Nickname?

I've really never had a nickname, or one that stuck. I remember when I was little I was always jealous of people who had nicknames that stuck. As pathetic as this sounds, I used to try and start my own hoping others would catch on.

I half-way lied, I do have one. Time for a confession. I was given the nickname, "Chis", from my dear friend Staci and her sister. To be honest when I was first called that, I cried. Anytime I got a birthday invite or anything my name was spelled wrong. Always. There are just too many ways to spell, Kristi. So when they didn't say my name right, I was crushed. But to this day, I am still,  "Chis" to them.

Back to the purpose of this post. My coworker gets daily words from Urban Dictionary. He was extremely excited about yesterday's word. He was so excited about it, he decided to forward it to me, to share the greatness. Here is the e-mail I  received.




It is a well known fact that I am, as the Urban Dictionary states, a "Glutard". I have been a "Glutard" since February 2005- Crazy huh? I know. Luckily its becoming quite the fad, it makes it a lot easier to find Gluten  Free (GF) products!I really don't know if its an honor to have that title, or somewhat offensive? I'll go with the idea that its an honor.

Sincerely,
The Glutard (?)

P.S. I just found some "swag" that might need to be purchased. Stat. Check it out!

GF Hot chocolate will never be the same...

I could maybe get some ink done? Like a gang or something?

It comes in different colors, SCORE!

Busy weekend!

I had such a great, but busy weekend! I hope you did, too!

On Friday some of the girls I work with had a GNO! It was filled with:



It was beyond delightful. I love Wingers, but Greg hates it. So it was nice going with some friends! I still can't decide if I liked the movie, or not. Has anyone else seen it yet?

Saturday was booked solid, too. I had a much needed hair appointment that morning and went dark, I love it!

I'm not trying to look retarded, just showin' the red-ness

Then I went on to doing some math homework. I really, really despise math. It is completely useless... anyways, then I did my sister-in-law's hair for homecoming and helped a little with her make up. She looked so cute! I'm still waiting on a final picture.

That night we went with Greg's friend and his wife to Spaghetti Factory and tried going to the SLC temple, but got there a little late. So instead, we got a tour of the conference center. I have been a few times before, but it was so nice to see it again.

Then on Sunday, after the Brigham City Temple dedication we took my parents to see the house! Are you (as if anyone even reads this) sick of hearing about the house? Well, too bad. :) 

I'm SO glad we went and saw the house again, it has come a long more than I thought it would have. The garage door is on, the interior doors have been delivered, the baseboards arrived as well, and the outside is at the beginning of being stucco'd (sp?)!! 

I can't wait to see it progress! Its so exciting. I have sort of forgot all the colors we picked, so hopefully I'll still like them. Haha! Here are a few pictures so far.

Doesn't the sky look cool?

The side-view

Our adoorable doors..see what I did there?

Us in front of the humble abode (sp?)

I have been getting a little nervous about our decision to move to Eagle Mtn, but each time I see it I know we made the right choice. Its so exciting, but I've never lived this far away from my family, which will be hard to adjust to. I guess we'll have to host some holiday and/or random party/get-together's so people will consider visiting us. :)

Sunday night I started making cake pops, but it was mostly a fail because I didn't allow them to freeze all of the way at first. But here are the few I did that were successful!

I have a love/hate relationship with these things. They are a pain to make (not hard, just annoying) but SOO delicious to eat!
