year 19 of bw.

beachweek09

i know im a little bit behind on blogging but im back to catch up. sooooo, everybody knows beach week is a family tradition and we go every year with the bryan, hydes and pews to Silverstrand, Beach. This past year was our 19th year...yeahh buddy. another wonderous week at the beach :]

i am a firm believer....

that I have the best job in the world.

Let me explain....

while the rest of the world has to wake up & get ready for work, me on the other hand literally rolls out of bed. this means, hair unbrushed, scrubby clothes, and no make up.

again. I get to spend my day with three ADORABLE little people. Annie, Kate,& Meg. this means no crazy bosses, no mean co-workers, and thirdly no customers to constantly please.

sounds great huh? dont worry it gets better...

while everyone else is constantly on their best behavior, I am over here acting like a kid, eating tons of doritos with meg, getting caught up with the disney channel, painting nails, running through the sprinklers and squeezing in a good book when I get the chance.

I bet your jealous huh? Don't worry- i would be too :]

kate took this picture of annie...pretty classic!

the other day when running through the sprinklers kate looked at me really seriously and said, "lala- do you want me to take off my goggles so you can see my beautiful brown eyes?" haha those are some beautiful brown eyes if i do say so Kate!!

one of my all time favorites!

kates silly face. personally i think she looks gorgeous in this picture as well!

sooo stinkin cute!

so I only going to post one of these put they were all too great so I posted them all! this is them trying to do a kissy face...hahaha

kissy face again. not sure what meg was doing with the hands but hey it works!! check the nuggets...we have those basically everyday- what a hit!

silly faces. they personally love to pull on their faces haha

this was annie and kate trying to pull a "meg" smile. haha

see what i mean by the "meg" smile? hahah 

love them!

haha their eyes GLUED to the tv..and when I say glued...i mean GLUED!

so for all of you who dont know this- meg LOVES to sing...and her favorite song to sing is called chocolate chips but we had just recently got out of the bath so we switched the words to bubble bath.... ps the string cheese at the beginning was priceless

see for yourself :]

liiife as of late

this summer really has been a great one and although I'm a blogging slacker- I thought a couple pictures might get me back up to date just a bit. 

So here's a sneak peak of my life behind the scenes....

its really exciting, so brace yourself.

me & zach on the boat! oh how i love the next day "soreness" - as i call it.

on the way up to go boating these little ones fell asleep. I was talking to Nick and I turned around to ask Zach a question and my eyes landed upon these cute little sight. I hurried and grabbed my camera- I couldnt pass up this picture perfect moment :]

One of the kiddies favorite thing to do is to take my camera and snap shots- so the other day when I was going through my camera I came upon this picture that Annie captured and my heart melted a lil bit. 

Oh how I love these two. Meg makes me so happy & so does being with Papa

Grandpa Ed's birthday party...we struggled  a little bit with getting everyone to look at the camera but I give an A+  to: meg, dad, and nomers. A- to Parker...hes just missing his cute little smile....and for the others, well were just gonna have to give them an E for effort! at least they are smiling still!

best fourth of july right here! the jonas brothers were so close it was like I could see them looking into my eyes. haha kidding but it seriously was a FUN FUN FUN night!!

me and zachary getting pumped for the JoBros. & cute little mom in the back is sooo cute that I didnt even want to crop her out!

stadium of fire!!

loving every minute of it!!

dont let this picture fool you. so yes somehow i got in charge of watching the hamburgers- bad bad idea whoevers it was. i scalded them. so unless you want like burnt burgers- dont have me bbq them! however, i did PERFECT the hotdogs!! 

getting caught up....

I thought I would start with the biggest event that has happened this summer & to be honest, nothing will top it. On June 25, 2009- my best friend RACHEL was married to Braden Brown in the SLC temple.  Talk about crazy, I never thought I would live to see the day when one of my friends actually tied the knot.  BUT- it happened and I am so happy for the cute little couple and give them my besttttt wishes :] LOVE YOU RACHIE

have i been? yeah im officially THEE worst blogger. how many times have i said that by the way? probably enough.  well its true.  school has been breathing down my neck like its no bodys business and i guess my blog hasnt really been on the top of my list.  but now im sitting here, watching the jazz game with zach (kinda not really watching) and i thought to myself....wow its about time that update that blog of mine.  so here i am.  its been months litteraly... wow where to start. February: had an amazing valentines. zach was too sweet and we had a fun day together. then his birthday was the next week and we went up to salt lake so we could eat at our very favorite restaurant- asain star! (i recommend you go if you havent- walnut shrimp..mmmm!) 

March: a bunch of my friends headed off for the best vacation in the

 world!! aah mexico :] it was wonderful and  i think back to it everyday and get depressed.  i would go back in a heart beat, it was a week of pure bliss. (thanks mom and dad!!!!) then the week we got home was probably the most depressing week of m

y life. sat on my bed every day after school. had a couple melt downs...but got back on my feet a couple weeks later hahaa. been back to salt lake a couple times and thats really all i can think of for that month.

April: been super busy with school....its a joke really. just been enjoying my last month here. kinda depressing! but school is about all i do. so exciting i know...

now: still april. consumed with school...i eat, drink, and breathe homework.  it tastes disgusting by the way.. SO READY FOR SUMMER. the weather is amazing here in st. george though. 90 degrees at the pool today.

 as much as i want to go home- i am really going to miss it here. i think ill cry the whole ride home. i love my apartment and is gonna be tough to compete with it in the future. 

future: dont know what im doing with my life. or with the summer in that fact. all i know is im ready for a break and my best friend Rachel Hyde is getting married in  June!! sooo crazy but excting!! 

welp thats all...heres a hundred pictures to recap my last couple months here in beautiful saint georgeous!!
