odds & ends:

Dear Readers: please enjoy the random thoughts...

Benjamin: for those of you who dont know, Benjamin is my Boyfriend. i like him a lot. a lot a lot. for some strange reason, we really have no pictures of us together.. but thats ok, i am a patient gal. i have been spending a lot of my free time with Benjamin, and when i say a lot of my free time, i mean all of my free time... i really enjoy his company! Benjamin lives in Sandy, its only about one hour away, so really its not that bad. so yep, thats Benjamin, he is such a sweetheart! i like him a lot.

Passion Pit: Thursday April 8th, Benjamin, Celeste and i went to a Passion Pit Show.. AMAZING! i love it!!!

that is one of my favorite Passion Pit songs, Sleepyhead. their music is nice and dancey.. perfect! i had such a good time at their show!

Mikey's Birthday party: mikey turned 22 on the 15th, we celebrated his birthday Fiesta style at their new Casa... mike and stacy know how to throw a good party with GREAT food! complete with pineapple salsa, yummy beans and rice and also some Carrot birthday cake (duck form of course!).

at the party we were even graced with the presence of a special guest with the last name of Westfall... i dont think i need to say much more other than perhaps give a shout out to Maggie Matrix and anyone who knows anything about Anime. HOLLA!

Palm Pre Plus: Celeste and i both have matching new phones! i love my phone so much! it's perfect for me. it syncs to Google Calander, i have easy access to Facebook, Twitter and the interhighway. it stores the text messgages in conversation format, which i love!!! horray for new phones!!!

a weekend with Becky-Sue!

my bestest-best friend Becky came up from st.g to spend the weekend with me! we had a blast!

Becky arrived on Friday night, via St.G shuttle. we treated ourselves to some YUMMY Jc Mickelson's Restaurant Prime Rib in celebration of being hungry and being together.

on Saturday, we went up to the Color Festival. after we cleaned up, becky did sister Celeste's hair for Jr.Prom. becky did such a good job on it! Celeste looked Beautiful!!!

Sunday was a relaxing day, we took it easy... not too much going on- we found a bunch of music, and planned a bit for our future trip to Europe. my friend Benjamin came down and got to meet the whole fam. we finished the relaxing day watching Wall-E & Up. excellent!

Monday was set aside to spend the whole day in SLC. after we woke up and got ready for the day, we headed up for some excellent Zupas :) we made our way to Thanksgiving Point to peruse the shops. we got a phone call telling us that the Devendra concert for that night had been cancelled due to his broken leg. after complaining a bit, we called Benjamin and luckily he stepped in as entertainer for the night. we went to see Sherlock Holmes then finished the night with some Butter Pecan Ice cream (a possible new favorite).

Tuesday is right now, and so far its great. we are enjoying the last of being lazy before we both return to work. today is the start to my crazy work schedule.

i just love spending time with my becky-sue. i miss our st.g days when we were always spending time together- maybe someday we will live close together again..and of course our business!!! :)
