a blast from the past

January...
we started the year off right hanging out with all our friends. I finally got my first new years kiss by my husband. january was also the time we had decided that we should start expanding our family.

February...
My sister cassidy and her family got sealed in the Vernal Temple. We found out we where pregnant just wasn't ready to tell anyone just yet. i enjoyed having my little secret for as long as i could. we had a great party with friends for the super bowel, jensen also got his new tv.

March...
We celebrated our 2nd anniversary with a stay at the anniversary inn up in Salt lake. We went out and ate at The Mayan and did some shopping at The Gateway. We had our first doc appt and got the first image of baby prestwich. We also finally told the family.

April...
I lost my youth and turned 22 this month. We celebrated by going up to my sister lexi's house to watch her graduate from Weber state with her masters in accounting. I had my first pregnancy meltdown all because carls jr forgot my hamburger. It wasn't a secret anymore we finally told everyone about baby p.

May...
my buddy kalle graduated from SUU and we celebrated her graduation and the fact that jensen was off for the summer from school. We got new couches for our living room. 16-18 weeks pregnant and craving BLT like it was no other.

June...
we got to go to san diego with the prestwich's for a family vaca. it was alot of fun we got to go for a week stayed at a beach condo. went to sea world, san diego zoo, the temple, the beach. it was alot of fun to hang out with the fam. I also was able to go to vegas to my friend kirstens bridal shower. Found out we are having a BOY!


July...
this month was one busy month this summer.we went to the yearly prestwich 4th of july reunion at park city. Jensen went with his cousins and did some mountain biking, he came back bloody, scratches and cuts everywhere.
Our beloved Amanda left on her mission to brazil and we went up to highland for her farewell. it got very quite around the prestwich house hold now with just emilee home.
We went to Altamont for the longhorn days celebration and i also got to have my baby shower, it was a long filled day but i loved every min of it. We also went to the lake and camped out with out buddies. It was a very hot exhausting day and we didn't end up camping cause i was pregnant and couldn't stand the heat and was so uncomfortable.

August...
I went down to vegas for kristens wedding this time. It was beautiful she was beautiful and i had alot of fun with the girls again. They threw me a suprise baby shower and we ate lunch out and kristen in her hectic wedding planning managed to make me some cupcakes. You girls are awesome.


September...
we got to go to The Lion King at the capitol theater up in salt lake. It was an amazing production and i'm so glad i was able to experience it. We started to get the babies room all done with crib, bedding, clothes washed, folded and in drawers. my mom came down to help me get everything ready.

OCTOBER!!!
October has always been my favorite month anyway but now i have so much more reason to love it. We celebrated jensen 25 birthday a bunch of friends and us went to Ninja the sushi resturaunt and ate at the habachi tables. we spent alot of time together enjoying the last couple weeks of just us.
Jaxson was born on OCT 27 5 days after his due date, but i wouldn't have it any other way. we have fallen head over heals for this little boy and cant imagine what are our lives where like with out him. Jensen is a great dad who helps out with him and helps me. i couldn't ask for a better husband.

November...
we spent this month just getting to know jaxson and getting use to our new life. we stayed in doors pretty much only venturing to wal mart or to pick something up to eat. he was eating about every 2-3 hours so we both slept alot and did nothing else. The prestwich's came down to cedar this year for thanksgiving cause i didn't want to travel with jr just yet.

December...
I was able to go home early for christmas, so my dad came down and picked me up the week before and i spent time home at my house. WE got hit by the winter 2010 storm and was snowed in for 3 days. We got to meet santa clause, hang out with the cousins, and just enjoy beinghome. WE also blessed jaxson the sunday after christmas in altamont and it was a an amazing day. we where able to have alot of family there and it was just what i wanted to have.its crazy how in just one small year my whole life has changed and there is a new life in our family. I'm so excited to see what 2011 brings and see how our little jaxson will grow. Bring it on 2011.

I dedicate this house to the Griswold Family Christmas.

December this year has gone by way to fast for my liking, could be i know right after christmas i'm weeks away to returning back to work and we all know that when you are not looking forward to something it comes that much faster. I am looking forward to christmas, i'm headed home early this year my dad is going to come down and pick me up this saturday and will be gone tell the wed after christmas. Jensen is going to come up to altamont the wed before christmas and be with us then. I figured if i have maternity and i have the ability to take an extra long vaca...why not! i'm excited to go home and be with mymom and for jaxson to experience the below zero temps of good old altamont. BRR! and there are some cousins and aunts and uncles who didn't get the chance to come down yet so he needs to meet the rest of the family.

