Things that make me laugh...

...that probably shouldn't

1. The sound of people falling. It kills me. Especially down the stairs. Thinking about it now makes me giggle.

2. Rachels header...the ball looked like it was 50 lbs. About decapitated the poor lass.

3. Lennon eating it hard. He falls harder than any kid I've ever known then he looks at you with the most concerned eyes. If you laugh and say he's ok he'll just pop right up. I laugh...I laugh hard.

4. Body surfing in Hawaii with Emily and Kobie and Farrah and Rachel.
Number 1 funniest: Farrah...you basically body surfed right into the beach. Remember when the waves crashed right onto the shore? We decided to give body surfing a try, you were over it after one try. After seeing you come up with your hair matted and covered in sand I lost it, it will never be erased from my mind.
Number 2 funniest: Kobie...She took a big wave, much too big for her little body and I was just a bystander, watching. Her legs trailing that wave was the funniest thing the eyes could see. They were flailing and flopping around...the poor girl was getting battered in that wave hahaha you could see it in her legs!! I laughed...I laughed hard.
Number 3 funniest: Rachel...after every wave she was stoked, and so was everyone watching!!! They got a nice peep show little did she know. Waving her arms in the air, cheering to herself, without knowing her top came down exposing her white as snow BOOBIES! Couldn't have laughed harder.
Number 4 funniest: Emily...You came out of every wave like you just fought a war. Haha I will never forget how you looked after emerging from surfing a wave. Your hair was a freaking mess, and you were trying to get the salt water out of your eyes, and probably your hair out of your eyes. That made me laugh. Good times.

5. Watching dad boogie board. Man is he a treasure. He doesn't know how, so he catches the wave after it has already broken, then he just gets nailed...hard. You can't see anything but the white foam from the wave, then after a minute he comes out gasping for air. Too funny.

6. People that think they can sing, but totally can't. Sometimes when they are with me I will actually laugh out loud. Emily, you know what I mean :).

7. When mom gets crap all over her mouth, and keeps eating because she can't feel it. She will have like a whole lettuce leaf on her chin and just talk away, little does she know, no one is listening, just staring. Haha mom you are the best.

I wish I could think of more, and I probably will once I stop writing, but thats all I got folks. Hope you all got a good laugh, because I sure did.

Living With Girls...or Gorillas?

...So I decided I would clean my room in my apartment today because it desperately needed it. The bathroom wasn't looking too good. I cleaned the bathroom, got on my hands and knees and scrubbed the floor, got all of Autumns hair off the floor, and cleaned the toilet and sink. Looks good :). Speaking of Autumns hair, it is EVERYWHERE!!! hahaha it covers the bathroom floor, there was maybe like 4 of my hairs in there, pretty gnarly.

Anyway...after I finished the bathroom I decided I would vacuum the carpet in our room, it was pretty nasty. As I was cleaning I noticed the vacuum wasn't picking up everything, just kind of making noise. So I turned it off looked at the bottom and noticed this...

Look at all of that hair!!!!! I couldn't believe my eyes!

This is after I cleaned one side of it...


This is the finished product. Haha, I found it pretty humorous, but also pretty disgusting. I guess that's what you get when A. You don't live with your mom and B. You live with lazy people.

Sorry if I grossed out anyone, I just had to share :)

Coincidence?

Coincidence: A sequence of events that although accidental seems to have been planned or arranged.

So, reading back to my old post I have come to realize that some things I am doing in my life portray everything I said in my last post. Coincidence? I don't think so.

I have been going to institute every Tuesday and Thursday mornings and it is so awesome. My teacher is the best. He is so enthusiastic and excited about the Gospel, and he loves life. He is just an all around happy guy. Lately we have been talking about Job and Solomon and those stories are amazing. I recommend every member of the church to reading the book of Job and Ecclesiastes, there is so much to learn, and some very inspiring words...Anyway, back to my original point, as I have been going to class and listening and learning I realize that everything Brother Bartholemew was teaching I had just written in my blog. Isn't that interesting?

I write about how I should appreciate all of Gods gifts and know that he is all knowing and he is the most powerful, and in the book of Job, he also learns the same thing. In a much harsher way, I might add, boils he has to scrape off his body and so on and so forth.

Also the book of Ecclesiastes it mainly talks about how we should focus on eternal things in life. And in the beginning of the third chapter it talks about "seasons" and how each season comes and goes and how we should grow from the "season" we are in and that each season is temporary. Maybe you had to be a part of class, so I hope you understand what I am talking about. Seasons can be taken as trials or as good times in our lives, each one is temporary, whether we like it or not, but we need to be prepared regardless to face what is coming next. We need to learn from the "season" we are in and be ready for the next "season" to come.

I found that message to be pretty powerful and very much needed in my life. God does answer prayers, and I consider mine answered. The Gospel is the best!

Appreciation

I love the mountains
I love babies and kids
I love thinking about my future family
I love my family
I love thinking about my aunt Becca's emotional hug she gave me
I love learning about the Gospel
I love feeling the spirit
I love my mom and dad
I love the spiritual moments I share with my mom in church
I love Dr. Pepper
I love the sun
I love flip flops
I love laughing, hard

Sometimes I get so caught up in the negativity in life that I forget all the things I have that makes me happy. I get discouraged, often, and it's not good. I know some of my posts have been depressing but writing helps me express myself and get things off my chest. Also, just looking around at all the things God has created for us is truly amazing. Just the opportunity to witness a new life enter this world is a miracle in and of itself. The mountains are so beautiful. We are so lucky to be able to look at those everyday and see the changes they go through throughout the year.

I guess appreciation is the key word here in this post. Life is good, life is hard, and life is supposed to be enjoyed.

Sorry I'm so serious all the time, but these are reminders to me that I shouldn't forget. and I shouldn't be discouraged because I have such a good life.

Thanks to everyone who helps me realize that. I love you all.
