85 Days.

Oh. Hello.

Its been awhile 85 days since I have had anything to say. I wish that everyone would stop posting when I do so that when I start again, I don't have to play the catch up game. Don't you bloggers out there know that the world basically does not revolve around me?

I am excited to start this New Year.
365 362 days full of adventure and excitement.
I feel like this is going to be a great year for our little family.

Tonight I am going to make ask William to write resolutions down with me. We have this "bucket list" board hanging on our wall where I want to post them, and as we accomplish them we will take them off the board.

I am going to NOT make the same old cliche goals that you read/hear/see such as lose weight, join a gym, be a better this or that. I want our goals to mean something, and have a purpose. I don't know what they will be, but that's what I want. Something like, volunteer somewhere, or sign up for something the two of us can do together, participate more in the community. Do you get what I mean?

But first I need to play catch up on what our lives have consisted of over the last few months. (Maybe I should make a goal of posting at LEAST once a week:) )

OCTOBER:

We went to Vegas with the Family. (Husband, Grandpa, Dad, Brother)

NOVEMBER:

I voted for my first time EVER.

Went to my first RUSH concert. It was amaze-balls.

William made it into the St. George Magazine and Newspaper for the Top 40 under 40 business dudes.

I am so proud of this hubby of mine!

I rocked the OLD hair school style. (look how long my hair was!)

DECEMBER:

(Then I cut my hair, and love it)

Went to Salt Lake for family parties with this brother.

William's favorite present. My family thinks he looks like Abe Lincoln.

Best. Parents. Ever.

New Year's Kissy Kiss.

We went to a party at our friends Stephanie & Devin's.

New Year's Day Breakfast at Black Bear Diner.

(Yes, we were still trying to wake up, and no my nose is NOT that big in person)

If your lucky, I'll be back tomorrow with the New Years Resolution post that is floating around blogland.

XOXO, Tere

Insta-Life

Do you instagram?

Here are the tid bits from the last week- er so.

 If you follow me (which you should), you most likely think I am a freak from all the Dog Photos I post. I cant help it, I love my pups and think they are the best ever. Top right is Sam, the 85lb boxer, asleep in my bed. Of course William wasn't home, he would have killed me.

 I had to work at the bike shop one Saturday. Basically I know next to nothing about bikes, but it sure was fun trying to pretend that I know the difference between a tube and a tire!

This is what our weekend looked like. His & her things, Nitro-Circus, Myspace photo in the movie theater bathroom (im really mature), and an outfit.

September 18th the new Killer's CD came out and my super cute co-worker/ friend make these for everyone in the office. Sexy brother. Wearing husbands shirt, why are they so much more comfy than ours?



Whatever. I couldn't get it to turn around.

As I was looking at this is the preview I noticed something fun. The cloud looks like an alien spaceship and the blue below looks as if its trying to beam up strawberry man, and the eskimo thing. Does anyone know what that is? 

I met a real life blogger friend guys. Her name is Shay, and she is crazy weird. Kidding. We met at Red Robin, (a public place in case she was a creep) and had dinner. We bonded over other blogs we follow, talked about life, and even got a little personal. I seriously felt like I had known her forever, and she was a close friend. She was so open and sincere, and completely sarcastic like myself, which is good because sometimes I am overly sarcastic and it comes across in a not so good way. I felt like a total fatty because she basically didn't even touch her food. But whatever. After that we made our way to Menchie's Frozen Yogurt. It was amazing, and delicious. We colored these pictures, then went door bell ditching/ just left them on the front porch. It was seriously the funniest thing ever. Then our night ended.

Hope your all having a fabulous week!

P.S. You guys would be embarrassed of me if you could see all the typo's I make in my blog drafts. Seriously, total embarrassment.

XOXO, Tere

Why William calls me Hitler.

I am a cheap-o, a penny pincher. I am not scared to admit that either. I like to know what we have, and what we can to better to save money and live within our MY budget. You may remember this POST that talks about our budget, and how we keep track of money.

I stick to this budget religiously. Although we have stopped doing the envelope method, I am stricter on our budget now more than ever. Opening up a new business takes its toll on the owners for the first little bit. So right now we don’t have a budget other than DO NOT SPEND A SINGLE PENNY OR I WILL KILL YOU. The husband is still alive, so its working out quite well.

I took this “Hitler” thing to a whole new level. I made bran- muffins the other day and knowing William all 24 of these would have been gone in the first 2 days with the way he eats them. So when he came home and started to dig in I told him he had to limit his rations to 2 per day. He laughed, until he saw I was serious.

I am constantly asking/ telling William to do this and do that. I know that I need to cool it a little but seriously, if I ask him nicely it doesn't get done. So what choice do I have other than asking 14,000 times a day? Right? No? OK, I know and agree I need to be nicer to this cute husband of mine!

So whenever I turn into the demanding, selfish, crazy lady that I am sometimes, William will put up his pointer finger in the shape of a mustache over his top lip and just look at me.

The other day he said he is going to make a mustache and attach it to a stick like you see in those photo booths, and hold it up every time I turn into Hitler.

Lets hope I am not a reincarnation.

XOXO, Tere
