whatever on a wednesday

So, how cute is my new layout?! And SO me! Polka dots and cherries...me all the way! I'm kinda in love with it. haha. So thank you Susan for the great link! :)
I'm just working away here at the office. I had my first CAR today, which is a Chiropractic Assistant's Report. Basically just go over office policies and payment plans and such. So that was good.
And I'm so so excited! My bestie, Hannah, asked me to be her maid of honor yesterday so I'm super happy! It's going to be wonderful! :)
And tomorrow it looks like we might get a snow day from work!! They're predicting like 18 inches especially on the I-25 route we take, so that could be cool! We so desperately need snow! And a day off..won't say no to that. hehe.
Anyways short random post, but happy Wednesday people! <3

another one of those catch up posts

I figure it's probably about time for another 'this is what I've been up to" post right? Yeah, probably.
So let's see. What have I been up to? Last weekend I spend a whole bunch of time with Rebecca which was super amounts of fun! She spend the night on Friday and then we had to get up at 5:30 to head to this wellness fair deal with my mom. And let me tell you, that is entirely too early for me. Especially on a Saturday. Sigh. Oh well. At the fair/expo they had these two mascots who cracked me up. They kept coming up and rubbing my head and hugging me and shoving...almost to the point of being annoying, but whatever. lol. So after that Rebecca and I headed down to Castle Rock and went to Applebees where I got ribs, so very tasty and messy. But there's the fun right? :) And then we went to Sonic and got slushies and to the grocery store for lots of candy to sneak into the theater. hehe. We saw Confessions of a Shopaholic! Such a fun girly movie. I loved it. :) So then we headed back to her house where we hung out with Chris and Elizabeth playing games and watching movies and such. I spent the night there and then went to church with them. So that was my weekend last week.
Last week was spent mostly at work. It's been busier with Lydia gone, but kind of fun in a way. I enjoy front desk work. Answering the phone, scheduling, interacting with all the patients. It's kind of neat. But I'll be happy when she's back too, I'm sure. :)
Saturday, Chris and I went for a bike ride, since it had been quite awhile since we had. It ended up being pretty windy most of the way and we rode against the wind, so it was pretty tiring. But we still rode about 13 miles I think we figured it out to be. The ride back though was so much nicer since the wind basically pushed us. But that tired me out. And my butt is kinda sore from sitting on the seat for that long. lol. So it goes. It was fun though!
My dad's been in Canada since Thursday, so our family is pretty small right now. Just the three of us. It's kinda weird actually. haha. But he gets back today, so that'll be good.
Yesterday afternoon Josiah and I spent most of our time watching tv and playing wii. We found this show called My Big Redneck Wedding and oh my goodness, the things these couples do at their weddings are so just wow. Kinda gross, weird, and just plain completely hick. I mean an armadillo cake and a wild donkey chase? Or a boxing ring and mudpit at the reception? Yep, people are crazy. Lol. It was entertaining, honestly. Might make me kinda lame and white trash but whatever. :P And I totally kicked his butt at most of the wii. Like tennis, yeah I'm awesome. hehe. Fun times.
I talked to Chris on the phone last night for like 2 1/2 hours until my phone started buzzing telling me my battery was dying. I really like his voice being the last one I hear before falling asleep. :) He's sweet.
And now I should probably get back to work. Have a wonderful Monday all!

beautiful baby girl

Yay, I have an adorable new niece! From all the pictures I've seen she's just absolutely gorgeous and perfect. I SO can't wait to meet her and hold her and just love on my new little niece! *sigh* I'm pretty envious of Lydia right now...
How I love her already! What a blessing.
Congratulations to Talia and Jeremy and sweet Emma and Annabelle!
I love them all!
xoxoxo

Yeah, it's finally me again

So I've been THE worst blogger lately, my apologies. So let's see what I've been up to in the last few weeks. The last weekend in February we drove down to Phoenix for a Chiropractic seminar. 13 hours in the car between Lydia and Josiah gets a little bit tiring after a while. haha. But they had beautiful weather down there! So Sunday afternoon when we had nothing else to do, Lydia, my mom, and I sat by the pool at the hotel reading and writing. We obviously needed the sun...Lol.
Check out those white legs.....oh my. lol
Last Thursday, some good friends of ours from South Dakota were here so we hung out with them for awhile, which was super fun! They're really quite the wonderful, sweet girls! We were incredibly silly all together and I'm sure many people thought we were ridiculous. Oh well. It was fun getting to spend just some good quality girl time without the boys. I love these girls.

We had lunch at Red Robin! Yum! Very intent on those menus...


The lovely Jenna and myself

Dearest Liz and I






Chris had been sick for a little while last week, so I hadn't seen him for 10 days! But he's feeling much better, so I got to see him last night again! Yay for that! :) I had missed him and his hugs. Because really after being at work all day, I missed coming back to my house and getting to see him and sit next to him while watching American Idol and other tv.
As you know, Lydia is leaving for California today! So while she's gone, I'm the front desk receptionist here at the office. So I'll have extra duties. Busy busy. But it'll be rather weird with her gone I think. We've never been apart for more than a day I think. We're practically inseperable twins. haha. This may be good for us. No, but I'll probably miss her. And let's be honest here, I am jealous of her. Getting to spend two weeks with our lovely sister, Talia and the nieces and especially once the new little one gets here! Sigh. I told Chris and Rebecca that I will have to be spending extra time with them so I don't go crazy.
And that's basically it. Just working everyday, which can have its interesting days and it's good days and its boring days. And this weekend, Rebecca will be spending the night and then we've got a wellness expo to go to Saturday.
And now I have stuff to do, so have a great Thursday!
