St. George roadtrip

I joined Ron, Cal, and the kids on a roadtrip to St. George. Ron plays in The Nashville Tribute Band, and they had a show down in St. George at the outdoor theatre. We stayed with Jeanine, Cal's best friend from way back when. It was a really good weekend, and nice to take an extra day off work!

Jordan, Krista, and I went to WalMart the night before to get snacks for our roadtrip. Jordan went with Krista's shorts on!


He's very comfortable with himself. We got many awkward glances/stares.

At Tuacahn before the show started. Jo's such a stud.

My cute cousins!

The performers. Ron was in the band, and Krista and Rachel sang.

AD's Not a Teenager!!

March 15th was AD's 20th birthday. No longer a teenager. For a while there she was trying to think of the last horrible thing that she could do as a teenager! Since her birthday was on a Sunday... Bre, Michelle and Sarah Pitts, and I took her out to PF Chang's on Saturday. Then Sunday we had dinner at Cal's for her birthday. Lasagna was what she asked for, and that's what she got!

The 5 of us demolishing the Great Wall of Chocolate at PF Chang's. That thing really didn't last long!!

Erika, Bre, Gpa, and Rach posing with the birthday girl.

Yes, AD, you really are special!

E-money, Kicka, and Adds

Like father, like daughter.

AD wanted Disney movies...

...and games.

This present was the best!

Blowing out the cake that I labored for many hours to make. Okay, not really.

And all that Jazz

I went to the Jazz game last month with my friends, Becky and Clint. They played the Houston Rockets. For some reason I have some sort of hatred towards the Jazz. I think it's because of an old roommate and her boyfriend that were really all about the Jazz and pretty stupid when it came to basketball, and it drove me nuts. So deep down, I really wanted the Rockets to win... especially since they used to be my hometown team. But for the sake of my life, I did not openly cheer for them. And I didn't want to be de-friended by Clint, who is an avid Jazz fan. The Rockets put up a fight, and got the lead towards the end, but couldn't hang on. I still had a really fun time. Basketball and friends, some of the best things in life!!

I've been in Utah for 7 years now, and this is the first time I've ever ridden Trax.

Me, Becky, and Clint at the game.

The end. I may be smiling, but I wasn't really happy about the score.

Week with Mama

Mom came to visit in the beginning of March. Grandpa had to have cataract surgery so she came to help him out. We benefited from the visit, of course! It was a blast and we had a lot of fun!

Adrianne gets really excited about donuts, and then hordes them.

The girls of our family (the ones in Utah, at least).

Played some Pit. AD is always happy when she wins!

Dinner at Cal's. My roommate, Erika, joined our family that weekend.
Everybody helping out cooking (except me, apparently).

Jo and AD are absolutely crazy together!

I think they just got told about Santa Clause.

By far two of my favorites!

Mom's got an evil streak in her, so watch out!

We played LOTS of Apples to Apples.

Apparently the cards you win are supposed to describe you. These are AD's cards... we thought they were pretty hilarious!!

It was a really fun week! And the best part is that Mom's going to be back really soon!! We're going to help Cathy and Gary move all their stuff into their new place here in Salt Lake. Another fun girl week!

Past Due

I know that you guys have been dying without The Office quotes for over a month now. I'm sorry! I can't believe how much of a slacker I've been. I'm finally all moved into the new apartment. Things should be getting less hectic now. Now, I just need to remember to put my pictures on my computer so that I can possibly blog about things. It's late, I should've been in bed hours ago. (No chastisement needed, Mommy! I know the error of my ways.)



