4 Great Laughs!

So I turned on my computer tonight and I decided that I would look through my I - Photo library and I came across these pictures. Yes, they are random however, they made me laugh......... The first picture is a picture I took myself after Nikki was done my toes. I have to say nothing feels better than fresh painted toes. I could have a pedicure everyday if NIkki would let me. But she wont, so I have ugly toes right now.... You do good work Nikki, thanks! The second picture is a picture that was taken at Karlene's house. This is what Karlene did to my hair, need I say more?? This is what a friday night looked like to us. We loved our comfy clothes, some kind of movie, and apparently putting my hair is tiny pig tails. This picture will always make me laugh. I don't think i need to say much about the next two pictures however, John and Kelly have the craziest faces, I am not sure if i just had my camera at the perfect time or if these face are that of which they pull all the time. However needless to say these perfect memories brought my laughs today and I wanted to share them with you guys! ENJOY!

THOUGHTS

So I spent my morning at the college preparing myself for next semester, following that i decided to come home and relax. as i turned on the TV to watch Season Four of Prison Break I began to notice floors, carpets and windows that could be cleaned. I started striping my bed and doing laundry and just plain old cleaning. I then decided that it was the Christmas season and i should start some baking. So I decided i would make some Muddy Buddy's (leslies recipe) and Toffee. It all turned out really great. I will be taking some to my neighbors as well as the girls at work. I started thinking more and more as I was baking and I decided I need a change! I am not sure what kind of a change or what exactly needs to change but i know that i will need to do it soon. I am in a comfort zone and I need to spice it up! As you can tell this blog is nothing to serious except that today was a day to myself and I completed a lot. However hopefully my next post will be something more positive, maybe the change I made. As for now I am going to go run!

Christmas!

Merry Christmas Jacobs' Family 2009

Christmas happen on December 12th this year for us Jacobs'. We were blessed this year to share Christmas with my brother Jim and sister in law Leslie. Not only did we get to spend it with them but niece Tralee and Nephew Hunter! There personalities were a great addition to our Christmas spirit. Tralee added new words to my vocabulary, we are a lot like each-other, we just make up words and they seem to stick. Hunter is thee happiest baby ever. Always smiling and laughing, a perfect fit into the family. I guess I felt or I need to or wanted to write a blog on Christmas because this year even though we had it on the 12th of December we had family spirit. We had our Grammie Jacobs over on both Friday and Saturday and we enjoyed great food and games. No one hardly left the house we just enjoyed every ones company. I used to think, oh another Christmas come and gone. But the process of preparing a Christmas is hard work. With no one living at the parents house except the parents, I should really add what a great host our Mom and Dad ( Judy and Ross) were this year and not just this year every year. Mom (Judy) was amazing she had all the food planned out and was great with the kids. Dad (Ross) is always the entertainer. Always getting the crib games going and transporting Grammie J from her house to ours. They both worked extremely hard to have the basement set up for everyone, as they are still in renovation mode from the summer. Everything was just great. My brother Jim also made the most beautiful bathroom vanity anyone has ever seen. That man is extremely talented. Christmas morning was amazing everyone around the trees in the basement and enjoyed watching peoples expressions opening there gifts. I would have to say my favorite gift of all was sharing that day with my family. I hope my other brothers and sisters who get to share Christmas with Mom (Judy) and Dad (Ross) will enjoy it as much as we did. I know this Christmas I learned Christmas is not a date, it isn't the 25th of December that matters, you could have it in July. It is the Spirit and thankfulness of the season in your hearts and surrounded with your loved ones that makes Christmas, Christmas. Merry Christmas to all! As it is the best time of year. Thank you Jim, Leslie, Tralee, Hunter, Nikki, Mom, Dad, Grammie J, and Cammi Christmas was a blast because of all you!

Birthday Bash!

Sorry for not posting in a couple weeks, it is just in november it gets busy with birthdays and especially mine. On friday the twentieth Dallas, Me, Ken, Chantel, Andrew, and Brityn went to The Keg Steak house and enjoyed a proper dinner. It was also Andrews birthday on the 20th and mine on the 24th so we combined our birthdays! We got around to opening presents and I opened an Ipod touch from Chantel, and 2 hour massage from Andrew, perfume, movies and gift cards. It was such a great time. Also on my birthday tuesday the 24th I had cupcakes, cards and flowers delivered to my door. I just couldn't ask from a better birthday or friends to celebrate it with. My family came in later the week and we enjoyed dinner together at Osho's sushi shop! I just think i was lucky enough to spend me birthday enjoying everyones company! Thank you so much for all the wishes! Pictures to come!