This year i put our tree up on dec 1. I am a huge scrooge untill the first of dec, my theory is we dont decorate early for halloween or thanksgiving or any other holiday for that matter so why on earth would we decorate early for christmas. I absolutly hate that stores put christmas up the min halloween gets over...SERIOUSLY PEOPLE lets not forget thanksgiving. I had to wait for jensen to have some time off of work to get my lights put up, but he did a great job on our little town home.

















This is jaxson first christmas ornament, i told jensen that we will get the year so when we are old and our minds have gone (like our parents) we atleast will remember once a year when we put it on our tree.




















Our beautiful christmas tree. it has old ornaments from when i was little, the good old home made kind. Its nothing fancy...but we all know me.


















HERE'S CHIP!!! out and about once again this year. he shares the spotlight with our tree from the window


















Here are the lights jensen put up, he had some help from our buddy jake (he owns a ladder) we have very little room to work with in our town home and if i could i would work out something with out neighbors so we could decorate more, but this is what we have and i think its cute. Atleast santa will know we live here.



I'm excited to share in jaxson first christmas and we are so blessed to have him in our lives. Being a mother is 10x harder then i thought it would be but i cant imagine it any other way now. I still have my moments which i think everyone does weather they want to admit it or not where i just wanna sit and cry cause i'm tired, frustrated and have absolutly no idea what i'm doing but one quick cry session to either my sisters mom or jensen and i'm back to normal (i'm still blaming hormones) i'm totally excited too to get to play santa this year heck i'm gonna be up anyway might as well have some fun with it. :)




HAPPY CHRISTMAS!!!!!

oh and we will be blessing dear jaxson in altamont the sunday after christmas in my parents ward. All is invited if you read this before then.

sleeping...handsom?

I just love the way jaxson looks when he is sleeping so peaceful and calm. I also love that when jaxson is sleeping mamma sleeps. i know i probably should be doing all the house work and folding laundry or something but my pillow calls my name the minute i lay him down. What can i say i am easily manipulated.

picture overload











The many faces of jaxson, so i realized that i have taken a picture of him every day for 3 weeks....thats either a good thing but they pretty much are all the same pic just different outfits. lol

really really long story

One Dark cold oct night at midnight 2 people where walking (or in my case waddling) in from the hospital parking lot.



I woke up the morning of Oct 26 knowing that night we where going to go into the hospital and getting induced. Sadly i didn't sleep so well that night cause i was over my due date and very pregnant and uncomfortable and our fire alarm decided to let us know it had low battery (even though we changed its batteries) at 5:30. I remember my mom telling me that i was handling the day really well and not being nervous or anything, but i just dont think it really hit me that Baby P was going to be there the next day no matter what.

Jensen got off work around 10:30 and i think thats when it really hit me that we where headed to the hospital. My dad and jensen where able to give me a blessing which i'm so thankful for it was everything i needed to calm me down and to let me know that it was gonna be ok. One part i'll remember forever in my blessing was being told to be patient and not get over anxious. It really does show that he knows us all personally cause i'm not a very patient person in anyway.

When we got to the hospital they checked us in and i got my iv, then they pretty much said to just try and get some rest and we will wait and see how i progress. Jensen was able to fall right to sleep but i stayed awake listening to his little heart beating away and wondering what he would look like? If he would have any of my features? I was able to get a couple hours of sleep then the contractions started, at first i didn't really know what they where i thought they where just bad cramps then around 4ish they started to get really regular and the pain was getting pretty bad. I wasn't able to wake jensen up cause i couldn't move off my bed and i had nothing to throw at him. (yes i even tried texting him hoping he was sleeping on his phone) , i finally yelled his name loud enough i guess he heartd me and woke up and was able to help me get through the contractions.

I was able to get my epidural around 6ish and i have no idea how anyone goes through labor with out one of these things. It makes all the difference in the world, i wish i could get one around that time of month every month. I loved the guy who did my epidural too, i dont know if it was just the moment i was in or what but he had that soothing fatherly voice and touch that i felt like i should of invited him to thanksgiving dinner. I was so scared about moving while they did my epidural i made jensen hold my hand so i could channel all my energy into squeezing his hand. (i think he was suprised at how much strength i can channel.) After my epidural i was really able to get some sleep, i made jensen stay by my bed so if he feel asleep i could hit him. (i know i'm mean) Now i know somewhere in this time during the night Dr gatherum came in and broke my water...i dont really remember but i think it was right after i got my epidural after i got my epidural i think i blocked everything out cause i was in love with it so much.

