American Idol

I'm so excited to see the American Idol concert next Tuesday! Its one of my favorite tv shows that I've watched since the 3rd season. I would of watched the first 2 seasons but I had issues with my tv, long story. The ones I'm most excited about seeing are Michael Johns, David Cook and Brooke White. I'm going to get there early and try to meet them, wish me luck! I'll post my experience and pics as soon as I can.

7 Random Facts About Me

Well I've been tagged by Haley to name 7 random facts about my self. At first I didn't want to do it but then I decided what the heck, it would be fun, but I've been so busy that it took me awhile to think of 7 things. Finally its done, here they are!

1. I really like the smell of coffee but I hate the taste of it, yuck!
2. I like to look at model homes for fun. Some day I would love to design my own house.
3. If I've seen a tearjerker movie 50 million times, I still cry like a baby.
4. I can't whistle, probably never will.
5. I've never seen a Rocky movie, I have nothing against boxing, I just never got around to seeing it.
6. I've had hallucinations about BIG spiders crawling on my bed in the middle of the night. Its happened about 5 times in the past fews years.

Father's Day

Father's Day was interesting. First Jake went to church by himself at 8 am because I was feeling kinda sick and the kids were coughing so I figured it was best for them not to go. I felt so bad that he was going to church alone on Father's Day. Then after sacrament meeting, Jake calls me and says he's decided to come home early because he wants to spend time with us and is lonely at church by himself. Then he tells me that his motorcycle broke down, not at the church but on the way home. Yes he drove his motorcycle in a suit, I bet he got a lot of stares pulling apart his motorcycle in the parking lot. LOL So the kids and I went to rescue him. Then we had to drive him back to his motorcycle so he could push it back home. Again I felt so bad for him having to do this in the heat, on Sunday and on Father's Day. Poor guy! But he was a real trooper and the rest of the day was relaxing. He opened his Father's Day cards and gift, we ate grilled hamburgers, corn on the cob and strawberry shortcake. But at 5:30 I had to go to work and waste my time there for 3 1/2 hours. I still felt a little sick but I thought I should still go. I work every other Sunday in the evening, I don't want to but it helps us not to pay so much in babysitting during the week. Anyways...
The girls and I made the frame and the cards and I gave him a card with Napolean Dynamite on the front where you opened it and it talks. Well when Jake opened it I realized that it said Happy Birthday, not Happy Father's Day! I felt so stupid but he really liked the card and actually his birthday is this Friday so now I don't have to buy him a birthday card. LOL
