Johnny never posts

This week I have been filling my idle time at work thinking about Breaking Dawn. When I have free time, I peruse the internet for theories, and when I walk home from work, I call Jill and Hannah (my sisters) and discuss those theories. Some of the more thought-out ones:

• Jacob will imprint on a vampire (one person went so far as to guess it was Rosalie)
  
• The wedding is early on because Edward is going to die (NO!)
  
• Jacob's dad, Billy, will die because then Bella will have to go to the funeral and then she and Jacob can meet up again (haha, very thought-out)
  
• Either Jacob or Billy will sacrifice themselves for Bella (based on the book cover...a queen can sacrifice her pawn in a game of chess)

Either way, I just want it to end happily. The last time I read a book with a sad ending, I cried for half an hour, while Johnny tried to comforted me.

An update on Johnny: As I have become more engrossed in Breaking Dawn's release, Johnny's obsession with cage fighting has also grown. He now watches it on a daily basis. On a side note, he works harder than anyone I know, so I am learning to accept this small indulgence.

Last, but not least, a recipe for Caitlin.
A few years ago, my mom made a weight watcher's recipe for pumpkin muffins. My little sisters and I loved it, and one night my sophomore year in college, my roommate Alison and I decided to try adding chocolate chips to it. The result was heavenly!

1 box yellow cake mix
1 can pumpkin (15oz)
2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips (I think...just add until it looks like enough)

Mix first two ingredients together until batter is smooth. Add chocolate chips. Grease muffin tins. Scoop muffin batter into tins (batter will be thick). Bake for around 25 minutes on 350 or until toothpick comes out clean.

Updated

You may think that the title of this post refers to the layout of our blog, and while it does in part, it mostly refers to my boss at work. I hear her say the word "updated" on a daily basis, and instead of saying the word like any normal person with the stress on the first syllable(UPdated), she says it with a stress on the second syllable (upDATEd). This has been driving me crazy for weeks now, and much to my horror, I have now accidentally said upDATEd twice. I swear it's like a disease. I can only hope that after I quit working there (only three weeks left!) I will go back to my normal UPdated self.

Johnny has a new hobby. For the past two weeks, I have been minding my own business, when I am suddenly interrupted by Johnny and his new favorite past-time: watching cage fighting. Here are some of the things I have heard him say as of late: "It really is fun to watch, though. I mean, watching it makes you kind of queasy, but it's amazing how they move."; "Hey Jo, look at how his legs are wrapped around that guy's head."; or my favorite: "Hey, I've seen this one already." I don't know know what has possessed him with this new fascination, but it must stop.

We went on a hike recently with Will and Jake. The hike was completely uphill. After about fifteen minutes, our legs and lungs adjusted, and we had a really fun time.

out with the old, in with the new

We are currently under construction. The time has come, yet again, to change the format of the blog. Maybe this time we will settle on something that doesn't induce our gag reflex after a few months. Sit tight!

La Vaca Mejor... Vacacion!

I am slow with my words and decided to post about our vacation adventures to Alabama and Pensacola Beach, Florida in photos. So without further ado...

Our Vacation in Pictures!
