Oh no! Almost forgot Friday I also took pictures for those VIP's remember how I told you about that? It went pretty good, I feel so proud of myself. Now you guys may not be as proud, but like the angles and backdrops I really liked . Theres only two on here because you guys can't see the whole collection, because it's not my wedding remember??

  You guys, this weekend was too short. I feel like the older you get the faster the world turns, which sucks but can be good for the work week because one second it's Monday then all of the sudden Wednesday and then Friday time to partay..with er Dr Pepper. This weekend the three little pigs slept over AKA Travis Jayden and Breanna the 4th little piggy stayed at home he worked the next day, or at least that was his excuse for not wanting to stay. So apparantly my siblings are in love with what I think of as the dumbest show on Planet Earth, you all might refer to it as "Wipe Out" they watched that all night long. The next morning I woke up to Spongebob. All of the sudden I decided I wanted to go to the Color Festival. The first color throwing was at 11:00am and we left at 10:50 I was under the impression Spanish Fork was like 10 minutes away...GPS said otherwise and little Bookey had piano at 1pm so we couldn't just go and wait for the next color throwing, so we turned around and ate Arbys. mmmm i LOVE Arbys but I freakin hate their Curly Fries YUCK!
   After Arbys we went through a few model homes up in Daybreak and to my surprise Breanna and Travis quite enjoyed that, Jayden was like ..Meh he could have cared less. We went through this GORGEOUS home that my friend should go and see;) seriously so pretty!
  We took the kids home and then got back to our place got ready then my family and soon to be family went to Trafalga.. we celebrated my brothers birthday after with Pizza breadsticks and cupcakes. Happy Birthday Oldie!! We love you! We played Laser Tag up at Trafalga only problem is the whole playing area smelled like poopy sweaty diaper, afterward we had another game set up but I passed on that one, not Eli though he loved playing against the 6 year olds and their parents. Everyone had fun though so I think I must be the one with the problem. Every party has a pooper and I guess that's why I was invited. Seriously. It was pretty fun though just spending time with Everybody.
   Saturday night Eli and I went to ..dun..dun..dun.. The Hunger Games with our free tickets. booyah! So good. Incredible directing and acting just so good. There's this song at the end of the movie called Safe and Sound I downloaded it when it very first hit iTunes because I'm lame and follow Taylor Swift on twitter and I got a text about her new song, so BAM ever since then Eli and I both have loved it, and then after hearing it we just were inspired that you all needed to hear it..but not from T Swift and the Civil Wars, from The Duckworths. (coming soon)
   Sunday was pretty normal, we went to Grandpa Nielsens, then Eli's parents then my parents and then we did a drive by to say hi to these one people we used to know, but I think they knew we planned on coming and so they weren't home on purpose. hehe people these days.
                                           Below are just some pics from our weekend. Enjoy?!

Titan and I going to the Dollar Store.

Yes I'm one of those annoying girls who puts her dog in the purse. 

Even though our heart is ghetto doesn't mean we are.

Us eating Good Mood Food.

Nothing to do with the post, but I was emailing myself these pics and found this bad boy. haha

Driving the Kids home with all the windows down in the car.

Mom pointed out this house on the way home from Trafalga. What's missing in this picture?

My week.

