EASTER 2011

This EASTER the Cheeseman's were nice enough to invite my sister and I over! My friend Heather is like a sister to me and her family is like an adopted family! I love Easter and was very grateful to be able to spend it with family and friends!

Girls Night!

I had a much needed girls night with some of my bestest friends and my sister (who is also one of my bestest friends). We went out to dinner at Cafe Rio...made a 7-11 run for hot chocolate...had a dance party in our car...and through jelly beans through my earings! It was more like being stoned to death by jelly beans that actually trying to get them through my earings but it was still fun!

As you can see from the picture Kels is a little OCD...she organizes her movies by color and then alphabatizes them inside of each color! I am going to miss her when she moves back to California! Enjoy the rest of the pictures!

Oil Change = Scam!

I find it interesting that every time I go in for an oil change my wind shield wipers are apparently in such bad shape that they need to be replaced right that instant...and my air filter is supposedly so dirty that its hazardous to my health. Even though I just had them replaced three months ago at my last oil change!

This is the typical mumbo jumbo I go through every time I go in for an oil change!

But todays oil change takes the cake!

First off I didn't know this mechanic so I was automatically skeptical. I don't know why it is that they think girls don't know anything about cars and try and take advantage of us but they do!

DISCLAIMER: I don't know that much about cars but I know enough!

Whenever I step out of my car I can read it on their face "girl=money"

To make a long story short....the mechanic mis-qouted me on the price of new windshield wipers by $10.00 and conveniently told me this at the cash register, he also wanted me to pay $30.00 for a rock chip repair that a) had already been repaired and b) my insurance covers. Also, they wanted me to get my car in right away because I have an oil leak that is severe.....I have had a small leak in my engine for a while now and have been told it is nothing to worry about just too watch for any oil spots my car may leave. My car doesn't leave any oil spots! So I told him no thanks and vowed to never go back to that car dealership again!

Talking Instead Of Doing

"A meowing cat catches no mice."

-Yiddish Proverb

"Talk, talk, talk. Sometimes we spend more time talking about what we want to do than actually doing it. We may need reassurance that we're on the right track, or we're hoping for someone to give us advice. Or we just find it easier to talk than to actually take that first step."

I'll make sure that I'm actually doing things, not just talking about doing them.

-Linda Picone

The blog all about "Butts"

So today a patient came in with the last name of "Butts"...yup...I thought the exact same thing! This is how my entire thought process went: (I am referring to my head in two parts as I tend to have conversations with myself!)

My head:"I could never marry someone with the last name of "Butts"...hmm "Sarai Butts"...yup definetly not a name I could live with."

My other side of head: "Although, it would make for an awesome blog title... "The blog all about 'Butts'!"

My head:"I love it! I could definetly marry someone with the last name "Butts" just to have that blog title!"

The conversations I have with myself crack me up!

The Power Of Love

"Love is a powerful linfluence in our hearts in our effort to be obedient. Love for our Savior inspires us to keep His commandments. Love for a mother, father, or spouse can also inspire our obedience to gospel principles. The way we treat others refelcts to what extent we follow our Savior in loving one another. We show our love for Him when we stop to assist others, when we are "perfectly honest and upright in all things," and when we make and keep covenants."

-Walter F. Gonzalez of the Presidency of the Seventy

The little things

There Is a Power Greater Than Ours

"Recognize that there is a power greater than ours, that no matter how good a man is, he is not good enough, that no matter how wise he is, he is not wise enough, that no matter how strong he is, he is not strong enough for all of the things which he will face in life, and that there is a source of power to which he can go with the assurance that he will be listened to and that there will be a response."- Gordon B. Hinckley

"I will try to be contented with my lot, knowing that God is my friend. In him I shall find comfort. I have given my life into his hands. I am prepared to go at his call. I desire to be with Christ. I count not my life dear to me, only to do his will."

-Joseph Smith
