The countdown begins!

Only four more weeks until I am an aunt!!! Can you tell I'm keeping track? I'm so excited for Monday for the Westech baby shower. I have my gift all ready and it's cute!! It's one of those diaper cakes with part of it a pregnancy t-shirt that says, "Desperate to Deliver!" I hope it fits her belly though. She's quite large these days. My Grandma and Aunt are throwing a family shower for her as well. I'm so relieved that I don't have to do anything! Well, the dessert and the invitations, but those shouldn't be too hard. I already have the invitations done and we're sending them off Monday. Here is what they look like-


It would have been quite easy because I already had the backround design, except my mom and Michelle wanted it blue because she's having a boy. So I tediously enlarged it and did dot by dot in paint. It took forever. But it looks good I guess.

Tomorrow I have two choir performances in Taylorsville. Both at Sacrament meetings. Should be fun. Speaking of performances, If any of you guys are bored out of your minds on the days of my performances, you should come. Orchestra Perf is April 16, 7pm @ Taylorsville High on redwood road. My final choir fireside is April 20, 7pm @ SLCC Institute building. The Choir one usually has cake or doughnuts after. So there's an incentive, other than my singing, to come.

I'm a member of some violist group on facebook. Today I was browsing through some pictures and got a crack out of these. This one is SO true in so many ways

If I were to ever get a tattoo(which would never happen) I'd get this one. Minus the stupid treble clef. Is this one on their leg? I can't tell wich body part this is. Quite the dedicated musician I'd say.

We didn't have a chance to have our New England boiled dinner last week for St. Patricks day, so we bumped it up to today! Also the tradition egg decorating. Even though we never really eat boiled eggs, we still dye eggs. They're cheap right? And my dad usually has egg salad sandwiches for work the next day. Not too many go to waste.

I came home last night from Toni & Ben's house to find a surprise on my pillow. I had asked my mom earlier to get some fabulous lotion tissues so my nose won't be red and raw for church. I had just finished up my third box of tissues and was about to resort to TP.(Did I mention the sore throat thing from this week turned into a sinus infection-thingy?) But she surprised me with this new amazing Puffs + Lotion + Vicks tissues. Incredible stuff! (no product placement here!) It's like inhaling the vicks scent when you blow your nose, and leaves a medicated/tingly/feel-good feeling in your nose, sinuses & lungs. It says "non-medicated" on the package, but I love them anyway. If you get sick, buy these! your nose will thank you.Thought I would mention that we all need to remember(even though you'll here it in church today) the real meaning if Easter besides chocolate candy, peep marshmallows and dyed eggs. How the resurrection of Christ is what we celebrate. Because He died for us and lived again, we can too. But more importantly the Atonement that took place before hand that was a selfless act on every single person's behalf that we can all be forgiven of our many sins. That he went through every sorrow, bad day, hurt knee, stubbed toe, depression, heartache, troubled time that we did, and knows EXACTLY how we feel. He is one that can give comfort and help us through anything. Through him ALL mankind may be saved.
