SODA!!!!

Yesterday was payday which means grocery day, I took Trav with me after he got home from work and we went to Wal-Mart. We had everything we needed and were headed to the check out stands when of course there was a huge display of 24 pack sodas for only $5. Trav was so excited that he got 2 boxes! This is what our fridge looked like when we put them all in!!!



Yup it took up our whole middle shelf!


Well later that night we were just watching some tv, you know ghost whisperer and then medium when some friends of ours called and said they had just rented a movie and wanted to know if they could come over and watch it with us. We said of course and they came over. Well let me just tell you now, if anyone ever says hey want to watch a movie called Crazy on the Outside? TELL THEM NO!!!! we watched it and i seriously was bored out of my mind!!! it just wasn't very good i thought and i would never suggest it to anyone. some people may like it, i DID NOT!! so just a warning to you all.




Also since spring is finally coming and its actually starting to feel like it I've been looking for swim suits for this summer since me and Travis will be going to Lake Powell the end of July i wanna find a cute new suit. well I've been looking on Lands End and i found one i LOVE!! i dunno why its just plain and simple but i want it!! only thing, is that its $89.99 and you know boys, they think anything that cost that much and is some form of clothing is a waste of money. So we will see if i cant win my case, :) here it is!!

Late....

So normally i am NEVER late on my period, i always know what day its going to come and its always on time, well the only 2 times i have ever been late that i recall, is 10 days when i was super sick and had to have surgery, i started the day after i had surgery, yeah it was awesome. :S and then last month i was only 2 days late, but now it is day 4 of me being late, and all 3 pregnancy tests that i have taken tell me that i am not pregnant. Well then what the heck is going on? It is so not cool to just wait and wonder what is going on with your body.... and i don't like it! at all. So i have decided that if i don't start by the end of this week i am going to go get a blood test to see if I'm pregnant or to find out whats going on or whatever. i really hate needles so i sure hope something happens soon. haha

On a happier note i still love our car!!! couldn't be more happy, and i am seriously starving for some Honey Nut Cheerios!!! yum! And Travis and I are having our 1 year anniversary pictures taken by a good friend of mine this Thursday and i cant wait! its been a year since we have gotten some good pictures of us! so I'm excited! Also to report on my yoga goal..... um... i haven't quite made it to the gym yet so i have been doing yoga on my Wii fit plus.... and seriously I'm horrible so i think its a good thing I'm starting out at home hahah!

A little sad..... :(

This morning i was watching Glee on hulu, because i had missed it this week, and watching Rachael in ballet class with the toe shoes made me think, i haven't even put mine on since big show last year. So after i watched the whole episode i got my dance bag out of the closet, opened it, tried on every dance shoe i had and danced around in them a little, and then got out the toe shoes! I never thought i would think this, but oh how i missed them!! (crazy i know) Of course as soon as i put them on and stood up on point i got the charlie horse and the sharp pain that comes with the beautiful shoes! I did a few things on them and realized, i don't have the muscle, the flexibility the pain tolerance i used to have a year ago. After being sick for a whole month disintegrating, then having surgery where i just sat around even more, to having a miscarriage that made me depressed and just eat and lay around my dancer body was GONE!! Since i no longer dance, and i find just working out at the gym boring i haven't done anything to change that. And it made me very sad. How in one year could i have fallen so far down. After 8 years i know all the steps, the names the way to do them but i don't have the muscle or flexibilities i once worked so hard for. So i have decided today, that I, Oriana Taylor will go to the orem rec center every morning to do yoga, and pillates and then every Tuesday and Thursday nights go to zumba where i can get some of my love for dance out into the open! no more of this nonsense i will not have it!!! This is just my frustration right now and i felt like sharing it, because for some reason that always makes it feel better and now that Ive told everyone I'm going to do this maybe they can keep me to my word and make sure i actually DO IT!!! I will get a hot bod and tight muscles and be super flexible by the end of this summer!!!! Because i can do it!!!!! but i would love any company!! if anyone would like to join me, PLEASE DO!!! its always so much more fun with friends!!!



This is leah and me as Esmerelda and Jasmine for our 2007 pas de deux in big show :) we liked to play around and take fun pictures!













The pic at the top is Caden, Leah, and me! :)

The search is OVER!!! :)

I cannot express to you how thrilled i am that the car hunting is finally OVER!!! We have found our car and it is OURS!!! :) Yay!! Trav found it in Salt Lake and had them drive it to the Honda dealer down by our house in Orem so that i could come look at it and so we could test drive it. Our new car is a 2001 White Nissan X-Terra with 65,000 miles on it and the starting price was $9k. We test drove it and everything was great, except a small rattle on the left side of the car when you go over bumps so we had them put in our contract that they would either fix or replace what ever the noise is so that it is perfect!! It is SO SO VERY nice to have our OWN car and not borrow family's cars and such. I love it!! Oh and it has 4wheel drive which i also LOVE, especially since i hate driving in the snow anyways the 4wheel drive makes me feel a whole lot better! :)

Also our anniversary last weekend was AMAZING, and very much needed! The Swiss Family Robinson room that we stayed in was so COOL!!! The bed high up in the trees was so much fun, that i wish i had it in our home, and the tub, oh the tub, my other true love, the jetta tub was huge, and we had so much hot water it was heaven!! The shower was a waterfall that came into the tub which was actually pretty dang sweet as well! That night he ordered pizza to our room cuz we didn't really feel like going out, sadly i was sick with a horrible beastly cold. :S but the pizza was great!! In the morning they brought us breakfast which was granola and yogurt with some raspberries on it, a huge cinnamon roll, a large cheese and ham croissant and two juices of our choice! it was yummy :) Check out was at noon but we were out of there by about 10:30. After we had checked out and everything we went to the Hogal Zoo!!! I love the zoo it is so much fun and i love to look at all the animals! The weather was also very nice, which was great cuz i was worried it would be cold! My favorite part at the zoo was the little monkeys and the tigers, and the Marry-go-round that was playing tikki room ( i wanted to start dancing too it but trav wouldn't have it ;) ) And Travis' favorite part was the GORILLA!!! haha he was huge! All in all with being sick it was a very well needed and much loved get away! I wish we could do it more often! :) here are some pictures from that day!

mmmm our yummy breakfast We brought the top part of our wedding cake so we could eat it up there, when we unwrapped it it was all distorted looking hahah like this! We ate it anyways and it was pretty good, The tub of my dreams, and the shower of travis' dreams ha