They woke me up around 8ish to check me and started the pitocin. I dont know what it was but being on the epidural and laying on my back or the pitocin something really got me hyperventalating, i couldn't catch my breath and my whole body was shaking. They ended up putting me on oxygen and flipping my body to my left then to my right trying to get me to calm down. Turned out the pitocin was working really fast cause before i knew it i was fully dilated and ready to push. NOw this next part is from what my mom told me cause i think i just tuned everything out and i dont remember one bit of my actual labor part. She says that right when i got fully dilated the babies blood pressure dropped really low and was having me once again switch from my left side to my right, they also had me get up on my hands and knees and then back again on my left side. (how i dont remember all this is beyound me) They had called in the c-section nurse cause if his blood pressure had dropped any more i was to be rushed to the OR. Luckly my Doc got there and we started the pushing process...I pushed for a grand total of 6 times and little baby JAXSON TODD PRESTWICH was born at 9:38 Oct 27.



I remember the first time i saw him, they layed him out on my chest after he was born and i couldn't control myself i burst into tears, i couldn't stop looking at him and how perfect he was, he looked me straight in the eye like he knew who i was and this new emotion of love that i have never felt before all of a sudden was part of my life. I am so thankful and truly blessed that he was has been trusted to jensen and i to bring up. He got his first bath and he loved getting his hair washed he finds it relaxing i think. he cries the whole time he is getting a bath but the minute he gets his hair touched he just quites down and closes his eyes.




He has been a really good little boy, he hardly cries and when he does its one little scream to get my attention and then he is done. He is a really good sleeper too which i'm very thankful for. He probably wakes up around 12 and then again at 6, he loves his sleep. (he got that from his momma) Its been great learning from him and getting to bond with him. I couldn't ask for more.

One year older....

My dear old hubby is getting old. He turned 25 on Monday Oct 11. He had to work on his birthday but we went out on saturday with a bunch of friend and went to a restaurant here in cedar city called NINJA. Now this place i think is amazing its a japanese sushi restaurant where they do the cooking show in front of you on the habachi tables. It was alot of fun i had a good time and i think jensen did too. Happy Birthday Sweetie, I love you and cant believe your so old. :)

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!!


Our one friends told the waitress behind jensen back that it was his birthday, and at ninja they walk around the restaurant banging this gong and then stop in front of you and sing happy birthday. The look on jensen face explains his feelings perfectly.

My get me through these last few weeks list...

What i'm looking forward to about not being pregnant...
  • Being able to sleep on my belly. I never realized how much i was a belly sleeper but I swear if i could just roll over onto my belly at night i would be able to sleep through the night in a coma

  • Being able to walk short distance w/o being winded. and by short distance i mean from my car in the walmart parking lot....to the actual walmart front door.

  • HAMBURGERS!!! I havn't been able to eat anything with hamburger meat in it sense 26 weeks. It made me sick and gross for hours after, i'm sure looking forward to my first big mac.

  • No more weird urges to cry over baby shampoo commercials. You think i'm kidding....not kidding.

  • Being able to JUMP into bed. My first big plan (when i'm all healed of course) is to literally jump into bed. It may seem like such a small thing but i cant help it, i'm a bed jumper.

  • Getting my sinus's back. I have had the worst allergies being pregnant, and i cant wait tell whatever it is in your nose that swells up and gets unbreathable is gone and back to normal. (ok maybe this one is allergies and not being pregnant but i'm still looking forward to it.)


