Lonely

Chloe is gone this entire week. It's pretty lonely without her. She talked to me for about 2 minutes on the phone yesterday and that is about it. :( I am sure that she is having a great time with her dad and his family. Boo! lol

When she is gone i guess the emptiness really gets to me. No hugs or 'I love you'. Makes it difficult to not get down. I have found myself back in my silly wishing that the Lord would just hurry up already and bless me with a super great guy. I know that I can't hurry the Lord but it sure would be nice already! lol. Even one date with a super great guy would be nice, it doesn't even have to go anywhere ! :P

The nice thing about having Chloe gone is being able to get things done and have them stay done (like the cleaning) and also the few extra minutes of sleep each morning. (very few) I also should be able to go to the Temple tomorrow. I need to see if I have enough money to go and buy a new temple dress though. At the last temple trip i was one of the supervisors in the girls locker room and my zipper ripped while getting dressed. Not fun. I know I won't have time to have anything hemmed or taken in, but I can at least get it and do the hemming later maybe. We'll see. Otherwise I just need to remember to take a few dollars and rent one.

Not much is really going on. I have a job, it pays, and that is about it. haha. I am also already getting a start on birthday and Christmas for Chloe. i haven't actually purchased anything yet, but this year ideas seem to be hard to come by. So don't ask me yet! lol. I will start putting up ideas when I have them.

Hope all is well for everyone!

Weekend in Provo

Here are some pictures of the girls playing on our trip this weekend to Provo. They had a lot of fun playing together and I am selfishly grateful that they are back in Provo for now.

Update coming soon

An update with photos of my family reunion to IL will be coming soon. Someday when I am not so exhausted and frustrated with coworkers.

For My Crazy, Crafty (in a good way) Sister In Law

Dear Trina,

It seems that your crazy craftiness is rubbing off on me. Every time that I walk into a craft store I am drawn to the fabric section, which is quite silly since I do not sew. However I find myself sorting through stacks of fat quarters looking for fun prints. Well today happened to be one of those days, and I found some cute ones. So what was I supposed to do? Buy them of course. Now I have some really cute fabric quarters and nothing to do with them. They don't all go together to make a fun cute quilt or anything. Plus the fact still remains that I do not sew. So, I have these cute fabric quarters that are yours if you desire them. See the photos below. If you do not want them I will simply return them no harm done. If you do want them I can either mail them to your temporary residence or bring them to IL and give them to you then. Please advise.

Sincerely your Crazy, Goofy, non-sewing SIL,
Gwen

4th of July Sky

These Photos are from the 4th of July. We had a nasty rainstorm at about 7:30 that lasted for an hour or so, and this is what it left behind at sunset.

5 Hours Later....

So I started uploading all the pictures last night. As you can see they are not here. The files are way to large to put on the blog. So I uploaded the entire album to www.mpix.com. I will just send a share file to everyone and it will have the option to buy the photos. It's pretty reasonable, I so far have selected 48 prints, mostly 4x6 size and several larger ones for my walls and I am only at $29. They get cheaper the more that you buy. So if you want to just buy them yourselves, or pick the photos and sizes you want them in and let me know. I have a copy of the CD that I can send if you want to download them to your digital albums (mom & dad), as long as you mail it back.

There are multiple pics of each shot because they were edited differently of the size is larger. Let me know! I am excited to keep ordering. I may have too much fun with this!

Watch for the email! Oh and if you order yourself make sure you Check "Do Not Color Correct" at the checkout. Otherwise you won't get what you are looking at.

Okay well here is one at least!
