There were 12 small projects and 5 "proficiency" projects that were a lot more involved, with a lot of specifics on stuff like adjustment layers, clipping layers and blending modes. So I now know the ins and outs of Photoshop CS4! Yay for me! Or I could at least figure things out and I am excited to get a lot of practice in! Here is one of the "proficiency" designs I did, I think it's darn cute!<br />

6. Trip to Island Park, Idaho and Yellowstone Park (Aug 13-15)<br />
My amazing grandma rented a cabin in Island Park this past weekend for the whole family as a kind of birthday celebration for herself and it was pretty darn great! She is the best! Everything was great, except for the fact that Jarom and I had to sleep on the top bunk of a bunkbed-together...I kid you not! Thank goodness for side rails, right?!?<br />

Jarom had never been to Yellowstone before and he has lived in Idaho all his life!!! So it was really fun to take him for a few hours. All we did was wait for Old Faithful, we got there right after so we had to wait 90 min (aaahhh!)! It was super duper!<br />
<br />
There's the last month in one large eggshell...Ostrich sized! This post has taught me that I need to wear some of my other sunglasses...and that I need to blargh more!<br />

The kid in the red has seriously good moves, some are delightfully unexpected! It's the way I imagine Jarom would dance if he was 12...maybe now, too.<br />
Have fun!<br />

These are very real things that I am grateful for, even if they were trying to be funny! (although this doesn't even compare to the time we taught about baby Jesus and to relate we asked, "What do you do to prepare for a baby to come into your home", to which they responded, "get a bucket and a white sheet to catch all the stuff that comes out!" oh my!<br />

So we headed down to Hooper Park (how American does that sound) to watch some fireworks and hear some live music! They lit the fireworks right across the street and they were RIGHT overhead! It was kinda scary! I kept freaking out that they might start a fire (it was windy!) and Jarom told me to be quiet...haha! Nothing Cotton Candy can't fix!

It was sweet! I am always saying that I wish we still traveled by train so it was fun to do so! We missed our first train! I wish I could've seen us running across the street trying to get there before it left! <br />

And I'm not saying that's a bad thing! Laaassst weekend (June 25-27, 2010) we had a reunion with Jarom's, Mom's family in Ephraim, Utah. It was really nice to finally get out and go camping this year! Not only is camping a good excuse to get out and meet people that you've met again, but it is my ultimate excuse to sit outside and read a book (or a few) while getting a good sunburn. To me, any color is good, so I will settle with a little red! I read "The Hourglass Door by Lisa Mangum" on a whim (because it was cheap at Sam's Club :) ) and it was okay, a little juvenile, but still a decent read, it took at least half way through the book to explain what the heck was going on. I also read, "Eat, Pray, Love, by Elizabeth Gilbert" and I really liked it! Her writing has really great charm, wit and humor, plus it has some really great messages and was overall pretty dang inspiring. I'm pretty sure that this was the first memoir I've read (memoirs seem a little daunting, but I do spend a lot of time reading blogs so...) I think I could take on a few more. Anyway, back to the reunion...We went down Friday, stopping for some delish In-N-Out goodness (This diet has successfully gained me 5 or so pounds this year!)<br />

Saturday was spent reading, eating, talking with family, geocaching and getting a big yellow Jeep stuck in a bigger brown mud puddle (for a photo-op)!<br />

