Wedding Spectacular

So this weekend we drove up to Boise Idaho for one of my oldest friends weddings. Teri grew up across the street from me so we have known each other since we were 3. So even though she moved all the way up to Idaho it wasn't going to stop me from being at her wedding.
It was a lovely wedding in a beautiful Methodist church. After the wedding came the reception at Lindy's steakhouse. John and I expected to eat a big steak but that was not what was waiting for us when we walked in......

A PIG!! Yes an entire pig just sat there looking at us...I had to put the flower in it's mouth so it wouldn't look so harsh.
But the fun was just beginning...they then began to dismember the little pig so it could feed us all...I have photographed the event for your enjoyment...

Poor piggy...this is just the beginning....


now they take the skin off.....



He just took off it's leg...

We already ate HALF THE PIG.....man it was SO tasty....I had seconds

We made short work of the delicious pig...here was all that was left

The pig was tasty but it was really about my sweet friend Teri...here we are together.



And my Johnny was there with me of course...

He is so silly........

Oh and side note...I also am lucky to have the greatest IN-LAWS as well. His parents are the greatest...they are so sweet and supportive.

WE'RE PREGNANT!!!


The day has finally come. We are officially pregnant. We have been strategically planning this pregnancy so we really were hoping it would go along as planned, and so far....so good! It seemed like it took FOREVER to get pregnant but really it happened right away so we are VERY lucky! I took a home test on Friday and it came out positive so I rushed to work and had them order a stat blood test to confirm.( this is the beauty of working for doctors =)When the blood test came back positive I started telling everyone I knew =). So we have begun the countdown....we will keep you posted on all the exciting news.
LOVE YA!

Ever wonder how long you can get away with not registering your car??

So this happened a bit ago but I forgot to tell everyone the exciting story.
As you may know I moved back here a few years ago from Texas. And I LOVE Texas. I love it so much I couldn't bring myself to get rid of my Texas license plates. I decided that I was just going to keep them until someone told me I HAD to change them.
Well people, that day came. I was driving back from a meeting at work when for no reason a cop pulls me over. There were no pleasantries just "License and Registration" to which I answered..."I don't have any registration" well he got VERY upset...and asked me "Have you REALLY not registered your car since 2006!" well no...is that bad??? " Is there any REASON you haven't resisted your car?!" Umm no reason...just lazy. I didn't want to tell him my REAL reason because I don't think he would have appreciated it very much. He was very cranky and tells me to call someone because he is impounding my car. WHAT! do you HAVE to impound it?? can't you just give me a ticket? "NO IT'S BEEN THREE YEARS!!!" WOW, who new three years was such a big deal. So I just informed him that I worked right around the corner so I would just walk! He was really bugged by me...It was weird. It's like he took personal offense to my not registering my car. Whatever...so I called my hubby John and let him know that I had finally been caught and my car was getting impounded as we speak...He wasn't that thrilled but since he knew this day was coming he just complained about how much money I was costing him and left work to come get me out of my little jam. I have to say...we had that baby out in record time. I had the thing registered and out of impound in like 2 hours... SO SUCK IT COPPER!! AND I think it ended up 6's as far as cost goes...SO THERE!! So sadly I have Utah plates now...and I will have to register the thing every freaken year. =(
So for anyone with out of state plates wondering how long they can get away with not registering them....about 3 years.. that's pretty dang good if you ask me =)

I'm a Princess!


Last Saturday I got to go to a kids carnival hosted by the Utah Kids Club. And I got to be a PRINCESS! It was SO much fun. I just walked around all day and got to give hugs to all the little kids and get my picture taken. It was so cute! As you can see they also had star wars guys for the boys to get excited about. If any of you are not members of the Utah Kids Club you need to check it out. I don't even have kids and I want to be a member. The carnival was at Wheeler Farm and they had shops and lazer tag and bounce houses and face painting and more all for 2bucks a person! It was crazy!
I had so much fun but I have to say I couldn't walk the next day because my legs hurt so bad from bending up and down a million times...those kids are just so little.

Still not preggo.....still waiting......

Pregnancy Watch 2009

Well folks....I did it. I finally got my IUD out and we are "trying". As most of you know I am a big chicken when it comes to this, but I faced my fear and I am ready! I guess almost dying and being a hospital pin cushion helped me see that if I could handle THAT, then I can handle anything. So cross your fingers and toes and join us as we hold our breath and wait for the big announcement!
