Sweet temptation

Tim was recently suckered in to buying a few things from coworkers and families in the ward. I swear if you ever have a kid doing a fund raiser, go to Tim...he'll probably buy three of whatever you are selling. His recent buy..2 tubs of cookie dough! Oh sweet mercy Tim are you trying to make me fat!? How about the fact that its my favorite kind of cookie dough EVER.. I can hear my butt getting bigger every time I open the freezer for a bite of that sweet heaven!
My stars why must you be the only thing I crave all day long you blasted white chocolate cookie dough! You are torture on a day off!! I can't resist your charm and glorious taste!
So to all my friends.. don't judge me when I gain 10 pounds and look like a balloon..you'll know what its from!!

I love the Holidays! I wait all year for November to come around and say hello. I know I am a nut, dont judge me but I am constantly reminded of the awesome season every time I step foot out my door!! FINALLY GETTING COLD!! Ok Ok its not cold enough yet for one of these..but soon maybe!


November is the month of Thanksgiving( which I am sure you already know) cant wait to enjoy some fatty amount of food and fall asleep! Here are just a few things that I love about NOVEMBER!

1. FAMILY!! ...I LOVE spending time laughing and running around all the different theme parks like crazy people! I love watching my nieces and nephews soak up the magic of Disneyland! I love taking thousands of random pictures with my siblings doing awkward things while we wait in line! And I LOVE our weird family tradition to get old west pictures taken at Knotts Berry Farm on Thanksgiving day... We've done these silly pictures since before I was even born.


2. This man!! I know hes included in the family part.. but He deserves his own slot as well! Double Tim! I am the luckiest girl in the world! He puts up with all my crazy rantings about how we should decorate for Christmas the day after Halloween. He even cleans up after me when I make banana bread! He sings me Michael Buble's "Everything" When we get ready for bed. Oh I could go on and on.. I am so blessed to have him in my life.. So grateful to spend the holidays with the man that stole my heart! Hes so hot!

3. PIE!! It is the only time all year I am not judged for eating large amounts of apple pie! Oh heavens throw some whip cream on it and I am one happy camper.. We spend thanksgiving in Knotts Berry farm and let me tell you a little somethin somethin.. they have more kinds of pie than you can ever imagine.. yes be jealous!
Just looking at this apple piece of heaven makes my mouth water! HOOORAH!!


4. Weather! I love that the weather is cooling off. I wish we had more proof of the seasons changing...but I will gladly accept the fact I can open my windows at night.. all the proof I need is my very low electricity bill( no ac means low bills!! yay!)


5.CANDLES!!! There is something that screams fall and its the smell of my Christmas candles.. laugh at me you might.. but I light those things in November. Tim wont let me decorate quite yet so I get the Christmas spirit by lighting candles!



6. Christmas music! Anyone who knows me can tell you Im in love with Christmas music! It is my happy music! Tims been listening to it against his will and I think secretly he loves it!

Well I hope you all are doing wonderful and loving the holiday season! Stay Safe and be thankful!

... I'm a slacker thats why!

SOO much has happened since I last posted... why has so much happened you might ask, well I would be glad to tell you why...BECAUSE IM A SLACKER THATS WHY!! I have completely neglected the blogging world because of no other reason other than I am failing as a blogger! haha so here goes the mini readers digest version.
1.) Tim and I enjoyed a lovely vacation with my sweet older sister for a weekend.. there are a trillion pictures and since I am that little slacker, I am not gonna post them yet. BWAHAHAH
2.) I quit my job at the Physical Therapy office and now work in a wholesale boutique supplier called POUT IN PINK...if any of you have a girl out there, this might be the store you become addicted to quickly. not gonna lie, I dont have kids and I spend my paycheck there to stock up. It really is pathetic. Pretty sure I need a child.. (and just you wait when that happens Ill get a boy haha). but go check out the site poutinpink.com and be amazed!
3.) Tim and I hit 1 glorious year of marriage!! I could write the longest blog post in history about how much I love and adore that man, but Ill save that for the picture post that I plan on doing after we celebrate our anniversary a month late ( yes im a slacker at marriage sometimes too dont judge me! hahah)
4.) I decided that I am going to start doing hair again for less than HALF of what you would normally pay in a salon. so if you are interested in that shoot me a text, call, email, facebook, or post on this bad boy!
5.) my baby sister is gettin hitched this weekend so tim and I are plannin another road trip home!! cant wait for the glorious weather!! Thats right..be jealous! haha

ok sorry this is the lamest post ever! no pictures, no details, nothing really interesting for this one!! hope youre all doing well!!

AWE LOVE

Let me just start by simply stating.. I really do know that I am a blogging slacker. I get so caught up in stalking everyone elses blogs that I forget to do my own blog. I really am sorta a boring person but maybe here are the latest updates on Tim and I..

