wassups!

So, I got a plate rack like this (only not like this cuz i got it for 8 bucks at big lots....)
and i know you all sit at home and you are like... allie has it so rough, i think i will get her a present because she works so hard at everything she does. and then you are like i bet a girl like her loves plates.
why, yes i do.
and to make your shopping a little easier here are plates i would love having on my wall!



aren't they all so pretty.
anyway- i will post a pic when i find the 3 most awesome plates to hang on my cheap plate rack.

nay nay got his mission call! (note: picture above is not from the night he got his mission call. since mentioned picture, nay has grown a full set of chest hair and doesn't go around shirtless with a nasty necklace on...)

Curitiba BRAZIL! what!!! how are we all gonna manage? he will do great. because he always does great at everything.
and we will miss him. but... it is the cutest thing to see him so excited.
i love you baby brother nay.

as a tribute to nay- i found an old poem he wrote about my mom. here it is. the last line is my ultimate favorite.

Mom

Being with you makes my heart sing

Even when you make me clean.

I love it when you talk to me

You make me think of butterflies

Fluttering through my heart.

Mother, I love you, though I may not show it

But I think of you, even when you are not with me,

I think you’re very special,

You know it, yes you do,

Because you have two men in love with you.

what's been happening...

My father-in-law graciously gave me SUNS pre season tickets. I took aud.... and guess who was there. Katie's old BF. THUNDER DAN. he was like... will you tell katie i miss her and i want her back. and ... her retainer.

we did not know SHAQ got traded. we did not know mr. raja bell no longer was on the suns either. we learned a lot that night.

dental hygiene girls at a seminar. we are goofy.

no but seriously this seminar that you pay 30 bucks to go to has the best snacks. so, andrea was thinkin right when she brought little zip lock baggies. i got water, trail mix, fruit, bags of chips and malt balls.
score, right?!!!cheap???? yeah, i know.

i have been having a problem with my keys lately. like locking myself out of my house. or.... leaving my keys in the door all night. .... practicly begging for creeps to come get me. i was searching my house for 20 minutes looking for them. something told me to look in the front door.
golly. i'd lose my head if it wasn't attached.
and p.s-- i know i need some girly key chains. i'm working on it.

we spent the afternoon at the lake for miss rhea's birthday. it was a blast! this is my cute brother in law taylor. with his super cute sunglasses.

he is so cute too.

the gang minus sam. because he was taking the picture. wish we all got a pic together....

woo hoo for the oral cancer walk! 20 bucks for 2 miles! thats 10 dollars a mile ladies and gents. spendy.

we went to the state fair.... to people watch and watch people spend their life savings on life size dollar bill pillows.

And... also to watch people clog their arteries with yummy stuff like deep fried bacon. what??
oh my-sick.

i'll end with this picture. craft day with mom and kate at hobby lobby. kate was like... i need to go get some batting.
and... then she came back with enough batting for like 10 years. and left me and my mom in line looking like we're material hogs.

anyway... yay for NOVEMBER! i love this month--- because the TURKEY TROT and THANKSGIVING! and it is finally cool!
i must go. i am late for school.
later foolios!

seriously?

Am i right or what.

WOOOOOO HOOOOOO

to our oreo

Happy birthday to our Sweet Stuff in the middle.
Love you.

Viva Las WAGES

Thats right.
Last weekend we headed to The Vegas.
to celebrate-
My birthday.
The holiday.
The no more MCAT.
And it was awesome.

Aaron took me to see Phantom. I love musicals, how have I not seen this one! I LOVED IT!
When we got home we IMMEDIATELY put on the movie, and haven't stopped singing it around the house. Aaron does pretty well...

It was hot and I had maybe... like 8 blisters on each foot. AND 2 lbs of m&m's in hand. He is a trooper to put up with me.

On the way home you pass the Hoover Dam, naturally, and... they are doing construction, blah blah blah... but out of all the things to notice and comment, what does Aaron say:
"Oh my gosh, how do you think they got the port o potties (is that what they are called...) up there?"
and I was like,
"Can you imagine stepping out of one and realizing where you are..."
yeah, car conversations for us are often, QUITE often, like this.

My birthday was the bomb. Aside from Vegas I got calls and texts from my fam, and calls from my friends. We went straight to my parents house on the way home and- my family had a little party for me with gifts and lots of icing cake AND I came home to 2 things:
#1 My house heart attacked with memories of Aimee and Me. LIKE:
Who is Marty Red anyway OR Al say something funny -TOMATO! and it made my day.
#2 Kel sent me a package from Cali. With clothes that look JUST like what I would wear!
I said to Aaron:
I have the best life.
And then I proceeded to eat the rest of my 2 lb bag of m&m's.

SIDE NOTE:
I totally signed up for my anesthesia board like a month ago. I take it Dec. 17th.
With the application they want a photo ID.
Here it is.
Don't I look like a pedophile with three young kids in my trunk just waiting to escape with them.
Even better. Julie took her picture.
Wish I had it.
She looked like Patrick Swayze.

holla ladies and gents!

gross huh???
