NEW JERSEY

I have been out in New Jersey for 3 weeks now! yes 3 weeks!! wow time flys so fast when your having fun! So let me update you on what I have been doing here in the East Coast!
I got out here on January 5, 2009! My family came and picked me up from the airport!! They stayed in the car, until I came outside. Because the dad Phil was out of town for the week for school, so Heather the mom had the two girls with her. They were pulled out of bed, so she didn't want to hall them in asleep!! Right when I saw Heather I knew I was going to be in good family! It was late when we got to their house, so I really didn't get to see the town.
Heather is amazing! She is soo sweet! She really cares about me and how I am doing! She is a nurse 2 days a week at a rehab center. And other than that she is a mom that loves her girls so much and wants only the best for them! She is a wonderful hands on mom!!
Phil is great!! I still don't know him very well. Cause I was here for a week until I met him! So we are starting to get to know each other better! He works in NYC at a bank. And he is going to school to get his MD! So he is always studying! But he graduates in May!
Mackenzie is 4 1/2! She is blond hair that is super curly! She is very active and loves to be doing something!! She has so much energy!! It is so much fun to see what she will come up with! She is in LOVE with shoes!! If she gets in trouble, you take away her shoes or lip gloss!! She is super girly! and I love it!!
Bailee is 2 1/2! She is so much fun!! She loves to play with my hair or play on my phone!! She likes to do whatever her sister is doing! Bailee is super smart!! It is crazy to see a 2 year old that smart!! She too is always super girly!! So we love to play dress up or paint our nails!!
I have been soooo blessed with such a great family!! I think we are going to get along great!! the area is amazing!! There are trees everywhere!! The town that i live in is super cute!! it kind of reminds me of Sugar House area!
I love their house! it is about 200 years old!! and they have fixed it soo cute! There are 4 floors! The top floor has 2 bedrooms and an office! That is where I sleep! The second floor is where the parents sleep and the two girls. My bathroom is also on that floor! The third floor is where the kitchen, living room, and playroom! And the basement is where the laundry room is. and also storage. The basement is not finished yet! They have a beautiful yard! I can't wait for summer so we can play outside!

BLACK Friday

I love Black Fridays! It is soo exciting to wake up at 5:00 in the morning and go stand in the cold waiting for the doors to open.. and then putting your life on the line trying to get that hot item that everyone seems to want!! Love it!! On my moms side of the family all of the girls get together look at the ads and make a plan!! it is soo much fun to do this with family!!
But this year was a little different!... I go to bed thinking I better get to sleep so I can wake up in 3 hours... well as I was talking to my self, my cell phone rings... and its Kim asking if I would like to go to Wal Mart and wait in line with her and Missy. Sure.. But the catch was they were going right then! at 11:30 at night!! I was like OKKKK count me in!! I go and tell my mom that i was leaving now and i would just meet her at Wal Mart at 5:00! Crazy I know!
OH MY GOODNESS! It was soo much fun to be 1 of 20 people in the whole store! We were crazy!! We were all soo tired, so we were all acting crazy!! We made soo many new friends that night! some poeple i bet hate me for being so loud, but I just don't care cause i will never see them again! My favorite part was telling people that they were too late, and to move on! Cause people just thought that they could come an hour before and get what they want!! So we told them too bad! good luck next year!! here are some pics from our great time at Wal Mart!

Dumb PuZzLe

So during Conference I thought that I would start a puzzle to help the time fly by. So I found a 1000 peace of Wicked. Well this dumb puzzle took me forever. I started it on Conference and I finished it on Thanksgiving! Freak!! The hardest part was.. there was only 3 colors! But when I finished I was soo happy for myself! BUT some dumb person thought that it would be funny to hide one of the parts.. and so yes there was one missing! I was kind of sad! But here are some pics of my work in progress!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

I love the holiday Thanksgiving!! I have such a wonderful family to spend it with! I think that is why I like it soo much! But after the great meal some of the cousins went bowling! I am sooo Thankful for the amazing family that I have!

Its about time..

Everyone I am super sorry that I have not blogged in forever! But I have good reason! My dumb laptop was not working! So after about 10 hours on the phone with the computer comp. I got it working!! So now I have lots to update! and yes some of the post are way back from November! oh well!
