Most Epic Valentines Playlist

Me and the hubs celebrated Valentines Day last night at Ruths Chris (i can still feel the steak melting in my mouth) on account of him working late tonight, and I had the idea of bringing all the worlds greatest love songs to one place and making him listen (and sing) to them.

A moment like this - Kelly Clarkson
I believe in a thing called love- Darkness
I Do- 98 degrees
I will always love you- Whitney Houston
My Boo- Usher & Alicia Keys
Hero- Enrique Iglesis
Total Eclipes of the Heart- Bonnie Tyler
PS i love you- The Beatles
Put it on me- Ja Rule ft. Vita
Everything i do- Bryan Adams
Happy Together- The Turtles
How do i love without you- Leann Rhimes
Lets get it on- Marvin Gaye

Bonus Track: Hearbreaker- Pat Benetar

DIY

i did it! i finished a project! its not often i finish something im proud of (and im not proud of that) but this actually turned out to my liking. My loving actually (yes i know im missing tuesday, do not fear it will be fixed)

it will work with any collage frame but i had the perfect one! 8 4x6 openings was perfect. i antiqued the paint on the edges, inserted some scrapbook paper (this is my favorite part since it can be interchangeable) got vinyl lettering printed at theimagingdepot.com, stuck them on and VWALAH!! we have a schedule! (its mainly for my husband because he has Alzheimers) but the good news is he can read (clap clap). and every week you can simply write on it with dry erase markers. perfecto 

i cant come up with a good title

eeek! Ragnar is only 6 short months away, how do i even prepare for that? who's idea was this to sign up? i blame it on my good friend Jacquie Vanbeekum, who talked me into my very first Half Marathon. its crazy how running touches ones soul, you can think of anything in the world that you want. This is where i have come up with most of my best ideas (too bad i cant remember any on my return home).

The best compliment i have ever received was when someone said they could tell i was an active person just by looking at me. the first 19 years of my life have been wasted by my unwillingness to enjoy activity and the movement of muscles, but once you start you just cant stop! i imagine it would be that way for eating healthy as well but french fries and dr. pepper just make me so happy.. sooo happy. and while it hurts while you are doing it (hurts so good) its so satisfying the next day when you roll out of bed and you can barely walk because you are so sore.  well i just needed to share my testimony of the fitness gospel so everyone can know how important it is. perhaps ill keep a fitness blog/journal but i probably wont because i cant keep up with it.

running for president

you heard right, i Josalin Dawn Reed Child am running for president of this, The Unites States. I will be the YOUNGEST and most WOMANLY president in history. It's just not working out for me guys. I will require mental health hour, in which you must participate in yoga for at least an hour. i will get rid of the money system and people pay in hugs and good deeds. you are required to give at least 1 homeless person a ride home a week. im going to re-work the Military system. everyone will smile. free health insurance for all. friends all around. Natalie Portman and Salena Gomez will be my entourage. Dwayne "the Rock" Johnson will be my bodyguard. oh did i say president of the united states? i meant the world.

here's to the nights we felt alive.

Love my dude friends so so so much, nothing quite like a night of cooking disgusting brats over the fire in the middle of the winter

Dancing on the kinect (more fun for me because I

always win)

And drifting.

working hard, or hardly working

Remember that one time I said I would blog more because of high demand of all my worshipers? Well I'm sorry, I just haven't had anything to complain about besides work... And I can't very well do that when I'm friends with all my wonderful bosses. I guess I could complain about there not being any snow on Christmas but that was even taken away from me this morning when it started snowing. I suppose the only thing left is my ward family. Ughhh. I'm sorry I don't have kids people, but I promise we have to have something else in common. sure you are ten years older than me, but I can be mature sometimes. Sorry I can't take my librarian calling seriously and come 45 minutes before church so that sister so-and-so can save 10 cents on some copies, and stay 20 minutes after to make sure the crayons and kid safe scissors are all accounted for. So sue me, I'm working 6 days a week, is it so awful that I want a day to myself and my husband every once in a while?

Better Late then Never???

according to those few who read my blog, they are very sad i havent updated in... months. Even though i see those few about every other day. So they already know that me and Jay got a BEAUTIFUL new TV for our bedroom for Christmas. Speaking of Christmas i cannot wait for it! there is nothing better then spending time with family and giving gifts. Thats right you heard me, i said GIVING. sure i love getting things too, but there is nothing more rewarding buying someone a gift that you know they are absolutely going to love! Lets not forget thanksgiving though, there is not a better combination than food and family and a day off work. Unfortunately after that one delicious day comes weeks of hell, till christmas. Gotta love working at a retail store during the holidays. Thats all for now, i promise ill be more excited and update more, lately there just hasnt been anything but work.
