The Office

Ben and I have been watching a TON of The Office episodes. We probably average watching about 5 episodes a day haha. So in honor of one of the funniest shows created, I have decided to post some of my favorite quotes from the show. Enjoy!


1. "I hate, hate being left out. Whether it's not being picked for a team... or being picked for a team and then showing up and realizing the team doesn't exist. Or that the sport doesn't exist! I should've known. "Poop ball?" - Michael Scott

2. Jim Halpert: Question. What kind of bear is best?
Dwight Schrute: That's a ridiculous question.
Jim Halpert: False. Black bear.
Jim Halpert: Fact. Bears eat beets. Bears. Beets. Battlestar Galactica.
Dwight Schrute: Bears do not... What is going on?! What are you doing?!

3. Jim Halpert: Does that include 'that's what she said'?
Michael Scott: Mmhh, yes
Jim Halpert: Wow that is really hard. You really think you can go all day long? Well, you always left me satisfied and smiling.
Michael Scott: Mmmm... THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!

4. "Toby is in HR, which technically means he works for corporate, so he's really not a part of our family. Also, he's divorced, so he's really not a part of his family." -Michael Scott

5. "One day Michael came in, complaining about a speed bump, on the highway... I wonder who he ran over then." - Jim Halpert

6. "There is a master key and a spare key for the office. Dwight has them both. When I asked, "what if you die, Dwight? How will we get into the office?" He said, "if I'm dead, you guys have been dead for weeks." -Pam Beesly

7. "Whenever I'm about to do something, I think, 'would an idiot do that?' And if they would, I do not do that thing." - Dwight Schrute

8. "I do think I'm very approachable as one of the guys, but maybe I need to be even more approachabler."-Michael Scott

9. Pam Beesly: "What was the food like in prison?"
Michael Scott: "Gruel sandwiches, gruel omelettes, nothing but gruel. Plus you can eat your own hair."

10. "Guess what? I have flaws. What are they? Oh I donno, I sing in the shower? Sometimes I spend too much time volunteering. Occasionally I'll hit somebody with my car. So sue me-- no, don't sue me. That is opposite the point I'm trying to make." -Michael Scott

A New, Wonderful Year!

I am sure most everyone is happy that the holidays are finally over. I L*O*V*E Christmas, but it seemed like we were celebrating it for about 3 months this year. I am glad to have a break from all the rush a busy time of year. Ben and I spent Christmas in California and we had a blast. We got lots of presents and went indoor skydiving with my family. It was so much fun! We celebrated New Years back in Utah with Ben's family and had a wonderful time. Now, it's time to suffer the snow with no cause. I'm ready for Summer!


Valentines Prep!
If you know me well, you know how much I love making crafts. And now that we have put our Christmas stuff all away, our apartment looks bare! So, of course, I decided to make some Valentines Day cards. Here are a few, and if you want one, give me your address and I will send you a love day card! :)

I made about 10 and I am still making more. I don't have a ton of use for them other than to decorate our mantle haha. So if you'd like one, I'll send ya one!

Classics, Glitter, and Wrapping Paper

This past weekend Ben decided to go to New Mexico to watch his brother play in the Bowl game. Since we just got Netflix, I thought I'd download a lot of good old classic movies and whip them out in a weekend! Here are a few that I watched and recommend!



Also I was able to catch up and finish our wrapping for Christmas! It felt good to finally get everything done for the Holidays. The only thing left is to wait until Thursday to go to California! We are so excited and can't wait to get away from the snow for a little bit. I am glittering candles for some gifts as well and this is what mine look like on our mantle:


They are super easy and fun to do. I just bought spray adhesive and poured glitter on them and they turned out like this! (Inspired by Martha Stewart, of course!)
We hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and remembers the reason for the season! We love all of you and thank you for your friendship! Happy holidays!!

Fun Ideas

Here are some of my favorites that I am going to attempt to make!
A friend told me about these vases. You pour paint in the vase to the top and then pour it all out and let the excess dry. You could even pour mod podge in them and then put glitter inside the vase instead. Lots you can do!

I think this is SO pretty! It could be something that can stay up all year round

These are SO easy to do, spray them with glue and pour glitter on them. SO cute!


My Obsession

Lately I have had this obsession with Martha Stewart and her cute crafts and ideas she posts on her website and I L.O.V.E stalking her website for new ideas. I'm not as talented as her by any means...but I am inspired by her work. Anyways! I have been meditating myself by making Christmas cards and decorations this season. Here are a few of the many:

Oh the Weather Outside is Frightful!

It is really hard to be a California girl and live in the Utah winters for so long now. I can't believe how cold it has gotten the past few days. I thought it was a little funny when I was working last night EVERY customer was thinking that the storm that was about to come was the end of the world. Obviously, it is important to be safe...but come on people, just be smart when there's a storm and stay home! Why are you out shopping when you are so worried about the weather? It was said on the news that this storm was supposed to be one of the biggest of the century. Luckily, Provo and Orem didn't get barely any snow, it was just absolutely FREEZING! I think the lowest it got to was about 10 degrees. Believe it or not I walked about 2 miles last night outside with my sister in law and her sister! We bundled up pretty snug, but our faces felt like they were going to break off! I was proud of myself for bearing through it because it felt nice! Stay warm Utah folks!

Yay for the holidays!

So I know that I am going to get a lot of crap for this, but I am willing to deal with it! Since I had to start celebrating Halloween, decorating and watching scary movies in September, I was promised that I could start celebrating my favorite holiday EVER in November. I know, I know, "Thanksgiving hasn't even happened yet," but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate the holiday and am grateful for Thanksgiving. I just get over-excited about the holiday about Christ, and giving, and peace. So bear with me! We just had so much fun getting everything at the dollar store. I think it turned out pretty good for how cheap everything was! :)
