A Bad Case of the Mondays

Ugh.

I'm grumpy.

& Ornery.

It is a terrible combination.

I'm getting very irritated over not important things.

Like how 80% of the general population spells their last name after saying it.

As in, "I'm here to check in for an appointment, my last name is Smith. S-M-I-T-H"

Oh, your spelling of Smith isn't the one that has a silent "G" at the beginning?

Weird.

Wes is alive and well!

He's in Nevada on the Pahroc fire.

It is mostly contained they're doing mop-up right now!

So, hopefully he'll be returning soon in the next couple of days!

Nevada you have an awesome man taking care of your wildlands! :)

This is so funny.

So cute. This little baby goes to Mexico next summer. Ole! I'll miss that squirt. & his deep voice. & his easy-to-be-around-ness.

& it's begun.

Fire Season 2012

Weston has been called to Nevada!

They just went available to be called on fires Wednesday evening. so it's pretty intense to get a call this early!

My adrenaline started pumping as soon as I got the call!

Life with an XL head

Whenever a hat comes with this tag:

 via

Wrong.

One size fits all = don't even try it on.

I do try it on.

It looks like this:

I made sure Weston wouldn't cut his hair before our wedding for this specific reason.

Otherwise we'd look like this in our wedding photos:

Except Wes doesn't have a pin head. This is merely for comparison purposes.

The life of a robot.

Seen these?

Yeah, I hate them.

I end up shaking the computer: "I AM NOT A ROBOT."

It never convinces my computer. I always have to listen to the words. If you can even call them that.

Embarrassing in computer labs.

Adventures!

March birthday toots.

Celebration.

Momma & Pops spoiled the three birthday kiddos as always, they're awesome!

Housewarming gift from Momma.

Annoyed that I'm making him smile for pictures.

I was watching the geese. Goll, I love those things.

Hot.

Wind-blown.

Trying to be taller than Weston. Success.

25th birthday dinner request: Chicken Pot Pie? Boring. but check!

Playing with his new camera. No I'm not on the toilet.

Wake up.

Bike ride to Payson.

Loves his flag from Iraq that flew on his 18th birfday.

Especially loves his new flag frame I gave him for his 25th birfday for it. & how I did a good job folding it & putting it in the frame. Score.

Geo-licious

The Geo's registration ran out in March.  We needed it to do safety testing & emissions testing.  We failed the emissions testing for something. Wes did not have time to fix it. The man said he would charge us $20 to fix it.  We tried to bring it back to him to have him fix it. However, the man wasn't there when we went back. Finally, Weston was able to get a second to take it in yesterday.

The day we took it in to get it inspected (the first time) the handle on the driver's door broke.  A couple weeks ago we took apart the door & realized it's the plastic handle that is broken. So, we've been searching for a geo handle for an affordable price. One Auto Zone wanted to charge $60...uh nope.

With all the medical bills this month, coupled with Weston's EMT costs & the tuition costs for his internship coming up & Rent next week... that door handle will have to wait!

However, check out this handsome handyman of mine!

You can see my contribution here. Hahah no, this is my last picture, because I got up & helped him & we successfully got the door apart & before going to AutoZone got it back together.

Surgery

So April 3 I had surgery.

It was awesome.

Mostly because this hospital gown is hi-tech.

It had a ventilation system. It was a 3 layer hospital gown(thick & bulky) & I was sweating in it bc it was plastic lined.

Then the nurse that attempted my IV came in & plugged this vacuum hose looking pipe into that hole underneath that flap over my leg & it blew air into the gown & it was like my own personal A/C unit. Or after they were finished with the 4 attempts at IV's my very own heater! 

Party!

 The drop ceiling Wes did. This is it's beginning stages.

 This is after 1 side is drywalled & then the other side got it & it's all filled, sanded & painted w/ trim & can lights. It looks phenomoenal. 

 Getting my hair didddd.

 The million dollar jacket we had to buy Wes for this fire season w/ Alta.

To match his million dollar shirts, beanie, & hat.

Workin hard or hardly working?

btw. We bought a canoe. It is awesome.

He got birfday money from Momma & Pops & his Mom & dad, & we forked out the last $50. It's amazing.  Oh & we bought the AMAZING transport system here. Worth every penny.

Lisa & Lincoln at Jenna's graduation lunch. I love that baby!

I'm still so completely obsessed with my ring. Plus, we hang our piano from the ceiling.

Making fun of Deej.

 Celestialand? Count me in!

We like to take cheesy pictures of ourselves in our friend's aviators.

This is why our family does not own a pair of sun glasses.

However, we are champs of self portrait photos.
