Waiting on Twilight...

Well we procrastinated and waited til the last second to get tickets for Twilight...and well now we are finally going in like an hour. I'm very excited to see it. When I first heard about the books, I kind of thought it was going to be dumb. I don't usually like reading books about vampires...actually I don't think that I have ever read books about vampires or werewolves or anything like that. Although I love reading but I usually read books about church or romance or something where I can totally lose myself in the story. I started hearing about the Twilight books and got a little curious, so Guy bought me the first one. That was when we were living 200 miles apart, so I had a lot of time on my hands cause I didn't have to fix anyone dinner or clean up after a husband. You all know how that goes...its pretty much a full time job and then some. Anyway I loved the book and I couldn't put it down so I read it in like 3 days staying up til like one in the morning. Well I couldn't wait to read the 2nd and 3rd so I went to the library to get them. Yeah right that was what everyone else in St George had in mind so the waiting list was a mile long or maybe a little longer. I went straight to the book store and bought them. Yeah I had them read in a weeks time and Guy was wondering why I hardly called him. He had to get his update on what I was reading. He thought I was crazy, but that was okay with me all I had to do was start reading and there was Edward in the book. I could hardly wait to start the fourth one by this time, but I had to wait til it came out. Oh yeah...I got my mom to read the and them and my grandma too. They loved them too, so then we took turns on the fourth book when it finally came out. But the most ironic thing was is that my mom and grandma got tickets to the midnight showing on opening night and I didn't. Oh well here I go finally. I'll let you know how it was later.

Our Saturday drive...

Well we decided to go on one of our usual weekend drives...although we haven't done it in a while. The price of gas has kind of put a damper on going anywhere in the car besides the necessary traveling to work and that's about it. Anyway we were so excited because when we filled our car today, it only cost $32. It's about time that it doesn't cost almost $70 to fill your car for a week. Well we went for a drive and had so much fun taking pic's and just having a worry free day. We took our weiner dogs and packed a lunch and some snacks and away we went.

Well they loved looking out the window as you can see. Once when we were driving through some farms, they spotted a pheasant...which needed barked at. Yeah they wanted to get out and kill it. I didn't let them, but I did catch a pic of it...and I'm not sure what is on its face, but it was definately worth barking at.

Oh then rooney found that he could get up on the back window thing in the car. He thought that it was way cool and Dallie couldn't bug him up there. He only got up there a couple of times...it kind of bugged him that he couldn't stand up without hitting the window.

Next we came to a lake and got out to run around and freeze our butts off cause it was flippin' cold outside cause the sun was about to go down. So we took more pics and has some fun skipping rocks in the water. And there were alot of fish jumping around eating bugs. We needed a pic of both of us together, and since we never go anywhere with anyone else, we didn't have anybody to take our pic. So we gave the camera to rooney and this is the great pic that he took.

Just kidding...that's what timers on the camera are for. That is pretty much how we take most of the pics that we are both in. But anyway I thought it turned out pretty good and I wanted to try out the black and white feature on my camera. So at the end of the day, my weiner dogs were so tired that they hardly moved the rest of the night. Finally cause lately they have been such wiggle worms.

We got a little side tracked on moving day...

So we decided to have a big moving day, and get everything packed up. Well, when you get to going through all the stuff that you acquire over the years, you start to wonder what you really should keep. So I started tossing stuff out that I knew that we could live without, and the garbage can just seemed to fill up way fast. So we started filling up the truck so that we could make a trip to the local town dump. And as always, we couldn't just do something...we had to make the most of it and have some fun.

We made the trip up to the dump, and when we got there, Guy saw an old bike laying around. It was in good shape, so he started riding it around and trying to jump it over an old cake pan that was laying around. We actually got the whole thing on video, but I'll spare you and show you the pics instead. So here it is...

Oh yeah...Jetta wanted to try it too, so she started riding it around too. Guy turned the handles around so it was backwards and her legs kept hitting the handlebars. Yeah, we were being a little silly. I found a golf club and was trying to recreate the scene from the Adam Sandler movie Big Daddy...where they are at the park and they put the sticks in the trail for the roller bladers to fall over. My version is way better.

After Jetta was done goofing around and making a complete fool of herself, her and Guy talked me into taking a spin. I don't think that you ever forget how to ride a bike even after many moons of not riding. Also you don't really realize how big your butt gets until you sit on a bike seat and try to ride it around. But that's beside the point...We always figure out how to have fun even when the task at hand isn't the funnest thing ever.

Our new favorite thing...

So our new favorite thing to do is go to the park. We actually go there several times a day. But we have to wait til it gets above freezing outside before we go, so as you can see Dal and Rooney get very anxious waiting. Dal looks out the window on the couch, and Rooney looks out the window from the kitchen counter. I know a dog on the counter, but who cares when you live in a camp trailer. Any way, they are so cute with their own personalities. The park is so big...and there are so many garbage cans to pee on for Rooney. The other day we were walking down the road and it was garbage day so all the garbage cans were out, Rooney thought that he had died and gone to dog heaven. He tried to pee on every single one. I think that by the third one he was out of pee, but that didn't stop him from trying all the rest of them. Then when we got to the park, all the ducks were bedding down under the tree, and Dallie took advantage of that. She chased them til they were all in the middle of the pond...where they should be according to Dal. Then we went to the golf course to see if we could find any golf balls, but none. Rooney was very disappointed cause that is his favorite thing. He actually has quite the collection at home and in the car. So when we got back from the park, I had to have a piece of the pie that I had made the other day, and this is what I saw when I uncovered it. So apparently Rooney stepped on it when he was looking out the window. Oh well.

New cuddle place...

So my two weiner dogs have found a new place that is so fun to take naps and also its great for looking out the window. Dallie found it first, but it didn't take too long for Rooney to love it just as much. I think that Dal likes it so much because its not such a big jump. So she can definately get up there by herself and its warm to cuddle up in the pile of coats and sweaters. Silly dogs, but way cute.

Thanksgiving Blocks

This isn't the best pic, but I was very excited about it. On saturday we had a super saturday for relief society, and it was fun. They planned a lot of crafts for everyone to sign up for. I am not a very crafty person, so for me to make something this cute and have it actually turn out is a miracle. It did take me half the day to get done, but that's okay I got a lot of chit chatting done too.
