Fly Fishing

Today I wanted to go sit by the river so I texted Pete and asked if he wanted to go fishing, He replied with I don't know I am tired. He then came home and said let's go!

So we went and got there and Pete put on his gear...


And off we went to the boys new favorite hole...








I was sitting on the bank just enjoying life and relaxing and, of course, watching Pete fish,





And fish




And fish




Don't worry he had a lot of bites




And caught three. This is only one but this was his second cast, second hit, and first landing. He landed two more through out the night



At our house we release fish like they are going out if style!

Thanks Pete for wanting to go fishing so I could relax by the river! And thanks for showing off to the other guys, who mind you, weren't minding their fishing manners!

Hoarder!!!!!

Have you ever watched Hoarders? If not, well you should!

I, together with my mom, have decided that I have a hoarding tendency!
Don't you fret little blogging buddies! It's a small problem, but this very small problem could get potentially worse!

You see one of my worst nightmares is waking up in the middle of the night parched!

But this really happens!

So I usually have a drink of water beside my bed!

Can you guess what my hoarding tendencies are????





Yup water bottles! One or two of those are empty, four are half full, two of those half filled bottles came from work today!

One of these is not like the others? Wanna guess which one?

The Gatorade bottle! The lonely Gatorade bottle! My favorite flavor, and flavor by choice (obviously) fierce strawberry! YUMMY

Oh and you can't forget the lovely UTES water bottle!

But it doesn't stop there! I usually have a bottle or two in my car rolling around! Usually half empty! And stays that way till I pick it up and throw it out!

But in my defense, sometimes they come in handy! Like today! I got in my car after work, and looked over and saw a spider hangin from it's web! Slowly getting closer to the floor boards! How they hang from their web and can fall from it is beyond me, and partly what makes them so creepy! I happens to have a can of diet coke in my cup holder, it may have been half gone! So I grabbed the can, opened my door, dumped the flat warm contents of precious diet coke out onto the ground! And tipped that can over on top of the spider! I thought maybe I could scoop it up! I was wrong! It stared to get away! But not by just walking away like a normal spider! Nope you see, this spider was a jumping spider! And it started to jump kinda fast! I had to work fast as well! But I got him eventually! He is dead somewhere in the SLCC parking lot! Sianara little-unwanted-hairy-useless-creepy-crawly-friend!

You will not be missed by this girl!

So sometimes my hoarding tendencies come in very handy!

And other times it just makes clutter on my bedroom floor!

And now you know one of my bad habits!

I am the proud owner of...

This new beauty!!!!!!!!







I love her! The whole 7 quarts worth!!!! Yes you heard me right! 7 quarts. Here is the story....

Yesterday my mother went to Wally World with Riley in the morning. While she was there she saw crock pots for only $17 dollars. She was telling me this and said she was really tempted to go get one more for the wedding. But she felt like she shouldn't spend the money so she decided to make what we had lined up work. Well I said I will buy one if you want. (I mean really it will come in handy one day.) And she said no it's okay. I kinda left it at that.

We then ran out to my grandmas and got her's. It's kinda small. So I then said let's go look at them. So we went to Wally World for my second time that day and my moms third (a whole other story) we looked at them got prices and such and left to price more to find the best deal. On our way out we got to talking and decided to take back some tier serving dishes to Costco deciding that, we really would not use them. We are not big on going "all out" for parties and such. Don't get me wrong they would be fun to have, but seeing as how we did not know how often we would use them we decided the $45 sounded better then keeping them. So we took those back to Costco, and proceeded to BB&B. But not before we stopped at Shopko to check out their supply. (they don't have much of a selection) and as it turns out neither does BB&B. Unless you want to spend at least $50! I love that store though! So then we went to Target! They had some but I decided if I was going to buy one, I was going to buy one with a timer. And if i was going to spend $25 on one that is 5.5 quarts why not spend a ten more dollars and get a seven quarter. Haha when I will not need one that size for a long time my mom said, you can just register for a smaller one when you get married. (good point mother!) So we left there, and made our fourth and fifth trip to Wally World. And got the beauty up above.

We used it today to make home made chicken noodle soup! And boy did. It taste GOOOOOD! Betty, yes I name things, does good work! She did not disappoint!

On another note these two get married thursday!



Which means these three





Miss F!!!




Mr. D!



Baby K!

Will finally be able to meet! And I get to see them again! Boy oh boy I can't wait!

I have a feeling Tuesday and Wednesday at work are going to drag extra long! The first two get to fly on a airplane for the first time! And they are so super excited!

Oh did I mention, because I am the cool aunt, I get to tend these three While the above couple gets married in here






Yup everyone in my family gets to attend the sealing except me! Why cant i attend the sealing? Because i am not yet endowed! I am only 21 which means I still have a few years to get married, (because we all know I am not getting married anytime soon, dating is kinda overrated anyways) which is when most girls end up going through the temple to receive their endowments. I am not planning on going on a mission, which is another reason why girls go through, and I don't have to for my job, but then again, there is no job that requires that you are endowed. So that is why I cannot attend the sealing, But you know what readers I don't care! Why do I not care? Because I would not have it any other way! I am so grateful for my knowledge of eternal families! And I know that eternal families are only possible if you get married in the beautiful, magnificent buildings dotting the earth, that are known as LDS Temples. So that my friends is the reason why I am perfectly content tending the three munchkins! Oh did I mention My cousin Hope will be there to keep me company! As if the two older munchkins won't be company enough! Haha we will have a blast though. We may just walk around the temple grounds. Or temple square, we will have to see! I have four, almost three days to figure out what we will do for that hour, give or take a little time.

That is all my ramblings for the evening. Sorry it is kinda allover the place!
