Unconnected & Out of the Loop!

...Out of the Qwest loop.
My modem died last week... so no internet. Then yesterday my phone was possessed, it constantly made dialing sounds even though nothing else was plugged into the phone line and it wouldn't hang up. So I used my fully-charged-over-night cellphone to make a 5 minute phone call and it died, cause that's the way it is...
So Qwest sent me a new modem that I got yesterday, YEAY!!! And here I am.

This picture was from a few weeks ago when Ayla was taking pictures with the webcam. She is hillarious!

Snowbird

We went up to Snowbird twice last week.

Do you know how much I LOVE Snowbird?

You think you do, now times that by a bazillion. Snowbird is absolutely gorgeous. It's too perfect. It's fake perfect.

So the second time we went and played in the snow with Marci, my cousin Mindy & her husband Greg and their little Hailey. We somehow managed to escape without ONE single picture of Marci. (sorry about that Marce).



Ayla just loves Hailey. These two are perfect for eachother! They don't get to play together nearly enough! They are less than two weeks apart in age and they are just a like.

Yep. They're shoveling the mountains. It's a big job.


The best part of the story is that the last time we went to Tony's grandma's cabin she gave me a pair of snowboots that she had sitting out on her deck to get rid of. Yeay, I needed snowboots. So we grabbed them to take with us to play in the snow.

I got out of the car and took off my left shoe to put on the boot, I reached my hand in to pull out the toung or string or whatever was blocking my foot I grabbed what I thought was a bootlace with a pom-pom on the end and pulled it about halfway out. Then I stopped cause I'm constantly paranoid, and I asked Tony to pull it out for me in case it was something... knowing I was just being paranoid and silly.

Well guess what!!!!! IT WAS A DEAD MOUSE!!!!! I am still getting the crawlies just thinking about it! AHHHHHH! Disgusting!!!! I had pulled it halfway out with my hand too!!!! ick! I'm still not over it. So I hopped up and down screaming at the top of my lungs for about ten minutes cause I really think that is the worst thing that has ever happened to me in my life.

We Voted & Now We Are Fighting...

...over the sticker! She is so jealous.

I took Ayla and Tayvie with me to vote today and of course they gave me the big red "I Voted" sticker. Ayla wanted one and she keeps asking me for mine. So I told her we would go to Wal-Mart and get her a sticker, she said "a red one?" - no sorry kiddo, a yellow one. She got her sticker- yellow though it may be- and she's happy.

I think the funny part is how attached I am to my red "I Voted" sticker, so attached that I made a trip to Wal-Mart so I wouldn't have to give it up! (I did also need milk).

By the way, look who ended up with the sticker!
