I loved this movie!

Yesterday my friends and I went and saw Hairspray! It was a really good movie! I highly recommend it :) I never watched the old one, so I can't compare it to this one, but it was good! John Travolta as a woman...oh my! :) The cast was fabulous! I have been watching the talk shows (since I work at home most days) and they have been interviewing them all for the last couple of weeks, and it got me hooked, and I'm not a big musical fan! Go see it!

I need help :)

Hey! I have seen many cute pages out there...where can I go to get cute templates and backgrounds? These ones on blogger are so plain and boring :)
Thanks!

Time for a break

So, I'm writing my paper that is due on Monday...not so bad at procrastinating right now, but I need a break! I have to reflect that I love this time of year...just these few weeks out of the summer...Monsoon Season! I love seeing the storm come over the Superstition Mountain, down pouring, showing us our streets cannot handle a lot of rain. Just kidding. I really do like the storms though! I sure do miss living where there is actually weather other than a sunny day :). Growing up in St. Johns we knew of the seasons somewhat. We had winter, an occasional snow day to not go to school. Then we had spring where all the trees were in bloom. We had a summer, could go swimming at the city pool, or playing in the irrigation ditch. We also had fall, where the pretty green grass died, and it was time for the County Fair. Here in the valley, not so much, we have winter (80 degrees....sitting in your shorts on Christmas day), and we have summer. Going to school in Flagstaff I sure do miss the snow! Even though classes hardly got cancelled, it was so beautiful. I loved it when it snowed, it seemed to put the city at ease and it was actually quiet! Boy....where did those days go?
Anyway...I just was thinking about it...and need to take a break of reflecting about conflict (that is what I have to write on for my paper) :)

My kid....to show off :)

Man...were we little!

I thought I'd post this picture because I think it's hilarious! I got it off my sister's myspace page. It's funny, when I was that little I always thought I was adopted just because Corey and Monika had blonde hair! Now we all have dark hair. Good times! Oh, and you know me...I hate dresses, especially matching ones! Thanks Mom! Just kidding!

Just some pictures :)

Me and my puppy---we love riding the quad...or what we call our "mule"
This is my dad and I...our family ward had a daddy-daughter date, for all the ladies in the ward, regardless of age...Yes, I was the oldest daughter there :)
My mom and I clowning around at Six Flags
My Grandma Hall and I at my
graduation from NAU
My Granny and I went to Vegas for vacation a couple of years ago to see my brother Corey.

Well, I see a lot of people creating blogs, so I though I'd give it a shot :) I live in Apache Junction, AZ. I am currently renting a house, 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, and it's just me and my favorite sidekick...Lucky (my puppy). We have been in our new place for about 7 months, and I love having my space, but it does get lonely sometimes. I also work at the University of Phoenix. I get to telecommute (work from home) 4 days a week, and only have to drive into the office every Wednesday, or for any special meetings or training. I'm also going to school there again, working on my Masters Degree. That's about it for now :)
