Humming Bird Haven

     Ok so now I totally want a Humming bird as a pet!! These things are so dang cute!!! My in-laws have these two nectar humming bird feeders in the front of their yard, and the humming birds come everyday around the same time. I don't know how anyone could be unhappy with these little ones flying around :)

SugarLand

     The Sugarland Concert was amazing!! We all had a blast. We all danced like we were crazy and sang the songs at the top of our lungs and Laughed ourselves crazy!! Good times :)

When you buy the water at Usana they take away your cap (only on some nights) So you don't throw the cap at the stage?? Apparently they like some performers then others. Not to mention we were on the lawn seats and there is no what any of us could throw the caps that far.

Yay for rainbows. We got sprinkled on a little bit but it ended up being perfect weather and night!

David and me again.And notice the Height difference...

     At the end of the concert Sugarland preformed a song about love. It was dedicated  to the people who died in the accident in Indianapolis. 20 minutes before Sugarland was supposed to get on the stage the stage collapsed   Killing 5 people and injuring many. It was a horrible accident but touching that Sugarland wanted to honor the people.

    There was also Drunk people every where!! I mean seriously every where you looked people were dancing or attempting to dance... ( although people probably thought I was drunk because of my dancing ha-ha). There where a lot of people drinking beer with oranges in it. I was curious so I asked a Lady if  it made it taste better. Her response was "yes!! It makes the beer tolerable!" What the heck?! Why do people drink something so gross? Are you so desperate to make a fool out of yourself you will drink a nasty drink? I mean really? 

Stuff a Bag

     I got 6 Mod Bod shirts for....$15.00. Yup  that's right $15.00 bucks!! Mod Bod had a sale where you got these little bag and if you could stuff it and zip tie it shut you only paid $15 for it!! Sweet deal and I am so glad my awesome sister in-law Nichole told me all about it!!

Jennifer's Baby Shower

     We had Jennifer's baby shower today! It was a  success and we had a great turn out. I am glad to be able to be apart of it. Jennifer will truly be an amazing mother and Joey an awesome dad. So excited for them :)

Little treats to take home "cry baby" gumballs.

Button guessing game was a hit. I thought of it and hope everyone would like it and they seemed to :) The winner received a $10.00 gift card to hobby lobby. The closest guess was 724 and the actually number of buttons? 723!! Mollie Lyon was the lucky winner.  With one off she is pretty amazing. Though she picked the number because its Sawyer (her little boy's) B-day. How cute huh? It took me forever to count all the buttons. I kept messing up and would feel guilty (yes little things like this make me feel guilty just ask my mom or husband) So I would have to re-start counting all over again. Clayton kept telling me just to pick a random number and I couldn't do it :) 

Jen's Diaper Cake

Little Jillian (Whitney and James Houlin's little one) So flippin cute!

     Sadly I didn't get very many pictures.I know SO NOT LIKE ME!! but all in all it was so fun and Jen got a lot of adorable things for Brynlee :)

My name is Meghan, And I'm an addict

     My name is Meghan, and I am a addict. I seriously have some issues. This is bird cage number four!!! I have only bought three. My wonderful sister in law Jenn gave me my third one so I guess it's not to bad right?? I feel like I am going to be to the CRAZY old cat lady but only its not cats its bird cages. Though bird cages are cute and don't smell or shed hair. So my husband should be glad its not a cat obsession right? I doubt he will buy that... He is out of town this weekend so I am curious to see how long it takes for him to notice my new addition to the collection. 

Striving to be a "HOKE"

     I just watched Driving Miss Daisy for the first time today. Wow how could I never seen this before. I think  my emotions are running high but wow!! I was angry, teared up, smiling all sorts of feelings. It truly amazes me how people could have treated people the way they did and how some people still do to this day! I mean honestly the color of our skin in NO way reflects who we are inside. Nor does it set us up to be any certain way. It boggles my mind how that can matter so much to people. 

     There is one scene where two officers stop Miss Daisy and Hoke and accuse Hoke of mischief. The call him Boy and that just made me so mad!! He had to be at least 20 years older then the two men in the movie and the lack of disrespect was phenomenal! I just wanted to reach through the T.V. and slap those men (yes I know its just a movie). It breaks my heart to think what people went through back then. 

     When people think of racism they typically think of whites vs. black though it goes both ways and TRULY that is the saddest thing. Aren't we all Daughters and Sons of a Heavenly Father? So if your black,white, orange or polka dots who gives a CRAP?! It doesn't matter in fact who cares? Its not the color of your skin that defines you, no its the insides that counts!! 

     The last scene of the movie is where Daisy is in a rest home, its Thanksgiving and Hoke comes to visit her. She tries and fails to eat her pumpkin pie...and Hoke takes the fork from her and proceeds to feed her...wow. The amazing thing is through out the movie Daisy doesn't treat Hoke the best, though I think its more to do with stubbornness then racism but he keeps helping her no matter what she does or says. Its true love and friendship that allows people like Hoke in real life to act the way he did.

