Work, Workout, Homework, Sleep, Repeat.

What happened last week? When I don't blog on my normal Sunday nights I forget what happend the week before by Monday. I'm pretty sure all I did was eat, sleep, gym, work, homework, repeat. with melt downs in between because I just don't think I can take another tedious research report. ( That I have been getting A's on) Holla! I Love that I only work two days a week now but those times I am not at work I am kicking my ass at the gym and then spending the rest of my day sitting at the kitchen table doing homework and its driving me NUTS! I don't have time to shoot, get my nails done or watch TV anymore. My research class is SO hard. We have to compete a research projects every two weeks for 12 weeks. The projects have to be 16 hours of research and writing a report on our findings then making a family tree for the family we researched. Family History ain't easy, I'm serious. The professor gives us this, " This persons name is this he was born about this time and maybe in this place" I only have 8 hours to research the person and sometimes I can't find everything I need, especially since all these families immigrated to America and their names changed over time. It is such a good class though! I am learning how to conduct professional research, what I'll be doing when I have my own researching business.

One night I forgot I had to feed the sister missionaries. Thank goodness I only had to bring them dinner to the Temple Visitors Center because I bought them pizza and my job was done! 



I'm also on a so called "diet" (its failing) but I had to go visiting teaching, and whats visiting teaching without homemade cookies?

It was my sister Erin's birthday!!! She is the big 2-6! She is so old. Check it:
That fanny pack though! Haha. I think I was in kindergarten showing off my lunch box and Erin must have been three. SO cute and so funny. 

Chris and I went to my sister's for a birthday party and she peer pressured me into drinking.
Just kidding, It was water. They were doing shots and made me a "blue dolphin" shot which is water. Weird.


Sunday was the Superbowl!!!!! The Patriots were playing the Falcons. Of course being from Rhode Island I am a Patriots fan! I'm a fan of everything Boston. I mainly like the Red Sox though, football is so hard to watch, they always pause the game....DAMNIT JUST PLAY ALREADY! I'm serious, Why do they run like two feet and decide to stop. Frustrating, at least in baseball they actually play. We had a party at my sister's full of food, people, and babies. The game was good and SO close towards the end. BUT THEY WON! It was amazing! I am proud to be a New Englander (except for that one time they cheated)



My Grandpa here in Idaho is in the hospital. He had blood clots in his lungs, he has a hole in his throat from working in bars when he was younger and there was a lot of blood coming out of it. Hes been in the hospital for a couple days on blood thinners and is doing better. I spent the afternoon there with him yesterday with my mom and sister and I went to visit him on my lunch break too. My office is conveniently across from the hospital so it was nice. If you are reading this pray for him that he will get to go home soon! 

Here is Amy and I just being cute.





I will now leave you with this gem:
If you don't have a snapchat you are missing out. Get snapchat and add me! alysb88, I will send you puppy pictures and my face doing weird things. You won't regret it. And if you send me selfies like this, I will screen shot it and use it against you later as seen above. 










PS: Ginger is the best of all the best Ginger's I know!!

Easter and Not Having Friends at Church

I had the privilege of teaching the Easter lesson this Sunday. I taught on the Savoir's last week on earth. I hid Easter eggs all over the room with scpritures on Christ inside them. The girls loved the Easter egg hunt because their parents say they are too old for egg hunts.  Sunday's are hard sometimes. I caught my self crying during sacrament today. well, because I have no friends. About a year ago our Ward was dissolved. I had a lot of friends at church, some who have become my best friends. My good friend Jenni who lives a block away and was really my only friend in the ward, moved across town yesterday. Another family I am friends with is moving as well. Church is the hardest place to make friends. I feel like because I don't have kids, and I'm not a newly wed, I don't fit in with any of the groups. The people my age have a million kids, and the couples without kids are kids themselves and just got married like last week, and no one has really wanted to be my

2016

I have sat and thought a lot about what I am going to say in this post. So much has happened this year, its been rough but it also has been a blessing. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger, right? I learned a lot this year. First of all the biggest thing I learned that I definitely paid for was listening to bad feelings. I learned what true friendship was, and saw the ones who cared and saw the ones who didn't. I learned about priorities and what really is important in life. I learned of death and that death is not the end. I learned patience. Maybe I didn't learn patience but I tolerated patience. I learned and always knew that no matter what happens in life that you and your spouse are all that matters. Lets start off with January. Chris was working at the juvenile detention center 45 minuets away from our house. This was a wonderful job opportunity that we both felt so good about. It started to become rough. He was gone all the time and we never saw each other. He

I like older men.

This weekend was Christopher's birthday!! My main man is 33 now, I'm still holding on to my mid twenties like my life is depending on it.  We went for a short get a way to the big city, Salt Lake City. Left the dogs with the grand parents and off we went. After I doused myself in essential oils I was calm enough to sit as a passenger in the car. I think I made my self too sick with anxiety and worry. Tears were shed for no reason in the middle of a resturant and hanging over the toilet Happened. It's either my anxiety or these fertility drugs I was taking. But I have my big girl panties on and can handle this!  The first thing we did was hit up Cripsy Cream. It's like heaven in your mouth. Lunch was at Roadizo Grill. We took our selves shopping and back to the hotel for rest.  The next morning we found a random Ward to attend to take the sacrament, stopped to take a look at the Brigham City Temple, and got back on the road. Like I said, this was a super fast trip.  When
