I love 3AM wake up calls

We didn't have too exciting of weekend...went shopping Friday relaxed Saturday and went to Joe and Andria's for the Jazz game! It is always fun to hang with them. Reddek loves their girls. Well we got home about 10:00 pm put Red to bed and we went to bed about 11:30...I had to be up by 6:00 on Sunday to take the youth to the Sacred Word at temple square. Well about 3:00 AM Jason has to wake me up to tell me Reddek is crying (Jason is still slow with his ankle so he couldn't get him) I knew something was wrong because Reddek NevEr wakes up in the night. I got to his room to hear him crying and coughing and saying mom it hurts, hurts mom. He has croup! So we brought him into our bed so he could lay by us. At about 4:00 Jason told me to go sleep on the couch so I could get some sleep...Reddek was still awake would get comfy and start coughing. POOR KID! I totally slept in and didn't make it to the church to take the girls up! I felt bad but I guess they ended up having enough cars to it them all! I got ready for church and Reddek was playing with Jas. As I was walking out Reddek stopped me
"mom I go to church!"
I tried to explain to him that he was sick and couldn't go or all the other kids would get sick!
"no mom I go to class a sing and a treats."
"no Red you stay here with daddy and he will sing songs with you"
"nope I a coming!."
I had to shut the door on him and felt so bad! This kid LOVES church especially his class.

***HOORAY***

Well now it is time to PaRtY!!! Charle found my ring:) tonight the guys had a game so the girls came over for dinner and American Idol and just before Charle left she said should we go see if I can find it and she did!!! She pulled up the seat cushion (i didn't even know you could) said she thought she felt something...so i went over to her side she lifted the seat and I grabbed the ring. It only took us like 5 mins. Thanks so much CHARLE!!! I really feel so much better. I knew it was just a ring and could be replaced, but I just wanted MY ring back. SO that is the good news at our house. Oh did I mention Jason hurt his ankle at his game? He did and it looks pretty bad and he says it kills! Sorry honey:(
excuse the pictures they are from my phone!
Sorry for the ugly feet pictures!!! I am one that hates feet, but had to post them.

Sadie's

Well this weekend was so fun! Our stake had a Sadie Hawkins dance for couples. I asked this cute guy from my ward Jason McCaul (i am sure most of you know him since he is so cool)...Shannon and I went to the guy's office late one night to ask. This is the result.
"So DEW you want to go to Sadie's with me?" (this hot guy I asked has a weekness and it is his love for Mountain Dew.)
We met up for dinner with Joe and Andria and had a fun time! We always laugh so much when we are with them:) Our dinner was pretty much GROSS! I liked mine, but you can't really screw up fired shrimp. Lets just say Andria and I won't be incharge of reservations anymore. Later we hooked up with two more cool couples to head over to the dance.Shannon and Parris, Joe and Andria, Katie (me) and Jason (the hot guy) Kelly and Charle...yes we are so cool we all dressed alike!!! (well most of us)

We had so much fun at this dance! Yes we were a little crazy and dorky, but that is what makes it fun! We all have such great moves it was hard to share the dance floor! LOL I did have one bad experience with this hot guy I asked out...he dropped me!!! Yes we were doing some totally awesome moves and ended up on the floor. (Maybe this was his way to make a move on me, but it totally didn't work...I don't kiss on the first date) Well you know the cool people don't stay for the whole dance so we left there after we were all about to pass out!!! It was a work out :) Went to Parris and Shannon's to play Rock Band!!! I LOVE THAT GAME; we are pretty much a great band if anyone needs any entertainment.
Then me and this hot guy went home and had no kid!!! HOORAY...my parents took Red for the weekend...so you know we partied all weekend long.
THANKS EVERYONE FOR THE GREAT NIGHT!!! And Thanks Jason I was worried you weren't going to be a good sport, but you were!

YES it is still LOST!