What do you call a fake noodle??
an IMPASTA!     Credits to Travis..
    I'm at work today, Everyone I know is at the Hunger Games enjoying themselves, EXAGGERATION 2 people I know..but still. lucky! We're gonna hit up the theater this weekend, we got some free tickets. Let me tell you how this happened folks.
   One day we got a letter in the mail from a car dealership with a big headline saying "You could win $10 grand if the letters match" then there was a scratchy thing at the bottom and Eli scratched it off and the letters underneath matched the ones on the card that came with it. Eli excitedly called the dealership and to his surprise..no seriously people he was surprised that they were not in fact going to give him the $10,000. He was on the phone for a while arguing and complaining. Sometimes he doesn't understand corporate America, not saying my knowledge is vast but I'm not a believer in all the schemes and stuff. Anyway Eli came back saying he had not won but if he went down and test drove any car he would get a gift card or movie ticket. So what did Eli do, he ran to Ken Garff and he got those dang tickets. 
    I really don't have one main theme for this blog I guess just some random thoughts. This week somebody at work came out of her office and said "Ladies mothers are overrated" I quickly said in like a saddish voice. "aww no they're not" Then she proceeded to tell me some drama that had been going on with her family. I was then thinking about my mom and our relationship, man it's changed so much. In high school we were always arguing, me being the "rebellious" child. Much like Miley I couldn't be tamed. haha. Now we get along great I couldn't  ask for a greater mom and I know a lot of people feel like that about their parents, and that's great everyone should.I just was thinking how grateful I am to lived through this mortal experience with the most awesome mom, and just loving life and every moment shared with her. Moms aren't over rated! You will always need your momma, I know I always will. I love you too dad just this whole topic was on mothers since the conversation at work.
  Speaking of mothers, we went to my mother in laws this past week, and Grandma Nae was there, she had me sit by her and then proceeded to ask me why i never brush my hair? "Your such a pretty girl, and I just don't understand, you look like you just woke up" Yeah that may have offended me but I have come to realize that's just how Eli's grandma is and it in fact made me laugh. So Monday night we were invited to celebrate a birthday at Olive Garden, and Grandma Nae was going to be there, so before I got ready I literally brushed my hair for 5 minutes. We went to the restaurant, I sat next to her and leaned in and said " I just want you to know I brushed my hair right before we left" She told me to turn around and ran her hands a long it and said "What kind of conditioner do you use?" she didn't believe that I brushed it again, Eli then said "grandma she's telling the truth I watched her do it the whole time" haha Now Sunday I thought she was talking about when I poof my hair, but it was down at the restaurant. I guess my hair is just snarly looking in general? I mean it waves naturally, and I try taming it, but this is my natural look people. I do in fact brush my hair.
  Speaking of hair...we got my car fixed. Haha hair?? this has nothing to do with my new subject, but I wanted to ease into it. So I got my car from the shop, and we started to drive back to our place, when I went to listen to my music. GUESS WHAT? It didn't work again. I mean it turned on and I could turn the volume up but I couldn't change the input to Aux for my iPod of FM, nothing. I panicy kind of irritatedly called Eli and proceeded to tell him we needed to turn around because they had broken my radio again. Eli suggested going home first and coming back tomorrow to do it, but since we were only 5 minutes away I said no, and we turned back around. I went back and not angrily but not happy I told them they had broken the radio. One of the mechanics said the guy who had worked on my car had a lot of work and would be mad if he had to do this right now, I was dumbstruck that the guy didn't care at all that they had broken the radio and this was not the first time. He asked if he could take a look at it first, so we walked to my car and he got in, I showed him exactly what I was talking about. It was like the speakers weren't hooked up. The man pressed this button called 'isr' BAM my radio was working. *embarrassed much?* I told him red in the face "ohh I've never had to press that before" he smiled and i RAN.AWAY.AS.FAST.AS.POSSIBLE. I really just got in my car and reset my stations to the ones I like, and everything was good. Sheesh. Some people right?!
   Well readers, I am offically a free man in 1 minute. HOLLA. Guess what? I'm going to be taking some very special engagement pictures for some VIP's :) AND the venue they want them done at are right by our apartment. Oh wait that reminds me the other day we went and fed the ducks. Yeah we walked to the lake and there were tons of ducks, I really wanted to go to this one dock, so we walked over to it because that's where all the ducks were, and by the time we got there all the ducks were swimming away. Oh No. Eli told me not to worry he'd get them back so he crumpled some bread and threw it really hard, the ducks started to swim faster then I thought even possible...the oppositte direction of us. Great Job Eli. I was wondering who even discovered that ducks like bread, I mean really? I bet they don't even like it but besides bugs and sea weed they're happy for it, because it's variety from their normal food. Not to fret though beceause 2 geese saw we were in need and had walked all the way to feed animals so they came over and started eating the bread, oh and then 2 ducks came over. The lady ducks are so pretty they aren't really colorful but then tucked in their wings are some purple color, so pretty. You all thought I was talking about myself when I said lady ducks are so pretty huh?! haha. The seagulls ended up getting word that we were serving bread and then they crazily started flying over  us and swooping down and getting bread, Eli started screaming "they better not poop on me" he then stood up and walked away with Titan. Freakin seagulls.
 
                 People I'm out like trout. I have some pictures to be taking.    : D  
 

Video Song

   Okay, this video is for my family basically. It's kind of long, and you might get bored, but the words just remind me of my family, and myself. I really wanted to sing it..hope you enjoy, and if you don't oh well. Listen to the words. Really though I hope your ears don't burn.

                           AWWWWW:)
 Oh p.s Sorry about the wiggling camera at the end, that was all the videographer.

Neighbors.

   So we "met" two more of our neighbors yesterday. I mean we've met a few but officially had "conversations" with. The first one interaction...Yesterday we went and picked up our couch from RC Willey, and of course I think I'm stronger then I am. We got up two flights of the stairs and were turning the corner to go up the last ones to get to our apartment. I couldn't pick up the couch, my end was on the railing and I needed to pick it up. Eli tells me to get underneath of it and push up, so I do. AHHH i was stuck cuz it was too heavy so then I was underneath of the couch my back was basically holding it up, Downstairs neighbor to the rescue. He must of heard me, all the sudden this guy looks out and runs up to help. Embarrassing for me, but I didn't care because any longer under that couch and I would have been The

Quasimodo from Hunchback. 

