That dress cost more than my car

I was able to attend one of the preliminary nights of Miss Utah this year. And this, ladies an gentlemen, was the winner of best evening gown:


I mean, sure she's skinny and pretty and walks well. But shouldn't like, half her points be deducted for wearing chocolate mousse on tinfoil? I didn't realize culinary clothing was allowed.

Jill Stevens, Miss Utah 2007, and I

I did get to shmooz with some big names that night. This is Jill Stevens (some of you may recognize her from all the national guard magazines - she was their poster girl for the year) and I am on the right wearing the tiara. Haha psych I'm the less shiny one on the left.

The Dark Knight: and in depth review

OH MY GOSH! IT WAS SO GOOD! YOU HAVE TO GO SEE IT! I WANT TO SEE IT AGAIN AND AGAIN!

personal revelation

I just wrote Josh a huge letter on how important it is to keep a journal and I'm not even keeping one.
So I guess my personal revelation is: I'm a hypocrite.
And to those who don't keep a journal, go read this:

Duke has been found

He crawled under our grape vine and died. We found out when the smell started wafting towards the house. I was so surprised. He acted like a puppy still so I forgot he was 12+ years old. I'll miss you Dukey boy

BTW?

Babysitting A.J. is as easy as it gets.

p.s.

I found something on a personal page of someone I respect insanely. It was about an anonymous girl she looks up to. I'm going to pretend it's me.

Duke?

Our dog is missing. He is a black lab and answers to Duke and should have tags so why hasn't he been returned yet?

I'm sad

still a little stunned

How do you comfort someones brother without making it more painful? I want to say just the right thing but every word I think of and write is quickly deleted. maybe silence is best?

Decker boy

He made every day better for everyone he could, but I guess his job was done. It's a huge loss. Keep the family in your prayers, please.

4th of july

I had to work until the fireworks were over so I just headed to my parents afterwards.
Indy had surgery on his eye. He's knocking everything over and is a lot of fun to tease right now.



Look who was waiting for me and still awake! I had an XL Dr.Pepper with me. I know I know, just about the worst thing you can give to a baby. But he gives me puppy dog eyes... and then I have to give it to him.


This is where he pretended like he was going to give me some, and then took it away right as I went for it (not like I would drink it anyway after all that baby slobber)


Once he had it, he would not let us take it away


and this is where the caffeine started to kick in


Once the drink was finished, had the choices of rinsing him off or getting sticky so I took him for a quick sink-bath. I think he is happiest when he is in a puddle of water.


then I took him back outside again for some more fun. Mcdonalds xl soda cup as hat fun:


I love his mischevious grin


Can you resist these big brown eyes?


I sure can't.