The Office Calendar:
Mar. 2nd: "I am taking responsibility. It is up to me to get rid of the curse that hit Meredith with my car. I'm not superstitious. But I am a little stitious." -Michael
Mar. 3rd: "They say if you're nervous around someone you should picture them naked. I do not recommend this strategy. Try picturing them with more clothes on. Or a funny coat." -Pam
Mar. 4th: "We had a foreign exchange student live with us when I was young. And we called him my brother and I thought that's what he was. Then he went home to what is now formerly Yugoslavia, taking all my blue jeans with him. I had to spend the entire winter in shorts. That is what Ryan is like. A fake brother who steals your jeans." -Michael
Mar. 5th: "Trip Advisor is the life-blood of the agritourism industry. A couple of bad reviews there, you might as well close up shop. That's what took down the Stalk Inn, one of the cutest little asparagus farms you'll ever see." -Dwight
Mar. 6th: "I just have a small problem" -Michael "I told you not to call about small problems." -Ryan "Yeah, well, when I call about big problems, you don't like that either, so make up your mind, kiddo!" -Michael
Mar. 7th/8th: "I tried to live the dream. I tried to have a job, a girlfriend, another job . . . and I failed. But the good thing about the American dream is that you can just go to sleep and try it all again the next night." -Michael
Mar. 9th: "Michael just rented The Devil Wears Prada . . . He has his Netflix sent here to the office and he watches them in pieces, when things are "slow." . . . He's a big Meryl Streep fan so I shouldn't be surprised that he's identified with her character." -Pam
Mar. 10th: "Okay, this is Dwight's Second Life. He's on it all the time. So much so, that his little guy here has created his own little world. It's called "Second Second Life" for those people how want to be removed even further from reality." -Jim
Mar. 11th: "That's how it goes sometimes . . . You lose everything, and everything falls apart, and eventually you die and no one remembers you." -Dwight
Mar. 12th: "Maybe there's some sort of animal that we could make a sacrifice to? Like a giant buffalo, or some sort of monster, like something with the body of a walrus, with the head of a sea lion. Or something with the body of an egret, with the head of a meerkat. Or, just the head of a monkey with the antlers of a reindeer with the body of a porcupine." -Michael
Mar. 13th: "When Michael plays the hypothetical game, I always say yes . . . and I am always busy." -Jim
Mar. 14th/15th: "Okay, the green bar is what you spend every month on stuff you need, like a car and a hour. . . . The red bar is what you spend on non-essentials, like magazines, entertainment, things like that. . . . This scary black bar is what you spend on things that no one ever, ever needs. Like multiple magic sets, professional bass fishing equipment . . ." -Oscar
Mar. 16th: "D0 I need to be liked? Absolutely not. I like to be liked, I enjoy being liked, I have to be liked, but it's not like this compulsive need to be liked. Like my need to be praised." -Michael
Mar. 17th: "Darryl Philbin is the most complicated man that I have ever met. I mean, who says exactly what they're thinking? What kind of game is this?" -Kelly
Mar. 18th: "Business to business the old-fashioned way. No Blackberrys, not websites. I would like to see a website deliver baskets of food to people." -Michael
Mar. 19th: "So, I'll come get you for the table-making demonstration. And as of this morning we are completely wireless here at Schrute Farms. But as soon as I find out where Mose hid all the wires, we'll get the power back on. Alrighty!" -Dwight
Mar. 20th: "You are creative. You are damn creative. Each and every one of you. You are so much more creative than all the other dry, boring morons that you work with." -Michael
Mar. 21st/22nd: Ryan: "It's not part of your job. It's like, maybe you can cook, but that doesn't mean you should start a restaurant." Michael: "Well, actually, I can't cook, and I am starting a restaurant. Mike's Cereal Shack. I'm thinking we'll have as many varieties as you can buy in the store"
Mar. 23rd: "Now that I think about it, Angela and Andy might actually make a good couple. But I couldn't do that to Dwight. Or Angela. Or Andy." -Pam
Mar. 24th: "I know a lot of you are very upset with me for endangering Meredith's life by hitting her with my car. But it may make you feel a little bit better to know that before that happened, Dwight endangered her life by putting a garbage bag over her head with a bat in it. . . . Turns out, Meredith has been exposed to rabies, which is like ten times worse than a little crack in your pelvis. Thanks to me, she went to the hospital and I saved her life." -Michael
Mar. 25th: "Oh, yes, I will work out today. I will work out a way to avoid running for a stupid cause." -Stanley
Mar. 26th: "A bunch of guys in a tent making s'mores. . . . Here's the thing. That's not how you go camping. I think you go camping by yourself in the wilderness. It's not with a group of guys frolicking around in tents." -Michael
Mar. 27th: "You people need to educate yourselves. Myth: Three American every year die from rabies. Fact: Four Americans die every year from rabies. How many of you know someone who has been afflicted or affected by rabies? Show of hands. One, two, three . . . too many to count. It is truly the silent killer. No, it is the foaming, barking killer." -Michael
Mar. 28th/29th: "You know, I just realized, this is Pam's and my first night away together . . . I used to play it over in my head and it was just a little bit different. Maybe a nice hotel. Or a romantic dinner . . . Wine. But wine that wasn't made out of beets. Didn't think Dwight would be involved at all." -Jim
Mar. 30th: "'Cause you know what they say in the BIble about forgiveness? Forgiveness is next to Godliness." -Michael
Mar. 31st: Oscar: "Michael, this is a presentation tool." Michael: "You're a presentation tool if you think I'm going to tell Jan about this."
Apr. 1st: "I kind of know what it's like to be in commercials. My nickname is high school used to be 'Kool-Aid Man.'" -Kevin
Apr. 2nd: "Is there a God? If not, what are all these churches for? And who is Jesus's dad?" -Michael
Apr. 3rd: "Did I ever tell you why I left Scranton? . . . Yeah, I didn't think I did. Well, it was all about Pam. . . . She was with Roy and I just couldn't take it. I mean, I lost it, Dwight. I couldn't sleep. I couldn't concentrate on anything. And weird stuff, like food had no taste. So my solution was to move away. It was awful. And it is something that I would not wish on my worst enemy, and that includes you." -Jim
Apr. 4th/5th: "I am the regional manager of Dunder Mifflin Utica Branch. Turns out it's a pretty easy gig when your boss isn't an idiot and your boyfriend's not in love with somebody else." -Karen
Apr. 6th: Michael: "Dwight will be driving me deep into the Pennsylvania wilderness. Where he will then leave me to either die, or to survive . . . the choice is yours." Jim: "No, the choice is actually yours. Are you sure you want to do this?"
Apr. 7th: "Excuse me. I have an announcement to make. We seem to be missing a box of chocolate turtles with pecans. And, we are not leaving the premises until we obtain them. Hand. Over. The turtles. Now!" -Dwight
Apr. 8th: "This is who I am now, a guy on a train with no answers. I hope that can be enough for you." -Michael

