The Hannah Montana Movie

My Sister Megan and I had a girls night and watched the Hannah Montana Movie. I would say that if you are in the mood for a girly disney movie with the type of humor where the villian face plants into the mud- you are in for actually a good show. I don't think Billy Ray Sirus is such a great actor, but Hannah holds her own in her movie. It reminds me of the type of movies I loved when I was little. I would surely say it is far from a classic and not a must see, but if you are in the mood for a cute teenager show, give it a try.

• 17 Again is a girlie teenager show that is a must see. . . It reminds me of Freaky Friday or 13 going on 30. It's Fun!

Life without a Mailbox. . . or the internet

It is funny how life hands you one funny situation after another. Just when you think you have your current situation figured out, the next one quickly appears. Clay and I after three months of marriage solved the "homeless" situation and bought our first home. Funny situation #2, we moved into a brand new neighborhood and don't have a mailbox or internet. . . There is a big brawl going on between the developer and the Federal government. . . individual mailboxes or a community mail box at the end of the street. And so far no one is budging. So, how do we get our mail? Well, I have only done it once - we go to the North Logan Post Office and tell them we don't have a mail box. The one time I collected our mail there were 3 bills. I don't really want to go collect it again anytime soon. And who knew that internet cables don't get run with the phone and electricity? We didn't. Looks like we won't have internet for up to two years! Or we can go with super expensive satellite internet - but we really don't want to spend all our pennies to check our email. Thank goodness for internet at work during lunch breaks and trips to the Post Office.

A Blank Canvas

Our new home is all unpacked, almost everything has a spot and my things are more organized than they have been for a long time! We now have an office, a kitchen, a family room, two bedrooms and two bathrooms to live in. And for me. . . a blank design canvas. So to all of those who expect great things from a designer, just know that these are the before photos. So heres to a new project!

Are you kidding me?

That the home buying process takes close to four months these days!!! This is a true story, we are not pulling your leg. Clay and I began the process of buying these quaint little home three weeks before our wedding, accepting the fact that we would most likely have to find a place to crash for a week or two before being able to close. Here we are nearly three months into our marriage and we are finally seeing the closing date in sight. . . this week!!! We are so grateful to Holly and Adam for letting us stay at their place and for being such generous hosts. We are so excited and can't wait to bring all of those fun wedding gifts out of storage!!!

Cruise Photo Album

Forever and a day later. . . here are some photos from our honeymoon to the carribean!!!

The Giver

Remember all those books they made you read in school? The ones that you half read so that you would be able to answer the questions on the work sheet and maybe pass the pop quiz? Well, one of those books happened to be the Giver and as I wandered through borders the other day looking for a book to read, it caught my eye. I remembered liking the story but other than that could not remember a thing. So . . . I picked it up as my next summer read. I loved it, I think I appreciated it much more now than I ever did in the sixth grade. It makes you think about all the things you are grateful for in life that we just take for granted. I am thankful for family, for colors, for joy and pain, I am grateful for the opportunity to make choices and be a unique individual. Any suggestions for the next summer pick?
