Thanksgiving...Marathon Shopping...Work....

Thanksgiving dinner with the Jensen side of the family. As always the Dodee food was delicious, the company was great, and I was thankful to have both! Apparently I'm the giant in the family, I think these pictures prove my point.
A plan was born..... we decided to be crazies and pull an all nighter of shopping knowing darn well that I had nine hours of work the following day. Were we crazy...YES!!!!
First stop of the night... New Moon. I'm in no way into the Twilight sagas, but I choose Team Jacob! HELLO BODY!!!! Our movie ended at 12:30 so we headed to SouthTowne Mall, we had no idea of what we were in for! It was the CRAZIEST thing I've ever seen in my entire life. We didn't really buy anything but it was worth the experience.... I did snap at Jenny and some lady thought I was a total crazy! I even ran into my dear friend Meagan and her man Chris!
After mall madness, we had to refuel our engines at Denny's. Diet Coke was the liquid of choice and a large amount was consumed. I made an extremely intoxicated friend who refused to leave me alone. He was a treat... NOT!!!!
After Denny's we had sometime to kill before Kohl's opened. So what does one do at 3:45 in the morning?! Visit the Temple of course! After the Temple it was off to Kohl's we were on a mission to obtain door busters, so I forgot to take a picture... but it was CRAZY!
Walmart, the definition of insanity! I don't think these pictures even begin to do it justice... this is when I really started to get tired, however being tired was NOT an option!
After Walmart was Target due to the fact that by this point I was delirious, I neglected to document that stop. Next Old Navy, I was so tired sick of shopping that I didn't even look at one thing.... I absolutely hit my wall... and I still had nine hours of work ahead of me!
After being up ALL night, it was off to work for nine hours. We decorated our branch for Christmas, I'll be honest the day was mostly a blur. I don't remember much of work, and I thank my lucky stars that my drawer balanced at the end of the day.
Everyone keeps asking me if it was worth staying up all night. If I didn't have to work the next day ABSOLUTELY, but seeing is that I did, and it was increidble miserable, maybe not.

Really Max? Really!?

"I don't like Utah. In fact, I hate them. I hate everything about them. I hate their program, I hate their fans, I hate everything"
"I think the whole university, their fans, and their organization is classless. They threw beer on my family and stuff last year, and they did a whole bunch of nasty things, and I don't respect them. They deserve to lose."

Thank you Max Hall for in turn show us what "classless" means. I've heard for the last year how horrible Utah fans are, well thanks to The Almighty Max Hall BYU became no better then us last night. Aside from he fact that his comments were a total oxymoron, I have yet another reason to loath BYU. One bad expericnce taints an entire Universtiy, it's students, alumni, programs, and eveything else in between?

Apparently Max wasn't thinking of these people when he made his comments.....
Joseph B. Wirthlin
President Thomas S. Monson, President Gordon B. Hinckley, President James E. Faust
Once again, President Thomas S. Monson
Some other notable Alumni....
John S. Hunstman
David O. Mckay
Harold B. Lee
Russel M. Nelson
Stephen R. Covey
Henry Eyring
And last but not least.... BYU's president himself Cecil O. Samuelson
Thanks for keeping things classy Max! You sure proved us wrong.

Why I love my job!


If you know anything about me, you know that I L-O-V-E my job! There are many reason I love my job, but mostly it's because it comes with it's own entertainment, and I don't think I ever stop laughing! Let's discuss these pictures. The one of the left is Mike and Chris watching the shred man take our documents and shred them... riveting right?! The one on the right is Chris hiding from a member he didn't want to help... I look forward to going to work almost every day, and I LOVE my co-workers. I for sure lucked out with my job, I guess I should thank DFCU for shafting me.

The Furture Mrs. Meagan Johnson...

Meagan Marz has been one of my best friends for about 7 years now... she is tying the knott on December 3rd and I could not be more excited for her! Saturday I threw a shower for her, everyone was able to make it, and boy was it fun. Meagan could serioulsy be one if not THE funniest person I have ever met in my entire life!!!

Being the friends of the bride naturally we had to equip her with all of the "necessities". That's what friends are for, right?! Meagan is one of the more reserved people I have ever known, so opening scandalous gifts was hard for her. Trust me we all got a great laugh and her expense!


I even got Saturday night with my best friends...

It was so much fun to spend the weekend with my best friends. I miss having them around like crazy, but it's always so much fun when we do get together!

Trick or Treat?!

I had an eventful Halloween this year. First off was dressing up for work, everyone showed up dressed up which made for a fun day. Not only did my co-workers dress up, but I had three little darlings show up dressed up as well. Let me tell you, they are pretty freakin cute! I dressed up as Peter Pan, and I did win the costume contest for my branch. Thank you Peter!
Next was Halloween with the Jensen's. Teri spent the day cooking for us, which was very much appreciated. Homemade cream of chicken soup with homemade bread sticks were on the menu. After a delicious dinner we headed out trick or treating with the kiddos. Naturally they didn't last long, but it was so fun to watch them. After trick or treating we watched the end of a nerve racking Utah Football game. Then it was off to Jamie and Mike's house. Now listen hear, usually Mike and Jamie are party animals... not last night. After twenty minutes of watching a psycho show I decided to head.... I still love you both! :)
It was great Halloween! The beginning of November marks the beginning of the Holiday season, which I'm pretty excited about! Let the Holidays begin!
