FIVE REASONS WHY KENSI SHOULD COME OUT AND VISIT ME!

1- BECAUSE ROUND TRIP TO FLY IS ONLY $130 AND THE FLIGHT IS LIKE AN HOUR!( AKA CHEAPER THAN GAS)
2- BECAUSE MOM SAID SHE WOULD GIVE HER THE TIME OFF WORK!( I ASKED HER)
3-IF SHE DOES IT SOON SHE CAN RIDE TO VEGAS WITH WHITTNEY!
4- JOSH WOULD TOTALLY MISS HER AND PROPOSE WHEN SHE GOT BACK!
5- WE WOULD HAVE SO MUCH FUN LAYING OUT ALL DAY, GETTING TAN, SHOPPING AT THE AWESOMLY HUGE MALL, WE CAN MAKE DINNER EVERY NIGHT AND I WOULD TOTALLY TEACH HER ALL THE RECIPES SHE HAS BEEN WANTING TO LEARN, WE CAN WATCH CHICK FLICKS DURING THE DAY, AND WE WOULD TAKE PICTURES, AND SHE COULD MAKE IT ONTO MY BLOG AGAIN!

OK SO THERE WERE MORE THAN 5 SO I FIT ALL THE LAST ONES ON THE NUMBER FIVE SLOT! BUT SERIOUSLY KENS YOU SHOULD THINK ABOUT IT, IT WOULD BE SUPER SUPER FUN!

DRESSED AND READY FOR WORK

This is Chris' work uniform that I think he looks super super good in, unfortunately for you guys I did not include a view from behind... ( for my eyes only... and any one elses who walks behind him i guess)anyways its no wonder why everyone lets him in there houses to sale them security systems wouldnt you if he was standing on your door step :) haha we are having alot of fun and are enjoying it out here and chris is really getting into the swing of things and doing well.


im just updating for the last couple days and didnt want to do it all in one post, so now im up to date with everything and will now be more at ease... and now Kensi will have something to read at work... and by the way kens I resent that whole studer typing thing.

FUNNY THING ABOUT COOKING!

so the other day I thought I would be food planning smart and use up all of our leftovers so we didnt waste anything, turns out putting everything together in one pot is not such a good idea... everything turned grey and let out this absolutely digusting smell and made me want to puke anad im not exxagerating! It was disgusting, thus the following picture of the pot soaking, seriously the smell finally came out of the pot but only after days of saoking.

so before hris got home i didnt have time to make anything else... thank goodness for Dominoes, and free cinna sticks monday.. I only found out it was cinna stick monday when they handed it to me with my order, and boy was i excited. I almost felt like I had royally screwed up and burnt dinner for a greater reason and that this was were I was ment to be monday night!

RAINY DAYS.... WAHOO!!

so, it rained yesterday, and I thought to myself... it is raining... I need a book. cause everyone knows you have to read a book on a rainy day. so I went to target to get myself a book, (I knew exactly what I wanted) da da da da THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA!!! so i finished the first one yesterday and plan on finishing at least up to the prince caspian one before the movie comes out this weekend... YEA! Im so excited to see it. oh and in case you didnt notice this is a picture of our apartment complex as it was raining.. poor Chris had to go out in it and came home freezing, Im so lucky to have such an awesome hard working husband who can handle anything that is thrown at him.... especially having to deal with me adjusting to a new city.. no one should have to deal with that and the stress of a new job. thanks Chris your awesome!

SOOO... LESSON NOT LEARNED!

Ok so remember how tuesday I fried the front of my legs? well today was the first day i was able to go back to the pool and I thought to myself I have a funny line on my legs... the front has color and the back doesn't! so I decided I would tan the back of my legs.. but I wasnt going gto be stupid anad tan them for an hour and let them fry. so I contemplated the time i would lay there and 15-21 mins sounded good, and after that time had passed i got in the pool for a bit, and then went and watched a movie with Michelle and Melissa and there 2 darling babies. after the movie i stood up and felt the back of my legs sting a little, and i though OH NO!! so I get home, shed the clothing and look at the back of my legs... dundundun... they looked like a lobster! and felt like a lobster being cooked... so ... thats something isnt it? evedently since between tuesday and saturday the sun became more efficient and did what it did to me tues, in a quarter of the time.... YEAH SUN! not!

MY ADVENTUROUS DAY.