Last weekend we were able to travel to Utah for the Reidhead Family Reunion. This is a huge event that happens once a year. This year, I got to be a part of it and it was such a blast!!! We could not decide if we wanted to take our little fluffy puppy along for the ride. We did not know if we could leave her behind but were sorta worried that she would not have an easy ride.. but alas, we could not leave this little face behind. We just love her too much to forget her if even for a few days.




We left at 7pm and I was sooooo tired, however, we made it safely and were ready for the days events...even if we were mostly asleep. haha We got to the reunion and I realized, that I did not know half of Tim's cousins ( which was not really a surprise because there are about 7 million of them) We played some sweet games and ate some delish food!!! Then of course... we took a few pictures!!















Then we headed off to pizza hut for lunch!!! During our waiting session.. the girls got hungry and as I sat across the table from them, this is what they were doing...maybe we needed to feed them faster!






Then we got our pizza and bam..it disappeared!



After that we went back to the park and had dinner and a slide show of the growing family that surrounded us! What an amazing and beautiful experience it was!! I love the Reidhead family! I am so blessed to be a part of it!

Shes all grown up

Last Weekend my little sister came down to the valley to go wedding dress shopping for her big day! In my head she is supposed to be little forever and always be a child but it was super fun to see her as a bride! We literally spent only about an hour at the dress shop. She tried on some gorgeous gowns but picked the very first dress that she tried on and she looks PERFECT in it! I wish I could post a picture but, I dont want to ruin the surprise!

After we went shopping my sweet little mommy took all the sisters out to Olive Garden...YUMMY! Then we all headed to the mall.. these pictures are not the best because I took them on my phone. Apparently you are not supposed to take pictures of things in the store...too bad! BAHAH

This is Lacey and her firey redhead bridesmaids. .. such firecrackers but such sweethearts!



Tiff Really Felt this bow showed of her feminine side.. or her fish side.


I could not help but laugh when Ella popped behind Tiff so awkwardly for this picture. Tiff had no idea she was standing behind her. I love my sister in laws!


I am so glad Lacey is getting ready to join the married club! Shes such a fun little thing and it will be nice to have her move closer to me once she is married! I just love my seesters!!

In the last few weeks...

Well the last few weeks have been a little crazy and my blogging has gotten a little backed up.. so here is a catch up post.. yes its long, Ill try to keep it as short as I can.. HERE WE GO!

June 24, 2010 was my surgery date. As many of you know I had the biggest miracle of my life with this surgery... Everything went really well, minus the fact the mass was WAY bigger than expected and had some fingers attached that wrapped themselves around nerves,arteries, and bones in my wrist. They tested the mass for any signs of cancer and everything came back negative! We are both really relieved at this point! My mommy came down and was SUCH A BLAST! That little woman is super mom Ill tell you what! I am so lucky to have her in my life! I wish I had a cute picture to post of her adorable little self we probably would have freaked out with out her!
Although Not fully recovered, I am doing amazing and can FINALLY touch my pinky to my thumb and move my wrist in a circle!! Its been 3 years since I could do that! ha But seriously folks, we could not be more grateful for our surgeon. Dr. Fitzmaurice is the man!!! He did the mass removal and a carpal tunnel release on my hand, so there are 3 little scars.

This picture is 5 days Post Op and looking good!! (These next 2 Pictures are taken with my phone and are not such good quality.)



I think this 8 days Post Op..Still some bruising but not too bad as far as scaring will go!! woo hoo..


As previously mentioned, Tim and I now have a new addition to our little family! She is probably the funniest little puppy EVER! Tim gets her to growl and her growl sounds something between a high pitched cat purring and human doing the Spanish r sound ( if that makes any sense at all) She brings such a joy to our lives and she really is so stinking cute.Plus she is getting fat, which makes us love her a little more because she is a fat chub chub! haha We took her to the vet for a check up and she did so good.. then we took her to Snowflake with us for the Fourth and she slept the whole way there and back. She runs after us if we go up the stairs but sometimes cant jump the stairs cuz she is so small. She has to sit right next to your feet if you are not playing with her. She does not leave our sides. We are so grateful for a sweet little puppy that loves to be loved!





My baby sister got engaged... It was sorta bitter sweet for me, mostly because in my head she is supposed to be a baby forever. She literally just graduated this year but her fiance is a stud!! Such a good man and he is perfect for her! I am very excited for her!!!! CONGRATS LITTLE SIS!

The Reidhead family is SUPER athletic!This year they decided that they would play in the snowflake softball tournament.Tim did not sign up fast enough,but truth be told, I was really glad that he was there to sit with me.. I was only a few days out of surgery and I was feeling rather needy.. we did not take a whole lot of pictures this trip.. I am not really sure if that is because we were so busy or if I was just lazy.....Lets go with the busy excuse!

I love my darling hubby!! He does such a good job putting up with my photo addiction!! Hope everyone had an amazing holiday!!

