Father's Day Suprise!!!

OK, so I know that its been a while since I've blogged. Its not for a lack of things to blog about, We've been to the airshow, my sister and her family came into town, Etc.. Its just that the most exciting thing that has happened to us lately we've been keeping a secret, until yesterday that is. If you haven't guessed what the secret is yet, I'll just tell you.


WE'RE PREGNANT!


Can you believe it? its ok, we can hardly believe it either. We found out the week after Mother's Day. I knew something was off when all i wanted to do was sleep, then the next Monday I was so sick at work i could barley stand. That night I told Jason I thought I might be pregnant. We bought a pee stick and of course it came out positive. So after thinking about it we decided not to tell anyone until Fathers Day a whole month away! It was so hard to keep this a secret. Especially when I wasn't feeling to great all the time. But It worked! Our families were so surprised. Jason and I took little onesies and ironed on letters to break the news. We gave one to his Dad that said "Grandpa's future Pilot" and one to my Dad that said "Grandpa's future Fishing Buddy."

It was great! Jason's family was totally shocked and not expecting it at all! It took them a minute to realize what the shirt was telling them. But after they got it they were so excited. My family got it right off the bat. My dad said it was the best fathers day gift ever! Mine and Jason's extended families were thrilled to death for us. As for us, I think we have mixed emotions which mostly consists of excitement but also a little fear. We're just hoping that everything goes as smoothly as possible!
Heres the videos of our families finding out!

Total Wicked

"Wicked" (the musical) just left town today. Yesterday was their last performance and I'm happy to say that I got to see it twice and didn't pay anymore than $25 a ticket. How did I do this you say? I won the lottery, the Wicked lottery that is. you can go down to where the show is playing 2 hours before it starts and put your name in the drawing. there are usually 200-500 people that show up to do this. My mom played the lottery almost every night she was in town she won once and took me :). Then this last Saturday I went with her and my name was drawn out of the pot. My Dad really wanted to see it and since Jason didn't want to go, it was just me and Daddy-oh. I loved the play! I costumes were so crazy and the set was so intricate. Of course the music and story line are just amazing. Dad really enjoed it too, he said he'd see it again. I would advise anyone who hasnt seen it to try to see it a least once in your life, it was so cool!

Then on the drive home from Wicked I saw the coolest thing. Something I've always wanted to see. The Oscar Mayer Weiner Mobile! I couldn't believe it. My mom and I were just talking that morning about how she saw it the other day and how I would love to see it. There it was, my wish had been granted. What a great weekend huh?

Birthday, Vegas, and Random things

Okay, so my 22 Birthday has almost been a month ago but I think I'll still blog about it. I had to work on my birthday which I guess was fine. Jason took me out that night to Carrabbas for dinner and gave me some very expensive sunglasses. (F.Y.I if you live in the Orem/Provo area and you haven't yet been you should go to Carrabba's and order there BBQ Chicken Pizza, its DELICIOUS.) Plus the night after my birthday we went out with my cute little Great-Grandmother, who I share a Birthday with, my parents, my grandparents on my mom's side, and my sister with her boyfriend. It was pretty fun, my Great grandma Laveta is just the best.

My real birthday present was going to Las Vegas! Jason and I took a little trip with our good friends Curtis and his wife Alicia to Vegas the first of April. Since this was every one's first time to Vegas being "Legal" (with the exception of Jason) we did a little gambling and I have to admit its pretty addicting. I know when to stop I swear!! I just didn't want to. I did win $50 at Caesar's Palace woohoo.... Curtis and Alicia had never been to Vegas before so we showed them the sights (meaning the strip) and where some really good buffets are. We were only down there for 2 days but I think we were pretty ready to come home the last day. I haven't walked so much in a long time my legs were killing me. Over all I think everyone had a pretty good time there.

