Memorial Day Weekend!!

So the weekend started out with a yard sale on Saturday. . .

My friend Christelle and I organized an apartment complex yard sale that turned out pretty good. I sold just about everything except 10 or so clothing items. It was actually pretty fun being able to spend some time outside. . . . . . or so I thought. After eight hours of sun on this white body (i.e. scalp, forehead, nose, neck, and shoulders), I came away looking like a blotchy tomato.:) Apparently I missed those places with the sunscreen! Oops! Other than looking like the perfect candidate for Head & Shoulders all is well.

On Monday we were invited to a BBQ at a ward friend's house.

The hosts were very gracious and the food was excellent! It was nice to get out and do something! We have a lot of great people in our ward here who are all just trying to survive the small town life.:)

- The host Angie and her little girl Chloe (who often cries when I try to talk to her). Most kids like me and I'm not quite sure why she doesn't feel the same.:)

These are our friends Tyler & Christelle who live in an apartment beneath us and are sadly moving this next weekend. :( We'll miss them. We've had movie nights & Sunday BBQ's with them and asked many favors of them over this past year that we've lived here. (Can you believe it's already been a year?? Crazy!!)

Okay, this picture is a classic "couple" pose but it doesn't really portray our relationship very well. . . . . . .

Now this next picture on the other hand. . . . . . .

. . . . . . Now that's more like it! :)

(I thought this was a great candid. Bryce was trying to grab my hand so we could do an "engagement pose" and I was having none of it!)

Anyway- - after the BBQ that evening we, along with 2 other couples, went to see Night at the Museum 2, which was really good by the way! It was even better than the first one.

So all in all a great weekend!

Another Mom & Me Shopping Spree!

Laura and Brittany strike again!!. . . . . .

The shopping mall that is!:)

* * *

Oh we LOVE LOVE LOVE to shop and those of you that know us know how true that is.:)
We spent 4 days in Salt Lake City last week with my grandparents while my grandpa received daily radiation treatments. We set aside the mornings and early afternoons for my grandparents and the rest of the day for shopping!:)

* * *

Oh we did some damage, let me tell you!

This cute outfit is a conglomeration of the first day's purchases.:)

We hit the jackpot at this awesome store- - FOREVER 21
This store is huge! We spent 3 hours in there and tried on nearly 50 shirts EACH.:)

It was definitely the highlight of our week of shopping!

Those of you who haven't been in this store are totally missing out!

We loved it!

* * *

Oh how I love opening up my closet and having new clothes to choose from.

What a great feeling!:)

"I'll miss you Forever 21........until next time.":)

*Happy Mother's Day!*

My mom & dad made the long journey to Lovelock this weekend so I was able to spend Mother's Day with my mommy.:)

I love to give gifts and cook so it was a fun day for mom . . . .and me!

My mom is one in a million! I love her tons! And she obviously did a spectacular job raising me.:)

Happy Mother's Day to my beautiful mom and my beautiful mother-in-law. . . .who I'll get to see this week!

Come to think of it. . . . . Happy Mother's Day to all you mommy's out there!:)

Have I Ever Mentioned. . . . .

How much I love Scentsy?!

* * *

I finally had an open house Scentsy Party last week and had so much fun!

With hours of preparation and large amounts of worrying about a good "turn out" it was a little stressful. I ended up having people here during the whole 3 hours and even booked another party! It turned out great!! Scentsy pretty much sales itself but it's still fun getting people excited about it. And because of my love of organizing, I completely enjoyed the whole process. . . from entering in the order to separating it when it arrived at my house. Fun, Fun, Fun stuff!!!

Scentsy has been coming up with some really pretty warmers! They're even more awesome in person! Check out May's warmer of the month!!

I'd really love to have a Scentsy party in Blanding at my mom's house sometime this summer but I'd like to get an idea of how many of you Blanding ladies would be interested in coming. Leave me a comment and let me know. Anyone else want to host a Scentsy Party and earn lots of free Scentsy product?? And P.S.- - All party orders have
