The sun'll come out tomorrow...at least it better come out

That crappy grey cloud is looming again over our house. Our Mirage got backed into like a month ago and we are still messing with stupid Met Life for our claim so we can get the car fixed...the bad news is that the car is totaled, but we can still drive it so we are cashing in the car for a salvage title and keeping the money, so that could be considered good...but who wants to get their car ran into. Any car that I own is a magnet for damage...all caused by other people. Bad Karma, I guess. Last Monday morning our snowie guy went out to work and somebody had shaken the building so all the flavors fell off the shelves and spilled all over the place. So we have been putting the flavors on the floor at night but Saturday night they didn't get put down, so the little jerks came back and this time it knocked the machine on, and the machine was running all weekend and melted the housing and burned out our ice shaver. Now I love that Ice shaver...it makes me so happy. Even though the snowie is a pain in the --- , I still love the fact that I get to go get a free snow cone any time I want and it makes pretty good snow cones. But now, I can't even go get my ---- free snow cone. My only choices are ice cream pucks, bags of ice, and bottles of half empty flavors. At least I bought $75 worth of spoon straws last week so we can suck the syrup out of the cups. I hate the Eagle Mountain spot. This thing could be awesome and so fun if we didn't live in LAME Saratoga Springs, that doesn't let me have a snowie here. I am going to be petitioning the city council this month to change the laws so we can move it here next year, and if I am unsuccesful, if anybody wants to buy it, it is going to be for sale...with a brand new shaver because I have to go buy a new one this week.

Plus my poor grandpa is dying in St George this summer and I am trying to go down there and see him before he gets too bad and I am swimming upstream with my plans for that as well.

At least I can go look at my beautiful Lilies in my back yard...oh wait....Milo and Anthony pulled off all the flowers and sprinkeled them all over their slip n slide.

Sweet Revenge


Almost every Friday night we can plan on getting some sort of vandalism in our yard. It started out with silly string, then toilet paper, they even took some time to color pretty pictures and tape them all over our house and cars. Last Friday our whole yard was caution taped and we have known who it is all along. They keep wanting us to get them back and we keep promising but not delivering, mostly because we were waiting until the right time. Sunday afternoon they came over and Josh gave them back their yellow tape and they started wrapping themselves in it so I told them to "wait till I get my camera" and then they tipped over and I started hosing them down with water. They didn't even say anything because they knew they had it coming. I still have a few other characters to get back (watch out Taylor 1 and Taylor 2) it definitely keeps things interesting around here.

The long awaited suprise photos for some great friends to enjoy

This car was seriously awesome...we carved our names in to the foam ceiling and drove it everywhere. I had to go with Lindsey to get it inspected because i had to distract the guys while she sat in the drivers seat and showed them how it to get everything to work. My favorite was that you had to turn the steering wheel to honk the horn. Patty would die if she knew how much lindsey let me drive that car.
Tan, Blonde and I totally remember that striped shirt. She must be practicing for the dirty woman song, that goes to the store on Saturday, Sample day. GOTTA LOVE ALY! The best part is when she performed it she would sit on the floor hugging the piano leg, and it took her 10 minutes to stop giggling before she could ever start singing.