Also I just thought I would let you know that I had my teeth whitened and I will NEVER do it again. My Dear In-Laws gave me teeth whitening for my Birthday because I asked for it. Since my Mother-in-Law works at a dentist office She did the whitening. Now for those of you who haven't had your teeth whitened at the dentist this is how they do it. They put all sorts of stuff on the face and in your mouth so
A. your mouth will stay open during the procedure and
B. So the lights don't burn you.
Then they put whitening gel on you teeth and put you under the lights for 15 mins, then wipe off the gel reapply it and but you back under the lights. This step happens 3 times. By the end of the first round my teeth were all ready sensitive, in the middle of the second round my teeth hurt so bad I decided I couldn't go under the lights a 3 time. All day long my teeth were killing me. They hurt so bad that by the end of the night my dad wanted to put me out of my misery and gave me a Loratab. Now I've taken Loratab only one other time in my life and that was when I had a kidney infection. I spent all day and night throwing up after taking it. I wasn't sure if the Loratab is what made me sick or if it was the kidney infection. Because my teeth were hurting so bad I decided to take the Loratab and hope that it wouldn't have a negative affect on me. Oh Boy was I wrong, I spent the rest of the night in the bathroom throwing up everything I had eaten that day. My mother-in-Law felt so bad and I felt horrible for her feeling bad. Really I wanted my teeth Whitened but I think I'll stick to the home kits next time.

Hot Swimming Suit

OK so I know it just snowed the other day, but I am so ready for summer. I'm trying to get my beach body and I've been scouring the Internet for a really cute swimsuit and today I found one I just love. Here's the link http://www.fashionising.com/diary/p--Herve-Leger-SpringSummer-2009-catwalk-collection-1730-19557.html. Isn't it Cute? To bad I don't look like that model plus I'd never be able to afford the dang thing but its super cute!!! Maybe some cheaper Designer will copy it and i can buy it at an affordable price :). I'm just hoping for that option.
Anyway Hopefully summer will come soon, I'm sick of the cold.

Basketball

Jason has been playing basketball on the Horrocks Team. Its so funny to watch the guys who we work with play basketball together. You want to find out what someones really like, get them out on the court. Unfortunately they haven't won a singe game all season. That is up until last nights game. Yesterday was supposed to be their last game. Its tournament time and they lost their first tournament game which meant if they didn't win the next game they were out. To be honest I was kinda hoping to be done with Basketball. Not that i don't love watching them play, its pretty funny most of the time, but they play Thursday nights so i have to miss "The Office". Plus I'm the only won who ever goes to the games. Moving on... Yesterday they finally learned how to play together as a team (to bad its a little late). They were doing well in guarding and watching where there "guy" on the other team was. The best part about the win, and by best i mean funny,  was that they played a team with only 4 players and that team almost beat them. By the end of the second half the other team only had 2 guys left, 2 fouled out. That other team was good! (If Jason knew I told you the other team only had 4 players he would be embarrassed. So lets not tell him I told you) I couldnt believe they won I had to take a picture of the score board to remember it by. Ok so it wont let me up load the picture of the scoreboard so I'll have to do that later (if i remember) . Oh and P.S. Doug Giles- number 25 in the picture up top reminds me of you.

Prayers for the Hales

My heart goes out to one of my very Best Friends, Megan Hale, and her family. Lossing someone you love is terrible. Our thoughts and prayers are with her and her family in this hard time.

A little Update

We're back from Iowa. It was so much fun to see Courtney, Doug, Drew, and little baby Preston. It was my first time seeing Preston and I expected him to be huge, but he wasn't. He is really long and has the biggest hands I think I've ever seen on a baby. I was expecting the weather to be cold but it was actually very nice (mid 40's). I'm glad I had the opportunity to see everyone and I really hope they move closer and somewhere warm. :)

Now for Valentines Day. Just for kicks I thought I would let you in on a little secret...I don't care for Valentines Day. Before I was married I never had a good Valentines Day. My Husband is really cute and always gets me really good stuff for Valentines, but we never make it a big deal. This year we went to Cheesecake Factory for lunch and then we bummed the mall for a while. I gave Jason a fossil watch and he gave me some make-up I've been wanting. For dinner we went to the Mexican restaurant down the street and it had no wait so that was awesome. Then we sent the rest of the night at home watching TV.

Oh and the coolest thing, I won a magazine at http://theletteredcottage.blogspot.com/. I'm so excited I won, I never win anything! I love this Blog.. Layla is so creative. If any of you need decorating Ideas Layla is the person to go to. She does all sorts of design stuff. I really need to enlist her help in my house for some ideas. I highly recommend checking out her blog, its so cute.

So that's my little update. Now I'm Starting the count down to my Birthday!! Only 38 Days!!!!
