Me vs the stairs

Do you ever have one of those days where you dont want to get out of bed and then through out the day you realize you really should have just stayed in bed?! My husband thinks I am a little Dramatic but this morning my alarm went off at 5:20 like usual I pushed snooze one to many times to the point where I was now running late. I have a routine every morning where I shower then put sweats on and finish getting ready, Then I run outside and start my car and come back and get dressed. Well this morning  I let the dog out and was looking for shoes that I could hurrry and put on to go start my car. The only ones that were by the door were Jason's big cluncky skater shoes so I put them on and took one step outside on our porch and ate it down the stairs. They were so Icey that I didnt even stand a chance of making it down them without falling!! It hurt so bad and I swear I had to of  broken a bone, so after  crying a "little" bit and trying to get up I see Jason half a sleep darting out of the bedroom in his G's. The conversation went something like this.

Jason- What happend, Where is the dog?
Me-I ate it down the stairs
Jason- oh... by the way you were Screaming/Crying I thought for sure The dog got hit by a car or something
Me- Showing him all my battle wounds, and I tell him "you didnt put Salt on the ice" (I had to blame the embarassing moment on someone right?)
Jason- use the railing!
Me-Crying trying to get dressed limping around the house (ok so I may be a little dramatic but I swear I cracked the stair thats how hard I hit!)  Pulled out a white shirt to put on and Jason goes you already have one of those on.. I proceed to tell him its a SHIRT not my G's. Jason trying to be helpful notices my finger is bleeding and tells me it will feel better if I pull that skin off. Wrong! not to mention it got blood on my shirt.

I finally made it to my car and cried the whole way to work. Im not sure if it was because my butt hurt so bad, or my pride kicking in. I just hope no one saw my little slip down the stairs.

I know this is kind of a stupid blog post but I find myself  replaying it in my head and laughing at it. I think it is so funny that I blamed Jason for not putting salt on the stairs, and that he darted out of bed so fast when he heard me cry, or as he says Scream thinking the dog got hit by a car or something serious happend.

The stairs definetly won this morning as I  have bruises on my hand, arm, legg, and butt! I thought what a great start to the day but luckily it hasnt been that bad of a day!

Lets bring on Spring no more snow please!!

Its A Good thing

 Avery had a Birthday!!

So that we could go to Chuckey Cheese!

We were so excited!

We all Played

Concentrating so hard

He Watched our stuff so we could all go spend the tokens.

Such a good dad!

Happy Birthday Avery!! We all had just as much fun as she did,  Its nice to be a "kid" every once in a while!

Lights, trains, and more!

We decided to have a little sibling Christmas party with the Erickson Clan. We rode the train down to SLC my nephew Mason was so excited. Then we went to the gateway and had dinner. After dinner we went to temple square and looked at the lights and then headed back to Ty and Cap's house for some yummy dessert that she made and to exchange gifts. It was so much fun and hopefully we can make this a tradition. Seriously there is never a dull moment when you get us all together.  When we were going to get on the train we all piled in the elevator and stood inside it for a good amount of time before we realized that no one pushed the button!

As Jason says "good thing you wore your train hat!"

so pretty

Christmas Bingo

This is one of my Favorite Traditions. every year we get together and play Christmas bingo for prizes there are a variety of prizes from funny shirts to money. I scored this year since I won black out! This year we made Gingerbread houses and it was a lot of fun. Each couple made one, well Austin and Clint had to do one together since they were dateless!  My dad and uncle judged them and sadly Me and Jason took third. I love this time of year and spending time with family and friends.

House Update!

We have moved in! We still have some little things to work on and I am still cleaning dust and feel like  I will be everyday for the next Month, but we are finally starting to get settled and put everything away. Here are some after pictures, we still dont have any decorations hung up, mainly because I dont have much and cant wait to decorate (pictures are a little dark our camera is almost broken for good )

Santa Came early!

I came home to find our very small Christmas Tree (one that we bought while dating) set up and plugged in and under neath it was.....

This little Guy! Notice the bow.. That was Jason wrapping him!

We named him Ace and we love him... He on the other hand does not know what to think of us.  He is really scared right now and I will call him to come to me and he will just run the other way and hide under something or in a corner. Its sad but once he gets use to us and our home  I am sure Ace will love us! Oh and dont mind our dirty floor in the picture we are still in the process of getting settled and dust is everywhere from the re modeling.

Me and Ace

I have such a thoughtful Husband. We decided not to buy each other anything for Christmas this year since we just bought a house and re modeld it. He says this doesn't count because he sold one of his guns to buy me a puppy. I love him!  Another thing most people know about me is that it is very hard to surprise me. I snoop and try and figure everything out. I seriously had NO idea I would be getting a puppy Jason Surprised me good!

Tis the Season....

FOR EGG NOG!!

I was so excited when I saw egg nog at the store last night. So I bought some and brought it home so excited to show Jason and to have some! Jason said eww sick.... WHAT? who doesnt like egg nog?! Growing up we always mixed it with Sprite and I love it! I guess that means more for me :)
