Execution of Operation 'Jello'

So, about 2 weeks ago my cousin Dallin got married. The wedding reception was out in Lindon, so my mom, dad, and sister picked me up and I went out with them. When they dropped me off back at my house, this is how the conversation went:
Mom: (handing me the wedding announcement) "Will you throw this away? I don't want it laying around in my car."
Me: "Aren't you going home right now?"
Mom: "Yes"
Me: "Why don't you just throw it away when you get home?"
Mom: "Because I want you to throw it away. I don't want it laying around in my car."
Me: "Um........ok."
So as I got out of the car, I took the announcement, and as I walked passed their car, I dropped it inside the sunroof, and went inside my house. Not without first leaving a smug smile for them to remember me by. I had to go to work the next morning, and I went out to my car, only to find the announcement stuck underneath my windshield wiper. Sooooo, when I got to work, I put it in an envelope, and mailed it to my mother.
A few days later, I get home to see this little shrine set up on my kitchen table. In case you can't read the yellow sticky note, it says "Bring It". This tacky crap sitting around it, and the picture frame it is in, are courtesy of the dollar store....it is NOT stuff I already owned!So, I decided that Operation Jello was about to be executed. I called my mom on Sunday and offered to bring over some Jello for dinner. Delicious Jello might I add, so she was sure not to turn it down. I then put the announcement in a ziploc bag.....
And buried it in the bottom of the bowl. When I got to my moms, I told her that she better stir it to make sure that the fruit wasn't all at the bottom. As she brought her spoon up, the bag emerged. At this point I hear her screaming, "Lindsey she got us!!"

I am patiently waiting to see if they come up with something to get me back, and NO, putting it in my purse so I find it when I get home doesn't count! Although, since I got home and in the bottom of my purse it was, I may have to do something back to them so they are actually in possession of it. Any ideas.....?

I'm So Thankful....

For a friend that can recognize when I've had a horrible day and for the knowledge of what a little straight shot of sugar can do to boost your mood. Most of all for her willingness to deliver it to me at work, and the hug that came with it.
Love you Alicia!

This one totally had me going....

This is the last time I will make fun of my UPS guy, I promise. He totally had me going this time. I never thought for one moment that something fishy could have been going on with my mat standing straight up in front of my house! Not out of the ordinary at all.
What the......?!?

Happy Fathers Day!

My brother and I got this new lounge chair for my dad for Fathers Day in hopes that it would be a great addition to his sunday naps......and boy was it EVER!
Happy Fathers Day Dad, you're the best!!
Time it took to find dad the perfect gift=20 minutes.
Cost of said perfect gift=$60
Seeing it used in the manner for which it was intended=PRICELESS!

Seriously?!?!?!


Stupid UPS guy! This one was at my next door neighbors house, so it's not just something he has against me!

Don't make any sudden movements Mickey!!

I know the California vacation and Disneyland are a thing of the past, but I got this picture from my sister in law, and I couldn't help but put it on here. I love her eyes!

Super Sneaky UPS Guy....

Sooooo, I get home today, to see my door mat is missing. I think to myself how strange that is, it's ugly, who would want to steal it?? As I am walking up my stairs, I see something out of the ordinary in my flower bed. Yep, you guessed it. UPS guy has put a package down in the dirt, underneath a water faucet, and covered it with the mat. Does he think that the mat will make it invisible? I hate to break it to you UPS guy, you're not fooling anyone!! WE KNOW YOU JUST HID THE GOODS IN THE FLOWER BED! The sad thing is, this isn't the dumbest thing he has done. I have come home to see a package leaning up against my front door, with the mat leaning up against the front of it. OOOOOOOOOOh, tricky!
