Cute picture of my butt~~~~!!!

I just thought ya'll wanted to see a cute picture of my butt!
I don't have any fun pictures to put on here, because no one else in the family shot any deer. So I don't think I've used this one before! This was taken up in Birch Bay Washington(I think) it's called No Mans Land, or something like that, there is a peace arch and I am now walking over to Canada. The sign says Leaving United States Border. That was an awesome trip.

I went to the Hurricane Singles ward today, it felt like I was in a college ward all over again, me, Ann and Jason were probably the oldest people there. At least it felt like it. Ann left after sacrament meeting because it was her birthday, so I followed Jason to sunday school, he was showing me all the cool stuff on his palm pilot(or at least that's what I think it was), it was so cool, I'll have to sit by him more.
I hope he doesn't think I like him and I'm following him around. I mean he's a nice guy and my parents would LOVE it if we dated, but there are so many girls out there who are crazy about him, I don't want to be just another crazy girl. Anyways, I have always wished Hurricane had a singles ward and he's the only person I really know. Everyone was like Trents age. It's a nice ward and I am going to go for a few weeks just to give it a try, I just wish more older people, my age, would go. Oh-well.
I just got back from a fireside, It was good. The fiancee of Mandy Johnson(who was killed in a plane crash by Moab) was the speaker, I went because I knew Mandy. But he is so nice. They had him and Mandy sealed to each other 2 weeks ago. I thought that was nice of him to do that. He will be sealed to her forever, whether he ever marries or not and he will be apart of the Johnson family, so thats neat, because they are a cool family.
Tomorrow is FHE at the Corn Maze at Stahli farm, I want to go, but I have no idea where it's at. Its a regional FHE, with all the singles wards in Southern Utah, I've never been there, but it sounds like fun. I could car pool with someone, but I feel so old over there. Oh-well, we'll see tomorrow night.

This week at work was so crazy. We were busy tuesday night, but the rest of the week was slow. So friday night Kale had us painting cross overs yellow. That was actually kind of fun. I was working next to Melissa, so we just talked about everything. Her family is originally from Colorado City, her grandpa is Leroy Barlow(I think, I just remember her saying he was a bishop out there), so we talked about that and future weddings, and our bosses- who are funny- we totally lost track of time. But it was fun. We never get a chance to just talk at work and have it all quiet and slow paced. Kale had to remind us that we wanted to leave at midnight at 12:30. So that was fun. Kale is a fun boss.

I'm ripping a cd and it's taking forever, like I have too many things going on or something, which I don't, the Internet is the only other thing going on! This is drive me crazy!

Deer Hunting Fun!!!!!

Ok, this picture was so funny! It cracks me up! We were at my grandmas and Emily LOVES to take pictures, I wasn't in a bad mood, I was just tired. I was ready for that day to be over with and so Emily wanted to take a picture of me so I gave her my most annoyed face that I could!
My dad got the first deer(and only one so far), it is a 2 pointer, which is pretty good. He usually settles for spikes while everyone else gets bigger stuff. So I'm proud of him for getting it!
Trent, right before we left for the deer hunt!

We really didn't get very many pictures while we were up at my grandma's for the deer hunt, because I was at the house with the kids and I'm usually the only one who takes pictures, so we waited till we got home to get any pictures of the deer.

Which, I didn't want to put any gory pictures on here, so I got the one with my dad and the horns.

We got up to my grandmas around 7 Friday night, my uncle was putting in a new water heater(the old one was like 50 years old- ok, maybe 40), so my dad helped him with that. My cousin(on the leavitt side) Kim showed up, that was cool. I was surprised to see her. So now when we talk about grandma's house, she'll know what we are talking about!

