Memorial Day Family BBQ- 5/28

Just wanted to post up some family pictures that we took today. Plus, I realized as I was talking to someone at church today, alot of people don't know that I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters. The first two pics are of me and Stephanie, my niece. Isn't she cute!! She's getting so big! The third is my mom, me, Tammy, Lacey, Renea and Stephanie. Lacey is the younger girl with pink on, she's Tammy's daughter. Tammy is the oldest of us sisters, actually of all the siblings. The fourth picture is Renea, Tommy (her fiancee') and Dylan, Renea's middle child. He's my Dyl-Pickle. I've called him that since he was a baby! The last picture, from left to right, is Tammy, me, and Renea. People always think I'm older than Renea, but she's 5 years older than me. It just so happens that it was her Birthday yesterday too. Oh, by the way, I am taller than both of them, but the way the ground is there at my parents I was at their level. YES! I did it on purpose :) I wanted to get the whole family on here, but the computer at my parents was being slow and not everyone got their picture taken. I'll have to take more next time.
So, now you've seen my family and my naked teeth- as Andrew is calling them!

Woohoo!!

My braces are off now! Woohoo!! I'll make sure to post a picture soon, I promise!

15 HOURS!!!

Ok, so I know that I am lame, but only 15 more hours until my braces come off!!! Woohoo!!

Salish Lodge, Social life, Someday

Ok, so I've worked at the Salish now for (stopping to count on fingers) 8 months now! Can't even believe it. I've stayed there 2 times, gotten 3 massages and 1 facial in that time. In my opinion, not enough, but it adds up! I'm so thankful for my discount, let me tell ya! Right now I'm training a new person. We're getting like a million new people for the summer. Ok, not really a million, but quite alot of new people. Just found out last Monday that our "trainer" is quiting to work for another company and so they have decided that I will train people. I really hope this means I'll get better hours. When I first started I loved starting in the afternoon, but it has really affected my social life. (What social life?!) Exactly!
I've blogged a little on my MySpace, and due to encouragement from my awesome friend Karon, I have started writing again. Maybe I'll post them on here. Not sure yet though. When I was in Junior high and High school I used to write poems, but as I got into adult-hood I started getting writers block, so to speak. I would really love to write worship songs. Someday.
Someday. That word seems to come up alot lately. I wanted Just Like Heaven again the other day and really made me think about what I'm doing with my life. It seems like I'm alot like the main character on that movie, where she "saves" her life for later. I'm tired of doing that. I want to live a full life now. Any suggestions on where to start? Last year I did something I never thought I would do. I zip-lined from a Volcano in Nicaragua. That's living life fully. I got a tattoo last year! That's being crazy and spontaneous. I wish I wasn't such a thinker, so that I would do more spontaneous things, but I'm always trying to plan everything. As my friend Chris would say "Stop thinking about it!" I wish I could. There are things coming up that I just need to not thing about and let God take control. Maybe I'll start using "just do it" as my motto.

Clark's Engaged!

Yesterday Clark proposed to Dina! Congrats guys!

Day off, Braces off!

Finally a day off today! I've been working 6 days a week lately, luckily not in a row. I love overtime! Well, at least the pay off of overtime! Sunday will be a full day of overtime, so I'm excited about that! God's really blessed me lately with my finances. He's giving me more wisdom with what to do with it. For once I have money in my savings account! It's sad that it's taken me this long! But we all have strengths in different areas I guess!
Tomorrow I go in for my first appointment to get part of my braces off!! I'm so thrilled! I just can't wait! I get the rest off on May 23rd! It's finally happening! I can't wait! (Sorry, already said that!)
It's such a beautiful day today! It's supposed to be in the mid-60's. I'm going to go for a walk sometime today. I love Seattle on days like today.
Hope you all are doing great! Let me know if you need prayer for anything!
