Twin?

Timothy took me out to a highschool play tonight..and I'm still really not sure what it was called,but it was really cute! They had it all set up so that you sat at a table and ate dessert and drank tea or apple cinder, while they sang and danced up on stage. It was actually really nice that way. But as we were being seated, I noticed this girl that looked exactly like Sister Kristen. So much so that I was searching the crowd for her husband, so that we could get them to sit next to us! Well, it turns out that wasn't Sis. Kristen, and Kristen is out of town anyways so she couldn't have been there. But it was just very strange. The girl had the same shape, same nose, same hair, almost everything like Kristen. Are there other girls in the world that look exactly like me?! Or HAVE there been other girls in the past, or future, that have looked like me? How many possible ways are there for God to make a human face look different? I suppose everything is possible with God, but that sure is a whole lot of faces to make different!! I guess that'll be one of the silly questions that don't really matter that I'll ask God one day in heaven (Lord willing), "Was every single face that He made different everytime? Or are there people that had the same face as me in the past, present and future?" I'm sure by the time I make it to heaven, I'll forget every silly question I wondered about anyways! ^-^

Other silly things I wonder about that probably have no answers:

If faith can move mountains, have any of the brethren done it?

Do you have to have an amazing amount of faith to move something so big like that?

Do God and/or Jesus weep along with us when we're going through a tough time in the faith like some songs in the church song books talk(or sing) about?

Too much Chipotle, mayhaps?

I'm the biggest dork ever. Last night I made dinner for the guys before we all headed off to church, and I wanted to make 'The ultimate spicy beef nachos' for them. Something new and different that we've never had before. Well, maybe that was a mistake. See, I was rushed for time, since I got home late from work and didnt really start dinner until around 5:30ish. I normally I like to have dinner done right when dad walks in the door or shortly after, so I was rushing around the kitchen trying to put this new recipe together quick so that we could sit down and eat and relax a bit afterwards. I had a medium sized can of Chipotle chiles that I had to open, and I thought that on the recipe it called for a medium sized can of Chipotle. And at the time I was wondering why in the world wasn't it telling the can size? But I continued on and put the whole medium can into the meat.
Today I got some sad text messages from the guys complaining that their stomaches hurt most the day. And, I was just thinking, well, maybe they shouldn't have ate that much. Welll, I was talking to my mom, and she mentioned that the recipe called for one medium sized Chipotle, not medium can of Chipotle!!! Those poor guys! No wonder it was so hot. O_O I don't normally miss things like that in recipes, so don't be scared to come over here and eat my food, it was just a mistake, I promise!!!

Anyways, I just thought that was pretty funny, because once the guys found out what I had done there was alot of "Lorrraaaainnneee!!" and lots of tales of how their day was in pain. So, I'm sorry guys, you know I didn't do that on purpose, and you know that hardly ever happens!! Next time I will follow the recipes completely, and make sure when it says something weird to read it slowly, so I get it. Heehee!

Young peoples visit!

This week I decided I wanted to have the young brethren (we call it young peoples visit) over to our house. There's lots to do, i've decided that instead of making a dessert this time, that I'd make a little appetizer for everyone. I've never had a 7 layer mexican bean dip, so I'm trying it out! So I'm pretty excited about that. :)

On my way home from shopping I was pulling out of Safeway, and a big huge truck decided to pull in, and you know how they have to make a wide turn when they want to turn, well, I'm not sure if he saw me, but he was just inches away from hitting me hard. I was so scared I didnt know what to do, so I just held down on the horn, lol. Not that that would've done anything for me or him. Just made it scarier.

Anyways, I better get to cleaning the house and getting ready for the visit tonight! Can't wait!

Laptop

Wheeyooo! For my early valentine's day present this year (for myself) I bought myself a laptop! It was kind of hard to get on the computer sometimes because the 3 brothers that are still living at home with me, would be on playing the computers, until late at night. So I decided it was time to get a little computer for myself, something that I could look up recipes, and other little things without having to kick someone off the computer or wait for my turn. Heeehee,I'm enjoying it because i can take it with me into the kitchen when I'm cooking and look up recipes, or just get comfy in my bed or out in the living room on the couch. The only thing thats different about this computer is that its a MacBook...its a LOT different then a Dell computer...you've gotta learn a whole new system, and its the total opposite then a Dell. Phew. But I thought it'd be a good thing for me to learn something new other then the normal dell system that I'm so used too. I get to use my brain a little more, heehee. Anyways, my oldest brother, Philip, helped me with finding the right laptop, and telling me the pros and cons of a dell and a Mac. So far I'm enjoying Mac a lot more then dell,and slowly but surely learning how to use the different things on it! Thanks for helping me, Philip! =D Maybe now I'll go with you and help you find a laptop! =o

Big sigh

Well, we finally heard from the apartment today, annnnd...we got denied. We can try again once we get a credit account for both of us. But that'll have to be after we've both had them for 6 months at least. SO! We shall try again when we can, and if that doesn't work then maybe it's not what God has planned for us. We shall see, I suppose!

Anyways, Happy Valentine's day everyone!

Apartments

Yikes! My little brother, Timothy and I are looking for an apartment to move into. Annnnd the one we're wanting to get (if its God's will) is right below my other brother Thomas!And it just so happens, that's the only one that has no offers on it yet. (Who knows if thats a good thing or not) AND it just got new carpet and the walls were just painted. I'm really just kind of seeing whats going to work out. We've gotta apply for it, of course, but if it doesn't work out then it's no big deal. I've never really been away from my mommy and poppi that much, so it'd be a big change for me if I left...but I guess it'd be that way too if I got married someday too. :/
But if we do get it, I can play house! And sorta get to see what it's like to have a husband to take care of. -Sigh- So, here we go to apply for the spot!! Hope I'm not doing something stupid! >.< I'll keep an update on that...

Polar Bear and choking

I figured out what baby Max's nickname is! Might sound weird, but he looks like a cute little polar bear to me. As I was holding him last night while he slept, he just looked so peaceful and sweet and for some reason it reminded me of a baby polar bear. SO!I shall now call him 'Maxie Bear'. ^-^

Anyways! While I was at work today, I had quite a scary adventure...although I don't know if you'd call it an 'adventure'. I was feeding the kids lunch today (A breakfast burrito) and the youngest girl took a bite of her burrito. Now..it wasn't a big bite, but she's quite the piggy and like to scarf it down fast. So, while scarfing it down, she started choking! She wasn't breathing again, like the last time this has happened, so it really scared me bad. I really try and stay calm while this is happening so I don't scare the kids, but this time I was even more frightened then the last time. I tried everything I could think of to do, (or what I was taught in CPR class) and tried each thing on her, and she was still struggling to breathe. I finally had to just stick my finger and get the tortilla part that was choking her. It ended up making her gag enough that she was going to throw it up, and she did. I absolutely hate that part about baby-sitting peoples kids. My worst fear is that that'll happen to me and they'll die....and it's happened to my twice (the choking part, not the dying part). Don't get me wrong, I'm really not a bad baby-sitter and it doesn't happen to me alot(thank the Lord),I just happened to baby-sit a little girl that likes to eat very fast. So now, in the future, i'm not going to put anything in front of her because of it happening to me twice. Both times though the Lord heard my quick prayers out loud, and answered them as soon as I spoke.
