If you have never listened to He is We...

Do it.

I adore them

(also thanks mom and dad for my itouch)

Let me riddle you a ditty, it's just an itty bitty, little thing on my mind.

About a boy and a girl, trying to take on the world one kiss at a time.

Now the funny thing about, ain't a story without it, but the story is mine.

And I wish you could say, that it ended just fine.

We all want to know, how it ends.

Oh, happily ever after, wouldn't you know, wouldn't you know.

Oh, skip to the ending, who'd like to know, I'd like to know.

Author of the moment, can you tell me, do I end up, do I end up happy?

Inhale, breathe steady, exhale, like you're ready, if you're ready or not.

Just a boy and a girl trying to take on the world, and we want to get caught.

In the middle of a very happy ending, let's see what we've got, let's give it a shot.

Let's give it a shot.

We all have a story to tell.

Whether we whisper or yell.

We all have a story, of adolescence and all it's glory.

Santa knows me far too well.

A wallet, i needed one,

but even better a purple wallet.

"I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you"

"Life's greatest happiness is to be convinced we are loved." ~Victor Hugo

Welcome to an owatchirby party.

They are the best.

Here's how it works.

McKenna, Coleman, Me

First everyone comes.

and we take a million and a half pictures, like we haven't seen each other in years,

even though we see each other like weekly.

Emme loves me you can tell.

Me and Evan are cousins.

So we open PJ's on christmas eve...

And I love his Mom, Aunt Col.

We try to take pictures...

Evan ruins that.

"Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house

Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.

The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,

In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there."

Here is how my day went today:

I went to young women's to make luminaries... that was fun and i was so helpful.



see...

i got the baby and got him to sleep...

helpful right?

then i went to my sister's white elephant party. it was fun.

here's a little bit of what happened.



evan got a really nice present... you will see it later



diana got harry potter... disc 2



lexi got chewy lifesavers



ben got cookies... and yelled "what?" at me a lot



moses/brian got magnetic rocks





 

i stole evan's really nice present





lauren got a christmas tree hat and summer got a penguin cookie jar

 

Lexi had to show brian what you do with the rocks

palmer got chocolate scented bath soap
(to help him get over his ex boyfriend)



then evan got a raccoon pillow (and none of his pictures will do the right way)

and lauren stole it

so he ended up with the hat

i don't know her... but she got a nascar photo album

and tessa took the chocolate bath soap

brock wore the nice glasses that light up (setting 6 is the best)
and the hat and took the nascar book

yeah that is what happens at my sister's parties...

luckily there were no chickens this year.

also, take note at how long my hair was and how blonde... yeah that is weird.

"We do not grow absolutely, chronologically. We grow sometimes in one dimension, and not in another; unevenly. We grow partially. We are relative. We are mature in one realm, childish in another. The past, present, and future mingle and pull us backward, forward, or fix us in the present. We are made up of layers, cells, constellations.” ~ Anais Nin

345. December 11, 2010

See these two cute boys.

I took them to see santa and to see a movie.

not that coleman stayed for the whole movie...

but it is so cool when people at macey's tell you your kids look just like you... yeah that is awesome.

Also it is awesome when santa's son comes up and starts yelling, "daddy daddy i can't find mommy."

wait to go kid.

this one time these people threw a party at work.

that was their deposit.

first of that is a freaking ton for a work party.

secondly, who puts a deposit down with 57 cents in it?

3rd... if you are putting this much money down... can't you afford to tip us?

this is how i drive to school (and sometimes home from school).

everyday,

as soon as my car is warm.

the heat is all the way up and it is going full blast.

kellen and kiley probably hate it, but guess what

it is my car... and i'm cold.
