My Bella Moment

Every Wednesday I go to my moms before work to read the paper and she cooks me lunch (Thanks Mom!) I was going to my car to head to work and I stepped off the curb with one foot and my next foot caught the edge of the curb sending me flying forward landing on my right knee and I caught myself with my left hand. Now, I have fallen many times, but I hadn't fallen that hard in a long time. My mom saw me and thought I had just dropped my purse, but when I didn't get up right away she came over to me. I just had to sit there on the wet ground for a while. When I did get up I was way light headed and I couldn't really hear very well. My mom took my arm and I decided to go wash my hands and pants off. I stopped off on the stairs in the hallway while my mom got me a wash cloth. I decided to just try and breath slowly and close my eyes. The next thing I remember is my mom saying "Jena! Jena!" She told me when she came to give me a wash cloth I was slumped over with my hair in my face and when she put the wash cloth on my forehead I opened my eyes and then they rolled back in my head and I went white! I had fainted! After, I felt like I had just woken up from a full nights sleep. I wasn't light headed and I could hear just find. I went to work and felt a little sore but I was great the rest of the day. I guess I am just a wuss when it come to pain... a little like some one we all know.

I am with you there, on the wuss and clumsy parts. I haven't fainted though, but I do recall another moment when you fainted in my arms. I was trying to put your earing back in your ear and the next thing I knew, you were all limp. Crazy, but kinda funny. I hope you get feeling better. :)

Your fainting stories are funny. I wish I could've been there. It probably would've been kinda scary. Too bad Edward wasn't there to save you.

Playlist Fun

I thought this would be a cool idea, and a chance for me to brag about how awesome we are ;) I decided to create a playlist that only had bands on it that either Jena or I (or both) have seen in concert. So you are now listening to this playlist. Here is a little information to go along with the playlist: It only includes bands that we wanted to see, it doesn't include opening bands (unless we really liked them). You will notice that there is more than 1 song for a few of the bands. This reflects how many times we have seen them live. (Yes, I have seen Red Hot Chili Peppers 3 times, and I will see them again if I have the chance.) I refused to include songs from 2 of the concerts that Jena has been to, for personal reasons. These concerts are Garth Brooks and The Dixie Chicks. The first concert I ever went to was in 8th grade and it was Jimmy Page and Robert Plant. You know, from Led Zeppelin. I took my dad to see Deep Purple for Father's Day a few years back. Smoke on the Wate...

Our Everyday Life: Weeks 15-21

Where do I begin?! A lot has happened in the few short weeks that I haven't blogged. We unexpectedly moved back to Utah! Not only Utah, but our old hometown. **** Before we moved back to Utah, we visited family in Utah for Thanksgiving. Creating hand turkeys with Mema for thanksgiving. Jordis was quite positive that we couldn't see her. Barber Family Photo! I think he's pretty handsome... Boy band shot. All the grand kids.  We made candy sleds to race at GG's house with some of Jordis' cousins.  ****    We frequently head to the Harley store as a form of entertainment. Jordis could ride on this rocking  Harley all day. Notice that she HAS to wear gloves while riding. We had one last get together with some of our really good friends in Twin before we left. Visiting someones house that they decorate their entire yard and ...