 

    The second lady we met, was maybe in her thirties. We had gone somewhere and got home 

around 11:30 Eli ran up one side of the stairs and i ran up the other, I had just been laughing, not a cackle or anything more like a giggle. Anyways As Eli's walking to the door from the side of the stairs he came up, this lady comes out and just stands in front of her door and is staring at us. You could tell she was irritated, but she wasn't saying anything. I just kept waiting for her to talk while Eli was getting his keys out. She said nothing so I then said "Hi is there something we can help you with?" she then says in an annoying irritated voice"Yeah quiet time is at 9 o clock" and then goes back inside and slams her door. AHHHH wow. The thing is it wouldn't have been that loud but we're in a complex and it echoes going up the stairs, the laughing and the stepping. We went inside and then 5 minutes later we heard someone next door screaming, it just sounded like 'eeeeeeeh' but high pitched. Eli suggested just going out side and folding our arms and staring at the offenders. Sheesh! I think tonight we're gonna just go out in the hallway and just tell jokes and laugh in front of her door, then bang some pots or something. The thing is we're gonna do this at 8:55pm so she can't complain because it's not quiet time yet. Unless it's after 9 she can't say anything. 

     I'm kidding we're really not gonna do that because then everyone will hate us and we just moved in. All together we've met like 7 neighbors, and most are nice but the lady next door is uptight,,now we know. Eli said she probably had a baby sleeping, but if that was the case why did she slam her door like a banchee? oh well. BAN-CHEE . 

   We went inside and watched this show called 'Awake'  it's on Hulu if you guys haven't watched it, check it out. I really feel like my family would enjoy it. just a side note. 

     

St Pat's.

Dear Readers,
   Happy St Patricks Day. This holiday is completely pointless. Eli and I are picking up a couch today and need to borrow my parents van. We drove down and guess what happened next? Every single person in the house got pinched. No one has pointless holiday spirit in the Crowther house. jeeeez! Well this is a quick post, but no worries, I will be posting more shortly. really no worries.

Eli's shirt is green, lime green I know it looks yellow.

Oh and If you didn't wear green today, consider yourself pinched *PINCH*

Group Activities.

   It's Friday at work and it's a day of fun. fun. fun. Let me tell you something

F is for friends who do stuff together.

U is for U and Me.

N is for Nywhere Nytime at all Down here... at...work (see how i changed that last part to work instead of the normal lyrics "in the deep blue sea" clever right?!)

   So I slept great once again, thanks for asking! We love the apartment, our neighbors upstairs walk a lot though, it's not too crazy though like they're not doing the running man all the time or shuffling just some light walking, which reminds us of back home so we like it. The only time actually I woke up during the night was when there was that tornado the other day, man the wind was crazy. It kept hitting the window I think it was worse because we were higher up too, so it was like "pound....wooosh...pound" so I woke up a few times.

  At work on Fridays they provide donuts or muffins or bagels. Today was doughnuts, and man did I go crazy. Pretty much everyone here thinks they're fat so they're not eating, more for me baby. I ate basically 4 doughnuts and am basically regretting it at this time in my life. I feel like

 A: Homer Simpson and, B: soo sicK!

    It was great though they have these blueberry doughnuts and they're so unique and tasty. Fridays we also do a team building activity and todays was this weird see how many people you can fit on a small space. so there was this little 2 foot circle that we all stood on, and somehow it was bonding?? I said charades, but noo stand on a small circle. We also played wiffle ball. I wouldn't say I was amazing, but I was proud of myself. I hit a home run, and then a few other like second base hits (yeah it's not the hardest to hit a home run because the bases are pretty close but I'm happy bout it.) I'm posting the pictures of Friday activity so you can really just get a glimpse of wiffle ball.

   Today we're also so excited because My Familia is coming over YAY! really I couldn't wait for this day to come so they could come up. My parents are being good Temple goers and our house happens to be on the way so we get to spend some time with them, and we're both pretty excited. Another thing we're excited about? the internet and we can finally enter into the world of Netflix and Hulu, I've missed Law and Order, Napoleon Dynamite, Glee, Gossip Girl, New Girl, wow if I sound like I'm a tv aholic it's because I am. I can't even believe how bummed out I've been with out these things, kind of pathetic I will not lie.

  Well work is over in 10 minutes and I'm gonna go home to spend time with my boo bear. I call him that in public, and the other day in public I was doing it a lot, then I apologized and go figure, he likes it, so If I say Boo Bear again, It's my Eli and he's not ashamed.

                                              Our standing on a circle. haha

                                               The bat is for babies I know.

Home run boooyah!

Move in.

