Big Truck Night

YAHOO! On Tuesday the pre-k had a big truck night. There were a lot of big trucks for the kids to see and climb on and in. One of the vehicles there was a book bus, and all the kids got a free book. There was also bucket truck that took some of the teachers up really high, I was one of the lucky ones. Scary! It was a lot of fun. The kids enjoyed watching there teachers going up that high. Right before I went up in the truck one of the kids said to me "Miss Jessie, don't be scared...just smile!" haha it was great. And most of them yelled "Miss Jessie, Miss Jessie ( I would look down on them) Don't look down!"

Killerpillar!

I am back working at the school this yea, I am in the all day Pre-K class. Right now we are in the middle of learning about caterpillars and how they turn into butterflies. All this week we had been reading The Very Hungry Caterpillar. The kids got to make there own hungry caterpillar, we had a circle for each day and then they clued a picture of the food the caterpillar ate that day. They also got to try the food themselves. Then we clued all the circles together to make a big caterpillar. On Monday the kids will tell there reading buddies about the book.

We also have five monarch caterpillars in the class room and we are going to watch them make there chrysalis. The kids have really enjoyed watching them eat through all the leaves and get bigger and bigger. I over heard one of the kids the other day call it a killerpillar, I can't stop calling them that now.

Tacy and I decided to go on a killerpillar hunt for a swallowtail caterpillar, but we had no luck but we did find, a big monarch and a tiny green one that will eventually turn into a moth.( lame)

Other than school, I don't have much going on in my life. I had a few Tupperware parties since I started selling but not a ton. Which is nice because I am so done with the day after school. I will try and post when I do fun things, but don't judge me If all I have to post is things that we are doing in pre-k. We are having big truck night coming up so maybe ill post about that.

Still Alive

I am still alive! Sorry I have not posted in a while, I will post something by the end of the week I PROMISE!

Tupperware Calling!

For those of you who don't already know I am now a Tupperware consultant! I decided to become a Tupperware consultant because I wanted a little extra cash and Tupperware sounded fun, so hopefully it all goes well.

If anyone need anything Tupperware you can order from site which is...

my.tupperware.com/jessienelson

Woohoo!! I have my own site!

Thats not my name!

I have a problem with calling something by its given name meaning I can't just say my pets name I have to add something to the end of it.

Some examples---

Olive= Olive Bunion, or Olive Girl.

Katy= Mandaline Violin and on a good day I switch Violin with Trombone to the end

Sophie= Sophaline (a combination of her first and middle name) and Snow Pea

Sage= Sage Brush

Nubbins= Nubbins puppy, turd sniff and depending on my mood I combine it all for a title of Turd sniffer nubbins puppy.

Eli= Malowlow, I got it from his sister who called in Eli Malowlow Hamburger Hotdog.

I guess it is just nicknames, but I have not idea where I get some of them. Poor Tacy has never gotten a nickname from me I don't know why but I just haven't found something that clicks. Maybe someday I will...

Catching up....

I now know that I should never commit to a 30 day blog writing project. I am horrible at updating on a regular basis. Okay so here is day 24- 30 in no order because I can never get pictures in order on here.

A picture of you and a family member... This is a lame picture but its the only one I have that is not of me and my sisters.

Something your afraid of .... SPIDERS! SICK!

Something that means a lot to you....My sisters! I don't know what I would do without them.

A picture of what makes you smile...

We were playing with sparklers in the house and we burnt a hole in the carpet!! HAHA

Something you wish you could change... The seasons, I think it would be fun to switch season whenever I get sick of the current one.

Someone you miss.. Kimberly Ann Barnes! She came out here a few summers ago and has come back every summer except this one! I miss her!

A picture of my day... I know it is Saturday but every weekday is spent with this adorable kid!

Someone who inspires you

I do not have a picture for this one, but It is Jennifer Smith. She is AMAZING! She is always optimistic and had the best advice! I really really would love to be as great as she is. I know she is a fantastic mom, because she is like a second mom to me, and she has done a FANTASTIC job raising her kids. I just really really like her a lot!

Your favorite book

I am still reading this book, and I am really really liking it.

The problem is...

THE WEEKEND! The weekend throws me off. I can do good at posting for a while but then the weekend comes and something happens that makes me forget about everything. So here are the make-up days. I would apologize but I can't say that this won't happen again.

