Cold Long Day... Me just Whining


So I woke up this morning at 7.30AM ON A FLIPPIN' SATURDAY!!! I decided to work this weekend instead of using my sick pay. I wish I didn't when I woke up this morning to snow and ice. I scraped the car off and started my long 10 hour work day. I thought I would have fun going to the movies with a client but I let her pick the movie and Shorts is what she picked. I usally dont mind and have a lot of patients with things, but no body's perfect and today was bad. As we went in I thought ok I can do this it is only 1 1/2 hours and i am sure it is not that bad. Well let me tell you....
not only was it sooooo annoying and long but my client slept the WHOLE TIME. So I really wished I could of just gone to a different movie if it was nap time. Any ways I dealt with it and thought well I will be going to another clients house later and we can do something more enjoyable. Well as I drooped of Client #1 and drove through the storm to client #2 I was looking forward to making dinner with her and then maybe watch some tv or play a game ( our Saturday's are pretty chill) I walk in to High School Musical 3 Blasting my ear drums out! OH SHIZ I thought I really need some help getting through this one. Well I mad it and now i am home Hopefully tomorow wont be as bad and I will be more positive. I guess I just need to whine!!!

Sewing Machine


I was at work and in our club house I saw this Sewing Machine sitting in the corner. After a few days
I decided to investigate who it belong to. Well after some time I discovered it belong to a client that
passed away some months before and it was donated to the Day service program. well I took a
look and it and noticed it did not have the power/ peddle cord with it
so i thought well i bet i can find one at the DI for cheap. Steven and I went there and looked and we
couldn't find one that fit
so i decided i might as well look and a sewing shop to see if they and a cord i could by new. Not
only did they have one but a used one so it only cost me $10 ya 10 smakaroos. I came home and
tried it and it works fine. I went back to work and told my boss and he said I could keep as
long as I use it for a work project a few times a year. Ok soooo I think this is the coolest ever
because I really wanted a Sewing Machine for Christmas and now I got one for $10.
WHOOOOO HOOOOOO

August 25 Mama Heinrichs came!!!


We were so excited to have Mom here. I love her to bits and she made thing so much easier on me with having so many people here. We had so much fun with her the 7 weeks she was here. From Mom 'n Daughter talks to waking up to cinnamon rolls in the morning and having a lunch pack for me for work every day. to playing the penny slots in Vegas and countless of fun and embarrassing memories I was so great to have her here.

September 19 Papa Heinrichs came!

Henk came September 19 and it was great to see him. we had a lot fun spending time with him. We were also very blessed to be able to got to general conference together as a family. We were also sad that his mother passed away which causef him to have to cut his vacation short.


October 2 Steven 23rd Birthday


Steven Birthday was a big bash! He had no idea that we had planned a big surprise birthday party for him up in Heber at our family friends house. First we went out to eat a Daniele Summit restaurant and then we had a GREAT TIME partying the night away.

One year down, forever to go!



Our anniversary was yesterday August 1st. And it was Amazing!
Steven let me sleep in and around noon I received a called.

get up lil' miss and get ready and then take a look at the table. As I got ready and went to See
what it was on the table I saw an envelope with my name on it. Right before Steven hung up he said I
love you and I will see you soon. As I opened this envelope there were two pieces of paper in it the first one said.

Lisa,

Today I’m gonna make you run

through the most talked about part of our history together.

There are clues spread out for you

to find me.

1. The first clue is at the front desk

2. The second clue is at the front desk

3. The third clue is on a phone booth

4. The fourth clue is on a bus stop

As you go through these clues, take some time to look around and think about the fun memories you’ve got. I will be seeing you at the end. I love you!

Your husband, Steven

And the second one said

GO TO WHERE WE HAD OUR FIRST Dinner!


Remember?

You were too modest to pick anything fancier

than a burger. J

And I apologize…I am a messy eater!


Don’t ever forget the spot we ate at…that’s our special table!

As I got in the car and drove to Chilli's Steven had made me a CD of sentimental song for me to listen to.

I walk in to Chilie's explained why I was there and they asked me why is Chilli's sentimental for you?

I explained that is were we had dinner on our first date and they gave me my second envelope

and it said

Where did we go after Dinner?

Go to the store that you found

me shoes!


As I made my way to the mall and went to the store we had bought him shoes I rememberd how funny it was that, that was how Steven got me to go our with him LOL.


Remember?

The whole reason we were out was “to get me shoes.” I guess you got

more than you planned for. J


Well…we found some shoes… which give me sweaty feet, but that’s a worthy

sacrifice right?

As I made it in to the store and asked for my envelope the girl was asking me what dose payless have to do with your relationship?

I told her that's how my husband got me to go out with him is to give him a ride to the mall.


In the that envelope was this clue.


What did we do after shopping?

Remember?


The movie we saw
…The Gameplan. Remember how you were sneaky and slowly moved closer and closer till you were sneaky and confident enough to touch
my hand? I don’t think you remembered much of the movie.

Side note Steven also was moving closer, but yes I did make the first move. I drove to the theater we saw the movie at and on the phone booth was another envelope with my name on it.

In it was this clue

Where did we walk to After?

Go there!

Remember?

How we walked all the way from Old Mill to the temple…through the snow!! Boy was I freezing…but it was worth it!

Side note Steven hates walks after his mission.


Remember how you told me that as a European you didn’t like the American “dating game” and wanted to skip all that? J

So we did!
side note: We both liked eachother and thought it is lame how people drag things out.

at the bus stop there was another clue in that envelope it said

Now meet me at checkpoint 1

So I drove up to Chilli's once more and at our table steven was sitting and we had a wonderful lunch together.

After lunch we went home and relaxed and enjoyed having the day off and in the evening we went and saw Angels and Demons... one of our Favorit Movies.

We had a wonderfull anniversary and are so happy together. This last year has been full of happiness and trials. But both have brought us closer together.

I love you Steven and am soooo happy we are together forever.

Love Lil' miss
