Hermosilla Mexico


So, my one of my best friends, Kurt just got his mission call!! Like ten minutes ago haha :-) He's going to Hermosilla Mexico, Spanish speaking of course :-) And he leaves December 31st!! It's so weird and sad that my friends are going to be leaving one by one :-( I just hope all of them go close enough that sending packages won't cost an arm and a leg!

Found It!!

This is a routine from So You Think You Can Dance that I have been trying to find for weeks!! I love it! Mia Michaels did the choreography and she said it was what Tim Burtons wedding would be like, I love it! AND as most of you know, I love Tim Burton and he is making an Alice and Wonderland! I'm so excited!!

Shawn Johnson and Nastia Liukin.....

As most of you know, I have very strong opinions :-) So here is my opinion on Nastia and Shawn...


HATE Nastia, I think she is fake and, well, nasty.

LOVE Shawn! I think she is so cute! And I wanted her to get gold so bad!!!

Just thought i'd brag a little :-) I live here!

Ziggy






So this week was the festival here in Sandpoint which is a pretty big deal, we have lots of pretty well known people come. Last night Ziggy Marley, Bob Marley's son, was here playing. They do it at Memorial Field which is also where the football games are. There is a fence around the field but right behind it is a big grassy park where you can sit and listen if you don't want to pay for the really expensive tickets! And its also by the lake so people park their boats and listen to it from there. I kind of wanted to get tickets but they were sold out, and once we drove by and smelled the rediculously strong smell of weed I was kind of glad! But it was really cool to be able to be there, reggae isn't one of my favorite kinds of music but I enjoy listening to it :-)

Take 2!


Ok, because my wheels were too small and my tires too big i'm starting over! I'm selling both my four brand new tires and my four brand new wheels (See first post with picture :-)) And i'm getting 17" wheels and tires to go with them. I went to Les Schwab and used their virtual thing, which is really cool, to see what seventeens would look like and its really cool :-) Much better than what I have now. I don't want to pimp out my car so i'm trying to find wheels that won't do that. And i'm also trying to find cheap new ones and so there are limited options. But here's what I think i'm going to get for wheels


The bottom picture is the virtual machine at Les Schwab, it's not the same wheels that i'm getting but they are about the same color and they are the same size :-)

Some of my favorite things to eat :-)

These are all so fattening! And they look so good right now!! :-)
This first one is a crunchwrap supreme from Taco Bell :-)
This is of course from coldstone :-) Mmm I love their ice cream!!
This specific shake is from Applebees but I like any shake!!


This is an Ace of Cakes cake, I love their show and their cakes!! I have never had one of course but they look so good! I want them to make my wedding cake :-)

This is the hamburger quesadilla I was talking about in an earlier post, by far the best thing I have ever had at a resteraunt!!


And this delicious thing is the p'zone at pizza hut :-) Mmmm! You can have them make you one with just cheese and olives! Its soooo good! :-)

Stupid, Stupid Day...

Today has been the stupidest day. I have been getting yelled at all day for nothing. Honestly, nothing. I do nothing wrong and still get the wrath of my co-workers and boss. I've cried half the blasted day, I now have a headache and i'm done with this dumb job. Advice for girls out there: Don't work with only guys! I thought it would be good for me because I usually don't get along with girls. But I guess that's why they say too much of something good is bad or however that goes. Ugh, so i'm trying to find a new job so that I can give my two week notice. And finding a job right now in Sandpoint is next to impossible. Grrrrr.... anyways. Hope you all are having a better week!!

Just an Update..

So i'm back at work this week...sadly. I really don't like working. But hey, I doubt anyone does right? So we've been watching the olympics every night, I love them!! They are so fun for me to watch. I catch myself on the edge of the couch squeeling at some times, for instance when Michael Phelps races haha :-) Yeah nothing too exciting happening right now.... i'm racking my brain :-) Umm... i'm reading Breaking Dawn for the 4th time... I know, pathetic. But I don't have anything else to read! So if you have suggestions let me know! :-) And I got my car all done and I ended up getting all four new tires but they were a size bigger. They still work but they are about two inches taller and it makes my car look really funny! I haven't gotten around to washing my car yet, or the wheels. So once I do that then i'll take pictures. Probably this week :-) Ok well I start work in 5 minutes! So i'll post later! Love you guys!

My week...

It's been a fairly good week! I had this whole week off from work, I really needed it. Working with 9 guys and absoloutly no girls is really hard. It's really fun half the time but the other half I want to rip out my hair. So i've just been relaxing all week, sleeping and hanging out with friends. Yesterday I went school shopping with two of my friends in Spokane which was pretty fun. We went to applebees afterwards and I got the best thing! It was called a quessadilla burger or something and it was, well, what it says haha. A quessadilla with all the stuff in a hamburger but it was easy to eat and so much better than a regular hamburger! I even sacrificed the last half to bring home so my family could eat some. But they all passed so I ate it :-) Then last night we had a 'weenie roast' at our house. My Aunt Shawna and Uncle Hank were visiting with their kids from Redmond Oregon so they came over along with My Aunt Deno and Uncle Paul, and my Uncle Bill and my cousin Kyle and his wife Katie with their gorgeous baby girl :-) It was alot of fun. Hot though, especially by the fire! And then last night before I went to bed I put a note on the door for FedEx saying that they had my permission to leave any packages on the doorstep without a signature, because my wheels were coming today and I didn't know if I would be home to sign. So when I woke up at 10 I had a voice mail from the guy (I had left my #) saying that he was at our house but couldn't leave the wheels without a signature. So I called him back and he said he could meet me at my work. So he did, and my wheels are so cool! I love them :-) I'll probably get them on sometime this weekend and then i'll post pictures with them on my car :-) It might not though because Bob says I have to get two new wheels to put them on :-( So I might not be able to afford that right now. We'll see! Anyways, I better go do something!

Picture Wall....


So mom has been wanting to put a bunch of picture frames up on one of the big bare walls upstairs for a while, so we finally did it this past week. It looks ALOT better in person haha, and they are all crooked because we didn't have alot of time to make them straight. We were just putting the nails in the wall. So eventually they will be straight and they will have pictures of people we actually know in them! Oh, and if you are one of my siblings reading this, mom wants pictures to put in them :-) Mostly of the kids but of the couples too :-) Kidds AND Hovanskis!



My Car! :-)

The inside, my sirius and cd player....


I got the star decals a while ago, I thought they were white and black
but they are just black and clear so they don't show up very well on my tinted windows,
but it still looks ok :-)


See if you can spot the chuaua in the background :-)

New Wheels! :-)

I just got my car back from getting painted, it only cost $500! But the whole thing didn't get done, just parts that really needed it. So it looks pretty good. So good that I decided I needed new wheels :-) I didn't want to pimp it out haha, so hoepfully these won't look to weird! I took pictures of my car yesterday, so i'll post them soon!