12

-Something you love-

I LOVE road trips! If I had to choose between taking a airplane somewhere or driving I would most definitely choose driving. Tacy and I took a day trip to Callao Missouri over the weekend to get a pet bunny, and the drive was GORGEOUS the day was perfect the sun was shining, and spring was starting to show itself. There is just something about hitting the open road that is just so exciting to me!

13

- Your favorite band/artist-

I use to listen to music all the time!! I MISS IT! Sophie and I would be rocking out to the latest music from all the bands we liked. But I have not kept up with it all.

MXPX was one of my favorite bands when I was in high school, and whenever I am in the car and want to listen to some memory music (music that brings back memories) I turn on the MXPX it makes me so happy to listen to them because it brings back a ton of memories of Soph and I going to concerts with her dad.

AHH I LOVE IT!

-Someone you can't imagine your life without-

I can't imagine what life would be like if he hadn't suffered for all of us. I am so thankful for him and am glad I have him in my life.

15

- Something you want to do before you die-

I have always wanted to travel Route 66. I am not sure why, probably because I like road trips, but it has always been something I want to do. Even if it is not much of anything I want to do it SO bad!

Eleven

A picture of something you hate...

REFRIED BEANS!

YUCK! I really hate all beans (besides green beans) but these ones are probably the most gross looking. They look like vomit...and they make want to vomit...

Day 10

--A picture of something you want to do this year--

This one is lame but I would LOVE to loose some weight this year. It is so hard to get started and I think I have been trying to get started for the past month!! AHH!! Frustration...

Nine

Day 9- A picture of the person who has gotten you through the most. I should be doing my mom because she has gotten me through the most. But I thought I would switch it up.

My sisters would be a very very close second. They are the BEST! We have our fighting sister moments but they never usually last long. We didn't always get along like we do know. When I was younger (and into my teens) I was very sensitive, so whenever they made joke involving me or looked at me funny I would freak and cry. Tacy and Katy stuck together for the most part and Nathan and I stuck together, so at some moments it was like us against them. Tacy and I had THE HARDEST time getting along for some reason. But we didn't really get along until I moved to Utah I think. Right after I graduated high school I moved out to live with her in Rexburg for a few months, and the first month was a disaster. I would get mad at the stupidest things and so we would just fight. But we eventually got along and now we be in the same room without fighting.

Anyway, they are both great. I can't imagine not having sisters, or not having a relationship with them. I can talk to them about ANYTHING! I love them both very very much!

Sechs, Sieben, Acht

Days 6, 7, 8. OOPS! Where did those 3 days go! I will be better at this I promise

Day 6-

A person you would love to trade places with for a day.

I chose Jared Padalecki because if I were to trade places with him for a day I would get to hang out with....

Jensen Ackles

Day 7-

You're most treasured Item- This one is really really hard. I guess I would have to say, my rooster collection. I'm not sure how it started but it did. Our kitchen in our apartment is full of roosters. I LOVE IT!

Day 8-

A picture that always makes you laugh.

These girls are going to kill me but I can't help it.... This was from a few summers ago, and right before Sage got married. But these three girls decided to go skinny dipping the the Mississippi, I opted out of that because I know how gross that water is. Anyway. They wanted me to stand by for the lookout, and right when they got in the water the security truck drove by. They all freaked out but luckily he just kept on driving.

If only it was that easy...

I'm reading this book called Matched. In the book the people at age 17 go to a matching banquet where they are matched with the person they will marry. They have 5 years to get to know this person and then when they turn 21 they get married.

I don't wish to find the one I will marry at age 17 but it would be nice to be shown who it is.

Day Fünf!

--Picture of my favorite memory--

It was when I moved to Utah. It was my first "grown up" thing to do probably. But when I moved I was scared, of course, but it turned out to be probably the best thing that has happened to me. I think I grew up a lot when I moved.

Because we live in the mid-west, my siblings have not had a lot of opportunities to get to know our cousins or grandparents. But when I moved I lived within 1 hour of all of my family. I lived with my moms sister most of my time out there which gave me the chance to spend time with my cousins that I didn't know very well. I also cooked for my grandparents twice a week so I got a lot of time to know them. Since it was my first time being away from home for that long of time, I missed Thanksgiving, and Halloween. I was really sad to be missing those holidays but because I lived so close to family I had somewhere to go for any special event that was going on so I never felt alone. It was great!

