Stellar Stella

This is my new car Stella. She is so much fun. I love to drive her. She is a 2004 Chrysler Crossfire. She actually saved me from abandonment when my old Buick gave up the ghost. Fortunately it didnt die until my dad had gotten it back to Provo, but I bought my car just in time. Okay, maybe it was a little irresponsable of me to get it, but I figured, "Hey, I'm single, I don't have to answer to anyone else, I am going to buy it by golly" and so I did.

Sista's

This is my sister and I. We don't look anything alike, but we pretty much have the same tastes. Our voices are so a like that even my mom can't tell us appart on the phone! It's good, however, because Kait likes me because my voice sounds like her mom's voice.

Isn't This Smile Contagious?

Okay so isn't this smile contagious? How can you help looking at this cute little face and not smiling yourself? I tell you I can't!
This is my niece Kaitlyn. She is such a funny girl. When she gets really excited, she flapps her arms and her legs really fast. Its almost as if her happiness was enough to allow her to take flight. I won't be surprized when she actually does start flying one of these days.
She is 7 months old now and her first two teeth just came in. It's hard to live so far away and not be able to babysit or anything. I am completely jealous every time my mom calls and tells me how Kait crawled for the first time, or that she now loves to imitate people, or even how cute she looks in her new swimming suit.

Hi, and welcome to my blog. I'm Amy, but then again, if you are reading this, you probably already know that. I was born in Canada, raised in Provo, Utah, and currently live in Las Vegas, or "The Muddy" as we, so affectionately, call it.

Here is a little bit about me. I served an LDS mission in the Rome, Italy mission and I am passionate about anything having to do with Italy so if you were rooting for any other team durring the world cup, I hope you didn't cry too much when the Italians blew everyone out of the water. Ha ha, suckers

I love running, in fact, I am quite passionate about that too. My goal is to run a marathon some day. I completed a triathlon just before I left on my mission and barely lived to tell about it, so I am trying to prepare a little more for this next, Super Hero Amy, experience.

I love jam in large quantities and, dare I say, I am kind of obessed with that as well. Wow, are you seeing a pattern here? I like to think that I live life passionately, it makes things more exciting!

I am the oldest of two girls. My younger sister and her husband just had a baby in August of last year (2006) and, yup, you guessed it, I am passionate about being an aunt. In fact, I am a pretty darn good aunt, if I do say so myself. I love my little niece.

I have traveled all over the United States. My dad drives a semi truck and when I was young I used to go on trips with him. We counted once and figured I have been to over 35 of the 50 states. I love traveling. My most recent trip was a month long back packing trip to Europe with my best friend, Myra. I would highly recommend it to anyone.

I love books and I love to read and write. I graduated in english from BYU and I am currently trying to figure out what in the world I was intending to do with that. Don't ask me. I had visions of writing books, and I have several in mind that I want to start. I just need to start them.

Anyway, that's me in a nut shell. If you want to know more about me, read the rest of my blog.
