Winner Winner

Today was a first for Aaron and me. As we were driving to work together this morning we were listening to our favorite radio morning show on X96, when they asked the trivia question.

"What was Bella covered in when she woke up the first morning on their Honeymoon?"

So I blurted out the answer as any true twilight reader would. Aaron had this incredulous look on his face, as if to say "those books are SOO lame." I then said jokingly that he should call in, long story short, he did and we WON!!

I'm still not all that sure what exactly we won, but we were both pretty stoked just that we won.

I also got a good chuckle out of the fact that he was the one that called in and gave the answer, now everyone who listens to that particular morning show thinks he reads those "lame books!"

Spring

I absolutely love the spring. I love everything about it, when all the world wakes up and comes to life again after the long cold winter.

I love the smell of the grass, and the smell of the earth after a long rain storm. I love all of the things that springs brings back. Warmth, baseball, flowers, birds, neighbors and kids outside working and playing in their yards. Everything is so vibrant and so fresh.

Spring to me is like God's way of saying "one more time."

The Dog Door

May I just take a moment and bear you all my testimony of the the DOG door. In my humble opinion it is the best inVentiOn since sliced bread!! They are fabulous, and wonderful! Your dog can come and go as it pleases, you can be gone for any lenGth of time and not worry about getting home to let dear ol' FiDdo out. You also don't have to feel bad about working all day and leaving the pooch locked in the house (as in our case). Sadly for the past few weeks we have been WithoUt one, and it has been a very long four weeks for all thRee of us, with alot of int erupted sleep.

So yesterday I took matters into my own hands, and did what I do best... that's right... I picked up the phone and called the contractor. The door was installed last night, and thrEe of us had a fabulous nigHt sleep!!

Back in the "Hood"

Yesterday when I got home from work it was such a beautiful day out that I decided to take the dog on a walk. This was quite the feat for me because those of you who know me well, know that I do not voluntarily spend time out in the cold, due to the fact that I hate it. (cold is anything below 60 degrees!) However I bundled up with my warmest down jacket and grabbed the leash and on our way we went.

In my brief time away from Farmington, I had forgotten how beautiful it is, and how much I absolutely love living here. The tall trees that line all the streets, the quiet peacefulness of down town, living within walking distance to Farmington pond and Farmington canyon. I had forgotten how nice it is to have and to be a neighbor to someone.

I love all of the unique houses that line the streets, none of them are the same, they have so much character, and each has its own story to tell. I've been on dozens of walks all over Farmington in the time that we have lived there and each time I see something new that I hadn't noticed before.

I'm so glad to be back in the "hood" again, and I'm so glad that we made the decision to stay in Farmington!
