The Last of March

 A disclaimer to begin:

my past couple of posts, my pictures are super dark! they're not like that on my computer, just my blog. and i don't know how to fix that. so....sorry. 

here's last week (Mar 23-29):

 wizards for life:

 pop mowin the lawns. 

Thursday night, My sister Katrina and her adorable family surprised us with a visit!  I was so happy to have them here! you know that feeling when you don't even realize that you miss something, until you have it again?

yeah, it was a good weekend. they're all perfect. 

i literally could not get enough of these cute kiddos! 

Ryder!!!! he's literally the chillest and happiest baby!!

 i love love love them. 

Saturday was the weasel's birthday!!! I decorated the kitchen for again. she woke up in like the middle of the night to go to some FFA competition though, and i didn't even hear her up until she was literally walking out the door, so she couldn't even redeem her free breakfast coupon i made her. 

 that's her baby picture. adorbs. 

 That evening i went up to the mountains for a double date with my ...wait for it.... Boyfriend :)

and our friends Mark and Alex who are adorable. look at 'em:

 

 first of, can we appreciate these grainy photos? haha Mark and Alex look like the cover of a Rom Com. Ryan and i look like potato peelings. hahaha. i promise we're pretty dang good looking and charming in real life. we were gonna play tennis but the courts were locked so instead we walked around the lake and talked in a little grove before heading off to dinner. dreamy much? absolutely.

 And in case you've missed my incessant posts heretofore on the blog and Facebook, 

This weekend is the General Conference of my church. 

and you can watch all of the sessions whether you're mormon or not! 

the speakers are incredible. there were 13 today, and they all spoke of Jesus Christ and His gospel. 

and here i am inviting you again to watch it with me! there is a men's session happening right now, though anyone can watch it online. and tomorrow - sunday the 6th - there will be two sessions! one at 9 am PDT and the second at 1 PDT (10 and 2 MST)

Hi, i got glasses today and it's the strangest thing i've ever experienced. honestly.
also,
I saw X-rays today of me and Jenae's backs side to side at the Chiropractor's today. we have el saaaame spine, y'all. all out of wack. but i have way bigger shoulder and hip bones. hmm.

here are some pictures from the last week and a half or so:

 this little old man rides past our house every day around 1pm, while i'm reading at my desk. he's adorable.

mah first ever Chipotle. as good as they say. 

My pop got a letter from a friend in Australia, and this was the stamp. yes, all hail this infant. 

 rip Trogdor cup :(((

 Ryan, i will drive to "Four Corners" to pick you up every single day if you want, because i get this scenery on the way.

one extra large Hawaiian Pizza for freeeeeeeee. holla. thanks Gina ;)

did i mention that i'm the stage director for the Madera South High School musical? because i am. and i'm going to kill one of the punk little kids any day. watch for me on the news. i'm serious.

March 8 was HAPPY HANSEN DAY. WAHOOOO. I got the HUFFLEPUFF HANSEN award! YAY!! thanks natalie jean ;) 

Right: his concentration face = the angriest thing i've ever seen, haha.

Left: the best ice cream i've ever had. oh and Curtis telling me that he's Ryan's wife and that i am 'the other woman'. hahaha. it's true, though. 

told ya.

 he approved of an 80's floral dress, encouraged me to get an African-y lookin' jumper, AND got seconds of the dinner we made together even though it was weird tasting. so obviously he's a keeper.

And by the way, Mallorie is literally my twin.

also, round of applause for Mallorie for not hating me after i made her a third wheel. 

she's a keeper, too that Mal.

MALSTER HAK AND M-DAWG HANSEN, BEST FRY-ENDS FO LYFE

hi, unshredded shredded cheese.

hi, that's my spine. with an ouchie curve right at the bottom, which according to my chiropractor, is hereditary and developed as if it was normal when i was 9 or ten. 

and hey look, there's jenae on the right. weird, weird weird. 

speaking of the weasel, i was taking her birthday pictures the other day, and caught her face right when she noticed a giant bee by her head. HILARIOUS. i can actually hear her man scream in this picture. 

she's a babe.
