This blog post is going to be kinda random. I have a lot of little things I want to blog about that don't necessarily relate.
Jer
and I had a fun weekend, I helped put on a baby shower for my good
friend Chelsie and got some great ideas for future showers.
#1.
Having the shower be an open house and putting out materials for
everyone to make hair accessories for her baby girl. It worked out so
well and it was fun for Chels to take home some darling accessories made
by her nearest and dearest. No melting candy bars into diapers at this
baby shower! ;o)
#2. Using gifts as decoration:
Our
friend Ashley had the idea of buying a few little gifts for the baby
and putting them out as decoration. Way better than streamers in my
opinion!!
#3. New uses for melon!
I
found this idea in my most recent GH magazine. I took a honeydew melon I
got from my Bountiful Basket and scooped it out. I made a skinny slice
off the bottom so the melon would stand up and filled it with flowers!
You can do this with a mini watermelon or cantaloupe.
After
the shower, our friend Eric invited us on a hike up to Squaw Peak. WOW.
It was tiring. But really fun. It took us 1.5 hours each way so a total
of 3 hours. The view from the top was breathtaking, but let's just say
my legs were VERY sore the next couple days.
Job interview....BUT
MEGA Flat tire!!!!!
I was on my way to my job interview and hit some nasty traffic
getting on the freeway (all you Orem people know what I'm talking about.
I sat at ONE light for 20 mins.) I had left a full hour early in case I
hit any traffic or got lost. I finally got on the freeway with 20
minutes until my interview and one exit before I'm supposed to get
off...my tire explodes. For real. I mean you can see the above picture.
Anyway, I got off the exit, Jer had to come to the rescue, he took me to
my interview (got lost for about 30 mins) I was an hour late but had
called the doc to let him know and he was really understanding. The
interview went really well but we shall see what happens. I had a class
to teach at 3 and had to find someone to cover for me till we could get
the spare on and I could drive back to Provo. It was a pretty nuts-o few
hours but I'm just glad I have a hubby that is so helpful and
wonderful.
I'll keep you all updated on what happens next!