What i cant wait to do with baby P....
  • Finally getting able to hold him. I have carried this kid around for 9 months and i cant wait to hold him and snuggle
  • Playing dress up. I know its like playing house but with a real life human being, but i just cant wait to put him in all the outfits and clothes that we got for him. His little basketball warm up, cowboy boots and carharts, and of course his "i'm the next edward cullen onsie.
  • 12 weeks of good quality bonding time. Yes thats right no work for 12 weeks.
  • Getting to watch jensen be a daddy. I'm so excited to see jensen become a daddy, i really hope i'm able to watch jensen see his son for the first time (i'm hoping for tears) I cant wait for his first poopy diaper he has to change and when he gets pee'd on. Just being able to watch him bond with the little guy.
  • Just being able to be a mom. I'm so excited to be a mom, i'm ready for it and its all i have ever wanted, i'm so excited to know that i made this little guy and helped him grow. I'm so excited to start my family and share this experience with jensen
I am now 37 weeks, and have 3 weeks left in this pregnancy. The poor guy is getting so cramped in there and has decided the best place for his foot is right under my ribs. I can now feel every little elbow, foot, body roll and it literally will take my breath away. (not in the aww thats so sweet moment either) We are feeling really good we have been having some braxton hicks but nothing more then that. At my last doc appt i was dilated to a 1 but no more sense then he says i am right on track and still looking at our original due date Oct 22. At work i snuck back and had an estimated weight and they estimated about 7 pounds give or take. I'm just hoping i dont have to give birth to a 10 pounder. lol I guess he will come out when he is gosh darn ready to come out.

i'm feeling a bit blue....

We also got his room all done....well kind of. We ordered the crib and i'm picking up the bedding this weekend but we got it painted and all the decals put up. I think its just cute and yes jensen won yet again and got the sports theme he said every little boy should have. All in all i think its a cute little boy room.


From this dark and plain room.......tooo........



A little boys sports haven.



We painted 2 walls light blue and then put up sports balls decals. i really like the way it turned out and its made me want to paint alot more walls in my house. (jensen isn't too excited about that one)

over protective mommy

We finally got a way to get the little guy home. I was almost freaking out thinking we wouldn't even be able to get to bring him home after he was born. I really like the ones that we got it took me forever to decide what kind i wanted, the style, the colors, if it was safe enough to protect him. I know its just a car seat and stroller but yes i was the over protective mother (and his not even born yet) But i'm really happy with the one that we got and i'm just so excited to put him in it and bring him home.





(and yes thats a basketball, jensen says it will go with him everywhere) :)

what happens at our house....doesn't always stay here

Last night we had a bunch of friends over to have a bbq and just hang out for the night. We had a good time jensen whipped out the grill, we played some games and just hung out. It was fun to hang with everyone and enjoy the night. Some how sometime during the night all the boys got this idea to shave their heads. I dont know how it happened exactly but it started with one and then just kept going after that, next thing i know everyone has a bald head and a silly grin.





The new cedar city gang everyone better get off the streets when this boys are out and about. :)



Oh but atleast jensen was nice enough to put my innitials in his head.....oh wait his are the same as mine.
No turning back after the first cut.

Baby Ideas

ok so i'm just sending this out to the world hoping someone will help me with all this baby stuff. I get so overwhelmed when i sit down or go out to look at car seats, strollers. There are just so many options, designs, safety stuff to think about that i cant think anymore. If anyone is out there in the world let me know what you guys bought and like. I would really like the oppinions.

THANKS!

*warning*

I warn you know if you hate bugs, things that crawl, and really big not normal in anyway bugs do not look below. I found this bug siting outside my house....sad thing is its not the worst one i've found and they have been inside. I have been stuck on the kitchen counter cause of these ugly things. i am no fan of any kind of bug....but what is wrong with you cedar city why on earth can you not make normal BUGS!!!! These bugs came along after the ninja turtles got done with their mutan transformation and these bugs thought it looked cool, but i swear to you if i see one more nuclear mutan sized, weird shaped, creepy crawling man eating BUG i might just flip out at the first thing that talks to me or cry while i wait for jensen to get home so i can get off the kitchen counter.



****WARNING PICTURE AHEAD******

my favorite thing....

sense the beginning of my pregnancy i have been getting a lot of leg cramps and well i cant stand the texture of bananas so i wont eat them to help. ( i know i'm pathetic) but this stuff has been my favorite thing, i put it on right after a leg cramp and it just helps sooth the pain and helps the sore muscle after. Jensen loves it after basketball games just to help relax his muscles. I'm not kidding this is the best stuff ever invented.

To the center of the earth...