Jason and I were talking and he reminded me how hard it was for him to get me this ring...no he wasn't being mean, he is just sad it is lost also! We were young college kids so for him to be able to buy me a ring he lived in his dad's Camper Trailer for about 4 months!(so he didn't have to pay rent or utilities) His mom moved when he was 18 the summer after we graduated. He didn't want to move (he had lived there his whole life) SO his nice brother Parris and Shannon let him move in with them (yes right after they got married...poor couple) He got use to real life pretty quick! So he was broke and wanted to save up to buy me a nice ring!!! Well we went looking...of course I was so excited...him probably stressed out. We looked at some and I found styles I liked and ONE style that I LOVED!!! Well lots of couples look for rings so I knew we were no where close to buy one! During our Snow College days we both worked at this little restaurant in Manti called Don’s Cafe! For those that have worked in a food place know CLEAN UP is the WOrsT part of the job. We each knew this so we would go help each other clean up if we weren't working. Then we would get off earlier and more time to HANG OUT!!! Well one night I was cleaning up and waiting for Jason to come help me...well he didn't show up! So I was MAD! We didn't have cell phones...I think I did but he for sure didn't. Finally at the end of the night he showed up and said he had gone up to visit his mom. I was mad, but of course we still hung out. A few weeks later we were up north again so of course I drag him to look at rings AGAIN! He totally doesn't want to so the immature me thinks what you don't want to marry me? So he was pleasing me and we went in. Well he was so nervous because he had bought me a ring that night he wasn't helping me clean up and the SAME LADY WAS WORKING!!! I guess behind my back he said SHHH to her and she was a good sport and didn't say anything. So that is the story of the ring...and he kept it hid for quite a while!
He was so sick of living in the camper trailer so we had found this perfect little house for him in Manti and he finally got a call that he could move in! It was my birthday so he didn't want to move that day, but I insisted. Well we moved all day and all night with my sister and her husband. Finally he brought me home about midnight! He walked me up to the door and got down on his knee and opened up the ring and asked me to MARRY HIM!!! I am crying just remembering the night. He was sad we spent all day moving so he didn't get to do a cute way...but I think this simple way couldn't have been BETTER! I of course crying, but it was so late he had to leave and I had to go in. SO I wake up my little brothers to tell them and one looks at the ring and it is so pretty he said "Katie that is one of those stupid fake Wal-Mart rings!" and went back to bed. I woke my parents up and they were excited...Jason had done the proper thing and asked my dad if he could ask! Well I guess my dad actually asked Jason when he was going to ask me because he wanted to remodel but had to wait until I moved out! So that is the long story about the ring...sorry you don't have to read it I just wanted to write it down and this is kind of my journal for the moment!

Thanks everyone for the great time. Joe and Andria keep having the awesome parties. Love you guys!!!

quick update...

So I still haven't found it! I checked my car again...haven't tried the nylon vacuum thing. (but I will thanks) I called UVU and of course nothing. I left messages with my number and info at all the lost and found departments. I also called my insurance company and it is covered in my home owners insurance. They give you up to $2500.00 for it being lost. Jason wants to double check before we start that whole process. But hey at least that is better than nothing. I know my ring cost more than that, but I will take what I can get at this point. Thanks for all your comments :)

Oh My HECK!!!!

Ok so I am a dork! I already know this...but what can I do? On Friday night Jason came with Red and picked me up from work to go watch my niece dance at State Drill. (she did awesome by the way) Reddek was being mad and was tired so I leaned back to hold his hand. When I am cold my fingers shrink and my ring fell off in his hand. He loved holding it so I am a softy and let him hold it. We get to UVU take Reddek out not thinking about the ring...go watch the competition and get back in the car. I remembered about the ring, but figured it was in my car. I said a little prayer looked under and around the car and put red in and we left. Well Saturday I worked and I decided to clean my car while waiting for Jason to see if I could find it. NO IT IS GONE!!! I emptied everything out looked as good as I could and I have not found it. It makes me sick to think about this. I LOVE my ring...of course everyone does. I don't know what to do...its not like I can just go buy a new one! I am still just hoping it will turn up somehow...who knows! I just had to post about it because I am so sick but can't do anything about it.

10 pet peeves

I was tagged to write my 10 pet peeves...only 10? j/k

1. People not taking the extra few seconds to put the toilet paper on the roll! It only takes a second come on people.
2. Dirty dishes in the sink. The dish washer is right there...rinse them and put it in the dishwasher. I have tried and tried to make Jason change his ways and I have no luck.
3.How high maintenance home owners are...a total different world than selling to contractos.
4. The toilet seat up! Drives me crazy!!! PUT IT DOWN.
5. Snotty workers that are suppose to be customer service people...hello find a new job if you don't like helping people.
6. A messy car, but with a two year old my car is never clean anymore! It drives me crazy everyday!
7. Dog poop on my front yard! I don't have a dog so I don't have to clean up so please clean up after your dog!!!
8. an unmade bed.
9. HAIR! I hate hair and I hate it if it is on my clothes on the floor or anywhere! Problem...my husband cuts his and Reddek's hair...he isn't the best at cleaning it up, therefore I have the pleasure of cleaning up hair.
10. CATS need I say more?

I tagg Charle, Shannon, Andria, Amber, and Tamber.
