Back to life....

After years of Dr. Ron saying he was going to take us on a company trip he finally did. We were bummed when we found out that some of the staff couldn't go due to their husbands schedules...they were missed. We were gone for a week and it was so fun!! I don't recommend going on a "freestyle" cruise. But hey a cruise is a cruise right!! Thanks Ron and Sherri!! It's kinda long.. beware

This one deserves an explanation..after the night show we went to disco dancing. Robyn and I kept waiting for Kimball and Jason to come and for like fourty five minutes we couldn't find them. Then all of a sudden the YMCA music started and I saw Jason Running into the room with his shirt off!!! I FREAKED OUT!!! sorry for hitting you Tanya.... and this is what happened next. Those of you who know J, know this is not something he would not do. I am SOOO sorry the pics are so small.

Another one of my cute friends got married on January 30,2010. This was an exciting wedding for me because A: Most of my friends have married guys that I haven't really known but I know Chels picked a good one! Ryan Schreyer is such a catch I have known him since middle school. He has an amazing family and great friends. I know she will be taken care of. They are an adorable couple. B: It was the first temple wedding I've been to since we got married. Even though Jason couldn't make it I had my lady of the day Linds with me. C: It was my first time being in the draper temple. So Pretty!!
Congrats Chel and Ry!!

The gals



The happy couple

I Love and am going to Seriously miss the girl I once hated!!!


Lisa and I didn't grow up together, didn't experience first days of school, middle school, or Highschool. We didn't get ready for any school dances together or sit by each other at football games. No Lisa and I met a few years ago, did we like each other at first? HAHA not a chance!!

WARNING THIS IS LONG AND MAY DRAG ON, IT MIGHT NOT MAKE SENSE TO YOU BUT THAT'S OKAY.

Lisa dated a guy "we'll call him Tad" during highschool. After they graduated, like most highschool couples do, they took a break, wanted to see what else was out there. "Tad" was at the gym one day and was talking to a close friend of mine "We will call him Bryan". Now, to me Tad was very good looking and I was not attatched to anyone at the time so of course me being me told "Bryan" to set us up. To make the story short, "Tad" and I dated for like a month. Lisa found out, who I was, everyone told her we looked alike, how fun and pretty I was :) so of course she was ticked. So ticked, she wanted to run me over with her red car. "Tad" and Lisa got back together and were very happy.
Then a few months later, yes I started to date his really good friend "we'll call him Skyler" Well Lisa and I had to spend a lot of time together because our boyfriends hung out all the time. I use to bad mouth her after they would leave and say how much she bugged me and "Tad" deserved so much better. HAHA SO FUNNY!!! to look back on it. "Skyler and Ted" and their other friends planned a trip. Lisa and I were forced to be in the same car, for over 12 hours, we went to california. Forced to sleep in the same hotel room and forced to shop together (hey we got some cute shoes out of it though :) )Not the point. Over months of hating eachother again, "Skyler" and I didn't work out. Lisa and "Tad" soon broke up. One afternoon I got a text from Lisa "Hey, it's Lisa. I was wondering if you wanted to go get a pedicure this weekend?" Not knowing "Tad" and Lisa broke up, I thought this was her wanting to put salt in the wound and tell me all about the girls "Skyler" has been seeing. Muchly needing a pedi, I went.
We talked the whole time, she told me about her and "Tad". We talked about our latest flings Oliver and "We'll call him Bolt".
to keep it short, Lisa and I have talked almost everyday since.
We have shared so much in the last three years. A trip to Hawaii, doubles dates with too many boys. Lots of laughing and the occasionally tears. She has been such an example to me and has been with me through so much. We have been part of eachothers weddings (might I add the photographer asked if the sister would like to hold the bride's train while we walk to take pics, and looked at me) We get that alot and I love it Lisa is B E A Utiful inside and out. I wish we were sisters.

Over the year and half Jason and I have dated and now married Oliver and Jason have become very close as well. We got the bad news about their move a few months ago and have been worried ever since. They are our couple, we try to get together every weekend to eat, watch movies(even if they are retartedly stupid). They are our friends. We are so close to them we talk about everythig and anything. We don't have other friends like that. (sad I know) You both will be missed dearly in the Pluim's house. We will be so bored. We will miss you dearly. We will try to come visit as much as possible. I will be crying when I am on our cruise Monday morning knowing I'm not there to say goodbye to you. I will be crying the the weekend we get home now knowing you guys won't be coming to our house for dinner and another lame movie. The Dibblees will be missed. Washington is lucky to have you guys.

