Living the Productive Life!

Well I am definitely happier when I have things to do. And I have a lot right now. It's official !!!!!! Arry's parents bought a house and their moving out! Yes, I have loved every minute of being a spoiled daughter but that is not why I signed the marriage license. So we've got plans for our new house which include (just the kitchen for now) Sanding the wooden walls, cabinets and ceiling, switching the oven and fridge places, installing hardwood floors if they don't exist already, tiling our counter top and window seal with New Venetian Gold granite countertop, hooking up the dishwasher, and doing my own backsplash which I'm so excited for! I'm ready to get those creative genes flowing because currently the faucet is dripping. So Spring break is coming up and I'm ready to pull up the sleeves and pack the parents bags. It's been nice living with them but I'm glad Jammy will have 2 parents instead of 4.
So my calling as the Enrichment Counselor is keeping me busy and I know I take on more than I have to but when you pray for service opportunities the Lord is happy to send them your way. I absolutely love my calling and the people I serve with. (You know who you are)I am really glad that we are staying the ward too.
School.....I love that too. My growth and motor development teacher Dr. Carboni is one of the best teachers I've ever had in my life. And I'm super excited to finish school in the Physical Education field but it will take a long time. I am meeting a lot of nice and fun people and it's great to have time for myself. The short but sweet walks home from school is just what I need to appreciate all of the good I have in my life.
Well here we go! Wish me luck and feel free to come and help out!

2009 Finally

Okay so I'm a little late. I meant to get another post up before the year was up but oh well. I was challenged by my oldest sister....we'll call her Nalla...to write like 20 random things, shortcomings, facts, habits or goals about myself. Well here I go.

1. I find ways to discipline myself such as: shutting my computer down so I stay off facebook for a while. Or putting a stool in the kitchen doorway to remember that it's fast Sunday and putting all the laundry on the bed so that I get it all done before I can go to sleep that night.

2. I like that what my mom told me before I got married, " Crying works." Because sometimes it does. hahah

3. Hmmm a habit? Making farting sounds to my little baby Jammy. Sometimes I do it without thinking.

4. I love when my family is all together and I wish that everyone loved being there as much as I do. It sucks they don't.

5. I love that I'm like a little sister to my brother in law. We are 12 years apart so it makes being annoying to an older sibling fun again. I hope that he doesn't mind.

6. Man I'm only on 6. Fact.... I really enjoyed being a cheerleader. It was a lot of fun and I learned a ton but I really wouldn't ever do it again.

7. Honestly the hardest thing about being a mom is dealing with my mother in law.

8. I was really surprised when I got called to the Relief Society Presidency. How could I not be? I am only 19 and they stole me from the Young Womens Presidency. Weird.

9. I hope that my little sister... uh, Nully recognizes that there is more to life than her boyfriend and her wants. I also hope she's not hit with real life like a fish on a dam wall. Ouch.

10. I love that I can talk to my dad about anything. He is one of my bestfriends and by far one of the easiest people to tease.

11. I like being able to buy myself a little something once in a while.

12. My husband Arry is very hard to shop for. He has everything!

13. I am currently studying to take my test to get my aerobics instructor certification.

14. I try to spend some one on one time with each of my siblings but it feels like there are so many barriers. I don't know why it's so hard. You'd think if someone loves you, they'd make time for you. I wish things were slightly different when it comes to my siblings.

15. People think that I am older than I am. And I like that. I like that my boss thinks it's a burn on me when he says he's twice my age.

16. I want more babies!!!!!

17. I somewhat dislike my job but I am grateful for it. The hours are what I choose. I can work from home with Arry and Jammy haha and it's a good way to learn more about my husbands passion. Plus, stay at home moms would kill for my job.

18. The number 18 and number 13 are the jersey numbers that students weren't allowed to have in middle school because they were gang numbers.

19. Fact. I LOVE cheese!

20. I've watching the following video 100 plus times.






I love my little baby! And my baby daddy! haha

See you next month!?

Sincerely,

Marcizzle

Crush #10?


By the way everyone drools over my sister's blog about her crush, I though I'd write about mine. Yes my crush #10. At least I think that is when he came into my life. #10....who knows. Anyway for the first time in a while I realized what it feels like to really have a crush again and I'm happy to know that my second oldest sister..I'll call her Nessy... gets this feeling of pop rocks and soda in her stomach but in a good way.

So my crush.... I'll call him.....Arry.... and I were playing racquetball and it's the little things that made me step back and think how fun it is to remember the crushy (crushie?) feelings. I was getting so embarrassed when I messed up, totally swinging at the air and not the ball, I was using excuses like, "I didn't want to hit the wall!" and "I hit it with the side of my racket." Why? I don't know.
He was impressing me with his skills and there aren't many physical activities that he's better than me, but at this one he is. I would love to discover more. It was like when we were first dating and got those butterflies just being with him.
His sporty style is cute because it's not sporty at all. He wears Borns to the gym with his Abercrombie shirt. haha
It's cute and that is my crush.
He's always been my #1.!

My New Blog

So what do I write on these things? Who is going to read this? Why would I tell people to read my blog?

Well I guess I can post the most adorable pictures of my new baby girl! We'll call her Jammy. She is such a good baby and I love being a mom.

So who will read this? I guess everyone I tell about it, right? Maybe.

I will tell people about my blog to save time in sending pictures messages, so people can see how fast Jammy is growing, so I have more to do than play my all time favorite game Finders-Keepers and end up dreaming about it because I play it so much. I will tell people to read my blog because that is what blogs are for.