And we are really excited about it because ever since we lost the C-RV last year (sad face) our car situation has been feeling kinda <i>off</i>. It's amazing how much the littlest things can totally throw you off. We bought the Jeep pretty hastily after the accident because it was something we <i>both</i> wanted, but what we didn't take into consideration is how selfish <i>I</i> am :). It was my attempt to "compromise" and we saw it as an opportunity to buy something together, since we came into our marriage with "his car," and "my car." The thing I really forgot to consider was that this was going to be the replacement for my car and it was really the family car.<br />
<br />
I like to think that we make smart decisions but the Jeep just ended up being really impractical, I mean, who uses a <i>soft top</i> Jeep as their main car when they live in Idaho...during the Winter?!?! Plus, how was I ever going to buy more crap from Ikea with no space in the back!?!? Annnd, I didn't like driving it because I had a real issue with the plastic windows in the back, not being able to see through them and the shaking of the back window gave me headaches! (please excuse the sob story!) I missed MY car...<br />
<br />
When we wrecked, we got a rental car to get back up to Idaho. It was a Mazda5, the minivan...and I swore that I would never drive a minivan. There are other options, no offense to anyone! But we really liked how it drove, maybe since it was a nice new car...and we weren't used to that, but you know. So I have had my eye on the much less minivan-ish Mazda3 ever since! I wanted a hatchback, and it had to be automatic because I'm lazy! This proved to be hard to find (particularly in the price range...!) Well, we Finally found a great deal last week!<br />
<br />
We got a 2009 Mazda3, hatchback and automatic, in the dark gray color! It's pretty schweeet! The girl was moving the next day and had lowered her price significantly. I Love it! It has 4 (technically 5) doors and it is so nice to have that again! We have been living the two door life for the last year and we still catch ourselves reaching to the back seat for stuff and saying, "oh yeah...!" It's also pretty exciting to have auto locks and windows and a/c that works and on and on!<br />
<br />
We also sold our Jeep this week, <i>after </i>we bought the car so we were sweating the fact that we might not be able to sell it...we got really lucky! Whew! The Jeep was really fun but I don't recommend anyone get one for their main car. It would make a great 3rd or "Fun" car, but that's just my opinion (I could possibly be swayed with a hardtop and better gas mileage).<br />
<br />
If you read all of this, thanks, when I started I didn't think I would be writing a book and a Jeep review, but I guess I did! Part 2 to come soon...this is the part where I post some pictures of my new car!!!<br />

And it's a bad habit. I sometimes buy notebooks just because they look like they would be perfect for lists. I will take a little legal pad from my parent's kitchen counter and claim it as my own. I will write stupid things like make bed and get ready on my list to make it look longer, in turn making me feel more productive. Is anyone else guilty of this? Or am I the only one?!?<br />
<br />
Today's list:<br />
__ Make Bed<br />
__Check up on Etsy :)<br />
__Vacuum<br />
__Paint Toenails<br />
__Finish hair bows<br />
__Photograph bows, edit photos<br />
__Post something on blog (check!)<br />
__Eat Lunch (this is something I have to remind myself to do because I get distracted by the internet!)<br />
__Go to school<br />
Plus everything else that I add in between!<br />
<br />
But now I really need to get to the moral of this...I am doing something that makes these lists less of a waste. I know a lot of you have heard of 365 projects (originally a kit of the month from <a href="http://www.creatingkeepsakes.com/">CK</a> by <a href="http://www.beckyhiggins.com/projectlife/">Becky Higgins</a>), whether it's a photo a day, or a scrapbook page a week, it's really a personal preference. I've been wanting to do this for years, ever since I saw <a href="http://www.aliedwards.com/365-project-life/">Ali Edwards</a> do this on her blog. Here are some examples from her:<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6VOeOBScixIKzOwISsY9oZU87eV_gOu2OAkNFVYeYs05WGqXV6S24uXkwFOE4gakHfOU7j1U9Oc68R4YeV6Qp7uDVozxAfXdeOoxxuSjcv7fPzLNE8wK-61qRuzyBNi5JM3kxeH480i8/s1600/365ali2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="195" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6VOeOBScixIKzOwISsY9oZU87eV_gOu2OAkNFVYeYs05WGqXV6S24uXkwFOE4gakHfOU7j1U9Oc68R4YeV6Qp7uDVozxAfXdeOoxxuSjcv7fPzLNE8wK-61qRuzyBNi5JM3kxeH480i8/s400/365ali2.jpg" width="400" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3kqQFvL_dwzXvcRMavw4M60TE7zpbZn9LORHZNfTkQOTT1vk7GSoKleFKabXaLaj3O5a4pT1CDOqvWVu4UZUKEwKNt8kItvMkU-3MXU3tetkmnsAeuql4jiy4JTNIWaoCBNZheTNgI1I/s1600/365ali1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="202" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3kqQFvL_dwzXvcRMavw4M60TE7zpbZn9LORHZNfTkQOTT1vk7GSoKleFKabXaLaj3O5a4pT1CDOqvWVu4UZUKEwKNt8kItvMkU-3MXU3tetkmnsAeuql4jiy4JTNIWaoCBNZheTNgI1I/s400/365ali1.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
I started a few months ago, March, I think, and I've been really enjoying it. I love that I am making something that we can reflect on years later that will cause us to say, "oh yeah! I remember that!", as well as have a great resource to check back if, let's say I'm wondering about when I was sick last. It will be a real documentation of our year (and hopefully I can keep it up for years to come).<br />
<br />
I am using 12x12 page protectors that have 6-4x6 picture slots, one for each week (one side of one, so 6 slots for stuff, per week) as well as an 8.5x11 that goes between each 12x12 one, this is where I will write our story (by hand). I am just trying to go with the flow and keep this project low hassle, there are <i>no</i> rules. I keep a lot of junk, <i><b>lists</b></i>, mail, receipts, chop stick wrappers, medicine boxes, anything I think will tell a story. I am also trying to take a lot more pictures and be creative with those pictures. I just think this is a great way to organize all the junk in your life and give it a home. Now I haven't photographed any of my pages yet because, of course, I don't feel like they are "done" but hopefully I can get to that soon and I will post them here asap (it might be the end of the year, haha)! So have any of you been doing anything like this? Let me know because I'd like to see!<br />