WE LOVE YOU!!!!!!!

Way to make you feel guilty and get chills at once...

As a Cell Phone Addict This Made Me Think...

What would happen if we treated our Book of Mormon like we treat our cell phone?


What if we carried it around in our pockets or backpacks?

What if we turned back to get it if we forgot it?

What if we flipped it open several times a day?

What if we spent an hour or more using it everyday?

What if we used it consistently to receive messages from the text?

What if we treated it like we couldn't live without it?

What if we searched for new applications?

What if we used it as we traveled?

What if we used it in case of an emergency?



What WOULD happen if we treated our Book of Mormon like we treat our cell phone?






I got this from Sarah's blog and thought it is so perfect. Everyone can put this into their daily lives. It really is mind blowing to think how different life would be if we followed this message.



How do you treat your Book of Mormon?

Think about it.

Quick Recap of 2009

O how time flies when your busy!!! J and I would have to say 2009 was a rather good year. It was fun being with someone you love for a whole 12 months and remembering some things that happened in 2008 that we shared together and did again.

January...
Nothing too exciting. We went to Famous Dave's BBQ for new years and were approached by an older couple commenting to Jason that "he needed to act fast and put a ring on this gal's finger before someone else does." Of course my funny (boyfriend at the time husband now) quickly said back "That would be akward, she is my sister." The old man knew he was kidding. Little did I know Jason would wait a flinging seven months before taking the intelligent mans advice.
My brother Brandin's birthday

Febuary...
Of course Valentine's day. To Jason, not that big of a thing. I kept telling him to call to make reservations to somewhere and he would tell me he was going to do it tonight.... Our speacial valentine's dinner was on our own special day... the day before, Jason later informed me he called everywhere on Thursday, yes Feb 12, to make a reservation, they of course, no surprise were booked. So we went to Rodizio Grill on Friday Feb 13. Probably another tradition we will continue due to my husbands lack of planning skills.

March...
My mom's birthday
Again nothing much. Actually I can't remember one story for this month. Sorry.

April...
Finally a break in Jason's toughts!! Our one year anniversary was on the 14 of April. My loving guy took me to Ruby River (our first date) where I gave him the gold and black watch that " was muchly needed on my lonely wrist" quote Jason Roy Pluim. We enjoyed a lovely dinner followed by a huge surprise RING SHOPPING!!! Finally!!
Jason's sister Rachel's birthday

May...
Dad's Birthday
Colleen's birthday
Again, nothing that I can remember. Our lives are so exciting.

July...
The proposal!! He finally decided after over a year that I was the one for him. Again he took me to Ruby River, but this time the actual same one in Layton or Ogden which ever one it is. And surprised me out in the parking lot with a dozen roses and the ring.
We later went on a long weekend trip with my dad's family to Lake Powell! where near the end of the trip my cousin Katie was proposed to.
Jason's sister Jenny's Birthday
My brother Brent's birthday

Goals for 2010 (just a few)

I have been told by many people, I won't say names... that I need to update my blog more often so one of my many goals for 2010 will be to update my blog every 2 weeks. We'll see how long it lasts. :)
...Another goal is to yes just like everyone else and their dog, lose the holiday, wedding, and everything else wait. Or at least be more consistant on visiting my old best friend Gold's Gym. At least 3 times a week.
...Keep our small home clean!! ALL THE TIME.
...I am going to school, again,and have changes my mind about what I want to do with my life, Radiology Technician. My goal is to apply for the program this fall 2010. That means yes, I will be a dedicated student. As hard as it will be I am determined to finally finish this stupid thing. Wish Me luck!
...Read the scriptures more often
...Stop swearing (those of you who know me this may be a tough one)
...Cook more at home for my favorite guy
...Try to make Jason eat normal healthy food (haha who am I kidding)
... well that will do it for now, can't get a head of myself it is almost the end of January and so far none of these goals have been met....

Better luck to the rest of you who make goals every year knowing they won't last!
