Is a Lie a Lie if...

So is it a lie if you told a lie but later found out the lie you told was actually the truth. I'll explain. Today I had to drive across campus to get a key copied on my way back to the rec I got pulled over by a campus cop. Now the cop was going the opposite way of we and literally turned down a street and turned around and was way behind me and finally pulled me over when I was in the parking lot of my building. He pulled me over because as he was driving by me he noticed my car inspection was expired. He came to my window and of course I didn't have my license on me. A few weeks ago I had lost it and couldn't find it anywhere. I told him I left it in my office . He takes down all my information. Then another cop stops and again comes up and asks me all these questions. They make me test my brake light and of course one was out. Finally he gives me a ticket for expired inspection and no DL on sight and just a warning about the brake light. First why did he pull me over anyway, second I had when they don't just give warnings for that sort of things. I think it is ridiculous.

Well I made plans to go to DMV after work so i could get a new license to show the judge but decide to go through my bag one more time. And I found my license it really was in my office. So originally I told the cop my license was in my office thinking it was lost. But then it really was there so technically I didn't lie to the cop Right?
I hate tickets though especially the ones for dumb reasons, I always think man if I just would stayed at the key place 5 min I would of never passed him and never had to deal with all the hassle. But then again I might not of found my license.

Happy Mothers Day!

Happy Mothers Day to all the moms out there, especially my mom. I love her so much and now that I am older and married I realize more and more every day how much my mother did for me and all I have learned from her. I am also very grateful for my Mother-Law for all she does and for raising such a great son. Gabe and I are both very blessed to have 2 wonderful mothers in our lives. Mothers day at our church is a great day even for us mothers to be. The men teach all the classes and the women get to eat an amazing feast and just visit and talk; eat and socialize 2 things we women do very well.













We Love You!














Yesterday we went to a dinner-get together for a coworker whose wife is having a baby. I made a cake for the event. I found this cute cake online that was a little baby so I thought I would recreate it. In the original cake, the cake was a light pinkish peach color for the skin of the baby. Well I barely added any pink coloring to the frosting and it turned bright pink. I didn't have enough frosting to try again so I had to improvise. They didn't find out the sex of the baby so I turned the rest of the frosting I had blue and frosted half the baby pink and half blue. It turned out pretty cute.

Happy Birthday Weekend Gabe

Gabe's Birthday was yesterday. Friday night he claims his birthday weekend started. He went and played xbox with friends until 4:30am. I didn't call or complain once (that was my present #1). Saturday he did help pick up and clean but he watched the NFL Draft all day and the Lakers Game (again didn't say anything Present #2). He bought a Grill (present number 3). Today we had about 25 people over for a BBQ and party. (Present #4). I made a him a giant cake (present #5).

Now his birthday weekend is over so he gets to clean up the whole mess from the Party!

Here is Gabe and his cake. I am making a cake for a friend's wedding so I needed to practice. That is why it is so big and girly. I added a little manliness though. Happy Birthday Gabe! Love Ya.

A Hard Days Work

I have really wanted Gabe to do something about the side of the house that leads to the back yard for a while. The grass wouldn't grow and the dogs would constantly bring dirt inside the house. Not to mention the giant hole they dug or the mud that they would get in when it would rain. This Sat. with the help of great friends they laid down a nice brick path to the backyard. I had to go to work and when I came home it was almost finished so Gabe and I put the finishing bricks around the edge. I hung some flower planters and I'm going to attempt to grow flowers. We will see... I haven't been too successful in the past, but we got miracle grow soil and they are in the sunlight so we will see. The backyard is finally getting started, now I might actually go outside. Before I hated it because my shoes would just get muddy. Here's some photos off all the hard work.

Happy Easter!

I am so Grateful for my Savior and his love for me and the knowledge I have of his Atonement and Resurrection. I know that my Savior Lives and that he suffered and died so that we might return and live with him and Heavenly Father again. What an amazing gift. Here is special testimony from one our Apostles on the Atonement of the Savior. I am so grateful for a Latter Day Prophet and Apostles that bear witness of the Savior and Heavenly Father and teach me principles that will lead me home.

Youth Talent Show

A couple weeks ago we had a youth talent show at church. Lets just say my box of dress up clothes came in handy when the young men planned their skit. Here are the high lights.

We did that skit when some one else is your arms and you put makeup on; I don't normally have lip gloss on my eyes.

Spring Break!

Last week was spring break for Texas Tech. I didn't get to go on an cruise like Casi and Jonathan (which I am pretty jealous about and will probably secretly hate them when I see their pictures), but I did have a nice week. Gabe and I both had to work until Thursday. The Rec Center was so dead. No one is here, so I was able to help out with the kids spring break camp. It was a lot of fun. Nothing beats dodge ball with a bunch of 8 year old. They were actually pretty good except didn't quiet get the concept of when the ball hits you, you are out. We had 2 great parties with friends over the week. Gabe and I are the officially game bringers. Because Gabe will randomly go out and buy yard games. Our Corn hole game got so much use this last week that it broke. Still usable but I bet one day I am randomly going to find a new one in my house. On Friday Gabe and I went to Dallas and got to spend time with Robin, Chris and the kids. I love being around family and am grateful for them always opening their home to us.

I had a Yoga Conference in Dallas for work so that was the purpose of our trip. It was a lot of fun and very informational. I have been teaching yoga for almost a year now and honestly didn't know much so it was great to get some ideas and great knowledge and improve my skills. Now I have mad Yoga skills. Here is me showing off my sweet skills I picked up after one training.














Okay maybe that isn't me, but maybe one day! Okay here is a picture that could be me if I lived on a beach. I can do this and I really wish my training was on a beach. One day I will do Yoga on a beach anyone like to join me!
