I feel like this needs it's own post. The greatest invention of mankind...well, except for maybe the DVR...and the HDTV.

Get it.
Um yeah, that's right, that's Adam Lambert...no seriously, it is. Since he's single now, do you think he might go straight?
His album comes out in 2 1/2 weeks. You can get both his singles that are out now(they're both in my playlist below) - For Your Entertainment and Time For Miracles. I've had them on repeat since they came out - so good. He's already been on the cover of Rolling Stone, he's on Details mag now, he's performing on the AMA awards later this month, he's gonna be on GMA, Ellen, and Letterman...he's got Pink, Lady Gaga, Rivers Cuomo of Weezer, Ryan Tedder of OneRepublic, Katy Perry's producer, etc., etc., etc. involved with his album...huh, now, was he really the runner up?Posted by Tara at 8:24 PM 2 comments
Goodbye Boise
Goodbye Dr. Buhrley's office...hello Poky. I lost my job in Boise, but I was lucky to find a job in Poky the next week. I now work for Steph's dentist, Dr. Smith. He lives down the street and he was her former bishop. No more Boise, no more Costco runs with Noelle and Danielle, no more good restaurants, no more decent mall. But it's not so bad, now I'm living at Steph's house...but it can be a little nutty. I feel kinda bad throwing Lola into the mix. Now Steph has to deal with 3 dogs. Sorry Steph...
Now that I don't have Lola sleep in the crate at night, apparently she has taken to sleeping in the bed with me. She's actually looking a lot like Toby, which makes me a little sad but it's also kinda cool, kinda like I have a little bit of Toby around. Sometimes I call her 'T.J.' for Toby Jr.
Teagan wore this home from school...yeah. And then he wanted to wear it to school the next day.
Oh Ryken.
I share a bathroom with Marlee now. When you'd shower, within 10 minutes it turned into a bath. I told Marlee it was clogged with hair. Marlee claimed it was my hair, apparently I've lost a whole head of hair in 2 weeks. I couldn't stand it anymore so I got a hanger and Steph watched while I pulled this 'thing' out of the drain. Aaand...Casablanca.

I'm not dead, I swear...oh and MIDDLE FORK
Yeah yeah, I haven't posted in FOREVER. So I'm going to have to post a few updates to catch up.
In late July/early Aug. I went down the Middle Fork with Steph and her family and our Dad. It was kind of a crazy mash up of a private/outfitter trip. We had to pay a little more then a private trip but we got to take our own boats and then the guides took care of most of the work and the cooking. We went with a bunch of people Steph knows from Poky - Paul's brother Michael and his other brother Mark and his family, Marlee's best friend Sheridan and her family, Kim Smith (my now boss) and his daughter Whitney, and a few other people. I wish Noelle and/or Joseph could have come, but it was still SO much fun. Good fishing, good food, and we were lucky to have great weather.
Let's pretend Steph took a picture of the launch at Boundry Creek...it would have looked like this. (This is really our Middle Fork trip from 05'). But it's one of my favorite things.
Look closely and you'll see 2 rattle snakes in the bushes. This was at Rock Island camp during lunch. Whitney just happened to hear them when she walked by. There was a male and female. It's creepy how well they blend in.
This is Sheridan and I entering Tappin.
Cole taking his turn running the boat. He was actually doing pretty well.
The cutthroat fishing was gooood.
Kim Smith (Steph's dentist and now my boss) made us do a group floss every night.
Marlee on the tube of my cat.
Me and Sheridan on my cat at Indian Creek.
Here's myself, Steph, Sheri, Laramie, Miso, and Whitney at Lune Creek camp. I'd never stayed there but it made for a really cool camp. It was super hot a couple of the days. We put our chairs in the water to cool off while we waited for dinner.
Marlee manning my cat.
And here's the whole group, although I think dad was tinkering around on his cat and Lloyd was taking the picture.

"Her Name Was Lola..."
Steph and I got our puppies on Friday. Could they be any cuter? Sadly, I had to come home today and left Lola with Steph til Thursday when I go back. But we wanted Lola and Steph's puppy Presley to be together for the week. Here she is Friday, we weren't planning on picking them up til this coming Tuesday, but Steph and I have no restraint. We ended up going back that night and taking them home.

As you can see, I took part in one of Marlee's photoshoots while playing with the puppies at Mark and Diana's house.

Lola (I'm pretty sure)
Here she is...her name is Lola, at least for now. She's still with her mom for another week and a half. Could she be any cuter? She's super calm, which is awesome.
She was clinging to Marlee like a baby.

Meet My Puppy
Steph's brother-in-law's dog had puppies 2 weeks ago, she had 7 girls and 2 boys. Steph and I will both be getting one. I'm not sure which one is mine yet, but she's in there somewhere.
Maybe she's this one. The name has also yet been decided. I like the name Gwen(surprised?). But until Laura has her baby next week, it's still unknown.
And this is way off topic, but the 'New Moon' trailer premiered on the MTV movie awards on Sunday(which was actually pretty funny this year...especially the 'Bruno'/Eminem thing, staged or not, that was hilarious). People seem to be on the fence about the trailer. I must say, the cinematography seems to be way better. I was not a big fan of the bluish-green tint in Twilight, among other things. The werewolf looks a little too CGI, but they've still got 6 months to work on it.

Their first bath. She looked like a drowned rat.
