Why mormon girls stay single

O.k. so while I was perusing several blogs today I came across this link and just had to read what they had to say. I guess these are two LDS guys that started this web site and while I don't agree with everything they have to say (girls who serve missions are freaks!) I think that between their posts and the comments this site could prove highly entertaining for anyone who has
a. been single
b. been LDS and single
c. attended an LDS Singles ward
d. all of the above

Let me know what you think when you check it out!!!

a little of this.. and that

So life has been crazy and I promise more pic (i swiped this one from Jodi as is) but Mexico and the cruise were so much fun!! I missed my honey like crazy but it was fun to hang with the girls!!
This week Jesse and I are going to see Jeff Dunham.. If you are not easily offended I find him rather hilarious ;)

I am looking forward to seeing Achmed in person... He is one of my favorite puppets!

and then on friday shelly and I are going to listen to...



for a couple of hours.. I like her sound and I am excited to see her live!!

and then to make this post completely random... a picture of my ring

someone asked me to post a picture a while back and this is the first decent shot that I have had of it...

Bon Voyage

Well first things first.. Welcome to a whole new year..Things I plan to do this year...

Minha sobrinha.. Sabrina

For those of you non Portuguese speakers... My niece Sabrina.. Drica and Madson welcomed Sabrina Rodrigues into their family in Dec. 16 (my birthday) and I am so excited!!

Drica was my favorite companion and has remained one of my closest friends (despite the distance) since we have come home!

I don't know about you but don't you think Latino babies look so much older with all of their hair?!? Nevertheless I think she is BEAUTIFUL

and to answer your question NO this does not make me baby hungry ;)

Queria dizer a Sabrina que vc e linda e tao abencoada nascer nessa familia eterna.. Eu te amo como amo sua mae e estou animada para o dia que posso conhece-la!! Estou feliz que compartilhmos o mesmo aniversario para que sempre possa lembrar te mandar muitos presentes!!!
Beijos,
Tia Jess

Hair Today...Gone Tomorrow!!

So I know that this is totally cliche.. Get married and cut your hair...But to be honest when I started growing my hair out 2 years ago I never planned on keeping it forever.. In fact, the original plan was to donate as soon as I had the 8 inches required.. (this is just a view from the front.. don't mind the scrounge outfit)

Soooo....

(Don't you love my self portraits? I had to make do with the hubby already gone for the day)

I made an appointment with Jen my Hair Stylist (who does a fabulous job by-the-way)

<<<<<>>>>>

( Please note these pictures were taken after a LONG day at work so please excuse my somewhat tired face)
vwah-lah...

I am sure my high school crew are having flashbacks of all my high school years right now..

It's just what I wanted and all the gross hair on the ends is gone and I have healthy, shiny hair once again!! What do you think of it?!?

Besides having had quite a few people who are close to me suffer from cancer and lose their hair-I thought it was the least I could do to give my hair for someone's wig!!

FYI: Locks of Love charges for their wigs so if anyone is considering donating their hair I would research for an organization that donates their wigs.. there are plenty of them out there!:)