Aaaahhhh! On Saturday I convinced Jarom to drive me to Logan to get to some thrift stores other than the usual picked over D.I.'s around here! I got a lot of great stuff, much to Jarom's disappointment! Some of the pictures below are from previous trips, but I still wanted to share. This weekend we ended up with a new projector, GE Fan, a Cute Vintage Dress, a sweet Leather Jacket/Hoodie (that I didn't photograph), pretty little harvest pyrex dish and a scrapbook to house my 365 project (photos to come sometime on that project!) Here's some pictures!<br />

I know this is very late going but I've been waiting for Jarom to finish school first, so now I'm tired of waiting and it's about time anyway, right?!? (Since I graduated 5 years ago!)<br />
I will start June 1st at <a href="http://www.datc.edu/web">Davis Applied Technology College</a>, 2 days a week in the Web and Graphic Design program! This has been in the works for quite a while, it's what I've wanted to do forever. I just never wanted to do the typical college thing with the prerequisites and wasting money on courses that I didn't want to do. This school is just what I need because I can work at my own pace and take the classes that I want! Needless to say, we are both very excited and can't wait for me to finally do something with my lazy self! <br />
<br />
Funny Story: You have to do an assessment test to get in to the school on basic math and reading/comprehension. And I've always hated math, so Jarom made me a lovely little practice test the other day to see what I could do and man...! I had to google. haha! Basic math...! I kinda felt like an idiot, but it's been 5 years since i've done ANY math so I think I have a little excuse. Calculators have destroyed our generation. Who needs to know how to do long division anymore?!? Apparently I did! But after a little review I only missed one question, the guy was impressed! So in your face division (and fractions!)!<br />

It's funny that whenever we are on youtube we end up watching these! Notably the marshmallow game, mxc and stuff like that. Tonight Jarom had to show me these two and they are crazy, so funny! I love the hole in the wall one, oh my goodness! And the guy in the white running with his arms straight on the treadmill one! We also watched this one where they play soccer with binoculars, it is super funny but the video quality is bad so I will spare you! <br />

Jarom has been taking over the computer every night! haha! Playing his game...but that's cool. I usually sit by him when he plays and tell him what he should do! So...I will hopefully get on later and write something good...but it's beautiful outside! AND finally warm so I will be out there!<br />

Jarom has had a crazy schedule lately, working from 8-4 and then driving all the way to Kayesville for school from 4:30-9 on Monday-Thursday, in the crazy, stupid Utah traffic! He is doing awesome so far, but I'm pretty concerned because that is a pretty extreme schedule! Hopefully he doesn't lose steam too soon!</div><div style="text-align: left;"> </div><div style="text-align: left;">We spent the 20th through the 25th of April in St. George, our favorite place to vacation! The weather was not great and we were super bummed. We left northern Utah to get to some warmer weather and it was rainy and windy for all except the last two days, but we still had a lot of fun! It was my grandpa's birthday on the 23rd so there was a big group of us (me and Jarom for some of the time, my parents and brothers, grandpa and grandma, Jannette and Cameron) that went on this trip kind of as a birthday trip! Jarom had to work so he drove down Friday, leaving me alone with my family :) haha. I totally felt like I was in high school again! It is weird to not have a partner to do stuff with! So this is a quick summary of what happened...</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
