Humorous happenings of 2008

First and foremost, I dropped my phone in the toilet.  Ok, I'm glad we got that obvious one out of the way. 

Melissa got married.  Uh, this isn't a humorous one, but a very joyous one.  Douglas and Melissa are happy and expecting, and starting a wonderful eternal and blissful journey together.  

I graduated from High School.  This, some may find humorous.  I can understand if you do, I mean, I did barely pass the minimum attendance for senior year. But then again, half the time I ditched no one knew.  If the Mountain Vista Administration only knew the special deal Mrs. Lammers and I had going on, my diploma would be revoked!  

I lost 20 pounds.  For a year, mmm...that's not a lot of progress.  But hey, it's progress, so I must give myself credit. I'm hoping for more this year.  

I made a twin size quilt!  

I worked at Deseret Book.  That job had many benefits. I killed two birds with one stone by eyeing cute missionaries and checking them out (someone PLEASE pick up on the pun there...if only Peter could see this...) .  Tuesdays were the best days to work, P-day for these missions; and I didn't work them often, so it was a sweet treat...for the eyes ;)

Oh my, how could we forget the incident on the cruise.  The shuffle board incident?  Someone else may have to tell this story.  For those who don't remember, I was on the slippery shuffle board, got myself all reved up like a car, and had my leg out behind me, and the other in front, the front leg slipped, and whew, there you go.  My back leg flew up, my front leg was still stretched way out in front, and I fell right into the splits. I finally found some good and funny videos to illustrate what happened. So, imagine me doing this without the Rollerblades, and it was definitely not on purpose.  Keep scrolling down to see the videos.

I didn't think we were supposed to talk about the "incident" on the "cruise" (I am putting the cruise in quotes too because jamie still doesn't know about it).

Anyway congrats Laura on accomplishing a ton in 08! Also, Douglas and I got married in 07 but thats okay it was close enough to 08. It was really important to Douglas that we got married in 07 because of, you know, the tax break. I actually made the same mistake when I made that scrapbook for mom and dad, it also says 08. Well, good luck in 09!
