My boy.

           Mack Attack, he is my pride and joy. My nephew to be exact. I love him to pieces. This is my older sister, Lindsay's lil' boy and I have been bound to love him forever and ever. I hope I'm right on this sister, my little nephew of a man will be turning 5 in July. Cuuh-razy. I remember when my sister was pregnant with the miniature man. That was the main thought going through my brain, baby boy, my very own nephew, yikes. At this point I had become an aunt to quite a few children, but it was my sisters first baby. Just a miner difference in the way I felt. I love all my nieces and nephews the same, I just was so excited for this one. 

           The day my sister gave birth to Mack, I was there every step of the way. I saw everything, that's right. I am a true, and loyal sista. I held up Lindsay's left leg, while Tyson (my awesome, bro-in-law) held her right leg, the entire process of getting Mack into this world. It wasn't necessarily my favorite thing to do, but I was so happy to be there for her and her little man. This kid has the biggest heart and he just keeps getting sweeter and don't forget unbelievably hilarious. I crack up at everything he says. I'm glad my sister moved from San Diego a couple years ago to Bountiful, Ut, and now I get to see them more often than not. You did a good job sis, and I'm glad I've been blessed to be an aunt to such a great kid. 

          Let's not forget about Mason the man. That is Mack's baby brother. He is just as cute in his own delightful way. I just have a kick when I get to spend the day with those adorable peeps. You never ever know what's going to come out of there tiny mouths. I'm talking about you too, Lindz! 

Sister Love

My sista and I went on a Jamba Juice run because the sun was shining, and there was a warm breeze informing us that summer is on its way. Just so you know, my twin has been taking pictures of everything since she was in middle school and loves every minute of it. Hence, we got a little carried away with her camera. Good times, good times.

Are we really twins? 

                                   

                                 I'm stealing your glasses, I hope that won't be a problem, sis.

                                   

Edit much?

                                    

Just look at that bundle of joy.

                                                  
                                              Orange Dreamsicle: it's a favorite.

Breather.

Spring Break is a given when you attend Utah Valley University. Bless this time of the school year. Although, my week does not consist of a day on the beach nor a tan to go with my albino-ness. I will enjoy every minute away from my long, dull lectures at school. 

Oh, and thought ya'll should know, I'm employed. Not the most amazing job, but it's a decent job just to boost our itty bitty income. :)

Frizzy

Thanks to my daddeh, I inherited his curly, nappy yak hair...I love my father, he can't help what he gave me, whether it is good or bad. I just gotta live with it. But, thanks to this generation we live in, we've been blessed with the Chi. The only thing that could possibly tame my mane. I've tried the cheap Walmart brand straightners, eh, I've tried pretty much everything. Except, chemically straightning my hair, I'm not that desperate. But, this is currently my greatest solution. What would I do without you, Chi? This is what my bad dawg looks like...

I probably wouldn't have met my husband without this invention. Not that my man is shallow or anything, he just probably wouldn't have been able to see my face underneath the afro living on my head. You all probably think I'm exaggerating, well I'm not. I speak only the truth on this matter. My hair is a monster! All I'm saying, is I'm grateful for the Chi straightener. I love it.

I just love her more...

My twin posted about our day together! Man, it was the funniest/greatest day I've had with my sister in such a long time. It was refreshing. She posted a video of our craziness. Everything I want to say is included in my Kelli's post, go here if you want: http://kellilebaron.blogspot.com/.

I love you sista. We're horrible at karaoke by the way.

I'm Crazy

I have decided to run a marathon and I have also come to the conclusion that I am crazy. One day, I was running on the treadmill, watching who knows what on the television, and couldn't stop running. I got to three miles and I said to myself, "Just keep running, just keep running, stop at 4 miles." And, when I hit my goal of 4 miles, I would set another goal and run a few more miles. SO, I finally hit the 7 mile mark, due to a little blister in the ball of my foot, I won't run without mole skin anymore. I'm sure my feet/toes will be bleeding after this endeavor. I think it will be worth it, in my opinion. This is about when I reckoned I ought to just run the whole thang. 26.9399384394730979734 miles.... should be a PRETTY good day! I'm planning to run it with my pal, Jule Brown Bagley, which will definitely help and make it loads of fun. I don't think I could do it alone. I tried convincing Will to run it with me, but God made that boy smart, because he ran for the hills once he sensed my conniving affects on him to join me in this marathon adventure. Pssh. I'm glad for Julie, she's the bombshnizzle, I speak nothing but the troof. (slang word for truth.) All in all, this should be a hard, but rewarding trip. This is going to be my schedule for the upcoming weeks. I forgot to mention that I'll be running a half-marathon June 11th, so this is the schedule I'm going by currently. That's all.

Love.

I can't even describe to you how my tastes buds felt when I put this piece of beauty in my mouth. I got goosebumps, yes, GOOSEBUMPS, because it tasted so heavenly. If I could eat one of these everyday for the rest of my life, I wouldn't have an ounce of remorse. Unless, I start to see the pounds packin', which is guaranteed to happen. Thought I'd share this with you.

Side note: This is probably why my acne won't disappear.

SOS

I'm dying here. I have suffered from acne long enough. High school was obviously the worst time for most of us, oh the good ole days of puberty. I feel like I'm still going through it, which maybe I am, maybe I'm not. It's not fair, because my twin sister has perfect, I mean PERFECT skin. As you can see:



It's just as soft as a babies buttocks. I've envied her skin for years. Curse her porcelain skin. There was a year when my face AND back were covered in "insert ugly word here," and my twin was complaining about her first, itsy, bitsy, tiny, pimple on her nose. Puuhhlease, kill me know. It made me so mad. I stilll love you sis, kind of. It's gone on long enough. But, it's as if there is no solution. I came to college and the acne followed me here. So, I decided to join the Acutane club and go on the dang drug. 6 long torturous months went by, and my whole body became chapped from this mighty medication, I was finally acne free. And, luckily I didn't get pregnant during this time because, for one I wasn't married, and dos, my babies would have come out deformed. Doctors freak out if you are not on a form of birth control, because if you somehow conceive while on this medication, it is guaranteed that your child will have deformities. Anyway, it was great stuff for my skin. It cleared everything, even the disgusting blackheads on my nose, I'm terribly sorry for the TMI. But, you all know what I'm talking about.

As the years went by, my back stayed clear, but my face began to break out once again. Sometimes it's clear, and the times that it breaks out into a war of pimples, I just feel as if my face will never see the light of perfection. Maybe in the eternities, but not in my current mortal state it's not. I just need a little help, advice, anything to get rid of these disgusting growths on my face. I've been thinking about ProActive, I used this product in high school and it helps for a little bit, as all the products we use do. I just need to get out my absolute frustration to my pimples, I hate you acne and I want you to die. You've resided on my face for too long. That's all I have to say about that...
