Tiny Terror

It never ceases to amaze (and frighten) me when I come home each night to see what my tiny terror has done in my absence.

This week she:
- Dug/chewed a 7"x3" hole in my carpet - all the way to floor boards
- Figured out how to break out of her gate and run FREEEEEE through the house
- Chewed through my $50 bath mat
- Ate an entire garbage can full of paper towels and other assorted non-digestibles
- Played ball in my shower
- Left jerky bits and rawhide pieces all over my comforter
- Left a nice little present on the floor for me to clean up
- Learned she is strong enough to move the safe on top of the aforementioned hole and continued making said hole even bigger
- Licked the inside of my nose
- Chased my parent's neighbor up the street

And yet, somehow I still can't get enough of that furry little face. Go figure.

The parallels between child and puppy amaze me. Someday, you are going to be very well-equipped for motherhood. Except that you can't just leave them home alone...dang it. ;)

Jessica I can't imagine Ellie chewing through a bath mat (or the floor for that matter)!

and Kriss....that puppy does have an adorable face. At least life isn't boring.....right?

I didn't realize Ellie was so crazy either, Boyer. ;)

It's amazing what a cute face will add. :)

The First Two Weeks

Monday: I love school. Tuesday: Just hang in there, it will be worth it in the end. Wednesday: I don't love school anymore. Thursday: I must be crazy to be doing this. I'm pretty sure I'm going to die. Find a happy place. Move to happy place and forget school. Friday: Ooh - it's Friday! No classes. That's a happy place. Sunday: Last week wasn't SO bad. I can do this. I love school. Yep. That about sums it up.

Suprise! I'm Getting Married!

Stories are great. And everyone seems especially interested in this one. So, here it is. We were supposed to go to the gym Tuesday for lunch. But I got a text 20 minutes before he showed up saying he wanted to talk instead. Immediately my stomach sunk. I just knew he was going to break up with me or something horrible like that. Well, he picked me up and we started driving - I had no idea where we were going until we turned up the road by the Timpanogos temple. Then I thought - 'There are only two reasons we would be going to the temple. 1) He is going to propose or 2) He is going to break up with me and knows I can't kill him if he does it on temple grounds.' I'm morbid - I know. We got out and sat on the grass and I had to remind him he wanted to talk. He was like, 'Oh yeah. I almost forgot.' Nerd. So he started talking about our first date and the first time he knew he wanted to be with me and the things he loved about me. Then he started talking about ho...

Our Once Upon A Time

I should probably feel guilty that my blog has gone sappy...but...what can I say. Love is in the air? Well, our story is certainly a tale as old as time ... our story starts - guess where? - the singles ward! I know, I know. I said I would never be one of those people who met their future spouse in the singles ward. It always seemed a little cheesy. But...The Lord has a sense of humor. Anyway, we met in February and became casual friends. I thought he was super cool - but when we first met I was doing full-time school and work so I honestly wasn't interested in a relationship. Luckily, or sadly...the poor guy thought I was interested in someone else so he never asked me out. Fast forward a couple of months. This is where we had a little Divine Intervention...It was my Mom's birthday. Uncharacteristically, a friend and I decided to kidnap her for a girls night and go to dinner. As we were sitting there eating some super tasty food - in walked Placido. I thought, 'Hey, I...