Hurricanes Game!

On tuesday we bundles up and headed out to the hurricanes game! It was a lot of fun. The reason why i posted this picture is because this is the outfit i was wearing and at the time, we had a guy by the name of Chris, who was not all there in the head i am sure, he came down to where i was sitting and asked me for my number. I replied with i usually don't give out my number but i will take yours? He then said well it is 911 cause i am smoking hot! I bursted into laughter but the look on his face should me he was serious. He then said is there anyway you would want to come out for a bite to eat after the game........... and after a long pause added hunny? once again I couldn't hold it in, before i could answer he kept them coming. You have a beautiful smile. How come someone like you doesn't have a man? oh my before i thought i was going to die of laughter I decided I would tell him i have a boyfriend, and the look on his face about killed me so i then told him my friend Chantel was single and i would move over so he could sit by her. Needless to say she hated me for it but it was so funny. by the end of the game he was standing in front of my and I said good bye to him and he said can i please have your number? I like you he said. So I said sure and I gave him Chantel's number. HAHA He wanted to make sure i gave him the right number so he asked Andrew a boy who was with us and he agreed that was my number. Chantel has no idea we gave him her number..........

last night, today, and this evening...

Well last night we had some friends over and played some massive guitar hero, we brought down the house. I of course don't play on hard or expert but sure enough graduated to the medium player category. After we decided that we couldn't stare at the T.V any longer we all jumped in the car and headed out to the open road for some random destinations. It all started with coaldale, it seems easy enough to get there but we started on a gravel road on the west side and ended up there. From there I decided to go see the correctional center and jail. it was crazy, i thought it was huge but then i remember i saw Utah's state penitentiary and realized it was small. From there we decided to hit up Park Lake, so we made our way down the road and when we reached there we decided to take back roads and ended up over by paradise canyon. So as a result we pretty much touched the four corners of our city. There was no point to it really but Chantel, Ken, Andrew and I decided it was in the fun we were going to have getting there. We got home about 5am and it was definitely time for me to sleep. I woke up this afternoon, yes thats right not morning after noon and right away got started cleaning,dusting,mopping, sweeping and of course laundry. I decided i would cook Aunt Sherrie's famous hamburger soup, so i began chopping and frying and added it all in the crock pot. After my cleaning was done I decided i would whip up some Red Lobster biscuits and serve those with the soup. I just finished up cleaning up supper and have to say it was delicious, and there is left overs for tomorrow. As of now the calgary flames are playing and I am going to go cheer them on, and after that we are about to rock out to Band Hero, it is the brand new game of rock band and guitar hero combined.................. I hear some FREEEEEE FALLLINGGGG song calling

Jaylene, Ryder, & Skylee

Here are a few pictures, these are my best friends kids. I pretty much have been there through Jaylene and Ryder's baby days. I pretty much adopted them as my own. I also have on more than one occasion told Karlene (mom) that I get her kids if anything happens to her. Karlene got married 2008 and welcomed another beautiful baby in to there lives, her name is skylee, she truly is a miracle baby. I guess i wanted to post something about these amazing kids cause I have to see them grow up and now am seeing them grow up over face-book. Just like my own nieces and nephews. I have been attached to these kids from the day they were born. I most times call them my own. I just want them to know that I love them and just cause Aunty Chan Chan is not around as much as i used to does not mean i dont love them. I dont think that i am emotionaly stable cause i am crying as i am writing this blog. I would do anything for these kids as they are undeniably amazing children. Karlene and Karim are blessed to have such beautiful children in there family..... Just a memory that makes me laugh when i think of them.

Jaylene- I heard her singing at the top of her lungs one day so i decided to peek down stairs to see what it was she was singing and as i peeked through the stairs i saw Jaylene's leg wrapped around a pole and her head thrown back singing " hey hey you you I dont like your girl friend" and i just bursted out laughing......

Ryder- first this kids has or had a fasination of sitting right on my face if i was ever laying down and when you sat he would not hold still her would bounce up and down right on my face. I didnt think it was so funny but he thought that it has hilarious and just to hear his little laugh was precious. Also with ryder since he was probably a day old i drilled into his head Chan-Chan and no i was not the first name he said but the day he called out my name in the car was a happy day.

Skylee- My memory of her is when i held her for the first time, i knew i was holding a miracle baby. She has made a amazing recovery and I am so glad as she is a great addition to their family. I cant wait to get more memories with her.

