Toetally!

There are sooooo many things that I wanted to post about, but didn't.  And they've added up.  So I've decided that even though some might be from months (and months, and months) ago, I'm just going to throw stuff in wherever I feel like it.

Because, it's my blog and I can.

So, first on the docket...
My "Toe"tally awesome birthday! 

Where Ame-dawg showed me some "toe"riffic makeup techniques

Where we got pedicures & ate this cake made by one Jenny Frame (and I tried not to look or think about it too much),

and where I turned the big 3-TOE!

At which point, Jennifer made this face.

I know! That's how I feel about it too!

And then Rikki counted this money.

She sure likes to count money!

Raegan was there too...

Which made Jenny do this...

Yeah. Good times were had.  Thanks gals!

Reasons..Part 2

Okay. This "reasons" thing is getting old, I know. I'm sorry.
Here are the rest, so we can move on to other things.

Island Park/Yellowstone with Mike's fam. Um yeah. Lost my phone there. Which is why no one could reach me for a few weeks. (Go ahead. Just say it. I know you're shaking your head and thinking what an idiot for carrying my cell phone around Yellowstone anyway. Hey. At least I didn't drop it in the Mud Pots.) Not cool. But, thankfully, some awesome person found it and turned it into the Lost & Found. I know! Nice!

Boating on Glendale Res. That's pretty self-explanatory.

Mike's baseball games. Sadly, I have no pics. I know. I should not be allowed to call myself a wife. In my defense, I was in Mexico for most of the season. Okay, so maybe that doesn't help my case either. WELL. I never said I was perfect, people!

Hauling hay with my fam. Good times. Who doesn't love going back to the farm? There's something great about doing hard physical labor. Yeah, so maybe I did drive the tractor most of the time. But pushing that clutch in is quite a workout, you guys.

Watching Doug, Mel & B run. The best part was the mid-run diaper change. Now that is talent, my friends.

Girls' Camp. Oh Girls' Camp. Bless Girls' Camp's heart. I was the lucky gal who got called as Ward Camp Director this year. Lucky gal indeed. (Sorry, no pics.)

Everyday life. Eating. Sleeping. Working. Y'know, the usz. (That's how I've decided to spell the shortened version of "the usual". In case you were wondering.)

And Finally... I just didn't feel like it. I know. Anti-climactic, isn't it. Well, it's all I've got, amigos. It's all I've got.

Thanks for reading.

Reasons For Not Blogging. Part 1.

Though it's not the first reason, let's start with Mexico.

I spent 3 weeks there.

Learning Spanish.
Chillin' with teenagers.
Missing mi esposo. (That means husband.)


Disclaimer: My camera has issues. Therefore the number of decent photos is limited. Yes, it's infuriating.

Sweet little muchacha.

Me & the ninas.


Cofradia's volcano.


The girls liked trying on my sunglasses.



I loved having these 2 around for the first week.


Awww.


My brief, but awesome weekend at a resort in Manzanillo. Completely solo. Compliments of my way-too-awesome husband, who arranged it all for me. The only thing that would have made it better is if he had been there with me. Oh, and coconut ice cream.


Back in Cofradia. Hiking with the Becarios and Audrey.
Carlos, Noe, Francis, Ale & Audrey

My buddy, Rojelio. At the eco-park we visited.


Yeah. That's a tarantula. Just crawling across the sidewalk.


Graduation.

Cecily, Alejandra, Eliott, Me, Nina, Carlos, Molly & Audrey

Calalillies.

Me. With the Calalillies my boyfriend gave me. At least, that's what I said as I walked around town with them.

To be continued...

I'm alive.

Coming soon....


Mexico & other reasons for not blogging.

Dear Blog Readers,

Please do not give up on me.

I need a little more time.

I will be back in all my blogging glory in less than a week.... I hope.

Thank you.

Love Me

Bloggity Blah

Ok. Well, I obviously haven't been able to keep up with the blog.

Blogging is funny that way. The more things you have to blog about --- the less time you have to blog about them. Y'know, because you're out doing those things.

Or, as in my case, you DO have a LITTLE time but there's so much to blog that it's too overwhelming so you just avoid the blogsite at all costs. And spend the time on other things.

Like riding this...

Or going to this...


Or reading this...


Or running this...

aka: Top of Utah HALF Marathon

(which I have no pictures of because, well, let's be honest...when the person who takes the pictures is running 13.1 miles, you end up with no pictures)

Or holding her...

Ohhhhhhh. Congrats to Nick & Nat! Their 2nd.

Yeah, and that last one? Way, WAY better than blogging!

Filler

Yes. I know I am behind on my blogging. I know it all too well.

This will just have to do for now.

Okay. FINE. I'm a lot behind in my blogging.

But, really, it's not like the 5 people who actually read this are going to DIE if they don't hear what's happening in the life of Annie, right?

So I forgive myself.

But since I really do appreciate you 5 people, and since I know you are just waiting in anticipation to see what's going on in my life....

Life during May.

(And this is the SHORT version.)
