Pinnacle Security this is LaRee how can I help you?

So this has happened to me twice now...I go to say my prayer at night and this is my beginning, "Pinnacle Security this is"...that is a bad sign. Hahahaha. I usually don't finish the whole phrase in my head before I realize what I'm doing. Haha! How sad.

Park City

These past two saturday nights I went up to Park City where they have the Sundance Film Festival. Here's just a few pics from the trips :)

BOOTS!

So...I live in Provo, UT. Winter here is winter, not 75 degrees like in California. A neccesity for this cold weather is boots! I have a few pairs that with suffice, but if I had money to spare I would buy sooo many from this site! It's the best website I've ever seen for boots! They have ever kind you could possibly want. AND on top of that they're cheap! So if you live somewhere cold and need some new boots I suggest going here... http://www.shoeocean.com/womens-boots.html#top
Oh how I wish I could buy several pairs.... maybe next year :)

Blog's vs. Facebook

So, I think blogs are great. There's just one thing I don't get. When you get comments on your posts and you want to respond back, do you just write on your own post? I think that's weird though because whoever you're responding back to doesn't even know you responded back...so then do you go respond on their blog? No, because you would have to write a comment on one of their posts and the response would have nothing to do with their post. Have I confused you? Maybe I'm just used to Facebook and writing back and forth through wall posts. Maybe I just need to read my comments and not feel like I have to respond back and just comment on other people's blogs...
Communication these days. Things have definitely changed for my generation ;)

Paige turned 21 :)

It was my best friend Paige's 21st Birthday on Thursday and we celebrated with dinner at Macaroni Grill and then cake and icecream at our place afterwards. It was a fun night and I'm so glad to have a friend like Paige in my life. No one gets you like your best friend :) Here's some pictures of the night. We took tons!! This is probably a tenth of the amount. Me and my roomate Rachael(Paige's sister) are obsessed with taking pictures. Works out great for everyone else I think...or we're just annoying, either one. Ha!

Dove Milk Chocolates...

I'm doing two posts in one day...gosh I'm devoted(or bored at work). Anyways, this guy at work had Dove chocolates, I took two. Delicious. THEN I saw the inside little quotes they put in them! Let me share these deep deep dove thoughts with you...

"Expect only the best, the future is yours"

"Believe in yourself"

What the heck! This is perfect for my new year! Haha.

So I didn't have work Saturday and decided it was time to go sledding. All in all it was really fun... BUT I had the wipe-out of all sledding history. Me and my friend shelly decided to go down a slope that had a huge jump at the bottom. Well technically, one small jump then one big one. Well the first time we went down it we ended up falling off the tube before we went off the jump so....we went round two. We hung on for dear life for round two. As we hit the first jump and went decently flying in the air I realized then that this was going to be...interesting, to say the least. Well there came the huge jump and we went flying, tube flies out from underneath us and all I feel is air for what seemed like forever. When we hit the snow, well when I hit the snow and shelly hit me, I knew it was the BEST wipeout. I tried to laugh but nothing came out. I have never had the wind knocked out of me so bad. Everyone went silent because it looked bad, but we slowly got to our feet. I definitely hit my head really hard and landed on the side of my body in what my friend Paige described saying "you looked like a curled up phetus" hahaha. So I walked up the hill went down again with a friend walked back up and thats when it hit me...the WORST pain in my lower stomach and an increasing headache and feeling like I was going to throw up! I acted like nothing was wrong not wanting to ruin the fun, but then I couldn't take it any longer and we ended going home...I don't know how I made it to the car I was so delirious. SO long story, but here's the worst part and I have a hard time writing about it because I am so completely and utterly dissappointed and will be for the rest of my life. We were going to tape the whole thing on my camera, but right as we were going down the camera died on my friend Paige who was taping. So the first thing I said when we got up from the crash was "At least we got in on tape"...only to find out...we didn't. I haven't been so dissappointed in a long time. Okay anyways here's a few pics from the day.

2009...

I feel really good about this new year. Everything in my life is off to a good start! (Let's hope I didn't just jinx myself) My resolutions are off to a good start, I had a good first day back to school and feel like my classes should go well, I'm getting more hours at work(Desperately needed this), AND I have a date. This is a good start to 2009.

Also...I've been incredibly poor lately and my good friend and roomate Paige came home yesterday and showed me a dress she got at target, too which I replied "That is so cute", then she walks out of the kitchen real quick, comes back and says, "Good, cause I got you one too!". (It was in a different color of course, we don't wear matching outfits together don't worry) What a sweetheart! It made my day! So to top off the year I also have a new outfit for church :) Thanks to Paige and her thoughtfulness.
