Merry Christmas! 12.25.2010

Merry Christmas! My holidays have been amazing this year!

Today is Christmas, and we had a wonderful day! I'm so very grateful for my loving and caring family. Here are just a bunch of random pics from this morning. Happy Holidays everyone!

Thanks for being a part of my life and for all the love and support! <3

Turkey Day 2010!

So on Thanksgiving we had our annual family lunch with the Noakes'. My uncle Craig came up to me and asked why I was taking pictures. I had to bite my tongue from laughing. I said "uh..for memories." But really, what kind of question is that? I ALWAYS take pictures at my family events. OH! Maybe he heard the rumor that I suck at blogging?? That would make sense! LOL Why do I take so many pics if I always neglect to post them on my blog!? Haha, JK I know he doesn't read my blog but it cracked me up that he had to question why I'd be taking photos at a family holiday event. So having said that, here's some of the pics!

Thanksgiving 11/25/2010:

  

 And yes, I did make fun of Bryan for still doing "bunny ears" after 1995 :) And he does it in every pic I have of him! :)

Bobby and Jarren playing pool...or trying. Jarr makes up his own rules to everything he does :) Its adorable

My momma kicked my TR@$H at air hockey!!

 Jarren was the hit of the day. He cracks me UP!

 Beautiful Jamie and daughter Myrrie! I can't believe how big she's getting! (And No, Jamie, I'm not talking about you :P ) LOL

 

And of course the 2 best Thanksgiving traditions!!

1) Reading the Black Friday newspaper ads and....

 2) Eating olives off my fingers! Traditionnnnnn! TRADITION! :)

 Happy Holidays Everyone! And NOTE to Craig: I will continue taking pictures at other family events so be prepared at Christmas :P

2010 Rundown...

I know my 2009 blog sucked but I was worried it would freeze so I wanted to keep it simple! So here are a few things that happened in 2010!

Colton turned 1!

Then I got my first tattoo!

Then my babygirl Myrrie turned 1!

2010 has been such a great year! I Spent 9 months at a place called Orbit Medical. I just recently started a new job at University Medical Billing. Things have been great and I look forward to see what the future has in store!

2009 Rundown!

YES, I am aware that it has been nearly 2 years since I posted a blog. 591 days to be exact! About a year ago I spent 4 hours on my blog but my computer froze every single time I tried. I've tried many times since to post that blog but the computer still always froze. SO I've decided to finally just start a new blog but I'll be skipping most events of the last 2 years and focus on the big ones!

Ok, the two biggest events of 2009 were the births of my nephew Colton Scott:

And my beautiful neice Myrrie Annelie!

In 2009 I also finally cut off all my hair!

Also of Course one of the biggest events of 2009 was the first Christmas with the two newborns

 For Christmas, I made each of the kids a blanket!

Countdown....

Custom Countdowns & MySpace Layouts

Holiday Festivities!

So...its 2009! And yes...they call me "Captain Obvious". :) Its my nickname. Things with Phil haven't gotten any better. If anything they've gotten much worse. However, I am not going to talk about him during this post. Its been a craaaazzzy month! Of course Christmas, parties, New Years, Weddings, and I went on a road trip. So here's whats been up!

At the begining of December, we had our work Christmas party. I used my Christmas bonus check to get my hair did! I chopped off about 10 inches of hair. :-S Here are some of my photo memories. (Some of these were taken with my cell phone so I apologize for bad quality).

I took a few "before" pics to be able to compare differences. Most people had no idea how long my hair is. I cut 10 inches! Thats so much hair! I feel so naked without my hair. Here are my before pics:

It was about to the bottom of my butt:

Here is a pic of my hair on the floor. I know it doesnt look like 10 inches, but she cut more after the dye was done.

I make tin foil look GOOD! LOL

And here is an "after" pic. This was the 2nd day when I was attempting to figure out how to do my hair now that I have some layers and long bangs. I still havent quite figured out what I'm doing with it. Its been quite the change for me. I do love the color though!



Another small event at the begining of December was I got to meet up with my best friend from high school that I havent seen in forever! He took me out on a REAL date! I mean, he actually paid for dinner and everything! And then the silly boy made me watch Kung Fu Panda at a park in his car...even though it was freezing outside and the car was turned off. (And I promise, all we did was watch a movie! :-P )

Here is me and Brad back in 2001 when we were seniors. This one is Senior Prom:

This one was taken at my sisters wedding:


And here we are in 2009 :) I love this guy!

Then of course we had Christmas. Sadly, I didn't take harldy any pics! I was kinda preoccupied with my AWESOME iPod touch!

Here are a few random pics of family on Christmas Eve:

The Tompsons:

Christmas Eve is my aunt Cha's Birthday, so Craig gave her birthday spankings!

Tony, Jenny & Jesse

On January 1st we spent the first day of our new year in a car! We drove from Salt Lake to Livermore, California to celebrate my cousins wedding. Here is some roadtrip pics! The scenery was so beautiful. It amazed me how it was like a dry dessert in some places and then snowy, and then green, then snowy again. It was bananas. I had fun though. Yay roadtrips!

I have a lot more photos of Nate's wedding that will be posted very soon! But I hope you enjoy what i've posted so far :)
