Weekend with my long lost Sister.

Yep, you read the title right. This weekend I spent time with my older sister, Kristan. Kristan lives in Dallas, and we never-ever get to see each other.

It was seriously one of the best weekends that we've had in a long time. Not only did I get to know my older sister a little more, but I was also able to meet her hubby. Who, is also super awesome.

To be honest, I've always wanted to have an older sibling to talk to, and give me advice in regards to things. Don't get me wrong-I love giving advice to my younger siblings, but growing up I always wanted someone older (besides my parentals ;) )to talk to.

This weekend was awesome. We definitely over packed the weekend with things, but it was great getting to know her more and to meet her guy.

Friday night everyone met up at Gecko's and had dinner and then at 10:30 pm we all decided to go cosmic bowling! How awesome is that? Or crazy should I say? ha ha. Steve and I are such party-poops at night it was amazing that we had enough energy to do that! It was super fun though-all the guys had a lane and then all the girls-(minus Jade:we missed you!)

Saturday morning we had our family pictures taken, and then in the afternoon we had Kristan's baby shower with all the Anderson Ladies. Kristan got a lot of really cute stuff, and I'm pretty sure she enjoyed the party.

After the party we all went to Park City and went to the Olympic Park Museum. We were all getting super hungry, so we hit up a cute pizza and noodle shop-mmm! I love pizza. The food was delish, and the company was even better.

Everyone was pretty tired, so in the evening we just bummed around the house in our jammies talking and enjoying each other's company.

Sunday morning (today), we woke up and had breakfast at mom and dad's and then we went to the conference center to show Kristan and Sean. Unfortunately, time came quickly and around 1:30 they had to head to the airport. It was definitely sad saying our goodbye's-but our goodbye's are only for a short while-I can't wait to see them again! Not only did I gain a big sister this weekend, but I also gained an older brother too. I'm really so glad Kristan married such a nice guy like Sean-they make a perfect pair!

Ellen's Surprise Party!

This weekend we celebrated Ellen's 50th! Bob wanted to make it a birthday to remember-so he invited all the family to come and celebrate on Sunday night. Oh, and to make it even more awesome-it was a surprise party!

So glad that I have you as my mom in law! Happy Birthday!!

Dinosaurs.

So, little man Carson (our one and only nephew-so far) LOVES Dinosaurs. He always pretends to be a dinosaur too. It's super cute!

I called Kody and Jade to see if Steve and I could take him to the Dinosaur Museum.

So that's what we did.

When we got there he seemed a little nervous around them because they were sooo big. I really don't think he knew what to expect. Jade told me after that he thought we were taking him to the mall (the Dino play place)! Little did he know. ha ha. Cute lil' guy.

Steve and I had so much fun with him! Even though it was for a couple hours, we we're seriously exhausted! Running around all the exhibits and playing in the sand is hard work! ;)

So grateful Carson is in our lives. He's such a happy little guy! Thanks Kody and Jade for letting us spend a couple hours with you're little man.

Take me out to the ball game...

Steve is playing softball this year in a city league! I have never been much of a softball/baseball fan, but it was really fun (besides freezing..oh and raining!) Tonight was his first game and he did great! He was a bit nervous about playing-since he hasn't played in a long time.

The game was super close-14 to 15 (we being 14..unfortunately-but they did great for their first game!)

I'm really excited for the next games! Steve has a great time, I have a great time watching and I also enjoy spending time with the other wives. I think this will be a fun season!

I made Steve pose for me with his glove!;)

Caught. But it continues...

So the pranking continues...

I LOVE my job!! I get an email today from Regence Pranksters..(anonymously)

The "Regence Pranksters" sent an email out to all us saying in the heading-" I know what you did last Friday.... and then at the end they said- Gotcha!

I was laughing sooo hard!! OH MY GOSH!! I'm in practically all the pictures and I really was only there for probably 3 minutes!

My sup is such a good sport though! She sent us all an instant message that said:

So, I got an anonymous e-mail from a cell phone with proof of who put the glitter on my desk.... I have only gotten revenge on 3 of the culprits... Those of you who I haven't gotten yet, you know who you are.

Stay on your toes my friends.

and then..

See, the best part of this is April Fools day is over, but revenge doesn't have to occur on that day.... so you'll never see it coming. Muaaaaaa haaaaa haaaa aaaaahhhh

Oooh it's LADIES NIGHT!

This weekend was AWESOME, besides that fact that Steve was gone.... He was working for his dad. Which was of course, very appreciated! We love that Bob always gives Steve job opportunities for us.

Since the cabin was being remodeled, we couldn't go to the cabin for conference. So, I was able to have ladies night with my mamasita and sista's! :) We we're able to go downtown to Desert Book and have ladies night! It's always so crazy busy there, but it's awesome. It's only women-since all the men are at priesthood session. Different authors and singers come and sign books and perform. They even do a drawing-and guess what? I WON! I won a really awesome book too. I've already read half of it. It's a book that talks about the importance of being a woman and how you make a difference in different aspects of life. Whether you're a leader, grandmother, sister and of course being a mother.

Eating at a sandwich shop

I was super excited that I won-holy toledo-I look like a pasty next to Kjersti!

This is the Ochiwa family-We've known them for 10years! We met them at one of our first ladies nights and we never plan on going with them, but we always run into them-which is always awesome.

Thanks Mom, Kart and Midgey for such a fun night! Love you!

P.s. We missed you Jade and Jess!

April Fool's!

My work is AWESOME!!! My team is all about doing practical jokes on everyone-especially on April Fool's day. I've always loved playing a little joke on someone-I get that from my cute daddy-o.

My sup-Jen went to New Orleans for business this week, and didn't come back until today. My team that I work with wanted to welcome her back with putting stuff all of her desk! Don't worry she didn't think it was mean-she is a really good sport about it and got all of us back through out the day.

My friend Elizabeth wanted to toilet paper our manager Connie's office- who is over the entire office. I didn't dare to do that. Connie is super nice, but I just started working here not too long ago! I didn't want to step on any one's toes. (Connie was a good sport about it too! :))

Well when I got into the office, I was setting up my computer and my mouse wasn't working. So I unplug it and it still wouldn't work-so then I ask for batteries. I turn the mouse over and someone put tape over my mouse. The tape over mouse trick! ha! Tape kept reappearing on my mouse throughout the day! (Not too bad. huh?)

My other team mates received all the stuff on her desk-on there desk! ha ha! And Elizabeth-well, she kept getting phone calls and texts about an ad that she put up on KSL-(she never really put up an ad). Ha ha! She thinks it was Jen and Connie really getting her back!

What a fun day! I'm glad my co-workers like to have a laugh and have a good time!

P.s. Lunch was SOOOO nice! I loved eating outside in the warm weather and feeling like it's actually spring!
