...leinan...

birthday shout-outs have not been my forte this past year. so i figure i should attempt to do so again starting with my bccffe Lei-nan.

she's 20!! watch out boys and girls!
buns and i used to write poetry via email at work when she worked at apx. in honor of the good old days...here is my attempt to wish her some birthday wishes through some verse.

dear bestest friend leinan,

you're twenty and and your hair is still long.

thanks for laying in the grass,

while leaving prints of your bum.

cruisin' at the park,

and singing luther in the car.

for the late night runs to good old del

where our eyes like to spout and we like to tell

all of our stories of woes and of boys

of school and desires or a lame-sauce choice.

life has been so great with you,

nah seriously, koo-koo-ka-choo!

all of the days when i needed a friend,

you were always there, there til the end.

i could not have been more blessed to have you,

so happy birthday baby girl! i love you!

...kickin it wit ollie...

one of the things that i love about little oliver is that he is so animated! he came over the other night and we were just taking pictures and laughing. he's so sweet! i just love him.

...hectic, hectic, hectic...

it's been a while since i have posted and i have picture and all that jazz calling my name, life however has been a little bit crazy between school and the new job at work. just wanted to let y'all know that i'm still alive and kickin, but things have just been a little hectic. hope all is well!

...i heart halloween...

so...this post is slightly late...but enjoy!

for those of you that don't know, halloween is my favorite holiday! i love it for various reasons, but mostly because when i was little i loved going over to aunty erynn's house, eating chili, going trick or treating with the cousins and just running around good ol' orem, utah. the memories from my childhood halloweens are irreplacable.

this halloween, the first part of the day, i worked and ran errands and actually had to head to school. justin leavitt and i went and ran errands in the slc and even grabbed a bite to eat. we went to dodo's at the gateway mall and it was super yummy. we even ordered pumpkin buttermilk cake with cream cheese frosting. it was so tasty! below is justin with his mexi-stache ready to eat the cake. i love pumpkin stuff. pumpkin cake, pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin chocolate chip cookies, pumpkin bread, pumpkin spice muffins...mmmmm...
later on in the day hiro, rach, yuds, soapy, kuni, and ollie stopped by to eat some chili and hangout. ollie was optimus prime for the majority of the week but when halloween rolled around he wanted to be something different. I think kuni said that he was "devil may cry" a cartoon character...maybe? ha ha...i'm not sure. Yuri-bug was a snow princess.

sophie was a mouse i think...hiro and rachel...i think hiro was a warrior and rachel was also a mouse...or a cat maybe?

after eating chili and having rootbeer floats with the family, they bounced and i got ready to go out with the cousins. we went to a dance which actually was ridiculously lame but hey it happens. i didn't really have an outfit so i was just throwing stuff on...and this was the result.

scary i know. ha ha. nah i look like an anime character...below is sarah, buns, and i. i stole this picture off of sarah's facebook. i think the caption said something like "two mechanics and an asian...no really!!" ha ha...i really am asian for those of you wondering.

happy halloween!!
