I love...

my feather:


(but hate my nose!)


And I also love:


Our 2 minute and 41 second convo ended in me not having to call my husband for the second time this week to rescue me because I locked my keys in the car... I am however afraid that this may result in me paying an outrageous monthly fee after my free subscription runs out to continue their amazing service. You, On Star definitely saved me from going crazy and my husband's blood pressure from sky rocketing... you rock!

Easter Sunday...

David and I woke up early (by early I mean after 7:30 and before 9:00) and got house work done, I love when he's home to help me and obviously that doesn't happen often because of our different work schedules, we then decided to take advantage of the nice weather and:
-went shooting targets, he got a new gun (A-15? maybe does that mean anything to you? Yeah, me either) I love to shoot his not so big and manly guns and he's a good shot... but so am I if I dare say so myself.
-we then had a picnic... in the living room with the windows and doors open because the wind started to pick up.
-I had a nap, David tinkered around outside
-we washed our vehicles
-finished laundry
-finally it was time for dinner at Gram's, she makes some bomb food and I always love when we are invited over there. We got more snuggle time in with our new niece Maeleigh and got to bring Elise and Gaby home for a sleep-over. (I'm all Wii'ed out)
I love my in-laws (yes all of you) and am so glad David and I can spend time with them as a family since I am still unsure of my own families priorities. You'd think after a year I would be getting used to this no mom/dad awkward holiday situation but I'm not... maybe after another year... or five :)

and no I have no pictures to prove that any of the above actually did happen.

p.s. I feel slightly guilty I didn't go to church on Easter Sunday with my dad... my intentions were good but dad wanted me to "sleep in" and it apparently took priority this year. No, I don't go to church weekly, as one client told me I am a C & E Mormon (Christmas and Easter) ha I think I'll grasp that concept better twice a year than none at all, right? Right!

Maeleigh Dawn Jones...

Our newest niece was born April 16th weighing in at 9 lbs 1 ounce. What a little chunk she is and so snugly! The last 2 weeks before her arrival was killing me, I love babies and couldn't wait to steal a few too many kisses from this doll!! David got to hold her first, he totally called it as we were walking into the hospital. He couldn't get enough of her...
and naturally either could I!! Of course we had to have the "baby talk" all the way home- he thinks it's time... I am still considering his valid reasoning and wishing he would re-think my pros and cons :) He is convinced he needs a little one of his own because he's "not getting any younger, and approaching 30" (which is not for another few years btw) Either way we are so excited for the newest arrival to our family and can't wait to watch her grow up and join in on our girls nights...

such as this one...


I love these girls to death, and for some reason they love hanging out with me. It might be because we make cookies, drink soda, and eat candy until mid night... or so. But I'll bribe them as long as I must as long as they continue coming over for sleepovers :)