We put on Mr. Hollands Opus, hoping to get the kids asleep faster. Me and Emily slept on a couch(I didn't know it laid flat, I always thought it was a regular couch), Trent slept on the other couch, Chris and Madison slept on the floor. There are plenty of beds up at grandmas house, but the bedding never gets washed because people are hardly ever up there long enough to try it. So anyways, my aunt Linda and grandma got there around 1 am, and aunt Linda tried to sleep with grandma because she didn't know which beds were empty, and grandma was driving her crazy during the night, so aunt Linda came in the living room and curled up in a chair and slept. It was crazy, then after the deer hunters left, she slept on the couch.
I hardly slept that night(which is bad for me), every time Emily would turn she'd take the blanket with her, or she would turn and her arms and legs would be on top of me, drove me crazy. So finally I pulled the blanket out from under us and used that and let Emily use the other one. Then, I woke up when the deer hunters left, then Emily woke me up at 8, I was so tired. But I had to be responsible, so I got up, helped the kids get ready for the day. We ate breakfast then went to the park. We went back to the house so I could start making dinner(in the slow cooker), then Madison and Chris and me went to Richfield for a few hours, to Wal-mart, then KFC on the way back to Junction Madison had to go the bathroom so we stopped at Big Rock Candy Mountain, that's a cool little restaurant/gift shop. I got a magnetic bracelet that wraps around but it can also be used as a necklace because it's so long, it's really pretty. Anyways, so we got back and my aunt Ruethella was there, she just got 2007 mustang, it is HOT!!!! So she let me and aunt Linda take it out for a drive and so aunt Linda drove half way to Circleville and let me drive the rest of the way, then I drove back and I wanted to floor it so bad, my aunt said I should(it's mustang- duh), then she said "it's not flooring it until you actually touch the floor" I think I got up to 105 when I thought I should slow down! It was AWESOME!!!!!!! And my aunt Ruethella didn't care, if she did, she didn't say anything.
The deer hunters got back my dad got a 2 pointer, then they rested for a half hour then got my uncle Dave and went back up on the mountain.
So the kids were begging me to take them back to the park, so we went and played for a little while and went back to grandmas house, I was trying to get them to eat a little of our dinner, it was so good, I surprise myself sometimes. We had homemade(frozen-store bought) bread with honey butter and Golden beef and apple cider stew. It was really good. I was surprised the kids ate as much as they did, their a bunch of picky little brats.
Anyways, I was on the brink of having a panic attack all day, little things would make it worse, but I think when the deer hunters got back and they all had headaches and were tired, but they went back out, then the kids were getting nervous and that made me frustrated. So by the time the deer hunters got back I was miserable and just wanted to go home, even though I was so excited to be up at my grandmas and wanted to stay for church. And my dad wanted to stay and visit with everyone and Shellie didn't have any room for me, so I felt so bad about asking my dad to leave early. He acted like it was no big deal, but I felt bad still. So we got home around 10:30, left hung the deer up, then we all went to bed.
The Hurricanes Singles ward starts at 1 and the Bloomington singles ward got changed to 12:45, so I figured I would get plenty of sleep and go to church not tired. My cell phone alarm went off at 11:30 and I was so tired, I had a sore throat, my nose was running away from me. So I just went back to sleep.
We hung out all day sunday, my mom got home from SLC that afternoon and we just recovered from our whole weekend.
Today I woke up with some guy banging on my window. I guess we had a window cleaner here cleaning our windows, when we put down cement for the patio they got cement on my window and we've never gotten taken care of and so my window is always gross looking. That woke me up so I went up stairs and feel back to sleep on my parents bed.
The thing about having anxiety attacks is if I don't get enough sleep it makes it worse, so when I make plans to visit someone, or have something big going, I have to have PLENTY of sleep, besides this recent one, the last one I had was at the family reunion and I was puking my guts out, the one before that was before we left to go camping on Beaver Mountain. Once I get somewhere I'm usually ok, but getting there is whats hard. But since I didn't have a whole lot of sleep friday night I was miserable all day saturday, I didn't want to take too much xanax because it makes me tired and loopy, but I'd rather feel like that than sick to my stomach, but I hate having people know about it. So anyways, when I go somewhere to visit someone I tell them if I have to leave a day early or I don't feel good, it's not because I don't want to be there, it's because I'm crazy!!!!
Just kidding, I'm not crazy, or at least not a lot!

I swear I had a melt down today. Shellie had me watch Madison and Emily(they are here right now) so they could go hunting again, they took the boys. I had to make dinner because my mom comes home too tired to make anything, my dad comes home hungery but dinner isn't made. So I try to make dinner on mondays when I am home, then after going crazy with Madison and Emily, trying to get them to eat something healthy and keep them entertained, then my mom came home in a bad mood, my dad came home tired. I just felt like everyone and everything was all on me. I was going crazy.
So after we ate dinner, I got Emily and Madison to agree on a movie to watch, Nim's Island, Madison just barely lost interest in it, it's at the part where the tourists go to the island and all Nims friends are attacking them. It's a cute movie and now I've had time to calm down and relax.
Barbara's grandson(my friends Monica's mom- I talked a lot about them in my old blog) was target shooting up in Enterprise and his little brother shot him in the back with a .22, Barbara called me sunday, crying, it was in the paper on sunday and monday. I hope he's ok. It's Monica's nephew, she has been through so much lately. So I hope everything works out for Nates family.
So, this week is going to be great, work will be wonderful, I'll make WONDERFUL production, I'll get as many hours as I can, it will be the best week ever. I hope! Since all my gal pals will be back from vacation and where ever they went we will be able to hang out and have fun like always! :)
