Tis the season to make New Year Resolutions, I am really going to try super hard to make and keep some in 2009. I really think that its my year to shine! some that I came up with are:
-Eat healthy ( Lay off the fried foods, chocolate, soda, and chips). I know that this is a lot of people's goal for the new year but I think that I really need to do this it feels so good to eat healthy and makes you happy!
- Exercise!!! Yet again another one that is typical but with my first check I really need to get a gym pass and to work out then if I do want to skimp a little on the healthy food with chocolate I won't feel as guilty.
- Service, I would love to help people more and be more giving of myself this year, whether that be at the temple or volunteering for something.
- Waking up early! I am the worst at being up early I am so not a morning person I love staying up late and sleeping in late. I really need to overcome this because I think it will be a super rude awakening when I have kids! Plus no one likes a grumpy gills in the morning!
- Putting myself together. I have become so lax with my attitude towards getting ready everyday yeah it is a huge pain in the butt and I do dread it but I think it just adds to your self confidence and makes you just feel like a hottie! I can't promise this will happen everyday but there will be an effort on most days.
Also there are various others that are on my mind but I have been trying to work on them before now I'm just adding these to my list! I hope that you all have a Happy Happy New Year!

Feliz Navidad Part Tres
Christmas Day at the Rudolph's is always a blast! Nate nuked zombies with my bro Steve the night before while my Mom, my sis Kenz, and I got comfy in our new pj's and played the card game Phase Ten while watching My Big Redneck Christmas we also realized that possums are way creepy and are possible in cahoots with the devil! Christmas morning was soooo fun my bro definately suprised everyone with getting my mom a new Nikon touch camera, talk about DELUXE! I love putting extra thought into my gifts for people so that I can show them how much they mean to me. I made my mom a crosstitch I did this because she makes all of her kids blankets with a crosstitch on them when we were born and then she gave Nate and I one for our wedding so I thought she we would like it. Now granted it was my first crosstitch the first half was a little on the iffy side but the rest looked pretty decent. It was a chef as I said earlier but we definately had a love hate relationship, crosstitches take FOREVER, and I am a very impatient person! But here's some pics of our great day! Enjoy ;)
Ahh my new Rachael Ray Knifes which are amazing!
Gettin Lasered baby (Ignore the no makeup look please)
Natey with the game he wanted
This look is pretty scary but I love my double bubble

Feliz Navidad
I am sitting here at a quarter to eleven at night Nateyless it truly is sad ;(. Today has been a weird day so I decided to blog about it, I had my last day of work and it was soooo sad. Just thinking that I won't see my friends at work almost everyday and make silly jokes about how redonkulous Downeast is, and the sweet deals on clothes that we would get on a weekly basis it really is sad. I mean how am I suppose to go back to buying clothes for regular price instead of fifty cents an item? It will be a rough transistion for sure! I did start my new job today though, I am so grateful for it and it pays me a lot more! The set back is that I have to sit on the computer all day and my attention span is HORRIBLE! But again I am so grateful we are really blessed things could be a whole lot worse!
On a lighter note our Christmas was just splendid, stay tuned for pics. Our festivities included a fiesta Christmas Eve with the Bshaws, My Big Redneck Christmas and Christmas morning my house, me un-veiling my creative domestically crafty side to my mom with her gifts of a crosstitch of a chef and tapestry with coffee dyed fabric I did all by myself, Natey giving me the most awesome gift of being able to get laser hair removal (I have been wanting forever I will not disclose where but will let you know of the results), and last but certainly not least my mom elbowed me and gave me a black eye!!!!( On accident of course)! Seriously mom I know you will read this and I am completely fine and love you ;)!
We were completely spoiled rotten this year we are so lucky to have such great families and friends who love and care for us. We miss them already, I wish Christmas was a week long celebration kind of like hannukah but with still believing in christ. I am looking forward to the new year it will hold a bunch of new adventures for me and natey such as GRADUATING!, and if I can a pet! We hope that your holidays were as great as ours! Love love

A Friends and Family Thanksgiving
Yet again I am sorry for the delay on this post if my computer at school would allow me to upload photos we wouldn't be in this predicament! Anywho this year's Thanksgiving was spent with the Bshaw side it was sooo fun we had some of our BF's come with us who we have missed ridiculously a ton, Cade and Carrian and Peys! We were so happy to have them with us. Hopefully someday soon we will be neighbors again and I can steal Pey and play her off as my own ;)! We wish we had more time to spend with them the holidays are always so crazy we wanted to make sure we saw everyone.
I only put this pic up to show Pey and Carri's goreousness
I am pretty sure all the food I ate went directly to my face!
But check out these hotties both should be models!