So here are some pictures of the apartment. next pictures I post will have humans in them I promise. today has been quite the adventure, first i spent nearly 2 whole hours trying to figure out how to change my blog background. then i decided i would wander around tuscon in my car of course. for those of you who dont know tuscon I will tell you its pretty big. and I wanted to find the mall. well we live on the outskirts of town anad I as of yet have not gone past it. so i got into my car thinking to myself that it probably wasnt a good idea to venture into the city for the first time by myself... but i ignored myself and went on. I knew deep down in my belly that i would probably never find the mall but that I could look for cool places along the way. after about 10 min of driving around taking wierd turns that usually led me nowhere i came around a big turn and there it was.... the mall, it was huge and i couldnt decide which entrance to go into. needless to say i entertained myself there for a long while, and then went home which was a chore seeing as i had taken so many weird turns to get there. but now I am home safe after a long and exciting adventure. and now i wait for chris... for another 3 hours:(

NOTE TO SELF:

Ok so yesterday I was sitting inside around 10:30 in the morning wondering what I should do, and I decided i would go out and get a nice little tan by the pool... I proceeded to do so and after about 40 min i decided I was probably good for the day because I didnt want to get burned the first time I was out in the sun for the summer. so I start to pack everything up to go inside and all the other wives and there babies come in. so of course me being eager to talk to another human being sit by the pool and chat with them not noticing the time going by, about 1:30 my stomache starts to growel so I say my goodbuys and head in for lunch. when I entered my apartment i felt a slight pain in my legs and looked down only to see a smoldering red glaring at me. I knew this was a bad sign because it usually takes about a half a day for my burns to show up, but within 5 min I was totally full blown royally fried! so I layed to to take a nap and 2 hours later (the sun takes alot out of you) I woke up got dressed and went in search of a grocery store. to my relief I found one quickly, went in made my purchase and hurried back to the car where I immediately busted that baby out of the bag and slathered aloe vera all over my legs.... note to self stay away from the sun.

Chris got home around 8:30 at night and I had a poor mans meal of hamburger patties smothered with suated onions and garlic, and mashed potatoes and butter ready for us. after which we went to the movies with brady and logan to see Iron Man which was way good.... I was ready to be out of the house! any ways Chris had a good selling day yesterday he sold 3 but one backed out last min because he was upset the installer was an hour and a half late, which was just a mis comunication. anyways he is doing really well and I am getting more used to the idea of not being at home:)

ARIZONA

Ok so we finally moved to Arizona, after a long tearfull goodbuy ( sorry fam, I couldnt control my emotions:) but i did try) turns out the weather in tuscon is alot like the weather in St. George, except it hits the high temp earlier. so we got to our apartment last night, and were surprised to find out that there is a pool and spa... YEAH!!!! our apartment is very very very small but cute, not in the way that our aprtment at home is cute, more in the way that if I dont say it is then I wont think it is:) it has brand new furniture, and Chris so I like it! so I took a bunch of pictures to post but when I went to upload them I realized I dont have the stuff to conect our camera to the computer AHHH what will i do! sorry Tyler no pics! just a few interesting facts about our apartment that I just came to know.
1- when i sneeze it echoes off the walls like under the paint there is some type of metal!
2- we have a surprisingly lot of storage space in our bathroom, and I cant figure out how, or where the space comes from.
3- they now make vinal that looks shockingly like tile.
4- the AC is really loud when your the only one home.
I thought those might be somewhat interesting for everyone to know. last night we also went to walmart to get stuff for our new house, and turns out it is very disguraging having to restock your apartment with the basic, nessesary foods, when we just had our last apartment perfect, so as a result we got top ramen and stuff instead of yummy homecooked things, because we dont want to have to pack it all again in a month or 2 when we move to new mexico.
I cant wait to go to church and see what our ward is like, I figure that will feel more like home than anything since the gospel is the same everywhere :) So all in all It was a good move the drive went well and we got here safely... aka side note, while we were driving we could see this eagle flying up ahaid of us and it was huge the wing span was as big as our car, then all of the sudden it came right at us and we nearly hit it, it was so cool I was yellin DID YOU SEE THAT! to chris and obviously he couldnt help but see it since it blocked the windshield and its feathers were seriously touching the car, it was amazing to see a bird like that so close. anyways im sure thats enough of an update for today, ill blog again tommorrow, unfortunately not with pictures though:( oh and a shout out to everyone to keep updated so I can see whats going on, it will help alot thanks :)
