i love boyd's bears! apparently i love them so much i bought this piece a long time ago when i worked at a hallmark store and was single! i gave it to a friend and told her to hold onto it for me. i had totally forgotten this story and she gave it to me! being pregnant is so surreal. i truly had given up the idea that i could or would ever be pregnant! what a blessing this is! thanks julie, for reminding me of my hope!

uhm... i am can explain... i don't know for sure how it happen... but i lost my phone. in the couch. and we had a hard time finding it. we ended up having to tear the black fabric on the botton to get the phone out! the main problem was that it was on vibrate and so when we called it we all had to be very quiet so we could here the buzzing! hee hee! it was a little funny... at least to me... kevin didn't find it as amusing as i did!! :)

i decided i should probably put the tree up! but i don't think i am going to fully decorate it like i normally do. so i just put the few ornaments up that i have around. very simple this year. for some reason i am just not feeling the christmas bug like i normally do... that is ok, simple is good too!

i usually decorate for christmas on thanksgiving! but this year i wasn't really feeling it... we finally put some decorations up today! i am hosting bunco next week and don't have room for the christmas tree and 3 card tables with 12 women! so the tree will have to wait until after bunco... this is my countdown, it is the same one my mom used when she was little. i love it! there is so much detail in each of the pieces.

tonight we had out Young Women in Excellence. we invited the Relief Society sisters to join us too, since we had all done a Virtue Challenge together. earlier this year we challenged the sisters in the ward to read the entire Book of Mormon as a "call to Virtue". it was fun! lots of sisters completed the project. this is my favorite part of YWIE, when the girls share what things they are interested in and have been working on during the year. love these girls!! love them!!

i also told my best friend that i was pregnant today. :)

306/365

2009-11-05T12:51:00.004-07:00

this morning i needed to be in murray at 5am for their inventory. so we decided we would get a hotel on our way home from visiting sam. we stayed at a Stay America, and it was ok. nothing too fancy. the crazy thing was that right after i fell asleep some annoying loud noise started coming out of the a/c unit!!! it sounded like an alarm of some kind. to be honest, we still aren't sure what happened, but it happened twice!!! ya... i woke up tired today!!
