Cat and Mouse





The other day I noticed my cat (we call him Cat)outside concentrating on the grass, just staring at it. Ususally he doesn't focus like this... so I went to go see what Cat was doin.... and to my surprise there was a mouse (we'll call him Joe) just sitting in front of him! I think I could see poor Joe's heart beating a million miles a second. I was actually surprised Joe wasn't in Cats mouth. As I sat and watched Cat I realized he would sit and tease Joe for a little while then back up and ignore Joe. Joe would take this opportunity to run then Cat would go after him again! It was quite entertaining. I guess my cat does do more than just eat and sleep... who woulda thought eh.

Long Time No Post Eh...Yeah... Sorry bout that. :) Time to celebrate!

So last weekend (August 8th) we had A lot to celebrate so what did we do....? What we always do of course.... Go eat SUSHI! While enjoying our sushi we celebrated My moms "still cute even at 47" birthday T.J.'s "officially an adult at 18" birthday, also it was Alex's one year mark, summer semester finals were over, oh and most importantly we celebrated my room being clean! :) We also had a special treat because Alex's First companion, Marcus Hardy, just got home a week ago, looked me up on facebook and was able to meet up with us to go to sushi. It was SO much fun to talk with him. It made me miss Al SO SO SO much though.... but it was good to hear from Marcus about how happy Al is and how good he is at sharing the true gospel with the people of Arizona. It was a wonderful weekend, yes yes it was. OH and I went on a lovely 4 wooler ride with Mr. Harrison. Twas wonderfully wonderful! :)

I survived the middle east with the smiths... life is too good to me. Enshalla.

Wow.... I still can't believe that I got to go to abu dhabi... to the other side of the world to the middle east! Definitely one of the best experiences of my life that I will never forget... and if some time in my old age I do start to go down hill in my memory skills... don't worrry I have a good 30 pages in my journal that will remind me of the unforgettable time. Camel races,camel rides, getting clothes made almost giving Gabrielle a heart attack, scrumpious tea parties, mosques with burkas, church on friday, henna, talking with the locals, and of course shopping and much much more. Thank you Smiths!

elucive lucy's passport has arrived...

So... ya know how I found my old passport and I was happy that it didn't expire till after the Abu Dhabi trip.... well.... what most people don't know is that your passport really expires about 6 months before the expiration date.... So thanks to toots, harry's aunt that is very well informed, told us this little imortant fact. So kate, harry's sister who is also well informed, knew how to get the passport here fast.... so we did what she told us to do.... and wouldn't ya know here it is! Life is good...

There is a light in my room...this is strange... but i like it!

I have been missing a light for almost two years now because I pretty much remodeled my room on my own a couple years ago and I didn't trust myself with the electrical portion of it so I just didn't do it. So... I kinda know this kid... his name is Harrison Bailey... he's a nice boy(most of the time). :) In fact, He is so nice he made me go to the Duncan light store... forced me to make a decision and pick a light fixture out (hard to do for an indecisive person, but good for them). Then... he put the light up for me... it was awesome, he is awesome and the light is awesome!

J'ai trouvé mon passeport! Je t'aime! La vie est bonne!

Man Life is good! Ok so here's the story... I LOVE to travel to new far away places and Harry's family are letting me tag along with them to Abu Dhabi for Spring break... I was SO excited to get an invitation to this once in a life time experience that I totally forgot about the whole passport thing to leave the country....yeah... kind of important. I hadn't used my passport since I was 14 and I guess back then I didn't put important things in safe places so after lookin for awhile... I realized my passport was um, lost! First of all I knew I got it in 2003 so I was worried it had expired already... I was frantically looking all over for it... I finally found a copy of it which confirmed it didn't expire till May 2008!!!! This gave me A lot of hope, I told harry to go ahead and buy me the ticket because I WAS going to find that passport no matter what it took. And that is just what I did this weekend! Did I tell you life is good! I'm so excited!!!
