We interupt this wedding programming for some random news...

Our townhouses are having some work done. we have had to clear away stuff from our yard so that they can replace rotten boards and will then repaint it. we are lucky in that we have a storage closet that someone built in that no one else has. we utilize it to the fullest. we got notice that they had to replace boards on the outside and that everything would have to be taken out. after reviewing it they will decide if we can still have the storage unit.UGGH! we have no garage and this is our main storage. anyway we had to remove everything yesterday, that was fun especially with nowhere for it to go. some is on the front lanai, some is on my bedroom balcony and everything else shoved in some closet.


we either qualify as a yard sale or white trash:)

after we did this i ran to the store and matt went to swim. we just let baxter hang out in the house where usually we crate him while we are gone. we had left some food storage from the closet on the floor in the entryway. when matt came home he called me and told me what baxter did. he left it for me to see when i got home.
he chewed a hole in the baggie, got out a granola bar pack and ate the whole 2 bars and had crumbs on his mouth!
when i got home i looked at him and he hid from me behind matt. he knows exactly what he did and that he shouldn't have done it. i kept calling him but he would not look at me.


this is "i am submissive to you and i'm sorry!!" matt and i could not stop laughing, he was like a little kid. he came and said sorry by giving me kisses and all is forgiven!

i got to see pam in cali but as soon as the reception was over they got ready to come to hawaii for our ward camp so i got to see her again when i got home. she is such a blast! she was sooooo gracious and let my friends stay at her home for the week. they had fun and we all really appreciate it.
last night a few friends went out to see eclipse and get dessert, it was so fun to hang out and talk until 12:15 a.m.!

juli, pam, sam and val
and me

and lastly, today is my birthday. a friend of caleb's is selling high end knives (CUTCO) we ordered 2 and they came in, it is my birthday and i have a thing for good knives but i have never had a really good, super duper sharp knife. in the demonstration it cuts a penny and a rope!
this morning i went to cut a watermelon saying to matt i hope i don't cut my finger off. cutting it the knife slid off and went straight through my finger like it was paper. it didn't even hurt it was so quick and sharp. i just started calling "matt, i did it!" and as i saw it open up to reveal white inside i said "i really did it"!
i grabbed a towel and we held it tight for a few min. he examined it and said that it would hold together o.k. if i didn't want to go fool with stitches so i agreed. of course i had to grab my camera!
it doesn't look that bad here but i didn't want to pull it apart and show how deep it is. it is just really the part where the most blood is the rest is surface.
matt butterflied it and wrapped it with this second skin stuff to hold it together. i think it will be fine. but happy birthday to me and my new knives!!
i also got the newest kindle that comes out aug. 27th!
