Slacker...

I have been a total blog slacker lately. I decided to spice things up and give my blog a new look, hoping that it would help. So I thought I would tell you why I have been such a slacker. I don't have any good excuse but here it goes.


1. We have dial up internet. According to some of my siblings we still live in the stone age, which may be true. Having dial up makes it very difficult to add anything to your blog...it takes FOREVER. So usually instead of updating my own blog, I spend my time looking at everyone elses.


2. So this next one was a while ago but it still demanded all my time. I got sucked into the TWILIGHT SERIES.

These books were so good, I couldn't put them down. I LOVED all of them, even the 2nd one. I highly recommend them to anyone. I was not going to read them but after countless people recommended them and needing something to do on my long night shifts I gave in and read them. Well worth the time. I can't wait for the last book in the series Breaking Dawn to come out in August.
They are doing a movie of the first book that will come out in December. I am very excited for that as well. I do have to say that originally I wasn't that excited about the casting, but they have grown on me and I think it will be great.
Check out the author's website for all the good info.


3. So mid February my brother Bryce and his wife Brandi came into town to spend some time with us all. Four days after they left my brother Troy come back from Iraq for a few weeks. Unfortunatly we weren't all able to be here at the same time but it was great to see both of them.

4. American Idol started up agin. Unfortunatly it has been on most of the nights I work...so Mike has been recording them and I have been watching them in the day. I am excited about this season. I do have to say that my favorites are the Australian (I don't remember his name), David Archuleta (Not jsut because he is from Utah although that might be it a little) Carly the Irish girl, and Brooke.

So in a nutshell that is my lack of blogging recently. I will try to do better.