Needless to say these children have been a major part of my life and i hope that will never change... Love you Baby Jay, Ryder Roo, Sky

Sisters...

Having a sister is like having a best friend you can't get rid of. You know whatever you do, they'll still be there.

To: Sue, Ade, Leslie, Cassi, Joni, Cammi, Nikki

Sisters are one of life's many treasures, ones that are taken advantage of, but still there when life falls apart. They are molded so nothing surprises them. They know how to fight back when someone has upset them and they no how to apologize when they have done wrong.When mom and dad don't understand, a sister always will. A dedication to my sisters, wishing we all could be together.

VAY-KAY...

So on sunday we drove up to calgary with intentions to see Aerosmith live and ZZ Top opening up for him. After driving the streets of calgary getting some what lost we found our destination. The concert was at 4pm and we arrived at 3:40pm to an empty parking lot. So we had to make phone calls after phone calls and find out what was happening. We found out Aerosmith rescheduled and it will not be until later in november. So we (chantel and I) decided to make a VAY-KAY out of it. I know calgary is not that far but we decided to stay the night and just have fun in calgary. I was driving and if anyone has driven with me I sing and dance at the top of my lungs while in the drivers seat. So i was just enjoying my time away for work. We both work at St. Therese Villa and love our nursing jobs, so us going to calgary was a vacation to us. So we hit three malls and spent about $400 dollars alone in lulu lemon, and once again if anyone knows me they know that lulu's are my passion as well. I own a lot of them. it is an addiction. Then we decided to hit up Flames Central and walk the streets of down town calgary. it was pretty. They had Christmas lights already up and and we decided to start snapping pictures. We then checked into our hotel and decided to hit up a movie. We went to the Famous Players Theater and watch Couples Retreat, then returned to our hotel room and had some dancing and then we crashed. I was the first asleep but how ever i worked saturday morning from 7am-3pm and then return back at work at 11pm that night and worked till 7am. Then when i arrived home after worked we showered and headed to calgary so i was a tired girl. The next morning we hit up two more malls and a country decor store that i love and headed home to be a work for 3pm. It is a fun adventure and was able to snap these shots......... Enjoy

So it is november.......

So it is november.... i guess i was right when i said it was going to be november before a new post. Well i am officially becoming a Nursing ... I fell in love with my job and have learned so much i am completely passionate about my job.... each day at my job is a challenge, excitement, fast, on going learning, but all in all it is an absolute life changing job. I love being able to be in someone's life and knowing i am doing everything possible to ensure each-day comes. I experience death numerous times and I cant wait until i can experience the birthing as well... As for love life. it is going... I have met tons of amazing people and have gone on dates but i enjoy them being in my life as my friends for now, i am just so busy with work and school i just like to have them to turn to when i need fun instead of adding to my list.... i know it is a dumb way to look at it but i am giving my job my all as i know it will be rewarding... I guess that is really all. i am still working out, not as intense as i used to but i am still shedding the pounds.....

For some reason I decide to leave months between each post, and i apologize, but at the rate i am going you will get your next update in november. I am on a weekend away in Kalispel, Montana. It is a lot of fun and I am enjoying the shopping. It just does not get any better than states shopping. But I also have enjoyed the weather, For the last two months I have been Running and working out in the freezing cold of the great white north. However today I strapped on my running shoes and hit the running path near some baseball diamonds and started to sweat just from the heat. I enjoyed it needless to say. Something about children laughing, sun beaming, and a open path is exactly what I needed.  I have found my greatest stress relief just from working out. I have a great friend Brittany who also loves to run and we put the Ipods in our ears and run together, stopping to laugh at each other or pushing each other to keep going. If any of you can picture it i often crank my Ipod and start to dance right in the middle of the path and brittany does not shy away, she smiles and jumps on in. It has been truly great to have the pleasure of having her more involved in my life. I also am enjoying my job and have some eye candy, that I have been hanging out with and have enjoyed the company of him as well. It is crazy how life can feel so simple and blissful, but for some reason extremely stressed.

New Life!

Well I sat here watching Twilight and all the sudden remembered I had a blog that may need some updating, I have been slacking and so much has changed since the last blog. Well colby and I are no longer together, dont be sad, we didnt have the same future in mind or in that matter standards.

I thought I would update this and let you all know I am exploring my option and hitting up the texts books in september to become Judy the second, I will be takin my nursing and enjoy my twenties.
