so the store is having a fab yard sale tomorrow november 1st…and so i decided to participate. it felt good going through all my stuff and only keeping what i actually use. i was pretty impressed with myself i only got rid of 3 boxes and had everything fit nice and neat in my scrap room…i know i know…i am amazing!! but then i realized that i am only that amazing because i have moved twice in the past 2 years and thus i have cleaned out huge at each move. well anywho…tons of great stuff at the yard sale…you should come. peace heidi lynn

life is an amazing thing. yesterday my uncle died suddenly. he had a massive heart attack and it killed him instantly. he was in good health and was the last one anyone thought would die. he was an awesome guy…wonderful father…he left one amazing family. death is hard at anytime…but it seems even worse when it isn’t expected. it is just hard to wrap your head around it… it really makes you think about life and what is really important…Heavenly Father really must have a reason to take him…either for him or for us…leave a little room in your prayers for my aunt rosemary and her family…they really need it.

like i said life is an amazing thing…it brings sadness but it also brings a ton of happiness…i am pregnant…and the boy named paulie and i are totally stoked.

what…i wanted to be sure…peace friends heidi lynn

do you ever wonder if you brain could really explode? i have been wondering that for the past couple of weeks. to think just a couple of months ago i was bored out of my mind wanting things to do…wishing i didn’t have to watch day time tv (i mean i love judge judy..but you can only watch so many judge shows.) wanting so bad to go out to the outside world but couldn’t because my face was broken. now all i could wish for is a good nap and to watch said shows. thanks tt gals for understanding. it was so fun to chill with you girls. here is the extra pages measurements that i promise.

so you have to think about a lot when you get a new face…everything changes…the way you do your make up, what sun glasses you wear, and your hair. this past month i have been trying to get use to my new face…i mean i know it is me and everything…i don’t get shocked anymore every time i see my reflection, but i was trying to figure out what looks good with my face now…it is like picking out cute shoes for a new outfit…you want it to look like you know what you are doing. i was sick of getting asked if i was in ditching high school or asked why a 15 year old is teaching my class, so i enlisted hillary ann for some help. for those who don’t know, hillary is my really cute younger sister who does hair at epic salon…she totally rocks the hair process…so i asked her what she thought i should do…and this is what she came up with.

she was all shorter face…shorter hair…i think it works.

i was told i needed an update about how i was feeling…super good is what i usually say. i didn’t know how horrible i felt all the time until how good i feel now. it was so worth it. i can breathe…i haven’t had a real headache in 4 months…and i can’t tell you how amazing that feels. i sleep so much better paul sleeps so much better (doesn’t hear me doing impressions of darth vader at night anymore.) i still can’t chew really hard or condensed things (carrots nuts, my favorite candy in the whole wide world peanut m&ms) but that is really nothing to complain about…i am so grateful for chewing. i also still get light headed a lot. if i stand up quickly turn a corner quickly i still have to wait for my head to catch up with me. I still get super tired…i am not quite back to my old self…but i am working on it. my doctors are all so amazed how fast and well i am healing…i should be able to get the braces off in december which would totally rock. i have so much more movement in my face…i can even do this now…

my most popular comment is that i look more like my mom which is the biggest compliment in the universe because i have always thought she was so pretty.

so thats it…i am good…life is good…now time to start popping out some kids! oh and sydney is walking…so stinkin freaking cute!

i will post totally t pages tonight…peace friends!

just want to say look how stinkin’ cute blog is…the boy named paul totally designed and drew and did this…he is absolutely AMAZING!! love that boy.

so life has been a little intense lately…1st the boy named paul went golfing…and usually this is nothing new or exciting enough to even mention, but this time he was attacked by mosquitos….he came home with over 100 bites all over his legs, arms and face…at first i was like totally your fault for not coating yourself with bug spray…but then we found out he was allergic he got so swollen the doctor had to give him a shot right away….so then he got a little sympathy…2nd Creative Escape happened…HOLY HANNAH! It was crazy setting up and working the store on site…it was fun and but tiring. my favorite part was when tim holtz auction off his shirt for cancer research and a lady doated $6000 to get it…i haven’t laughed that hard in a while.  then because i am really super smart i scheduled my tt class to be the week after. then it was the phoenix scrap convention….that same weekend i taught 150 activity day girls a card. so today…being tuesday after all that hallaballoo i finally feel like i can breathe…so now i can blog…and i am so glad to be back friends! peace heidi lynn
