Some favorites for a Tuesday.

My first favorite thing of today is my phone. (the LG Chocolate 3) I love it. (about time, huh?) It's a fun phone, and I love all the fun features. And is has some really cool ring-tones. :) (Oh yah, it may look black, but don't let them fool you - it's blue! I have finally got over it though. :)
Of course, Dustyn own the light blue one (because I thought I wanted Black! Ha ha)


I am totally loving the Olympics and I think this girl is amazing! Nastia Rocks!

I love Bagelfuls!  Yum!  I know you are all thinking - why not just buy bagels and cream cheese?   It would probably cheaper and have less preservatives.  Hmm...  but it's just not the same!  I love pulling a bagel-ful out of the freezer and popping it in the toaster over.  The outside is crispy and chewy and the inside is cream cheese (frozen, of course!)  Mmmm.....  I'm weird I know.  I also just love pulling one out of the freezer and gnawing on it!  :)  I think they are so good and much better than your average bagel and cream cheese.  And nice when you are on the run!

I love being a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I am thankful for Eternal Families! Dustyn's Grandpa passed away on Saturday. Although it is sad, we know that we will see him again. We know that in the next life we can be together forever, if we live worthily. Knowing that I can be with my family members that have passed on and my sweet Hannah, makes me want to be a better person everyday. I love the Gospel and the truths that it shares. This is a photo that Dustyn made of his Grandfather a few years ago for Christmas. I love it.

Chet. It was his birthday on Sunday and I failed to post it. Sorry it's late buddy - not like you would actually read this and know that. :) So Happy Birthday Chet. Can you believe that he is 18 years old? Seriously, how does that happen? I think it finally hit him yesterday that he did have to go back to school today!

Seriously, how do they swim so fast?

When I swim, I barely move. (okay, so really, I can't swim)

But that isn't what my post is about. Just something I am amazed at.

So yesterday while Dustyn was in meetings for school, I went over to his classroom and set up his 20 new iMacs. What a lot of work! You wouldn't think it would be that tiring, but it took me about 2 hours to unpack all of them, pull all the sticky protective stuff off and set them up. Then it took me another 5 or 6 hours to run all the updates and set up student accounts. What a day. But it was kinda fun! I like getting ready for school. I am pretty sure Dustyn doesn't get as excited as I do about it! :)

And then, the best part of the day, one of my BFFs, Carrie and her husband Rodney, stopped and had dinner with us at Steve's Steakhouse. MY favorite restaurant! Love it. It was so fun (and always is) to talk and catch up. (Of course, the food was great too) I love that they are some of our adoption peeps. I am so glad we became friends all those years ago. Let's see . . . it's been 11 years this month. Crazy!

Another exciting thing that is coming up for us is that we are going to Disney Land with them at the end of October. I am so excited!

Oh yeah and don't forget, if you know anyone considering adoption, they are an amazing couple. Feel free to pass along their information.