Number four!

A picture from your favorite night of the year.

The night of the PUMPKIN WALK! I love that night! Its a fantastic tradition that I could not live without.

Day DREI

A picture of the cast of your favorite TV show! This is hard, seeing as how I like almost all the TV shows I watch. But the show that I could watch over and over again and never get sick of is Veronica Mars.

Number Zwei

A picture of you and someone your close to.

SOPHIE SABENIAL SMITH

To start her actual middle name is Caroline, but her mom wanted it to be Sebenial (sp?) so I sometimes call her that. Sophie is a FANTASTIC friend. We first met in sixth grade but we were not friends then. She actually admitted later in our friendship that she thought I was weird when we first met. But alas we have gotten past that and have been good friends ever since probably 7th maybe 8th grade. We have had our friendship up and downs as most people do but nothing has kept us apart. I remember sitting in young women's with Sophaline (one of the many many nicknames she lets me call her) and our leaders were telling the class that the friends we have now will not be our friends once we get into high school and older. When they said that Soph and I told each other that that would never be us. I don't think we will ever not be friends, she is great and I d0n't think I could ever ask for a better friend.

Following in her footsteps...

Well Katy is doing this, and I have had nothing better to blog about so I guess I better do something, and this sounded kind of fun. So here it goes...

Day 1- A picture of you with 10 facts!

1- I LOVE my job

2-Boogers really make me gag

3-I have no idea what I want to be when I "grow up"

4- I like animals more then they like me....if you don't believe me read this.

5- I have always wanted a big black truck!

6- We hair stuck in the show drain makes me want to VOMIT!

7- I kissed a boy on the bus when I was in 8th grade.

8- I love the movie "The Outsiders"

9- I miss Sister Sophie Caroline Smith

10- Quentin Tarantino really really creeps me out!

Just a few things

We are FINALLY all settled in our new apartment! It is so nice to not have to unpack anymore and just sit and relax.

We had TWO snow days this week, the first one was because of snow, and the second was because it was like -10 or so outside.

Tacy and I are ADDICTED to this new game I bought called Animal Crossing: City Folk. It is a game where you live in this town and you can fish, grow things, decorate your house, sell your things, and whatnot. You can also visit other peoples towns, so you can trade things and get more fruit from them. It sounds pretty weird, but its kind of a lot of fun. Anyway, we have been playing a lot lately and today we discovered we are not the only 20+ year old on here. We discovered a 35 year old women, and a 29 year old. HAHA! Its so fun, I also talked to a 10 year old, but that is beside the point. The point is we are not the only adults on here.

I just had a huge bowl of ice-cream with M&M and Oreos in it and now I am FREEZING!

That's it for now....

New Year!

Wow 2010 went by so fast! A few highlights of the year were,

Katy getting married!

Me getting a full time job!

Tacy and I getting out of the $600 house!

oh... I guess I thought that there would be more but three is not to bad!

Who knows what could happen this year, anything really.

One thing that has happened is we have packed up our house and are suppose to move into our apartment on Monday. We went to the apartment yesterday because we were told it was pretty much ready for us to move in they just had to clean it. But the lady that was cleaning it discovered that the men working on the house didn't clean up anything they were working on so there was drywall (or something) on the carpet, the sink still dripped and they were suppose to fix it. and there was hunks of wood in our entryway and our backyard, and an air-conditioner on our living room floor lol. Hopefully it is all finished by Monday (crossing our fingers) we are ready to move for sure.

So far the disappointing things about this new apartment is that when we said we wanted the apartment we were told that because we were moving in they would replace the fridge, stove, and put in a washer and dryer. Well they wont replace the fridge and stove until spring( again crossing our fingers) because we looked in the stove and fridge yesterday and GROSS, but hopefully they will.... they better. Also when we went to the apartment yesterday there was not a washer and dryer but there was a place for them. So I hope when we go back on Monday the fridge and stove are clean, there is a washer and dryer, and the sink doesn't drip. UGH! I just ready for all of our stuff to be out of the other house and in this new apartment.
