The Joys of Being a Dog Lady


Has a dog ever pooped on your head? For me, the answer was no... up until today that is.

Yep Chloe decided my head would be a great spot to pop a squat and take a dump.

How in the world did she poop on my head you may ask?

Well, I was laying on my stomach, on the couch and Chloe  hopped up to lay on my back...or so I thought. I didnt think anything of it, especially since she IS potty trained. She rings a little bell by the door to let us know she has to go outside.

Anyway... I realize Chloe had been standing on my upper back for awhile and I could feel her shaking, so I lifted up to look back at her and a little poop turd rolled off my back and down my arm! It was all in my hair and smeared down my back! It wasn't solid poop either it was slimey!

Of course, I began dry heaving. In between my dry heaves, I ran around like a crazy person, stripping off my clothes as fast as I could and yelling at Chloe all at the same time. It was GROSS! Lets just say she is in the dog house with me tonight.

I could shift the blame onto Conrad, who fed her pepperoni the night before. This may have made her stomach upset, and caused her to have a sudden poop attack on my head. That's the only reason I can think of as to why she would poop on ME! Anyway, Conrad is not the one who pooped on me, so I still blame the hound.

Let the Good Times Roll

The month of May has been pretty dang good to us. We've had lots of fun with friends and family.

In a nutshell-

Conrad graduated from Law School!

We went to our favorite Mexican restaurant with our good friends twice within one week. We might be a little obsessed. -If you are ever in Mesa Arizona you have to try Tia Rosa mmm mm.

Our friends opened our eyes to a great sno ball place and now we crave it all the time.

Girls night at The Great Gatsby.

Conrad's parents came for graduation and they spoiled us with dinner at Ruth's Chris Steak House - they pretty much spoiled us every night with dinner and they took us to the Grand Canyon so thank you Hal and Patty we had lots of fun!

Did you notice that most of my highlights had something to do with the food places we are in love with?We're just two little pigglets stuffing our faces all the time.

And now Ill just let the pictures speak for themselves in no particular order.

Our second time at Tia Rosa's celebrating our friend, Sierra's birthday.

Me and squints at the Watch Tower.

I've been trying to get as much pool time in as I can before it gets blistering hot.


The first time our friends took us to New Orleans Sno Ball. I dont care much for snow cones and I really liked this place so its kind of a big deal... okay not really.

Proud Dad


High rolling at Ruth's Chris Steak House. That's one happy graduate right there.

I seriously love the girls in my ward I always come home with sore cheeks and a sore stomach from laughing so hard after girls nights.

Of course we had to take Conrads parents to New Orleans Sno ball.

Proud Mom.



I had fun with my primary kiddos making cards on Mothers Day. Now they ask to paint every week ;-/

Weekend Fun

My family came to visit... my whole family- mom, dad ,sisters AND my grandparents.
We all stayed in Chandler at my Aunt and Uncles house.
I love when they come, I wish they could come more often.

Lucky for me they came on my birthday weekend.

We shopped, ate at our favorite Diners, Dives and Drive in's places, drove around in a Maserati, visited two temples and watched general conference.

I loved having my birthday on general conference Sunday it made it even that much better.

Unfortunately it wasnt all great.
My grandma fell and broke her hip on friday night.

It was scary.
I was sick to my stomach worried about her.

A priesthood blessing was given to her and my fear and worry went away.
She went in for surgery on Saturday.
Sure enough, everything went great.
We had a little party in her hospital room when she woke up.

Sadly my mom, dad and sisters had to leave early Sunday morning.
That was a bit of a downer BUT my sweet friends Brittney and Sierra surprised me with cake and ice cream later Sunday night. I feel so blessed to have such great friends here.

All in all it was one of the best weekends. (Beside my grandma getting hurt of course.)
We love having visitors so anyone that wants to come... please do!