It's coming, I promise...

I'm sorry I've been such a slacker! I swear I'm going to get a post up here soon. I know y'all are waiting for the month's worth of Office quotes. Moving apartments is over now, so I will have a little more free time (maybe!). Don't hate me!

E-money's Quarter Century Bash

Last night was my roommate Erika's 25th birthday. A couple months ago I had told her about Mom's idea that she did for her 50th birthday. Erika loved it and decided to do the same thing with her "25 Favorite Things". So she's been looking around for the past month and a half collecting things to give away as one of her favorite things. It's been so fun planning for this. She's been super excited. So last night was the big party. It was a blast! At one point our entire living area was completely packed with people. I didn't do very well with my job as the camera person, because I was busy with a lot of other things too. I wish I would've gotten a picture of how crowded it was at that one point. Anyways, we had many hours and hours of fun!!! Guitar hero and food all night long!!

Erika with her 25 favorite things all wrapped up and ready to be given away.

Nate with the spread. The crockpot on the far right is filled with Queso, a staple at any gathering a Nuttall is included in.

Bre and AD thought it was pertinent to take a picture of the ice cream cakes. They were definitely a hit. One was mint chocolate chip (Erika's favorite ice cream) and the other was cookie dough. It's my new favorite dessert to make!! I put a lot of hot fudge in it, which is apparent by the total mess it made!

Me and Nate, a good friend of mine and Erika's from our ward last year in Provo.

We love World Tour!!

Trash Lady was one of my many jobs last night.

Bre got a present!! It was one of Erika's favorite cereals.

The birthday girl and me at the end of the night. AD chastised me for changing into my t-shirt, but it was so hot and late!!

I'm such a poser. I couldn't make a face like that without cracking up too hard.

...And to cap off the night!! I missed that actual fall, but heard it from the other room. It was hilarious! The best part is that the whole night Erika was preventing anyone else from sitting on it. (Aunt Cathy - this is one of the stools that you and Uncle Gary gave me. So sad!! They've been getting looser and looser every time someone sits on them. I've tried to tighten them, but they're assembled so weird that I couldn't really do anything for it. Such a sad casualty!!!)
