Conversation #1

Happened when I was looking at the requirements for a final paper. The paper had to be 3-4 pages single spaced. That darn single spaced, I thought everyone had switched to double spacing?!

Amy: Why do teachers sign such lengthy papers? They have two choices: a really good short paper, or a longer paper full of crap.

Woody: Amy all of your papers are made up

Amy: o ya, you're right

Conversation #2

Happened while watching the Jazz game.

We just saw a African American announcer wearing an interesting color green suit

Amy: Wow that is not an attractive color suit

Woody: ya your right, that is a funny color

Amy: but he can pull it off because he's black.. if that was on a white person he'd look ugly. But this guy looks ok

Woody: ya I guess

*looking at D-will's new basketball shoes, very colorful and bright

Amy: you know what, that's another thing only black people can pull off, colorful basketball shoes. They look good on D-Will but if a white person had them on I'd just laugh

Woody: I think you're racists...

Sick Day

So I had a sick day today I woke up with some cold/flu something. I took niquil last night and was SO disappointed that it did not knock me out and I woke up throughout the night. Then sadly, my Woody left me in the morning to go to school. But when he was done with his classes he came home to be with me!! (Instead of staying at school to do HW) So really I just wanted to post about how much I love him and that his presence makes everything better. He stopped and picked me up some medicine and some drinks with lots of vitamin C so I could get better. It truly is the small little things that matter the most!! He is my sunshine when my skies are grey :)

Anniversary Weekend!!

Woody and I celebrated our One year anniversary this weekend YA! I can hardly believe that it has already been a year, time certainly flies by!!! To celebrate we spend two nights up in SLC and had a blast. My photos are not in the right order due to blogger being silly, so I apologize for that.

On Saturday night we went out to dinner. We had been walking everywhere all weekend long cuz of the lack of parking availability in SLC so Saturday was no different. Unfortunately when we were almost half way there it started to pour on us and we had no Umbrella!! So we ran pack to the hotel and grabbed our car to drive to dinner. HAha we were glad we did because by the time we headed home it was snowing and FREEZING.
Saturday morning we went to the SLC temple. This was the most beautiful temple I have ever seen, I absolutely loved it and I could feel the spirit so strong! Sadly, the rain/snow did not allow us to take a picture in front of the temple.. o well that happens.

We accidentally forgot to bring in our church shoes! So we had to go down into the parking garage to get them. I think we looked pretty good with our tennis on ya??

This is us after the Jazz Game, sadly we lost so we were a little sad but really it was a BLAST and we stinking loved going!
This is us at Carl's Jr. it was right by our hotel so easy to walk to :)

Funny story about the Jazz Game: as we were walking out of the hotel Wood asked me to check to make sure I had the tickets and I said, "Wood, I checked in the car I got them!!" (so i did not check then). So we walk and walk and walk down to the Energy Solutions Arena, and as we are getting ready to go in I start looking in my purse for the tickets and...... NO TICKETS haha. So we walked all the way back to our hotel and Woody found them in the car. After I had checked on them I had taken something out of my purse and they came out with it!! haha so the entire weekend wood would ask if I had something and if I would say yes, he'd say "are you sure??"

So I learned my lesson. It is ALWAYS good to double check!!

We had a blast on our weekend and I loved having a get a way with Woody especially because we have both been super stressed. I am so grateful for Woody for his patience and his love. He is the best husband I could have ever asked for and he is SO GOOD to me, I can't get enough of him :)

Funny Kids

On Tuesday I went on a field trip with my students to BYU. It was fun but pretty chaotic and I was SO nervous that I was going to lose one of the kids in my groups because they did not like to stay by me and also other groups kept cutting us off! MEAN
But my kids were pretty funny, I'll tell you some things:

They asked me these questions numerous times:
Is this your school?
You go here?
Have you ever been in this building/room?
Do you know him/her?
When I kept saying no that I did not know people they would say: Do you know ANYBODY here? Haha I guess I am a loser!

While in the planetarium, the kids were pretty funny about the star shapes. Whenever the presenter pointed out a shape in the stars they kids would say "oh, I knew that I knew that's where it was" haha of course they knew! Right?

On the bus ride I was used in rock, paper, scissors. Like instead of using rock, paper or scissors they said Mrs. Palmer. And good news I won!! Because I had super powers :)


This did not happen on the field trip or even in my class but my friend Jen in her class had a little girl tell her that she knew how to get a baby. So Jen said really? and the little girl said ya, you get a stick and pee on it and if it is a + then you'll have a baby but if it's a - then it didn't work and you have to get a new one.

haha kids are super funny :)

OO THat's what I wanted him to do!! And yet he wouldn't even kiss me behind the hat, so our faces are WAY too far about....

My family came to Utah for Halloween and it was tons of fun to have them here!! On Saturday I went shopping for material for Stockings for Christmas YA!! Then we went trick or treating at the mall, but were too late and there was no candy left so we went home and the babies went trick or treating. On Sunday we made cookies and candy apples DELICIOUS and hung out. I am so grateful for my family and how cool we are that all of us dressed up. They are the best!! And I love HAlloween!!
