I love SPRING!

The semester is finally over and we are trying to relax. I start spring classes on tuesday so we don't have much of a break, BUT it's nice to get a few days at least. Today david was sweet enough to take me to the tulip festival at thanksgiving point. It's an annual thing they have each year at these gardens where thousands of tulips and other flowers are planted and blooming. It's GORGEOUS. We wandered around found stroop waffles which I haven't had since my mission. I'm just so happy to be outside and feel the sun again.

one year older and wiser too

I am now 24 years old. I realize how young that may seem to some people, but I indeed feel old. Regardless of my age, I like to think of myself as carefree like I was when I was 15. However now I have lots of responsibilities that get in the way of me having fun. Nonetheless I managed to have a grrrreat birthday. Mom came to visit and introduced us to green smoothies. I think they're delicious and even David is willing to have one every day =) He's not much for vegetables, but when they're disguised in a drink...he's more accepting. We had dinner at PF changs and mom took me shopping for some MUCH needed clothing. (THANK YOU!) It was SOOOO wonderful to see mom again. She's gets more beautiful with age =) I hope my aging follows my mother's.

I found some OLD pictures that made me laugh and want to be a kid again.

and happy birthday to Todd too =)

april fools!!!!!!

I'm sorry I got all of you SOOOO good. Actually I'm not that sorry. I've always wanted to actually trick someone on april fools and it finally worked. Sorry to get your hopes up, but we will ACTUALLY be pregnant eventually and I'll make sure when we inform you it won't be in text message and it won't be on april fools. =)

so since all of you didn't know each other's reactions...i thought i'd share a quite motherly reaction.

From me to mom:

I'm not pregnant, April fools

Mom's response:

I was wondering! Still confused. The NOI part is true?

Me:

No mom, I'm not pregnant, april fools, like the opposite of not pregnant.

Mom:

Whew!! Honey the opposite of pregnant IS pregnant.

Me:

Yes I know. Meaning I am.

Then I called mom because she really wasn't catching on. She screamed and was laughing thinking I really was pregnant. She said "on purpose or accident" and I said on purpose...because I'm actually NOT pregnant. It took a second and she realized she was fooled. Then I laughed because she tried to cover for her saying thank goodness I wasn't pregnant and then trying to make it ok. Oh mother, I knew I'd get you the best.

Mimi screamed, chris believed me easy, jessi and dad didn't fall for it, and I totally got erin and juli's hopes up. And the funniest part to me is...none of david's family believed it, but my family gulped it up =)

I love you all, I laughed really hard this morning enjoying our prank, hope you did too =)

MUAH!

hair today gone tomorrow

I got a haircut!!!!!!!!! wooot! Since yesterday I've been through a love hate relationship with this cut. I loved it right after, then I changed my mind, I loved it again, and then hated it. But now I really love it! I got my very first hair straightener yesterday to be able to style this "do" and so far I haven't burned my hair off...so far so good! I love having a fresh haircut!

laugh out loud time

this guy is hilarious. this video has only been posted a week or something and already has 2 million views. It's a guy serenading strangers through a roulette chat and improving about them...it's so stinking funny.

run for red

this saturday was super fun! In the morning david and I helped with a local 5k run called run for red for the american red cross. We were also promoting the utah valley marathon he's on the committee for. We had fun and best of all, didn't have to run! =) Later we got a call from uncle brad and aunt shirley who were in town! they came over to visit for a while and we had a great time catching up. It was so good to see them! We love you!

i'm also debating about cutting my hair...i'm dying to. i kind of like this hair...we'll see what happens!
