Here it is...

I got the pillows/table runner at Pottery Barn, on sale and that's why none of them match :) But, that's how I wanted it. I love the color orange so I added that as the accent color. I got all the brown furniture at RC Willies and the white furniture is Ikea. Thanks for all the compliments.

As promised a boy update...will come shortly! But as a teaser, kissing was more fun in my twenties, haha!!!

I haven't been a very good blogger, so I'm trying to post things weekly. So if you're looking at this leave a comment. Who knows, you might get a boy update if you do...just saying :)

EVMCO (Eastern Valley Mormon Choral Organization)

Last night the choir I'm in had our Easter concert. It was FANTASTIC!! We sang to a sold out concert hall. It was truly a sight to see. Earlier in the week we had our final rehearsal and my friend comes up to me laughing. She said the guys think we are singing "Cheese Sauce" when we sing Jesus. We couldn't stop laughing about it the rest of the night. Especially during the song 'I Glory in my Jesus' when we sing that phrase a lot.

Getting ready to go on stage. UGH! The dresses are hideous up close, but look great on stage.

Emily sings next to me and I love her voice

Natalie encouraged me to audition for the choir.

As small group of the "Power house" back row. We sing 2nd alto and belt it out like mad! We joke around about being an oreo because I'm the only blonde in between brunettes. (I didn't get a pic of the girls who are on the right of me, who also have brown hair. )

feeling a little crafty and such

On Sunday afternoon I opened my bedroom door and saw this beautiful bird. I walked out on my balcony and was lucky enough to get it's picture. (this is my backyard, along with about 30 other condo's)

Good thing my zoom works.

This is my roommate.

My friend Valorie.

I was feeling crafty today. This magnet board use to be just plain maroon. Every time I'd walk by, I wanted to change it. So today I walked out my door and thought, "today is the day!"

I went to Michaels and bought white paint as a primer and yellow paint. Then found these stickers and went to work. The stickers were on sheets and then I placed them. Now I wish I could paint the wall!

Fiesta Bowl!

It's great that the Fiesta Bowl is in my back yard. I must say the drive out to Glendale is long! I'm so happy to have gone to both bowl games for FREE! And to have really great seats both times. Ben and I met up with some of his friends and we happened to have two empty seats next to us so we told them to come join us. The game was A-mazing!!

The view from our seats.

I need to make this blog private so I can share with you guys all the details. Ah, the world of dating! Yes, be glad you're not in it! :)
