Happy Halloween 2013 (almost)

Testing... Testing... 123

... Is this thing on?
I really have fallen out of the habit of blogging since the demise of Google Reader and I apologize to myself most of all.
I am drafting a post on my thoughts about the current wildfire in Rockport and threatening our beloved cabin but until I'm fully ready to write about my feelings on this emotional week, here is a newspaper clipping on an interesting fact about cats. Meow

Wauwen

Auntie Alli: What is your name?
Lauren: Wauwen.
Auntie Alli: Wauwen?!
Lauren: No! My name is not Wauwen, it's Wauwen!!!

The Cookie Beggar at Evan's Party

*hint* It was me!!!!

I LOVE being an Auntie; it is without hesitation the best role in our family. I thank my Heavenly Father every night for allowing me to have these hilarious, adorable, sweet, thoughtful, clever, imaginative, strong, awesome, wonderful treasures in my eternal family.
Thank you to my siblings for making me an aunt, I couldn't have done it without you! Ha ha ha!!

Happy 4th of July 2013!!

Goodbye Google Reader

I'm quite heartbroken about the demise of Google Reader today. I have been a huge fan of Reader since 2006 and it feels a little like my third best friend has died.
I know there are other feed sites I can use but I'm still mourning the loss of MY Google Reader.

Much Ado About Nothing

This is my new favorite movie (almost of all time)!!!
I laughed, I cried, it was lovely.
It is pure, simple, and honest storytelling at its finest.

Spoiled Resume

This is going to sound SO pompous but my heart breaks for people who hate their job. I have been so blessed to enjoy each of my past jobs. Yes, they all have their challenges, but I have never been miserable in my work. I have a hard time imagining what drudgery people feel about a job they hate. Poor them! I feel spoiled to love my work and I realize how lucky I am.
I am totally exhausted from the past 7 days of work moving locations. Moving is always stressful but moving a retail location on a 48 hour deadline is off the stress charts. But we did it!! Whew!!! There are still some little things to finish up and adjusting to the new space will take time but all in all, I am very excited and pleased with the finished product. It is gorgeous, light, and in the perfect spot (right at the east "entrance" in to City Creek).
I love my job. I love the company I work for. I love the people in the company; I trust their vision. I feel so blessed and lucky that I get work here.

Birthday Song

Happy Mother's Day!!!

Mission Control NASA!!!

One Day at Walt Disney World

And we hit 3 parks!!! We are tired and sweaty but it was awesome!! If we hadn't eaten or needed to go potty then we could've fit in Animal Kingdom too but I was happy to enjoy breaks in the hot humid day.
Here is my favorite picture today, it's me and A outside Rock'n Roller Coaster this morning.
Loves!!!

Happy Caturday, from Millie

Call me Tooth Fairy

I'm pretty sure I was the Tooth Fairy in a previous life. I LOVE helping my nieces and nephews pull out their teeth. So far, I have helped/coached Valie, Ashley, Evan, and as of today, Aaron in loosing their first front tooth. Val did hers at Leatherby's, Ash did hers right before family pictures, Evan did his at my aunt's pool party, and Aaron did his at his great grandmother's house. Jack and Lauren better give me a call when their times come! LOL
