LIST
- Do something good for someone else. Help them out in some way and make them smile. Do a favor, or surprise them somehow. Start a positive energy flow.
- Evolve or change "your look". Buy sunglasses, switch up your make up in some way, get your eyebrows shaped, change your hairstyle, maybe even get a new haircut.
- Treat yourself to a little shopping spree, and spice up your wardrobe a bit. (might be good to set a spending limit ex: $50)

Gen and Ty are both extremely busy people. Gen works full time with kids that have Autism, then has online school to do and at the same time have a life with her husband. Ty works full time as a DCE (director of Christian ed.) which keeps him very busy too. For the first thing on my list, I decided to surprise G and T with a clean house. Sunday morning they went to church but I stayed home because i was not feeling well. I figured while I was up and they were gone it was the perfect time to do this. This place was a disaster haha..... dishes were accumulating all the way around the counter tops in the kitchen (no joke), there was dog hair all along the sides of the walls on the floor, bathrooms were a mess and we had no clean towels. After a few hours of cleaning and doing laundry, this house was looking spic and span! When G and T came home they both told me how amazing the kitchen looked. I could see a big smile on Gens face and the relief that went along with it. Now she didn't have to worry about any of that mess or be distracted and she could finish her homework for the night knowing she had a clean house :). Tyler was able to just hang out and watch some tv before bed in a clean house.. Good feeling. I felt great because I know they appreciated all the work I did. I like surprising people because there are no expectations, not to mention how good would it feel if you came home to a clean house when you were expecting the disaster from hell haha.

Monday (6/20/11) I got my first pay check! When I got home from work, I had a package waiting on the porch... It was my mac laptop that my mom had given to me :)! Talk about a good day haha. See, this was an awesome surprise that made my day. Later I went to my friend Morgans house and brought my comp. I was able to meet his mom (Janet), who is an absolute sweetheart, and get to know her a little bit. We messed around with "Photo Booth" a bit, then went on a slight adventure in the storm. A few minor complications... stolen shirt? we will never know lol. Overall great time!

Tuesday was a fantastic day! Everything went so smoothly ha it was great. Before work drove to the bank to cash my checks. I wasn't positive they were going to be able to cash my checks but they were :) so I got those cashed and put some into savings which felt good. I was still early for work so stopped for coffee which was rather delectable if i do say so myself, and talked to my mom on the phone for a brief moment (it was so nice to hear from her). All the kids in my first class (school agers) were abnormally quiet and good haha so this made work go by especially fast. For the 2nd thing on my list I decided to schedule a hair apt., so after work I headed over to get that done. I also got my gorilla like eyebrows shaped haha. They were in desperate need of some grooming. Usually i would wax my own eyebrows but you see.. all my supplies to do that is in Utah with my room. I decided to make a pretty drastic change. I love it though so i hope you do too :) and if not haha I don't care<3 It was funny at work the next day. I had one kid ask if i was wearing a wig, and another one ask if I was a new teacher :) All the kids really liked my hair though and I got quite a few compliments by co-workers as well!

Lets just say that Wednesday was a rather eventful day...
For starters, the baby room was low on workers so I was put in there and got the thrilling opportunity of changing my first diaper. Luckily it wasn't a poopy one haha. But no worries, I got my share of that later this lovely day. Around 11:15am or so I was needed in the room with 3-4 year olds. One little boy who was not completely potty trained yet, decided he needed to go to the bathroom. He pulled down his pants and didn't exactly make it in the toilet to poop, but he did make it on his clothes and the floor. Although I am not so sure what this little boy was thinking or in need of, he walked around the classroom with his trousers still down to his ankles, tracking poop from the bathroom to his cubby. Another thrilling opportunity. I got to mop this mess up. hahahaahaha oh man. Gross, definitely but lets be honest.. Can you really get to mad about that? lol. 3:00 rolls around so I go to my regular pre-k class with Shalyn. For some reason, all but like 2 kids decided to be on their worst behavior possible. Oh and Shalyn went home sick. Finally after work I took a good shower and scrubbed off half my skin it felt like. It was Cindy's birthday so i stopped over there for some great bbq before I picked up Jhy and Josh to tag along with me at the mall. To complete the 3rd thing on my list, I went shopping. I bought a new swim suit (regularly $100, to my surprise it came to $84 something at the cash register!), and two new lip rings. I loved the back of the swim suit haha except I am going to get some pretty awesome tan lines for sure.

Thursday at work I we took a field trip to the pool so I got paid to lay out and play with kids for two hours.. can't complain. We only had one bloody toe, and no body drowned. Success. After work my family went out to Habachi grill for a conjoined Fathers day and Cindy's birthday celebration. By the end of dinner we were all way past full, so we took a walk around the shopping center.

Friday after work I went over to Morgans for a bbq and met a bunch of way cool new people, went swimming in the lake by his house and just hung out on the dock with everyone visiting. I also got to talk to my favorite Grandma Lee and best friend Emily on the phone for a while.

Saturday I was able to share Robbie and Jenna's big day with them. I went to their wedding ceremony during the day. Which was very beautiful might I add. Mandy and Brian sang a very moving song that they wrote. The flower girl and ring bearer were both kids from the day care :). Morgan and his buddy Alfred were the videographers for this very special occasion (wedding ceremony and reception). The reception was a blast... The food was amazing, toasts were inspirational, dancing was wild, and there was also a fun little photo booth for people to get their pics taken and then make a book for Jenna and Robbie. I was able to dance with a few of the kids from the daycare as well as watch them dance. Those kids can bust a move!!
