Trilogy Boston

Courtyard view from Sam's apartment.

This place is like a hotel, and it snowed this morning.

Naptime

Audrey's sleeping right now, and oh how I would love to be doing that as well. Unfortunately I drank a 16 oz. Green Tea with my lunch, and can't sleep at all. It was delicious though. Next time I'll have to make some herbal tea instead.




It is one of my favorites. Try it sometime.

Two Days

So another year another Thanksgiving. Last year I spent the holiday with Audrey, Amber, and Ryan. It was nice to be with family since the previous year I was away at school and ended up going to Utah for my room mate's family Thanksgiving. This year is going to be a whole different ballpark altogether, and strangely enough it will be taking place next to the best ballpark in the nation.

I leave for Boston on Thursday night and I will be having Thanksgiving with friends. I'm in charge of the main course so I'll have to let you know how that turns out. We aren't going to be having Turkey. I'm going to cook a Roast instead... mmm. Mom if you are reading this I need the recipe for that, and also for your French Silk Pie. This should be interesting. I will miss my family once again, but Christmas is right around the corner, and I'll definitely be there for that. Until then I love you all and have a Happy Thanksgiving.

Movie Update

Tonight Kara and I saw the new Steve Carrel movie, 'Dan in real Life.' It was awesome. Not only was it laugh out loud funny, but it's also one of those feel good movies. Numerous times I was ready to burst into tears. It's not sad. It's happy sad... It made my heart ache.



If that doesn't make sense then I guess you just have to see it for yourself to fully understand the meaning. I would totally see it again. I love how Steve Carrel makes you sorry for him in every role he plays. This movie had a 'Little Miss Sunshine' vibe, but was a completely different aspect altogether. It was nice to feel all warm and fuzzy inside on such a cold rainy night.

Little Audrey

I get bored really easily and so sometimes I feel like my days are a little longer than normal. Today Audrey did NOT want to take a nap. I tried several times, but she just wasn't having it. So, I decided to take her shopping so she could use up some of her energy. When we got home she still didn't want to take a nap despite her droopy eyes. I suggested we try snuggling. So we laid on my bed and it took her a while, but she finally dozed off. There is nothing more precious than seeing little Audrey sleeping peacefully. Sometimes, being a nanny is very hard work. I feel for the moms out there... kids are a handful. But I love Audrey and even though I get stressed sometimes it's so amazing to feel the love and trust from such a little person.



Yesterday a lady at the library told me how gorgeous my daughter was. I told her thank you, but that I couldn't take the credit because she was niece. However, other times when people tell me how cute she is I like to just play along and pretend she's mine.

Shoes

After reading Elena's new blog entry on shoes that got me thinking about boots. I need some winter boots. I like these ones I found at Delias.com. Maybe I'll add them to my Christmas Wish List.

it finally came.

I got my re-acceptance letter to BYUI today. I'm not going. I don't care, and even if I did it's not like I have the money to go anyway.