Do you all think i have fallen off the face of the planet. I didn't realize how long its been sense i last posted, i'm am sorry I dont even know if i can update on everything thats going on. I will try.
Back at the very beginning of june jensen and i went to san diego with jensen's family and had a blast. We went to a padre's game, sea world, the zoo, and well of course the beach. We stayed in a beach condo for a week. Jensen would wake me up every morning to go for a walk on the beach (early in the morning We found a couple Tide pools and i loved sitting there and watching the fish and plants. I loved watching the sunset over the water, watching the sea lions do their thing, hanging out with the family. It was a great trip to take before amanda left on her mission. We went to the san diego temple which was amazing, that temple is beyond words. THe time that we had decided to go they where doing some cleaning on the outside of the temple so they had construction going on the outside all the windows where covered up, i kept telling jensen that we should get married there cause i thought it would be awesome to have the construction in pic...(i know weird) The rest of june passed pretty quickly i cant really remember anything else going on that we did.























For July 4 we went to park city with jensen family this year and did the park city thing. Jensen and the boys went mountain biking and had a blast. Jens came back with more cuts, blood, bruises, dirt, sweat and anything else you could think of then i've ever seen, he keeps telling me that he has a new hobby, I still think basketball wins. We had a good weekend swimming, hanging out with family, playing games and of course shopping at the outlets. :) We also had Amanda leave for her mission to Brazil, she flew out to the MTC in brazil and then will go straight to the field from there. She will be missed and its gonna be weird going to jensen house and not having her there but she is meant to be out there so i guess we will all deal.


We got to go home for longhorn days which i love being able to do. We went up and watched the parade and got loads of candy, the good thing about having so many neices and nephews is i could just sit there and have them fetch me candy. i'm such a mean aunt :) jensen says that you have to wear a hard hat while watching altamont fireworks and its like being in a war zone. We Finally got to have a baby shower too and i feel alot better about not being prepared. lol. I got alot of stuff i wouldn't have even thought of and tons of cute outfits. Baby Boy P got his first basketball outfit w. shoes which jensen loves. (obviously) I love the baby carhart coveralls he got and cowboy boots. My sisters did an amazing job at throwing this shower and i couldn't thank them enough for it. I love you guys and couldn't thank you enough. It was a great shower and i'm so excited to finally have atleast some stuff for him.

Baby Boy P and I are doing great, he is starting to kick ALOT and i can sure feel all of them. Its weird for me too cause i can sit and watch my tummy move and ripple everytime he kicks me. I love feeling him kick but i can help but think of breaking dawn and thats when it freaks me out. (yes i just related my pregnancy to twilight, dont worrie its not the first time) Dont ask for any prego pics cause i havn't taken any and prolly wont ever take any. :) I am now 27 weeks pregnant and after my next appointment i will be to the every 2 week appointment stage. Latly the Baby P has decided that he doesn't like the taste of hamburger meat, everything about it seems to get to me, watching it cook, the smell, the taste, so instead of trying to force him to eat it i have given it up, i'm now a chicken kind of girl so if you have any good recipes dont be shy. :)

I guess i just wrote a novel instead of an update. I'll try and do better. We are doing good waiting for school to start our summer is slowly coming to an end and i wish i had more of it to do what we need but i'm ready for the heat to go away. :) i will try to do better at posting coming up but dont hold me to it. xoxo

No more monkeys...

So the past couple of days i have really started to feel pregnant, I am starting to show which means alot of my clothes wont fit me anymore, so if you ever see me and you notice my top button of my pants not done up...its on purpose. :) I just might have to suck it up and get my booty into some stretchy belly wrap maternity pants.
This week I got to feel him kick, i was laying in bed almost to the point where i'm so close to the dream world when i felt my first little nudge. I really didn't think that was what it and then i got my 2nd little nudge which confirmed it all. I texted jensen (who was just downstairs watching tv, yes thats right i texted him) and he came running up stairs all excited. Sadly i think the little guy found a comfy spot to sleep after his 2 nudges that he wouldn't let daddy feel it either. I have felt a couple more right at night when i'm just about to nod off for the night, he is just making sure momma knows he is there.





Oh and did i mention that we found out ITS A BOY!!! Yes it has been confirmed that there will be a little jensen running around (watch out world) Everytime we walk into the baby section or we are online looking at anything baby he gets really excited when it has a football, basketball, even soccer on it. His vote is always for the sports related one. I have tryed so hard to get a Peter pan Nursery but i think its gonna be more basketball then flying.