     Hoke and Daisy relationship reminds me of Heavenly Father and my own relationship. Even when I wasn't following or when I had faltered He never gave up on me NOT once he was always there with a helping hand and loving heart. I know I can be better at being a "HOKE" and will strive to do so. Funny though I didn't intend for this post to turn into a testimony but i'm going to any way ;) 

     I know that My Savior and Heavenly Father love me. I know that they have been with me my whole life in every turn every up and down. I know the power of the True gospel. I have seen it more times then I can count in my life. I am so grateful for a young Joesph Smith who had the courage and the strength the bring forth the One and Only Gospel. With out him we would be Truly lost today. I am so honored and blessed to be apart of this amazing work and I am so proud to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Amen.

     This movie is now one of my favorites! The love that is between the friends in the end is so deep, it melts my heart. 

Diaper Cakes

     So this is my first Diaper cake. I think I am going to start selling them. So if you know if any one who wants a diaper cake for a baby shower or gift for a new mother to be let me know ;) prices will depend on size and style :)

Girls best Friend

     Medicine and Chocolate! :D bliss...when the cramps are manageable Pamprin is wonderful and when does chocolate not help :) After the first day or two when the cramps ease up a bit Pamprin helps me get through the day and make me  some what functional. Yay for modern medicine :)

Once again..

     On Friday I started my cycle again...I was devastated. Like a mentioned in my earlier post about the dream of having twins, I was hoping that my dream came true. Though of course there is still the chance I could have twins and will eventually get pregnant in that moment when I started I tend to lose hope for a little while. So in attempt to cheer me up Clayton and I went to Smart Cookie in american fork. The cookies are amazing!! Clayton had already took one before I could get the picture... We also got a Italian (kiwi) cream soda yummy!!! Excuse the goofy picture of my self ha-ha!! We also watched Rio which was super cute!

    This cycle as been worse then normal. I am in a lot of pain. On top of the normal cramping I have a killer head ache and Nausea from HECK. I go to the doctor on Thursday!! So hopefully they can figure all this stuff our so A) I can stop having these awful cycles and B) hopefully be able to add to our family soon :)

Warm Fuzzy's

     Yesterday made my day. First of all you know when you get ready for the day and you know you don't look bad nor amazing? Well that was my day, I didn't think I was all dolled up or anything. A few people around me seemed to think so though and it made my whole day :) here is how it went...

     So my car is in the shop :( but that's another story, but the reason I tell you this is because my sweet 16 year old brother Tucker has been picking me up and dropping me off at work this week. First of all how many of you can say you have a SWEET 16 year old brother or know of a sweet 16 year old person? Well I know I wasn't one so I am glad my parents get at least one sweet 16 :) Any ways the conversation went a little like this...

Tucker: "What's the occasion?"
Me: "What do you mean?"
Tucker: "You look very pretty today!"
Me (out loud): "Oh thank you!"
Me (in my head): AWE HE IS SO STINKING SWEET!!!

    Then when I got to work a sweet heart name Julie asked me if I was leaving early from work today. I respond with a No and a confused look. She the responded with "You just look so cute!!"

    These two just made my day and filled me with Warm Fuzzy's.

Humphry

This little guy flew into my work today isn't he cute? HA NOT I was acting all tuff then I got up close to take this picture and SCREAMED LIKE A BANSHEE when it fluttered  his delicate NO flapped his ginormous wings. :)

Lightly Toasted...NOT

     My poor husband... I feel awful for him. He was out on the water for several hours on Saturday and got extremely burnt. He has been in so much pain! Luckily it's starting to fade though looking at the burn you wouldn't notice, and sadly this picture doesn't do his burn justice....Its a lot worse in person...poor guy. Although I did tell him to put sunscreen on but he didn't. Though i'm not the I told you so type ;)

Cabin Fever

     This last weekend we went to Kyle's and Kristens Family Cabin. It was a Blast! We played games, watched movies, fished, boating/tubing, hike and just realxed and had fun!!

OH CRAP!!!

     So I walk out to our living room this morning to find....

     At first I thought that Pumpkin (my mouse) had just pulled the bedding bag into her cage and broke the bag open. HA I WISH!! No to my surprise she had escaped. I frantically searched the cage hoping she was just hiding like normal!! NO SHE WASN'T ANYWHERE!! I started freaking out because A) Clayton hates  pumpkin and would be upset. B) SHE COULD BE ANYWHERE!!! So I started to move the bag to clean it up and the bag JUMPS! To my relief I realize she is right there and I take a sigh of relief. Then I remember she is freaking fast and doesn't like to to be held at all! So how am I going to get her back? I start screaming for Cal (my cousin, we live above their garage) He luckily runs up and catches her!! Not before of course she jumps I scream and Cal says " Your scared of your own mouse?" Sad I am because she won't let me hold her. I mean I'm  not really scared of her I am just not used to her!! OH my goodness!!
      So I start cleaning up the mess and to my dismay I can't fix the cage and I have to run and get a new one! grrr, So I pick up Pumpkin (in her exercise ball) and place her in the old cage so she cant run away again. I scold her and tell her she has been very naughty! HA like that will do anything.
      So I run to Pets Mart and get a new cage for $30.00. All in all I am so glad I found her before we leave to go out of town tomorrow and before Clayton go home :)

     She was being shy and didn't want her picture taken.
