MY NEW BLOGS

I created two new blogs where I'm going to be making the majority of my blog posts from now. One is to post about my love of clothes, jewelry, shoes, and fashion: http://whatkimswearing.blogspot.com/  and the other is for everything else I'm currently interested in: http://pinkkperfume.blogspot.com/

I posted two new blog posts on each of them.

MY TRIP TO UTAH

I went to Utah at the beginning of the month to visit my friend Chrissy. It was a MUCH needed vacation. We got pedicures, decorated wood letters at a cute craft shop, went shopping, had my hair colored by her sister, went bowling, watched conference, made beaded watches and saw a couple movies. We saw "How to train a dragon", and "The Bounty Hunter". The dragon one was really cute but the bounty hunter was realllly not that good. I love Jennifer Aniston and Clive Owen but the story wasn't any good and the whole pretty much fell flat. We also went to the Melting Pot and had a 4 course meal which was AMAZING. If you havent been there before It's DEFINITELY worth trying out. I hope I can go again soon.

Also, last year when I visited her we forgot to take pictures, and this year WE FORGOT AGAIN!!! I'm so sad. We were so busy doing so much that we just never got around to it. I took a couple of her kids with my phone which aren't the highest quality but I'll post them anyway.

Heres baby Mckinley:
and here's Kennedy:


We drove past a HILARIOUS car when driving around town, and I already posted it to facebook but I thought I'd post it again here:
The back of the car window read: "YOU MIGH' BE A REDNECK IF"

We actually passed by the car TWICE while driving around, both on separate days in completely different parts of town. It was weird.

This is my first blog from my phone so we'll see how it turns out..

If you didn't already know, I love clothes. I also have been following some fashion blogs lately....so I decided to do some fashion blog posts of my own.

BACK FROM MY LONNNNGGG BLOGGING VACATION

It's been almost a YEAR since i blogged last! I used to blog ALL the time and lately I've just found lots of other things to fill up my time like work, my new house, my 3 dogs, hanging out with my husband, a scrapbooking meetup group, reading, etc. I have lots to catch up on so I'll be filling you in on some of it soon. I'll be posting pics of my house and dogs and much more. For now... here are a couple links to blogs and websites I've found and love:

I love holiday weekends. Im having fun hanging out with Devin and our dogs today and relaxing. Here's a picture of Devin and the boys:

Heres a picture of my awesome snuggy!!!
My next blog will be a picture of my new teeth and short hair.

I'M ALIVE!!!!!!!!

Yes, Its a miracle and I've FINALLY decided to blog again. Ive been ignoring my blog and putting off blogging for quite awhile now. I have had some health problems that leave me with very little energy for the last little while. That's part of the reason I haven't been blogging for so long. Another reason is because when i get home from work if i get on the computer to blog, before I know it I'll end up surfing the internet for 3 hours or more. I first started writing this blog in the MIDDLE OF MARCH but forgot to finish it till now. Ive been trying to stay away from the computer sort of because i spend too much time on it when i do go on it. But, I decided to try and blog a LITTLE more from now on in the future.

So, what Ive most recently been up to is I went to visit my friend Chrissy in Lehi, Utah a while ago. I haven't visited her in Utah since she got married almost 3 years ago so it was really fun! I got to see her daughter Kennedy, and her step daughter Kyrsten who i haven't seen in a long time which was really nice. Kennedy just turned 2 years old and is SOOOOO smart. She can talk so much and knows everyone's name around her. Some cute things she does are: She has to have a baby wipe with her when she eats so she can clean up herself and the table around her if she makes a mess. She also always wants to have her hair done cute before she leaves the house. Theres lots of other things she does that are cute but i cant remember them all. While I was visiting Chrissy, we went to see the movie "Taken", went shopping at the outlet stores in Park City, got spa pedicures, saw a improv comedy group, and did more shopping. It was lots of fun and I will have to visit her and her family alot sooner next time. Sadly, we forgot to take pictures when I was there so I don't have any to post.

One of the thing i bought while I was visiting Chrissy is a blanket wrap similar to the "snuggie". I know they look absolutely ridiculous and most of you probably cant figure out what i actually wanted one. I myself thought they were SERIOUSLY ridiculous when i saw a video AMY posted about them on her blog. But, then somehow i kept thinking about them and wanted one of my own. I was JUST about to go buy a snuggie when I was told that they only cover you in the front and that their pretty much just like a backwards bathrobe. So, my snuggie excitement was crushed and I didn't get one. BUTTTTTT, while i Utah I found a blanket wrap at Ross, that covers you from front to back. AND IT WAS PINK!!!! I already feel the urge to buy anything if its pink regardless if i need like or want it, so the fact that it WASN'T a backwards bathrobe and it was pink and only 6 dollars totally made my day!!! My camera is having issues so I don't have any pictures to post of it. I know, boring.

So, as for what else is going on with me and Devin, not a whole lot has been going on. Devin fractured his wrist while horsing around with one of his friends, and had surgery on it a couple months ago. They put a screw in it to make the bone grow back together. His wrist has not healed completely but is starting to feel better. Also, Devin is taking summer school for his last semester of nursing school, so if all goes according to plan he will be finishing nursing school at the end of the summer. YAY!!! After he finishes he plans to go to school for another year to get his bachelors in nursing. He will probably work as nurse while he does that. So, even though our future is still somewhat up in the air, its nice to have another phase in our lives coming to an end.

Ive also been into reading, alot more lately. Heres a list of the books Im currently reading or am going to read:

The House of Night Series

To Kill Mockingbird

The Other Side of Silence

Roomates Wanted

Snow Falling on Cedars


Ive read the first two books of the house of night series so far and really like the series. I actually like it more than the Twilight series. Sorry to those of you that love Twilight but if you like reading and like vampire books than you might like reading the series. Ive also read the book Snow Falling On Cedars, and enjoyed that book also.

I'm going to try and post at LEAST once a month from now on, even if i don't have anything very interesting to blog about. Hopefully I don't take another 7 month blog hiatus. HOLY CRAP!!!! I just realized its been 7 MONTHS!!!! I'm really really really gonna try to blog more often. My next blogs are gonna show my new hair since it used to be really long and is much shorter now. I'm also gonna show a picture of my teeth before and after i get new crowns put on them. Currently I have one tooth with a crown on it that is not done well at all and sorta falling off. Another tooth had a temporary crown put on it when I was about 15 or so and it fell off and I never got a permanent crown put on it. I am excited to have a more normal looking smile I can be proud of!!!
