Tickets and Suspended Liscenses!!

So we have this neighborhood right near where I work where the police decide it's fun to patrol. My day warned me about it since he has been there before, so I make sure I go max 30 (speed limit is 25) although the rest of the street before and after is 55 mph. What?! There are also like a million stop signs in the neighborhood (okay, so like 4 or 5, but it feels like a million).

Well, as it goes, my insurance ran out in December and I have been just too broke to get more. Oops. I had a letter saying my license has been suspended since March, so I have tried to be super careful. My friend was texting me Monday about F.H.E. and I was texting him back. I guess I wasn't paying attention, because I got pulled over for running a stop sign. I thought I was in HUGE trouble because my license was supposedly suspended. But I only got a ticket for running the stop sign and having no proof of insurance. I also got a fix it ticket because I still have a Utah license although I have been living in California for over 9 months. I was bawling, but truly grateful I wasn't pulled into the police station. OOOOOPPPPPPSSSSSSS!!!!

My families dream houses!!

So on the way to work I get to pass all these really NICE houses in the country!! Some are old fashioned/country style, some are English tutor style, and some are just HUGE!! I started to take pictures for people in my family, because I think every member in my family has there house on one of these 2 streets I drive on. Here are just a few for your viewing pleasure.

Adventures in Hair Dying!!

Okay, so this one has to be in bright orange because that is what color my hair turned. Yep, I dyed my hair orange. Believe you me, it wasn't on purpose!! I decided I was tired of having a line where my roots were going in and the bright blonde highlights showed. So my sister gave me the great idea of buying a non-permanent hair dye and dye it all one color. I bought one that was close to my original color, but because my hair was soo bright blonde it turned it orange. Sad to say that I didn't take any pictures that night although I should have. I took some today, but it doesn't look the same. That and the dye is washing out so my hair looks more pink now!! I am seeing how many different colors my hair can be in one month!!

HAPPY EASTER!!

I want to write in pink for this holiday, but I don't know if it will work. We'll see. Sorry it has been about a month since I posted, but I am working from 8 to 5 everyday now and then I am gone from about 7 to 10 every night doing something!! I keep thinking my life will get less busy, but it keeps getting busier!! UGH!! Easter was a blast though. My brother, Chad, wife, Beth, and 2 kids, Kayden and Boston, came up from Burbank to spend the holiday with us. I have decided that having kids around for holidays is much more fun than just adults!! They get soo excited about about everything!!! I had to have a new outfit for Easter, so I decided to take my 2 $20 gift certificates to the GAP and buy a dress, but the cheapest I could find was a $60 dress. So I got a pink shirt instead and wore my sister's cute white skirt. We did all the traditions of dying eggs, putting curlers in our hair, and searching for our eggs outside. My nephews were soo cute and Kayden kept doing his happy dance (for those of you who have seen it)!! It was great!! Then my sister and her husband came over for dinner. We had fun being together as a family!! I love holidays!!!
