Pure Randomness....

#1 I like to make up words. When it suits and if there is no other available word I feel that I should be able to come up with something that will satisfy my need for self expression....i.e. I know "randomness" isn't real but I will continue to use it. ;)

#2 I am going back to the gym. My gym buddy moved and I ended up taking a vacation that I have regretted since. Or should I say my body has regretted it since..... I am vowing to get back on the wagon. After all I have to take a new license picture next month and I don't want to be stuck "losing" my i.d. until I get a good one.

#3 I am seriously embarrassed by myself when I think of how I use to act in high school. I know it was ages ago but I feel like I need to take out some kind of ad in the paper to say..."sorry I was an idiot and thought I was awesome when really I do believe I was a bit of a geek." Thank goodness I finally grew up....kind of.

#4 I would love to have a family picture taken. Do any of you know someone good who can work with a girl on a budget? We have not taken a family picture since the babies were 6 months old and I didn't love them anyway. I keep telling myself that I will take the kids pictures myself since there are some really fabulous places up here but it is hard to do by yourself. Plus I am dying for one of those sassy Facebook pictures that everyone has and if it needs to be photoshopped so I look 50 lbs. thinner so be it. :) In fact I might pay extra for that. *wink, wink*

#5 Sleep is so overrated. I totally should be snoozing right now and will probably wish that I did tomorrow but alas I am a night owl and have never quite appreciated the whole "early to bed, early to rise" thing.

#6 Emma says funny things. The other day we were driving down a busy street when I noticed a small dog crossing the road. It had crossed our lane and was going towards oncoming traffic. I had slowed down and saw a car barreling for the dog and not even slowing down. I honked my horn and luckily startled the dog or else it would be in Heaven right now. After it safely crossed the street we pressed on and Emma said, "Mommy, that dog wasn't using it's manners. It should know that it shouldn't be in the street." haha Now if I could just get HER to use HER manners. :)

#7 I have a serious weakness for Netflix. During my lunch break (which I deem to be whenever the kids are taking a nap) I do layouts for my creative teams and while I work I love to have something on in the background. Every day I get sucked into these different shows. Sometimes I love it and other times I can't even watch the whole thing and end up cutting it short and picking something new. It doesn't really matter what genre...although I prefer romantic comedies...and musicals...and documentaries. Okay, pretty much anything that isn't gross, spooky, or inappropriate...I try to keep the smut to a minimum. I don't want those kinds of images swimming around in my mind. :)

#8 I have run out of random things....guess I am going to have to make a list. Oh there is another random thing. I am a serious list maker. If I am ever trying to plan or coordinate anything there will be a list. I may make it and misplace it and then make it again only to possibly not use it but the making is still fun and I LOVE crossing things off the list.

Well, until another day when I either have fun new pictures or more random things to share. Hope all is well with you and yours.

You asked if there was anyone we knew that took pictures... This is my friend Jena's blog: http://www.jenahendryphotography.blogspot.com/

I think her prices are pretty reasonable for good photography. Also, Mysha Denson in the ward does pictures too!
