Random Thoughts

First, I have to start by sharing that I just ate about a quarter of a cheesecake while I was getting caught up on everyone else's blogs- thanks a lot. I will try to post again soon with some fun pics, since I know Jodi only likes blogs with pics. They are coming... don't get your panties in a bunch. Secondly, it was so fun seeing everyone, except notably Nic, T, and fam... but it just reminds me how you should all move closer to me ;) since I know how much you all dream of being Utarded!!
And, I just have to say that Wicked was awesome!!! And here is an attempt at some random happiness- albeit short and sweet and not nearly a complete list...
I LOVE...

-Chris, Isabelle, Abigail, Claire, and Zachary
-all my California family
-my awesome blank canvas house with endless possibility for projects (aka The Maloy Manor)
-my quilting craziness
-my laptop, so i can do this in bed
-my almost neverending supply of cute serveware, glassware, dinnerware, silverware

-that the toilets are clean right now
- that my bff lives in my neighborhood
-that Chris thinks I'm cute even when I'm not
