Catching Up

So I'm basically a failure at this whole blogging thing. Its been forever since my last post.
So what, you may ask, have I been doing in all this time that I have been neglecting my blog? Not a lot to be perfectly honest. Mostly I've been avoiding packing, cleaning, or anything else even remotely associated with my moving in three weeks. I prefer the avoid-at-all-costs-until-its-absolutely-necessary-and-I'm-having-
a-panic-attack approach.
That being said, in order to fully avoid, I have:

*seen a lot of plays:

• The Wedding Singer (with my mom)
• My Fair Lady (with Lindsay)
• Aida (with Chelsie)
• Children of Eden (with Cassie)
• High School Musical (with my little sisters-there is no way to describe in words the sound of literally thousands of little girls screaming their lungs out when Troy Bolton walked on stage)

*Watched a lot of movies: To make a list would take all day, so we're not going to go there.

*Gone to see a lot of movies: Even if there was nothing new out, I would just see something I had already seen.

*Hung out with my fam at the Diamondbacks game at the Gardner family reunion:

Our view of the field

I have super shaky hands, so my pictures are always blurry :(

My parents

Doug & Stacey

My adorable cousin Emma



Around the 6th inning, with the score 0:0, boredom set in:

At this point, my lame-o camera died, and i took no further pictures of the remaining few days of the reunion. Anyways, on with my list:


*Chelsie came home from her mission in Brazil

* Kalia got her mission call to England

* I bummed around with my cousins and played games at Geronimo

*Read some amazing books: Right now I'm reading Twilight and getting ready for Breaking Dawn to come out. Only 13 days!!! The thought of actually having it in my hands makes me want to squeal like a little girl who just met the Jonas brothers.



*Went to a couple of card classes with my cousin Hillary and made some adorable cards. And in the continuing style of the cruel irony that is my life, during the Christmas in July class, my ticket was drawn and I won the $20.00 August class free. Too bad I am moving to Utah the week before the class. It worked out good though, cause at least Hill will get the free class and I can steal the card ideas later.

*Never missed an episode of So You Think You Can Dance or Project Runway

So that's basically the story of my life, or at least the last couple months of my life. Other than that, I'm still working(only five more days to go{insert rejoicing choir music here}), spending time with family & friends but not actually thinking about leaving them, trying to figure out how I'm going to fit my entire life and my 1,000+ books into my little Cavalier(j/k,actually trying to decide which books to take, and which to leave-which is no easy task, mind you as they are all my dear friends), hanging out with my cute Mia Maids, and bummin around livin the good life.
