Full House

Grandma Denninghoff is here, its the couch for me! blah.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is in my car's stereo ( I am 14 of 15 for Chamber of Secerts).

Today is Unlce John's birthday! Therefore, I bought alcohol for the second time in my life.

I am reading a book about Matthew Shepard, written by his mother. That poor, poor boy. More to come on that later.

I am trying decide if I want to read or watch "The Secert Life of Bees".

Scrubs season 2 is on going.

I made the best father's day card (picture soon).

And finally....

^This is a perfect curl. Dang, I love my curly hair!

This is what I have been doing all day...

Less than thirty pages and I am done with "The Secret Life of Bees"!Getting sucked into a book is one of my favorite things. I also have this thing that once I start a book and get sucked in I am done within 24 hours. This is good but bad because once it is down, I feel really sad, like something is gone. I become that main character and I even dream about it for awhile. I found the movie and reserved it. I watched the trailer for it and I got even more excited. My mom told me she gets jealous when I get sucked into a book because she wants to read it. I also need to remember to tell my cousin, Jessica, to read it. We always talk about books and movies to one another via text and facebook

My Doctrine & Covenants is in my Book of Mormon

Today was my first Sunday as a primary teacher! Oh my, it was I dont even know how to describe. Six year olds like to talk and move and giggle and say weird things. I dont know how I will survive this calling but I am determined! I will figure out a way to make the learning fun and make them love me. I must admit, it will take some geting use to being called Sister Ploth. They told me, I have a weird last name and they thought I was 33. Oh golly!!

Now for the past few days this is what I have been up to....

Listening to this while driving. I am almost done and I am 15 on the waiting on the list at the library. boo!


Watching Scrubs season 1! All 9 seasons are on Netflix and I love it!!



I started reading this book and I love it. I am excited to watch the movie after.



I made this display at work. I love it! I have been changning some things around at the shop to be able to get to know the products and give people more of an idea of what we have. Tanaua and I have been working together and bouncing ideas off of each other. We have lots more of ideas for displays for the future. This is our 4th of July one.



Finally, Drew cracked his head open! Oh my. It was so funny!! Well, not really. So we were all out in the yard not doing as hard work, at least I wasnt. I was reading on the porch, Oma was planting flowers, Drew was on the machines, and everyone else was doing random things. Well I hear Drew say, "Get in the suburban! We are going to the hospital!" I look up from my book and he is holding his head, with blood running down!! I ran inside and grabbed a towel. Turns out he stood up and banged his head and scraped his eyebrow. Mom and I went to the ER and didnt have to wait long, which was good. He got a staple in his head and four stitches in his left eyebrow. He lived! And had a great attitude. However, being in the hospital made me think of Scrubs and I really wanted to see the characters from the TV show!

In other, exciting wonderful news!! I signed the last papers of my mission papers and the Bishop handed my papers to the Stake President. I should hear from President (Call I think his name is) this week! WOOT! WOOT!

We don't need your business

I love my job. Somedays it sucks. Somedays I want to walk out. Somedays I even question why I work there. But in the end, I LOVE IT. I learn something new everyday, I work with amazing people, and everyday is an adventure. The customers are great, most of the time and I dont have to wear a silly uniform. Though I have a boss, I have to motivate myself to do things. I like the days where I can clean freely and take it easy. When it gets crazy and I have to be a million peopleand a million places then I feel accomplished. However, there are the days where I get a rude customer who makes me so mad that I could just spit or I want to cry. Today there was a rude customer. I didnt cry and I didnt get mad, I was just blah. Just in case all you dog owners didnt know...YOU NEED TO BRUSH YOUR DOG!! If your dog is matted, the dog is in pain. Imagine having knots all in your hair and your hair is everywhere on your body. Well sometimes rich people dont relaize that they need to brush their dog, if not there is a brush out fee. When a dog is older and needs brushing out it is painful. So I had a customer call me and tell me that she pays us for the grooming and we shouldnt complain that the dog is matted. Also the haircut wasnt good enough and she wouldnt be bringing back Hugs and Kisses. Well, GOOD! I dont want to deal with them and you. And the shop wont be losing any money.

So that was my rant. Everyone is here now. Pretty exciting. Kai's birthday is tomorrow. Tonight Drew, Mikey, and I went and got birthday gifts. It was intersting to see what we all got. I hope his birthday is awesome.


BROTHERS!

The start of a crazy two weeks

First off, my computer isnt working, again. I dont even understand. I just need him to work for the next few months. Thankfully my mommy is so kind and lets me use her lappy.


Today work went by so fast. I clocked in at 12:47 and the next thing I know its 4:00 and my cleaning wasnt officially started. It was so weird. But overall, a good day. No one was rude and I got everything done that I needed to. After work I went to Taco Time to read my scriptures. I am so behind on my reading for the month but I know I can do it if I push forward. I was reading in 2nd Nephi 9 and I loved it all!! It is about the atonement and I just fell in love again. The atonement is something in my life that I can always reflect on and remember what it has done. I like these chapters of the Book of Mormon because they are compared to Isaiah and I love Isaiah's teachings. One time I met him at the SLC Temple Square. (:

The next exciting thing is that DREW IS BACK! And Uncle John is back! And Mikey is being picked up! And Oma comes in tomorrow. I am so excited for the next few weeks. It is going to be crazy and fun and loud and annoying but great. Kai is turning 8 this week and is getting baptized. So that will be a neat experience to share with the family.

Pressing Forward

So here I am, back in the blogging world! I am going to try really hard to keep up with this ish since some exciting things are happening.

1.) I should have my call by the end of the month
2.) There will be 4 more people in my house by Wednesday: Oma, Uncle John, Drew, and Mikey!!
3.) I have TWO callings at church. The first one being, I am a ward missionary leader so I get to help out the Sisters. I hope to get to know them and really befriend them and serve my ward. The second is, a long term sub for the CTR 6 primary class. Yep folks, I will be going to primary for the first time in my life! I am super excited (and nervous, mostly).
4.) Tara and I are reading the BOM this month and I am so behind! She is such an inspiration and always reminds me to keep going!

So exciting things for the day:

Ani got a haircut! She looks super cute!!
I started listening to Personal Revelation by JoAnn Hamilton (but my computer stopped working so now the disc is stuck in there...dangit). Its super good. Its all about listening to the Holy Spirit. I was cleaning today and a lot of what she said helped me. What is cool about her book is that it contains scriptures and her personal stories. It made me think about how I listen to the Holy Ghost and how I need to be better.

Well I dont want to overwhelm myself, since I havent posted anything since January...haha. But hey, practice makes perfect!

Salsa Sunday

Well blog, I am now 21 and have started my sixth semester at BYU-Idaho. It has been a lovely journey. It does not feel like school. Probably because I do not go to school as much as others.

I am taking classes mainly for my minor so I can get my AA before my mission. This is just in case I do not come back to BYU Idaho or whatever. However, the plan is to come back. I love my classes, so far. They have to do with families and they all blend together so it feels like I am just learning lots! On Thursday, my roommates threw me a surprise party which was amazing. I would be lying if I did not say I did not enjoy attention. (:

On Friday, I got blood work done for my mission papers AND biggest winner. Biggest winner is a program on campus where you work out and lose weight! Jessica and I got into it and we are very excited.

Saturday, ward talent show. Yeah...we have talent....

SUNDAY! I taught a wonderful lesson. I am really grateful to study the New Testament and Christ's teaching. I love Mary and how she was able to do the Lord's work. What a great example as a mother and follower of Heavenly Father. I am going to work on being a woman like her.

So that is about it. Now I am watching Beauty and the Beast. What a life.
