The Hinckley Boarding Home

We are now official residents at The Hinckley Boarding Home!

And loving every minute of it!

A couple of weeks ago we decided to just leave the apartment and stay with Mom and Dad, I mean at that point NOTHING could hurt. We were still stick all tht time and Patrick was not getting better after like 5 months of being sick. So we just picked up some of out stuff and went to stay at their houe. Not even a WEEK later, Patrick is feeling 20 times better than he was before.

We thing that there is something seriously wrong with the air quality at that apartment, when we go back to get some of our stuff to move out, you can just feel how heavy the air is and it actually hurts your lungs when you breath (at leat it does for us). We looked it up and it is called Sick Building Syndrome- seriously!!! It is from something in the apartemt that makes you sick- we think that there is probably mold and stuff in the attic and air conditioner. SO we are very very glad to be out of that apartment. Patrick is going to be back at work with in a week or two which will be so great!!!

We have been a little sick lately, the flu sprreads like wildfire at my work... seriously, and as soon as I get sick I give it to Patrick. I am a carrier of ALL DISEASES, I swear!!!

Other that getting better we have not done much this month...
Other than...

I am BRUNETTE again!!!! Thanks to Papa Hinckley, I was finally able to cover up the blonde and go to my more natural darker hair- Blonde was fun, but just not me!


I am reading a lot lately... to name a few I read this month


The Runaway Jury (John Grisham)
A Time To Kill (John Grisham)
The Symbol( the new Dan Brown book)

Date Night

This past weekend I really wanted to go out to Olive Garden and see a movie- but seeing as we are broke, we couldn't go. So I decided to make our own Olive Garden dinner. I made some Yummy Potato Ham soup, homemade breadsticks, and salad. Patrick cleaned up the living room and lit candles all around the room. It was raining outside, and we had a romantic dinner on our coffee table (because we still haven’t finished our dining table yet.) And then made a bed on the floor and fell asleep listening to the rain. It was actually a really romantic day, just doing nothing. I love the Patrick!

Last night I had just washed my hair and was NOT in the mood to dry it! So Patrick offered to dry my hair for me! He was so patient and he worked on my hair for a half an hour just drying it and making it all smooth and straight! I think he is going to be my new personal hair dresser!! He must love me!

The Impossible Quiz

So yesterday I was at work, things began to get a little slow, SO I went online to find a game to play. I started this game called the

*** IMPOSSIBLE QUIZ ***

I though psshhh come on it CAN'T Be impossible- probably just word problems, riddles and logic. You have 3 lives to answer the right question and then its GAME OVER.

I did not get far, but I kept playing and playing, trying to get past each answer, and eventually dying and having to start ALL over again.

So when I got home I showed Patrick... we started playing at 8:oo and by 11:30 we finally gave up... for now. We even looked up a cheat sheet online, but this quiz is IMPOSSIBLE!!!! Well not impossible but INCREDIBLY HARD!!!

I TRIPPLE DOG DARE YOU to try this game, and if you beat it I will be thuroughly impressed!!!

When we finally beat it YOU will know!!!
Good luck gaming!!!

Cowboys PreSeason Game

On Thursday last week I got home and Patrick said he had a surprise for me. I had NO idea what it was but I hoped it would be inexpensive!...

It was... Pre Season Cowboys tickets- Twenty bucks... Jackpot!!!





This was the first game in the newly constructed Cowboys Stadium with the 60 yard long HD TV... It is the biggest in the world right now!!

We went with Big Lou and Lewis to the game. It was so cool to actually BE there. Parking was $40,and we were NOT about to pay that so we parked like a mile away and walked to the stadium. It wasn't too bad, but by the time I got there I for sure had blisters from my flip-flops!

When you see the stadium it looks like a spaceship. It is so amazing. You walk in and come out onto a balcony that overlooks the field which is about 2 stories below you. Our seats were at the very top so we hiked up there, and got ready for the game! I am sure glad they had the big screen, because from where we were sitting, the players were tiny!

The game was awesome, but by the fourth quarter all the second string players were in, so we left a little early, walked back to the car and had dinner at On the Boarder. All in all a GREAT surprise! I am glad we went once, but I don't think that I would dish out $100 for a regular season game. I would rather be at home watching it from the comfort of my couch! BYU Games however are different... and as soon as we get back to Utah.. a season pass wil be the First thing we get :)
