaits!
Thank you honey!
I have been giddy all day and feel like today is a great day. I can't believe how much a little thing can make you feel so loved and change how you have been feeling for a while.
This was very thought out and I think those are the best surprises.
Guys here is a challenge to do something for your wife that makes her feel special. 
We love that!

Momix

Went to see Momix dance with Becca last night, the perks of having a husband that works for the Fox. It was like modern experimental dance. Very fun! Some of it was a little out there. I call this one seduction on skis. I think it was my favorite. The tear drop big metal contraption was great. You could get really hurt by this thing. Clint said it was really heavy. It would roll over them and miss them by inches. These are the girls in the Hanes comercial with the exerise balls. It is amazing what they can do with them. All of them had amazing bodies. Maybe I need to get myself some skis so I can get some exercise. If any of you have some I could borrow, I would be happy to put a workout video together for you.



 
 
Like this one a bunch of guys rolling around with their head by each others bums. Weird! This picture is of when it got mild.


This sillouette one is way cooler than the one they did for us. Also the black light one you have to wait a  little while for it to get cool. They did a great job on the lighting it made it all so much better.

Finally I got shots of my Aprons.

 
This one I got from Amy. She did a great job and it's very flirty. It was for the Flirty Apron Swap.
Thank you Amy!

 
  
Reversible Apron from Kristina for the Sassy Apron Swap. Oh so cute! Thank you so much.

Bad!

 
I found these pictures from Becca and Steve's BBQ Dinner/ Paintball Extraordinaire.
I had such a fun time. Don't we look Bad.
  
 Becca you Rock. I didn't realize I was this much shorter than you.
  
 Clint got shot right in the chest. I had one skim my bum but never got hit, thank goodness, because Clint had some good welts.

He's Five!



Ok yes I am a little late on this. Vinny turned 5 on Saturday. How quick they grow. Yes he wore these to soccer. I had to draw the line at the superhero mask. it's just not safe.
You always are great entertainment and fun.  Love you Bud!

I was cleaning up today after a long week and found these that Vincent and I had made the other week. We found different body parts and put them all together. I love when I am able to sit down and do something even silly like this with him. It makes my day.

One of lifes little throws that I had to catch this week.

So my Appendix burst on Monday and I had to have it removed. Not what I had planned on for this week, especially with yearbook photos due this Friday and three photo shoots scheduled.


These are my Spa legs as I liked to call them. They kept the circulation going in my legs but I loved them. It was like a little massage. When I got back to my room from the surgery the guy asked how I was doing. I told him it was like being at the spa. I just loved those leg things. I obviously was still just a little loopy.
 
Chatting with Kaela on the phone. Thank you to all who called or came by to visit.  It is always nice to have people see you in the wonderful little cover they give you. No it is nice to keep your mind off the pain and just have people around. Time moves a little quicker.

 
Wonderfully thoughtful gifts I received . Flowers from Clint's work, Flowers from Lucy and Ben, and Costco pumpkin Spice muffins from The Stephens. You all rock! Oh and my cute little card from Benton. Thank you buddy!
I am doing better. Still slower and not as spunky, but better. I am sure glad it is a one time thing. I can do babies naturally but an appendix no way. At least when you have baby pains you get to come home with a cute little one. With this nothing!

General Relief Society Meeting

How blessed I feel to be a part of such a wonderful women's organization. I love these meetings and the guidance that I get from them. Most of the time there is at least one of the speakers that are there to talk directly to be( at least I feel that way). Tonight it was Pres. Uchtdorf who spoke to me. I always get that little lift that I need to get me through. I definitely feel inadequate, overwhelmed and crazy at many times. I am thankful for the insight he gave this evening.
You can listen to it here.

General Relief Society Meeting

We are not alone. Our father is there with answers, many times through others.
