Drugs, Homicide, Domestic Violence

So seriously, I am living in a TRAILER (have been for about a month) and I just found out today that there was just a drug deal two trailers down like 30 minutes ago. Woo hoo! I just found out a lady got shot in the head from a stray bullet from a drug deal gone bad in our neighborhood last year! This last Monday a lady was screaming for help in a Domestic Violence, nobody came to her aid (we didn't hear her, it was the middle of the night), I haven't heard of anyone seeing her since, who knows where or how she is. Just so you know, we are outta here ASAP!!!! PRAY FOR US!!!

How to Create... and Prevent... RAIN!

So Brad taught me something today that I had to blog about. How to CREATE and PREVENT RAIN!!!! This is very exciting, we proved it today AFTER he taught me! We were driving down the freeway, and he said, "You know, I have discovered how to create and prevent RAIN!" I said, "REALLY? How?" He said, "in order to prevent rain, all you have to do is put RainEx on your windshield and buy new windshield wipers." Now this is completely true, as we bought them a week ago and have just been WAITING to try them out! And I said, "How do you create it?" He said, "Get a carwash!" So... we got a carwash today since our car was REALLY dirty, and low and behold, no joke, in about 30 minutes, RANDOM rain cloud doused us with water! But at least our RainEx works!!!! You should try it out!

Princess Diarrhea

Okay, so although this is short, I think it is hilarious. Tori and I were watching the Disney Channel and all the sudden she goes, "MOM?! I want Princess Diarrhea!" I said, "What?!" She said, "You know, the movie, I want to watch Princess Diarrhea!" I couldn't help but laugh... when all the sudden I thought, this would go great on my blog! So Poor Anne Hathaway, Tori thinks her movie is called Princess Diarrhea instead of Princess Diaries. The words that come out of a child's mouth, how precious!

Will the Obsession Stop?

So I went up to Provo on Friday morning (very early) to do some business in the area and to my horror, I realized I forgot ALL of my makeup! Can you believe that?! I couldn't go two days without having my makeup, so I came up with a solution. Why don't I just go get my makeup done at Nordstrom, I'll buy one thing, and have it done for the day and do the same thing the next day. Good idea, right? Wrong. I went to the I.D. Bare Escentials counter and although the lady was so nice, she couldn't do my makeup. I don't know if I'm just really picky, or perhaps my face is hard to do, or if I'm just dang good at doing my own makeup? But I ended up spending WAY too much to buy a bunch of makeup to do it myself. Brad's argument was, you already have makeup, why are you buying more? And although I completely see his point, I have purchased new makeup almost every other month lately, but the last bunch I did was kinda a scam, E.L.F. had this great sale and was supposed to be a new Nordstrom brand, but after I spent almost $50, buying all new makeup, I found out it was a cheap K-Mart brand and it just clogs my pores. So... I had to buy new make up... again. So my question is, first of all, does anyone else share in this makeup obsession or am I just weird or vain? And, do you think the obsession will ever end? I'm thinking that once I finally find the best of every part of makeup (Mac eyeshadow, I.D. eye liner and foundation, Mary Kay mascara, etc.) that maybe I will be content to buy my favorites instead of having to buy a new line of makeup every few months. Anyway, I thought this was a funny story, maybe its boring. You tell me :)

Get the Bumble Bee OUT!

So last night I was trying to figure out what to write on my blog to keep it updated for my sister, Andrea. Brad and I were driving back from Provo to our home in Cedar City. Poor Abbie (age 3) wasn't feeling well and she would wake up every half hour or so crying about something. One time she woke up and was crying saying, "My eye, my eye." I said, "What's wrong with your eye honey?" "It stings!" I looked back and her eye was watering, I'm not sure why, she probably got some dust or fuzz in her eye. Then she cried really loud and said, "The bumblebee won't come out!" I was a little confused there for a second, thinking she might be sleep talking, but then Brad clarified/translated her three year old language and way of thinking, and sure enough, she though there was a bumblebee in her eye that wouldn't come out because it was stinging. Poor girl. She's doing better today, much happier, but it is amazing how these little kids think, and quite funny at times.
