My Aunt was as close to a second mom as it could get. I remember her always wanting to help buy me dresses for my homecoming dances because she didn't have a girl of her own to buy one for. My favorite memory of her was wedding dress shopping with her and my mom. It was a special experience and got spoiled by two moms at my wedding. She was always there when you needed to talk or to ask silly questions like "how in the world do I make brown sugar soft again." I had the unique opportunity to go with my mom and cousin Jessica on Friday afternoon to dress her in her temple clothes. It was a very special experience to be able to have that alone time with her and be able to place her in her resting clothes with all of the love we had. It was very hard yesterday at her funeral but it makes me so glad to know that this is not the end. We could all just imagine the reunion of her and my grandparents. We're pretty sure my grandpa said something like "what the heck are you doing here!" but then nothing but hugs. I did have a little laugh though when I was saying my last goodbyes and looked into her casket and saw that someone put a diet coke in there. My uncle Randy (her husband) said something that I will never forget...

"I have not lost her... I know right where she is"

They have feelings too

I know all I write about is my little puppy but lets face it he really is my little child. It's been so interesting really seeing the emotions he has. He has a best friend named Roxy who is another boxer that is actually going to move in with us next week. They looooove playing with eachother and cuddling and what not. I never really did know how much he liked her until last night. Shannon and Chris (Roxy's owners who are moving in downstairs) moved some of their stuff in last night and then left. When they left Milo kept searching and searching for Roxy but couldn't find her. Jon and I were watching TV and just heard him whining downstairs and could not figure out what was going on. We came downstairs to him laying next to Shannon and Chris's stuff whining. Apparently he could smell Roxy on the stuff and missed her. All night he sat there just crying. We tried everything to get him to come upstairs, pig ears, slurpee, but all he did was just sit there and cry. We finally got him in his kennel and I woke up at 5am to him whining again. I thought maybe he had to go to the bathroom but no as soon as I opened the kennel he ran down stairs and began to whine again.

After what happened last night there is no way you can say he doesn't have feelings. Hurry up and move in Roxy you're breaking his heart!!! =)

Something always has to go wrong...

Every wedding has to have something go wrong right? As for mine Jon and I went to pick up his tux to receive a blue tux instead of his creme color that we ordered. Naturally I was historical since they weren't doing anything to accommodate their mistake and only got threatened to have the cops called on me because I was being "hostile." My friends wedding I think it was the grooms dad (is that right Shan?) the bottom of his shoe fell off that he rented! Really when else would a bottom of the shoe fall off besides a wedding right? Or perhaps the cake decorator got the dates wrong and you ended up having to get a cake from costco. Something always has to go wrong at a wedding right? Or else it just would be a wedding.... however I came across something today that beats everything I have ever heard. Take a little look...

Confession

I have to confess... yesterday I pulled out some christmas piano music and played it! I must be my mothers daughter. Not sure if I was just bored of all my other music and wanted some change; or if I'm really getting excited for Christmas... I think it's a little bit of both!

2nd thought... biggest loser last night. Horrible! Just horrible! I really didn't watch to many episodes in the beginning but then I watched one and was introduced to Tracy; aka the devil. I cannot believe this woman! She competes at every temptation = eating calories to win. Julian completely chews her out; talks with her for an hour tell her not to do it again, she says okay. Then the next day she does it again and of course Julian wants to rip her head off and says she wasted her time and then Tracy just gets all sad; what you dont think I'm worth it? DUH TRACY! you're not! You drive me nuts how you just throw people under the bus and pretend your all sad about it and bawling and when they start bawling you tell them to suck it up and make fun of them. Oooh Tracy how much I wanted you gone last night! And your team had the chance and they didn't do it! I only continue to watch this show to make sure you do not win!

I have a kid already??

Who would have known that when we bought this dog we really adopted a child? Our house is never clean since Milo has to have 20 billion of his toys out constantly. When I'm really into my show of course he has to me all up in my face wanting to play. The other day I came home from work and went to Milo's kennel to let him out and surprise! he wasn't in there. I thought well maybe Jon left him outside today... oh no he came trooting our of our bedroom. Apparently we need to child lock all our doors and the kennel now because this boy has figure out how to not only open all our doors but unlock his kennel now. Boy do we have our hands full! We are lucky in the sense that he hasn't ate any of our shoes; or furniture except for some reason he hates trees and finds it his duty to make sure all of them do not survive. He also LOOOVES to toilet paper our house. He just takes the roll and runs around everywhere in the house.
But just like a child... How could you just not adore this face???? =)

Flaming Gorge '09


Our little family went to Flaming Gorge with the Thorpes the end of August this year. We started the weekend off rafting down the river and little Milo got to come!! He just loved it!! He was actually better behaved than the little kids!! He just sat up in the front and looked at the water the whole time. What a little sweet heart!!!


















The next couple of days it was pouring rain so we had to improvise a little bit, but the sun did start to come out sooner or later! Everyone had a good laugh at me because we were all under a canopy but Milo didn't fit and was out in the rain just covered in sand and mud just shivering and came and crawled up on my lap and huddled under my towel. Poor little thing was freezing!! hah everyone laughed that they would never want a wet dog on their lap let alone a muddy one; guess it just goes to show how my little Milo is my little precious. He did love playing on the beach though.
