ZAC

Zac has asked that I share with my fellow bloggers that he doesnt do most of the chores that they are split equally among the 2 of us. Hope that makes you feel better honey :)

Washer & Dryer..YEAH

I have been using the same washer and dryer for the last 20 years...YES 20 years. My family moved here in 1987 and purchased a used washer and dryer. I still remember the day my mom taught me to do the laundry and which buttons to push. I moved out in 2002 and my parents graciously gave me the washer and dryer. Zac, my wonderful husband, does most all of the laundry, among several other things around the house. He has been complaining about the washer not washing his clothes right, putting fuzz balls on his shirts, he has found holes in his shirts etc. My clothes, not a problem. So we went looking for a front loader washing machine and we found one we liked at Spencers. I was telling my bro in law Greg about them and his friend happens to know the General Manager of Spencers & he said he could get us a deal. So rather than getting just a washer we also got a dryer. We were going to hold off on the dryer so we could go to Portland but if we bought both we would save almost $300, so here is a picture of our savings account...I mean washer and dryer. I have to admit I do love them, they work way better than the old one and whites really do seem whiter and the clothes dry so much nicer.

Almost everyones blog that I look at has the cutest freaking pictures of their children. I love reading them and looking at them...which has caused to me to think that my blog is somewhat boring. Zac and I want children but jut not right this minute. I work full time, go to school at night and will be starting my internship in August. Ill be done my Masters program in May...yeah and then we can start working on a family. I found this picture of these babies made out of marzipan which is surgical paste and I thought it was pretty cool so I posted it. Keep posting the pics of your kiddos I love it...and I love the blogs that dong have the kiddos yet too :)This blog is kinda random. Zac & I went to Showlow over the weekend and Ill post those later this week :)

Chicago

I went to Chicago with Cara and Katie to visit our friend Morgan. We had so much fun. If you look at my friend Caras blog she sums it up nicely. We shopped, ate popcorn, went to a museum, rode on a 4 person bike, stayed up all night talking, rode the train, ate tons of food, saw the sites and most of all had tons of fun. Here are the pics.

Now you may be thinking why did she post this picture. Well this is the first "taste of Chicago" that I had. This is what is called a Sani Seat. Rather than you placing your own tissue paper, aka butt gasket on the toilet, these toilets come with a wrapper. Prior to sitting down you wave your hand in front of a sensor and the wrapper moves and you get a fresh piece of "saran wrap" to put your butt on, pretty funny if you ask me :)

I absolutely hate this advertisement but it was hilarious. We were walking down the raod and there was a truck with this on it. Its an ad for a law firm, we were in shock but you have to admit it is rather funny.

Heres the 4 of us, me, Cara, Morgan and Katie. The 4 of us went to California almost 2 years ago and we had tons of fun so we decided we wanted to continue to do girls trips. Cara and Morgan got married about 2 weeks apart so in Apirl 2006 we went to the James Hotel in Phoenix and had tons of fun, then I got married in Aug 2006 and that same month Morgan and her hubby Jamie moved to Chicago so we made plans for us to visit her there. Wheres our next trip gonna be girls?????
Ok I had to put a pic of these flowers. Zac picked me up from the airport and these were waiting for me when I got home, he said he didnt want me think that he didnt miss me. Truly he is the best. So that is Chicago in a nut shell!

Daddys car

Heres a picture of Daddys car. Its a nice car so that is why daddy wasnt so happy about it getting towed. My dad is a great man who understood all the drama but it just took him a day to soak it all in.

Dude!! Wheres my car

Here are the pics from my LA trip with my mom and sister Anna. My sister Rachel wasnt able to come because she was moving into her new house that same weekend. My mom and I drove up to LA on a Wed and then we picked Anna up from the airport that night. We went to LA to see Wicked, which was awesome. This trip was quite the adventure. We went shopping in Beverly Hills on Thursday and after hours of shopping we went to get into our car so we could go to Wicked...only there was no car!!! It got towed!!!

So this is where the car was supposed to be but the three of us didnt read the sign right and we were freaking out. So I called the tow car company and they said they had our car but that first we had to go to the police dept and get a vehicle release and then we could go to the tow yard to get the card. Well Wicked was supposed to start in 2 hours so we spent 30 mintutes finding a cab and then we had the scariest cab ride. Ive had several cab rides but our cab driver was freaking crazy, I truly thought I was going to throw up. Heres my mom and I in the cab!!!

We finally get to the hotel, asked the front desk for a cab to pick us up to see Wicked, we had 20 minutes to get ready and then off to Wicked. It was an amazing show and we all loved it but we were also stressed about the car situation. We woke up early the next day and decided to rent a car to get to the police station and then to the tow yard. It was much cheaper.

Once we got the rental car we drove to the police station and we couldnt get the release form because the car is registered to my dad and not to my mom and dad, so we had to call my dad so he could fax over a letter saying we could get the car, that was fun. Then we drove to the tow yard paid a ton of money and finally got the car, it was a huge relief. We then drove back to the rental car place and then we all got into the car and went to Santa Monica, all very relieved we had the car and deathly afraid to park on any streets. The rest of the trip we paid to park in parking lots rather than on the street. It was such a fun trip but a crazy one to say the least :)

You cant read the sign so well but this is me and my sis at the tow yard :)

Heres the end of our trip, in Santa Monica. Good times had by all.