We went and decorated our spare bathroom last weekend for the little guy (really its more i have waited 2 years to have an excuse to buy the cute little kid shower curtain and jumped when i had my first excuse) It has now been monkeyed out, there is monkeys everywhere on the curtain, the towels, the nightlight and a toothbrush holder the little mat thing you put outside the tub (yet again we dont need a toothbrush holder but it just finished the look and little kid dream to the bathroom)In a couple of weeks we are headed off to california for a prestwich vacation i'm really excited to get work off for a week and be able to relax it might finally be summer. So that is about it for our lives down here more updates to come.

oh baby oh baby!

So i'm gonna blame this all on the water system out in the basin cause really there is no other explanation for all of us. :) I have joined the big baby boom of the basin, i'm 16 weeks prego and due in Oct.
Right now i'm on the mending of the 1st tri i'm starting to get my appetite back and craving BLT almost 24/7 I would get a little sick but nothing to extreme, jensen really liked the fact that if i couldn't finish my dinner he would get 2 dinners. (he is a prime example of sympathy weight, haha) I pretty much lived off of potato chips and coco moo (chocolate milk) I love having the excuse to take a nap on the weekends and there is nothing you can do about it I also love that no matter what happens i can just say "well i'm pregnant" and i can get away with almost anything, i might try to rob a bank. . :) We are really excited for us to expand our family, even if kloe isn't as excited as we are.


Let me give you a little update real quick in april it was my 22 birthday and we went up north to my sister Lexi weber state graduation. She graduated with her masters in accounting and i'm so proud of her, it was a great weekend we did some shoping, i cryed over a lost cheeseburger and finally saw Avatar (really not that impressed with it) It was exactly what i wanted to do on my birthday just hang out with my family and be with everyone. Jensen got me some new couches for our living room, i have never been so excited. i'm telling you i am dreaming about these couches cant wait tell they get delivered and i can sit and do nothing on them.
In a couple of weeks jens and i will be taking a family vacation with the prestwich family over to california for a week, I'm excited to do absolutly nothing for a week and just lay on the beach and burn like a lobster..cause lets face it us redheads dont tan. Well thats about it for our update i'm sure there is alot more to talk about and i just cant think about all of it right now. I guess there will be more as the months go by.

our little pup is 1

A couple weeks ago our little kloe turned 1. i wanted to show how much she has changed in this year. She still is just as nervous and scared of people as before, i'm starting to think we need to go and get her some doggy drugs for nerves every time we have to leave her alone. She has been a great dog though everything included and i am fully attached to this pup. Its nice when jensen works really late at night to have kloe climb up on the bed with me and snuggle up to, it makes me think someone else is in the house and i'm not alone. She is jensen dog though, she loves jens and gets so excited when he gets home. Our little pup has turned 1 year.

ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!

We just celebrated our 2nd anniversary on March 7th. This year all we wanted was a get away from cedar city and just relax. So we got a room at Anniversary inn up in Salt Lake, the swiss family robinson room. It was a pretty sweet room the bed was up in a tree house and the shower was a waterfall. (a literal waterfall) Its a good thing we had sasha (our GPS) cause there was no way we would have found this place by ourselves. The outside of the building was really like this ghetto old warehouse type building, we couldn't find a sign untill we turned into the parking lot, but in true romantic fashion the minute you walked through the front door there was cookies waiting for us, a nice friendly receptionist, water bottles they had candles everywhere in the front area and roses/flowers, oh it was wonderful. We checked in, ordered our breakfast for the next morning and headed up to our room. (i wanna point out we passed the twilight room and i really desperatly wanted to break into that room, maybe edward was in waiting in there for me) This place goes all out we had cheesecake and apple cider all ready and waiting when we opened the door. We decided we would eat at the Mayan and drove around for like 1 hour trying to find out where the heck it was (sasha didn't do her job here) We woke up on sunday and unfortunatly we had to check out and leave our sanctuary tree house. We did a little bit of shopping ate lunch at my favorite place Joes Crab Shack and then headed home. I had a great anniversary it was nice just to relax and do nothing and get out of cedar.

In true jessen fashion i remembered my camera but forgot the battery which was at home charging. Oh Mother you have cursed me. So i didn't get any pictures of anything.

Colbie Calliat Concert

On friday i went down to st. george and went to a concert with megan. I had to leave right after work but i made it in god time. I went with megan and a bunch of friends for a girls night concert. i didn't get a whole lot of pictures but i had alot of fun it was nice just to get away for the night with the girls, cause there was no way i would have got jensen to go to her.
