A New LOVE...

Okay, it's true I have fallen in LOVE!!! Sewing is so much fun! I have always loved it, but never really tried a sewing machine.  I must say all my projects have become so much easier! I started this quilt a couple months ago by hand, so now I'll finish it in a day!!! After that...I think I'll try a dress....we'll see :)

My first PURSE!!!!!!!!! At Paul Mitchell I got made fun of for carrying around my backpack everywhere, so I made myself a lovely purse!

We are also, TODAY starting a loosing weight competition with some Clark guys and family. (if anyone wants to join give me a call)! It's two months and winner takes 30 from each person. I'm going to put our stats on here just as a little reminder! I won't put the "before" pictures because they are HORRIBLE!!!!

I have NEVER been as out of shape as I am now! Brent and I are feeling old....hahaha  Anyways, I just want to feel in shape again, and not breath so hard after just going up and down the stairs!!! hahaha 

We have started having Family Home Evening with our CLARK pest control guys. Last Monday they came over and we shared all our favorite scriptures and then we cooked up some smores on the grill Brent got me for Mother's Day!!! It was really fun and nice to hear the boys tell us about their favorite scriptures, they're an amazing group of boys. I just need to find some wives for them, so I can have some friends!!!

Gridley House

My sister-in-law Jessica had a Mary Kay party and it was SO FUN!!! We played some games and cleaned our faces! Mary Kay has come a long way! If anyone needs some Mary Kay Jessica can get it for you! 

Here's a picture from Brent's MCDOWELL Golf trip, he was to put those on here, so this is a little snap shot of things to come.

Brent went to one of his companions wedding 

This is my beautiful pregnant friend JEREE!!! She came to our place on her way to Rexburg to visit her family! Man, I miss her! We met up with Kaysi and Nick and some of their buddies. It was a fun night and delicious!

This is sister Cortney Scott and she's preggo too!!! This was a LONG time ago, I needed a model for a competition I was in, and she came all the way from Provo for me! OH and I graduated from Paul Mitchell!!! Thank goodness! If you want to see some pictures my FABULOUS friend Kaysi Fox made me a video on youtube- its called, "Alexa's graduation." I cried. It fun to have your school experience on the internet! Anyways, We love everybody! 

A Little Catching Up!

I went down to my cousin's State track meet in LA and boy was it cold!

These are some windmills we saw on the way there, the hill were FILLED with them. I took these pictures out of the car window, so there not that great :)

This is my cousin Sarah, I forgot to turn them so this is as good as it gets. 

This is the girl that came in second. 

Sarah was in the HEP- its eight different events and really hard on your body. They do the 800m 200m 100m hurdles, Long jump, High jump, Javelin, Shot put, and I can't remember the last thing. 

SHE GOT NUMBER 1 IN THE STATE!!!! She really is amazing! She beat all the black girls!

This is our new Guitar!!! It's an ovation- and you can plug it in which is why we got it because we always need one for when we play and sing out there. 

I'm reading this book. AMAZING!!! It really helps you to be more creative. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants a little mind opening, and refresh on their creativity. 

Life in California is, I hate to say it... but PERFECT!!! It seriously is home. The last couple days have been a little cloudy, but when the sun shines-it shines. We are loving our apartment, it's the first time we have lived on our own. It's our apartment...well for the next 4 months it is. 

Chelsea's Prom

.  This is my beautiful sister Chelsea Warren! I came over and we did her hair and make-up! She has grown up so much, and GRADUATES from High School this June- it's a little surreal.
