About Me

I love, love Barnes and Noble. It's an addiction that is slowly becoming more and more. I love sitting in the children's section looking at the books. I enter a whole other world with no one bugging me. I love it!

I'm loving Eric Carle right now. I am becoming obsessed with children's books and he is amazing!!!!

I am loving my job and working with children. My days are so much fun!

I love, love sleep. However, I DO NOT get enough of it. My job requires days of sleep in a row which would never happen.

This cereal is de-lish!

This phone saves my life daily. I could not live with out it. I do everything on this phone. I go weeks with out even touching a computer, because I have my phone.

Social Network

I just saw the movie Social Network. It is so good.

I feel old saying that I remember when Facebook started.

I remember the first time I saw it/heard about it.

I was at Jessie Pollei's house with my boyfriend Jason Vierig.

They were all looking at Facebook and I had no idea what it was.

Only college students were allowed to have a Facebook.

I was not in college at this point. I was so excited when I got my college email address.

I was the only person in my apartment that had a Facebook.

The other girls didn't know what it was.

It wasn't until my sophmore year at college that my whole house had Facebook.

Facebook has come a long way since that.

I am so cool

I just wanted to say how proud I am that every Olympus football game so far I have only had to pay the price of a student. I pass as a high school student. I know that I am only 4 years older then a high schooler but I think It's pretty cool. It helps that I am only 5'2". I noticed when I was in Africa that no one there believed that I was the oldest. They always thought I was the youngest because I was the shortest. At the first welcoming ceremony in Kenya this African man explained to the village (in swahili) that McCall was the younger sibling to Dallin and I was the older one. Some random African in the crowd yelled out "but she is short." Everyone started laughing and I just stood there. That was my first welcome to Africa. I'll take it as long as it gets me $3 off a football ticket!

Whole foods

My school is located behind and to the side of Whole Foods. I occasionally wander over there on my break. I like to look at all the weird, natural, organic things they have. Some of the things are so weird. Especially their makeup/ beauty section. I have made friends with this cute check out girl. We always comment on each other's nail polish or head bands or talk about the latest celebrity gossip. I enjoy our 5 minute conversations every so often. It's nice to talk to another adult for a few minutes when I've been talking to kids all day. The other day she reached up to fix her hair and I learned something new about her... she represents Whole Foods to the extreme-she had some nice hair under her arm. Not the kind of hair like she forgot to shave today. I'm talkin it's been a few years. Yay for granolas.

I am also really confused about a good majority of the Whole Foods employees. They spend their time representing and advertising no chemical, organic, natural...etc. foods and products. However, I see A LOT of them outside the store smoking. I'm so confused about that. I'm sorry but it's gonna take the aspartame in my Diet Coke and the red dye #5 in my Swedish Fish a lot longer to kill me then the chemicals in your cigarette. I'm just saying

Poor child

So here is a weird story about a kid in my preschool class. Two weeks ago our theme was "families." We talked about a different family member each day-moms, dads, siblings, grandparents, aunts/uncles/cousins. The day before the "dad" day this mom came in and asked if she could talk to me. I knew that she had just got divorced and her and her boy were living with her mom. I figured she was going to tell me that when we talk about this boy's dad to say something to the extent of "he lives in another house" or "even though mom and dad aren't married it doesn't mean he isn't your dad." Boy was I wrong. She told me that they are telling the child that he doesn't have a dad. This boy is only 3 years old. Very confusing for a 3 year old boy. The man she was married to, living with and since this boy can remember has always been known as dad isn't his biological father. Once the divorce was final she had this idea to say that he didn't have a dad. She then looked at her child and said "we will find you another one some day." I think I just stood there and didn't move for like 5 minutes after she left. When it was time for "dad" day we just skipped over that child. There was no way I was going to say "(insert child's name) doesn't have a dad."

Beautiful Baby Photo Shoot

I had the opportunity last weekend to take some pictures of this beautiful girl!

Isn't she darling?

Yee-haw!

A few weeks ago my ward had a barn dance.

It turned out to be a lot of fun!

This is me and Dallin.

Too bad Dall doesn't look too excited.

Yee-haw!
