Broadway Words of Wisdom

Many of you may know, or not, but I like to listen to the Broadway channel on my satellite radio. The other morning, I shared with my sisters three words of wisdom that came from songs I had heard... They were pretty funny so I thought I would share them with you!

"It's a beautiful day for saying it's a beautiful day"- (Can't remember)
"Don't be stupid, be a smarty, come and join the Nazi party" -The Producers
"When life throws you garbage, you can use it to climb." - The Wedding Singer

Don't you just love the wisdom!??

Hello Hello...

I few house keeping things....
First I took the music off. As much as I LOVE 80's music- it just got annoying. So I hope you don't mind.
Second- thanks everyone for your comments! I am really slow at reading them- but when I do, they brighten my day.

OK- life....
It is has been crazy. Between school, work, YWs and trying to keep the house clean, I just haven't had time to do anything other than the basics. Can I just tell you all how wonderful my husband is. Because of him and his willingness to help and support me, I had a companion at the temple on Friday and I, now, understand the wonders of the "magic" underwear drawer. LOL. It seems to re-fill it's self. (if you don't get the joke, call me!) I love Mike!

One other thing- I have been thinking a lot about my womanhood roles and working and teaching these principles with the YW has helped, but I wanted to share with you a little poem that I found. Please share your thoughts about the poem. I just love it. I think I will frame it for Olivia one day. I shared it in YW's today as part of my lesson.

"You never know what a girl is worth,
You'll have to wait and see;
but every woman is a noble place,
A girl once used to be."

Thanks in advance for sharing your thoughts. I think you are all "girls" and you can change today to be the person you want to be!
TTFN-

Juli's Creations

So, in my spare time, when I should be updating my blog- I have been sewing and being crafty.

I have sewn some skirts for Olivia. She hates pants, so this is our only option. She really likes the tan/pink one, but hates the read one! What a poop.
She does love the nightgown I made for her during the Holidays. I spent almost an entire day at my sister, Jamie's house. She helped me through the entire process. I had never made anything with sleeves before! What a fun time and I learned a great skill.



Another thing is kind of scrap booking- but pictures, not pages for a book!
I bought this picture frame at a thrift store about a month ago, not sure what to use it for. I decided to make it into a wall hanging for my mom.
I painted the frame black, and ordered some vinyl lettering (Thanks Erin for Missy's number- Thanks Missy for such a quick turn-around!)- a quote that my mom has had on her fridge for a year- saying that she would love it on her wall. I got some help from Ruth P- (I love you Ruth) and scrapbook papered the background. It turned out awesome! What do you think?

Before

After (the pic isn't the greatest. The quote says: Families- make your memories, determine your future, love you no matter who you are")

As 2008 ends, 2009 Begins

Hello everyone,
Welcome to 2009. I am happy that you survived the '08 Holiday season. Things were fun here at the Weber home. Mike and I snuck out to the movies, twice! We saw Australia and Yes Man, both were great!
Christmas was fun and pretty normal. I will put together a slide show in the next few days or so. Big Christmas news- Jere and Alisa are expecting baby number 2! That makes 3 new babies for this year. My niece Kerry is due any day, that will make 4 for Kolton and Kerry. I have another nephew- Caleb and his wife, Brittany are expecting in the spring- 2009 will be full of new life!
New Year's was great. We joined Jere and Alisa at a ward party. Bob and Dani came too! It was fun, except I fell on my knees playing broom hockey and now I have a really cool bruise. I hope you all enjoyed the holidays with the ones you love!

Things I am looking forward to in 2009-
1. More Great SV Lady Bobcat basketball (and hopefully another state title) Go Amy!
2. A Master's degree
3. another Young Women's Camp
4. The movie New Moon
5. Camping
6. Mike's annual trip to Phoenix or maybe a fishing trip with his dad
7. Family vacation???


TTFN (Ta Ta for now!)

I am not dead- just busy

Hello, Hello!
I have missed you all. I have been so busy so I apologize for not posting. So let me re-cap the last few months.
First- Halloween was tons of fun. Mike and I went to an adult murder mystery party, thrown by the Schow's- tons of fun. Trick-or-treating was good. Livy was a witch and Will, The Hulk.
I started a really hard class, business financing! Wow- it was a killer but I survived and even passed with a B+. Go me!!!
I took a 5 day vacation with my sisters, Jennette and Janell and my cousins, Becca and Kirstin to Gatlinburg Tennessee! It was fun. Lots of shopping. We went to two dinner shows, Dolly Parton's Dixie Stampede, and to a Murder Mystery dinner show (the theme was American Idle Christmas Special). I was chosen as a contestant. I came in 2nd. You'll have to call me to find out how.
Thanksgiving was great! Same old same old.
In Young Women- we just had our Young Women in Excellence program and it was amazing! The girls were fantastic! I love them so much and so does our Heavenly Fathers. Thanks to Erin, Ruth, Chelese and Barb for all their hard work and commitment to our lovely young ladies.
That's all for now....
no wait! I forgot to tell you about the movie Twilight! It was great. Was it as good as the book- no way! but enjoyable still the same.
TTFN
