Fabulous Fifty

1. I am a WIFE. I love the title!

2. The rice chips that Holden bought for me yesterday, which I am snacking on.

3. I don't live alone anymore, it's much less scary.

4. Everyone who came to my wedding and made me feel special, especially Kristen, who missed out on her husband's big bike race just for me!

5. Holden happily ate my lasagna yesterday, which didn't turn out at all, due to the fact it was the first time I had ever attempted making such a thing.

6. Karrilyn has a BOY, in California! W00t!

7. Holden acts like a little kid when he gets angry, throwing papers and going to his room to pout. Lol.

8. I have a nephew on the way, he will be born in January, and his name is Hector <3

9. The temple dedication is this Sunday and I don't have work!!

10. I am taking the semester off of school, for the very first time in my life. If I didn't I would never ever get to see my husband.

11. I finally found a version of Anchorman for sale online that isn't the "uncut and unrated" one.

12. The rugs on the floor in our living room, they are so soft!

13. Because Holden has been going into work early, I am allowed to go eat lunch with him before I head off to work.

14. My job. Though it is hard and long hours, I love the girls there.

15. The Office, which I have been re-watching with Holden.

16. The desire I have to be a good wife, which makes me want to clean and do laundry.

17. The opportunity that I had to see my family 4 times in the last 2 weeks, thanks to the wedding, and their trip to San Diego.

18. My wisdom teeth extraction is all just a bad memory now, and the pain is gone.

19. The married ward we went to on Sunday, I really liked it, although Holden didn't.

20. Holden and I went to the movie theatre together, for the FIRST TIME ever, and we saw Harry Potter 6.

21. Holden's parents, I love them, and all they do for us.

22. Everyone who travelled to come to my wedding, especially family members from out of state, and our neighbors from New Mexico who came as a SURPRISE to everyone.

23. I am finally getting used to my wearing garments, and I'm happy that I am able to do so.

24. Holden had to wake up at 8 this morning and he let me sleep while he got ready for work. And he was in such a good mood.

25. My sister in law, Beth, because she is wonderful and sends me emails all the time.

26. Chris's wedding slideshow, set to the song Shine On You Crazy Diamond by Pink Floyd.

27. Holden's very small amount of possessions, because if he had any more, they wouldn't fit into our house, thanks to my huge collection of Stuff.

28. Holden going into work early every day this week, so that he can get more money to provide for us.

29. Holden looking for a new job so that he can be an even better provider for us.

30. Looking forward to the future.

36. Holden's stuff is now my stuff too.

37. Frozen yogurt for 1.00 at Dixie Nutrition. Mmmm.

38. Holden's natural talent of public speaking.

39. Brooke Williams, who is so wonderful. She did my hair for the wedding, and she drives me to work every day so I don't die of heat stroke in my convertable without A/C.

40. Genesis and how I am so confused by some things in there, but Holden usually explains them to me.

41. I am almost 21! And although I have to work 24 hours on my birthday, it's ok because even if I can't get it switched I'm sure I will have a good time, and we can celebrate another time.