    So At the time of this post most of our stuff is actually in the rightful spot, except for some boxes here and there. These pictures are from Saturday and Sunday. I am now posting pictures so that I can remember the moving and all the joys and box central that came with it. I mean our new place is great. Growing up is hard it's my first time away from home as I've said before, I miss our upstairs friends, and our neighbors. People aren't so friendly and no ones really gone out of their way to say hi to us, so I'm hoping church on Sunday is different...uh yeah about church *reminder find out what time church is *second reminder PLEASE don't be 9AM. I know that's more of a hope not reminder, in fact not more of a hope it Is a hope. So Sunday was our last day in our ward the one I grew up in, man that's nuts. A couple of people started talking to us about houses for sale, too little too late.
   Sunday we got home and put the TV up then went to the Lake, we walked around for approximately 5 minutes til we decided it was super chili and went back to our place luckily it was only a 60 second drive or that woulda been a major waste of gas. It was nice to live so close to the lake it will be especially in the summertime, I'm sure we'll go down there and hand out bread to Eli's relatives.. haha please tell me you guys got that joke. Read on for the answer if you didn't.
   After the park We went home and I made dinner (I even took a picture of that so I could remember our first meal at the apartment, Lame right? We don't have furniture so we ate on the floor, well actually on our couch, our home grown "couch" (see pics below) We watched a movie, and I don't remember what it was but I do remember that my behind and back were in pain from that wood floor. *ouchies* After the movie we zonked. My sleep was so good. I mean it's always good, but I just wanted you all to know I slept well:)
  Enjoy our pictures. Or don't enjoy them whichever you choose.

That's rice, Fool! and some weird shaped chicken and some bbq.

P.S don't feel bad about our no furniture (cuz i know you all were) We now have a bananna chair and a folding chair to sit on YAY!

P.S.S the answer to my question was Ducks! We can feel the Ducks!!

Eli's new look

                                                Eli was complaining all day a couple of weeks ago (i know this is old news but it's for my journal purposes), about how his hair was getting too long. He wants to look more professional at work. I offered to cut his hair cuz that's what I've done in the past for him always. Apparantly he doesn't want steps or a mohawk, or almost bald so he wouldn't let me.

     Later that day we went over to our friends house, and I said how Eli wanted a haircut, and BAM all of the sudden the tools were out and he everything was ready for a hair cut. So here are a couple of pics of Eli and his new and FOREVER barber. hehe:)     ps. The pics are blurry and won't go where I want them to. so BLAH







Moving time

So it's & am on Saturday morning and I'm posting from my iPod..What gives? Well last night we moved, rented a uhaul,packed up and left. Thanks to everyone that helped!! It went by faster then I thought, still took a while but it was fast. Mom got dominos last night. I'm normally not a fan of dominos but people.. It was good! Def ten steps up from when I previously had it and it tasted like cardboard with sauce. Up next unpack everything. Eek! This moving thing proved to be more difficult then I thought. For those of you that know we live(d) in my parents basement apartment, so basically all I've ever done was move from one room to the next. Well there was this time where I thought I'd move out and then I moved... WAIT FOR IT... Next door! Haha we moved using a wagon. And really I only moved half my stuff, so when the time came and I realized how silly it was and a few other though processes, I moved back with my rightful owners . Jokes I know I'm not owned by anyone. So back to why I'm awake early (for me)!on a Saturday blogging from my iPod. So last night after moving all of our stuff we were exhauated, after rewarding ourselves with some jamba. Eli realized he had some homework that he had done and needed to turn in by midnight. And we had no Internet connection, so we went back to the old stomping grounds. Is it too early for me to say that? And he mailed in his asignment. Yay hubs! By the time he got done we were both just ridiculous tired we decided to sleep here. We rounded up some blankets and slept on the couches that we weren't taking. Here were no extra pillows except for he really uncomfortable ones that are on the flowery couch so I used one. I woke up several times last night uncomfortable. And then early this morning with a crik or kink or whatever word used for ouchie mama my neck is sore one one side specifically. After waking up early I decided to blog, ran upstairs and dad as using the computer. Soo now my wrists are sore and I'm laying here uncomfortably blogging. For now I'm gonna get up put a couple more things in bags, like some food we didn't take with us, ice cream, milk and Hershey's kisses. Later were going to my boo boo's (nieces) birffday party. She'd prefer it if I didn't go, but I was invited so take that you little cutie petootie;) and I'm out....oh wife it's from the iPod you may have to forgive the extra spelling errors. There may be more then usual. Apple doesn't approve of the words I use at times so changes them on me, I tried catching them all but if ever your like "giirl say whaaa? " then clearly your ghetto and need to stop talking like that haha, just teasing I you find yourself saying that more then usual it's cuz of this dang casadilla iPod. Audios amigos! And welcome new friends!
