Makenna's Top 10

This is kind of like Letterman's top 10 except that there are less than 10 and mine are not as funny. 

However, here they are....

10. Break lights fixed!

      I went to Advanced auto parts on Monday after work, thankfully I didn't get rear-ended.  I walked into the store and the guy behind the counter- we will call him Ryan. (Mostly because that is his name) asked me if he could help me.  I was very pleased with his eagerness and replied with "Yes! Someone told me my break lights were out and I would like you to come outside with me and see if that is true, if it is I need help me fixing them." I thought the most direct approach would get me the best results. I was right! I now have 2 fine break lights! Thanks Ryan.

9. Pay day! 

    Enough said.

8. Taming of the Shrew.

    Liz, one of the RN's I work with, is currently Bianca in this play. I love plays and I love Liz so I thought going would be double the fun! I was right and Liz was AMAZING!  She was perfectly cast for the role as Bianca! She is so pretty and one the nicest people I have ever met!

 

The play was in Springfield, about 45 minutes and 217 corn fields away. So I was glad that Georgia could come with me so that I didn't get lost.

7. Fresh Flowers! 

    I wanted to take Liz some flowers for doing such an great job in the play and my sweet husband let me pick some out for us too! Fresh flowers are one of my favorite simple pleasures in life. They bring such joy. Plus we got this great vase for our wedding from Sean's cousins recently and we haven't used it yet so this was perfect! You can't see it very well but is has our name on and says est 2009. Way cute!

   

6. 10 tons of Gravel!

    On my way into work on Tuesday traffic was painfully slow. As I was listening to the radio I learned that it was because a dump truck had had an accident and spilled his load of gravel all over the freeway! It was a huge mess. I felt bad for the guy who did it.

5.  When I am old I will wear Purple.

     This week I had to go to the grocery store, all was great until I got in line behind this woman who was placing all 500 items that were in her cart onto the counter one at a time as the check out guy who is generally like lighting (this is why I chose his line) waited for items. I was worried about my sanity- and his- for a little while until I saw her shoes and then it made it worth it!

5. Plane ticket!

    Madison got her plane ticket to come visit Sean and I in Ohio and I am so excited. She will be coming out with us in June when we return to Ohio after our Utah trip.

4. High Heels

    This week was stake conference which means regular church meetings were not held. The sad part of that was that I didn't get to spend time with our Nursery kids. The happy part, I got to dress like someone who doesn't spend the majority of her Sunday on the ground which meant  high heels!

3. Hillary!

    

Hillary will be here in less than 2 weeks! 11 days to be exact. This is going to equal shopping, Kings Island, Titanic, Robin Hood, Gilmore girls, birthday celebrations, staying up late, laughing until we hurt, having food that regulary doesn't see the inside of our apartment, sleeping in, being silly....I can't wait! 

2. Mark and Gina

    Mark and Gina (Sean's parents) are going to be in Chicago for a buisness trip and they are going to stop in while they are in part of the country! They get to go to Kirkland while they are here and see all the places that Sean has been doing rotations, his old ghetto house and all of the things that we do here! Can't wait to see them!

Maybe next time I play this game I will be better at getting 10. For today however Happy Sunday!
