Luckily the other Frisbys have come to my rescue. Friday night I got to have Jordan, Bernie, Shelby, Debbie, Ashlee and Zoie stay at our place. Lots of people, but we made it work! It was really fun (and great timing) to have company stay with me. Saturday we went shopping and hosted a Lia Sophia party. It was a hard weekend for a few of my friends to come, but the ones who came made it fun. We had a great time. Jordan put on more jewelry than anyone else!
Okay, not really.
Here's a pic of Debbie, Zoie, and Shelby. I caught them in a cute moment so I had to grab the camera!
Saturday night it was just Jordan, Bernie and Shelby staying over, and we watched The Other Boleyn Girl. Bernie and I had been wanting to see it. It was okay. This family blinded by ambition to get high in society made their daughters try and get the King of England to "knock them up" with the chance of giving him a male heir. Everything after that just went downhill. It got weird, people.
We all went to church this morning. It was fun to be in the shoes of every other girl in the ward by having a toddler sit with me. I learned that Shelby has a great desire to partake of the bread and water. Haha!
So now I'm alone again. (tiny violin playing) It's pretty nice that today I didn't HAVE to get anything done though. I watched a movie, took a nap, and then finished Left to Tell, a book I've been reading about a woman's account of the Rwandan holocaust. Very sad, but inspiring. She survived and never lost hope or faith in God. She and 7 other women were crammed in a TINY bathroom for 3 months where they couldn't make any sounds, took turns standing, and hardly got any food. I highly recommend it. I'm surprised I didn't cry really– just got watery. Maybe it's the soundtrack to movies that makes me cry so much, because I feel like I cry in everything.
My sister and her husband are flying into Utah this weekend from New York, (good timing for AJ) and we're going to spend all that weekend with family. It will be really fun. My parents are coming up too, and hopefully my brother. We'll be in Utah part of the time with my dad's parents and Wyoming with my mom's to go rafting. I get to see my sister maybe twice a year, which is just ridiculous, so I'm excited!

Yea! I can't wait to see you. Don't forget about the BBQ at Gram and Gramps Perkins on Saturday.
If I lived close by I would totally come and hang out with you! I would be over there so much you would be sick of me! I did remember the sunscreen for the kids but not for myself, I was hoping that some of the sun would make a me a little tan but guess what...it didn't work. I know you understand whitey:)! You should make the taco bowls, they are super tasty and I am now in love with fajita seasoning, it is soooo good! Have you made any fun summer food lately? I think you need to post more pictures, I just saw one the other day where you were orancing around like a teradactule(sp?) Good times!:)
hehehe. Im always totally paranoid when Josh is gone too. I had to stop watching Law and Order in fear that i would be murdered in the night. Im such a wuss!!!
Thanks for offering to help with design stuff. I hope i will survive!
I'm so glad we could have come down to stay with you! We had so much fun!! It was so nice to get away from Rexburg for a few days. And guess what? We have the same picture on our blogs!
Hilary!!!
I feel bad I never got back to you about staying at your place. I totally appreciate the offer, things were just crazy and I didn't have time to respond to anyone, really. So SORRY! I feel bad. We'll be down a lot though, so if you're ever left alone again we'll drag the kidlets over ;)
Yes we should all go to Lagoon!!! That would be sooo much fun and it would help curve my beach craving. We haven't gone yet. Let me know when!
