It's a hard knock life

Today was a stay home and do nothing day. Of course phil always found something to do between commercials. But, none the less. We stayed home. The first movie pick was called " Speak" with Kristen Stewart (yes, i can see you trying to think if that name is familiar, badda bing! its bella from Twilight.)

Well after we watched that, which in fact was a very cute movie. I recommend it, We ventured on out into the freezing cold wind. Snow falling everywhere. Its time for the horses to eat, especially the Stud - that little fella has always been spoiled in the heat- whether in Texas or in Mesa. Now its snowing?! whats the guy gonna do!? Eat more Hay. Its kinda like that silly commercial with the cows that say Eat more chickn. Except not. This horse doesn't care if you eat chicken or beef!

Anyway, as we did so philly realized 2 horses were missing. uh ooohh. So, i suggested to go off and look. Since we'd been in the house all day. Low and behold, id be the one climbing out of the truck to open the fence. BRRRRR. My nose almost turned into a carrot and my eyes to coal! Too bad i wouldnt be one of those cute ones with a scarf and top hat (said with an english accent of course.)

Well, to your dismay, we didnt find the horses but figure they are hiding behind trees from the coldness. Poor fellas. Lucky they have phil to give em tons hay!

Now, back in the nice warm house. Dirty dishes looooming in the sink behind me. Screaming-- CLEAN USSS.
Nope, not tonight. Gotta save me some activity for tommorrow!
On the list for the rest of the evening though:

1. Phil will make some fabulous enchiladas.
2. We will eat them , gobbble goooobbbble, while we watch none other than- Snapped and The office! booo yaa !
3. Pile dishes onto more dirty dishes and continue watching the shows.
4. Get up, look at the dishes and still give em the cold shoulder...
5. Hot showerrrrr (thats not all! you also get a nice wall heater to turn on as well ding ding!)
6. Leno, Conan. And thinking, thats not even funny anymore but ill laugh anyway to work out my cheeks.
7.Bedtimmmeee. YAY cold sheets, fan in my face. ZZZZZZzzzz.

Now that you all know what we will do tonight, will also know that we have obviously had a lazy day. Wonderful. But tommorrow, its back to harrrd work for philly and cleaning for me. YAY. Hope those dishes don run away during the night, it would sure make me sad if i couldnt visit them tommorrow.

Ohhh my dear friends, It is almost Halloweeen!!! Since we will not be there for this festive holiday, please do me a favor, and eat alll the butterfingers you can for me! mMMMmmm. But as for Thanksgiving, ill be eatin turkey stufffing and cranberry sauce all on my own, but you're sure welcome to eat some for me too!

Well I think its about time to get off this dadnabbed computer and make me a bathroom break before Enchiladas and some laughage!
Much love

Shnow Anyone?

Whoo, Over night. What a present...


See the hay barn alll the way over there?


Lou Lou's House, Taken over by snow.


This is our very,very pregnant Border Collie, Lou Lou. She basically got kicked out of her "house" (a broke down horse trailer with a doggie pad and food and water) because of the snow. Poor Girl. At least she has that punkin!



Yes, Our chickens Are infact hiding from the snowy, freezing cold winds!



Philly Comin' in from gatherin' a small group of cows. Brrr!




Sunshine In the Winter, Thanks Mama!

Good Mornin' Friends!
It was a good nights sleep, that is of course, besides the two night terrors.
Thats right, Night Terror.

It's like a very bad nightmare that your awake in, but also that you feel like is so completely real.

It takes me about 20 minutes to work myself into reality, and in the mean time, phil is tellin me to go back to sleep.

After I got back to sleep, it felt like I had been sleeping for 5 minutes and Phil is shaking me at the hip. " Wake up- Wake up, Look! "

To my undelight, nothing but White out of my window. Yes, it snowed!

October is for Halloween, Not winter!! What is this world coming to!

But I must say , Heavenly Father knew what beautiful things I love. He blesses me with the oppurtunity to see things that make me incredibly happy. And I'm not talking about happy like, I get cake on my birthday happy.

I mean happy, when my soul feels happy. When I feel Warm and content. Like when the arizona sun hits my face, or the cold crisp air hits my face when I'm standing on the seat of my brothers jeep heading up a crooked hill. Happy when I jump into my blankets at the end of the day.

Now thats Happy. What makes you happy?

Callin' night, Callin' night...Hello?

we ate one of those steers fer dinner tonight...mmhmm!

NOT pay alot of money on that dinner mrs. molly. OHH mrs molly!

Imagine

ill be honest right now, vocabulary and capitalization are not on the top of my list. so, granted, i love to write.. when i type, i just go with the flow. whereever my thoughts take me.

sittin here, i am kind of feeling a nostalgic feeling. listening to angels and airwaves on kamry's myspace, i keep gettin memories flashin in my mind. sudden, kind of like when lighting splashes through the dark skies, splitting what we see as one canvas of rain clouds- into a torn pitcture. Its like it splits it open so the drops of rain can fall. In this case, my memories arent causing rain to fall, that would be like... weird. i am sitting at the computer... if rain started falling i would be scared haha.

I think life is a whole book. its something that time controls, but we control what we do with the time that we are givin. God didnt put us here just to watch us fall and not get back up. He put us here to fall, get back up... and run with whatever we got out of that fall. even if its justDirt. Dirt dont hurt anyway... it washes off.

Speaking of life, i love it!

when i think of the word, it doesnt feel like it is a word. because of alll the words in a vocabulary- its the only one that brings so many memories i could make a picture story book just to store in my brain.

it makes me think of my favorite things in life: the blessings i have recieved: my family and the sunshine i live under. when the sun hits my skin it makes me smile everytime. I love the daisys and sunflowers that covers the country side. when the rain clouds roll in- threatening to clean the earth they sit on. I love when the smell of rain floats through the car vents . the winds blows and lightning flashes. I love watching the water dance to the sound of the earth as is moves. spinning in a cirular motion.... as we just sit and watch. it makes me wonder... why some of us just let it pass by.i bet God is sad knowing some of us walk by a pretty purple flower without even acknowledging it.

id like to stand on a corner and hold out my hat, asking people to give me the time they are going to waste.

the simplest things in life, are the things that make me happy, but like everyone else on this earth... sometimes i want things. more than i want things that matter. i want a nice truck, and a horse to ride. a quad. i want to bring my kids up in a life of dunes, camping and shooting. but thats just the worldly things... what i really want is happiness. a family of my own that i can love and that i can share my love of the the things around me. the beauty of each thing that surrounds us.

a family i can have for time... and ALL eternity. a husband who holds the priestood. and each move we make, each choice we have to make.... includes heavenly father.

i want alot.....but maybe if i focused on others... i would share this happiness with others. the world is full of it.... if each of us shared a small part of the happiness in our hearts.... maybe then... we would be able to return all together for eternity

as for right now.... its high time i stop typing

but.. life is too short not to write a happy thought, or look and enjoy each amazing thing around us. enjoy each smile someone gives you on the street. tell a random person they look amazing. think about all the people you love and the people you will love one day.... do all the right things.. just for them. enjoy the moment... and live for the memories you'll make. dont regret life.... we are here to learn.. to love... and to live. let yourself do just that..



until later! i love you guys!

<3 bree