We're expecting

Lately I have been feeling slightly baby hungry...ok not really slightly, more like insanely baby hungry!! HAHAH I'm almost certain its because I have had some little babies enter my life latey... Here are just a few of the important babies that we have welcomed in to our lives in the last month!!

This is my older sister's baby Zoey. She is such a cuddle bug and she is so sweet! I wanted to steal her away from my sister, but alas...she would not let me. .. out of all their kids, Zoey is the only one that looks like my brother in law. She is soo cute and little!! We love her and wish we had more time with her! ( They live so far)
This sweet little boy is Jaxon Reidhead. Oh he is SUCH a sweet little man. He has the biggest eyes and just wants to tuck in his legs and cuddle with you....Tim is so cute with him, it really really made me excited to see Tim holding Jax! Oh he is a doll!! We love him!!

This little angel is my best friend Jonique's baby! She has SOO much hair ( as you may be abe to tell) and she has the sweetest temperment I have ever seen in a baby! When we were at the hospital with her parents, Tim told me that she made him want one.. Those were words he had not said to me and actually meant. She must be special! We love her!

Well although we would love to have one, its just not in the cards for us quite yet!! I really wanted a cuddle baby that I could just love on and take care of. Tim finally broke down and told me that he would get me something.. This is what we got!! Oh such a joy! We bought her from the nicest lady EVER whom we just enjoyed talking to! We found our little baby and we get to pick her up pretty soon!! We are SOOOO excited. Its a good alternitve for a baby..and a lot cheaper. haha So no baby quite yet, but someday soon...WE HOPE! For now though, we will love on our little baby puppy and she will be the most spoiled puppy ever!!!!

I made Tim take me to petsmart and buy the cutest softest PINK (naturally) bed that we could find and pretty much all the accessories that she will need...all PINK!! HAHA I love this puppy already I can NOT wait to have her in our home!!

We do not have a cute little name yet for her, so if anyone has any sweet ideas we could really use the input!!!

hawaii 2010!

Tim and I were never able to take a honeymoon after we got married because of work. Once we realized it was entirely necessary for a break to keep our sanity, we started planning a vacation. ( and by "we" I mean "I") i looked for months for a sweet deal and finally found one to MY favorite vacation spot ever!! We spent 10 days in Heaven!! I never wanted to leave, but ill admit, it was nice to come home and sleep in our own bed and see our families. This is going to be a huge picture post. Ill try to caption the pictures but I think they pretty much speak for themselves..

On the bus to our hotel.. We woke up at 5 that morning to travel and its really easy to tell we were tired...but still so stoked to be in HAWAII!! WOO HOO!


Tim and I really wanted to go to the temple. Its gorgeous and we were able to see some awesome people there!!


This cute couple lives in Hawaii. Kilie and I went to high school together, and I had not seen her since....We both married the boys we sent on missions. She helped me through a lot, and I don't think she ever even knew it.

Tim and I were going to be big tourists this trip.....Apparently so was the couple taking the picture with us! hahaha

I love all things history so it was a huge deal for us to go to Pearl Harbor. Its such a unique spot to tour. It was so quiet, people were so respectful, it was clean, and they even had survivors of the attack at the front so you could talk to them. It was really neat to see it with Tim.

Sometimes, Tim is a big kid. He cracks me up.

Conversation with Tim regarding this propeller....

"Tim look a flower!!"

"Trina that's a prop, they use those on ships to move."

"I was wondering why they would want a big metal flower."
We went on lots of tours.. This one is my favorite cuz it takes you to places like the Dole Pineapple Plantation...And they have ice cream there!!

Tim the Pineapple!!! So cute!

As a pineapple I can hula!!

Reidhead Pineapples!!

Anyone that knows me knows I could literally live on Ice cream...This ice cream could change the world! ...NOT JOKNG!!! Easily one of the most fantastic things ever!!!

hahah guess what kind of nut they grow here in Hawaii!!! we got free samples.. AND ice cream, BEST TOUR EVER!!

just cuz he is so good looking!! owe owe hubs!!

Craziest wind EVER!! It just about knocked me over!

Hunama bay snorkeling!

We got to go to the PCC...AKA, one of the funnest days of our trip!! Our favorite island was Samoa.

This man loved Tim's laugh, but then again, who doesnt? ahah Tim thought he was the funniest guy and would burst our laughing in spots where nobody else got the joke. I love his laugh, and his random bursts of giggles. It brings me so much joy!

They threw Tim this woven square ball thing and he was SO excited about it. hahahahah He is so easy to make happy! I love him!!!!!!!!!!!

They were so much fun to watch!!!Canoe Parade..

This is before the dinner!! SOOO good.. I think we would get fat if we lived in Hawaii because the food there is ...INCREDIBLE!!!!

We spent almost every day in the water! We loved the ocean and all the little fishes that were in it!! The water is so blue that you can see your feet when you stand in it!! We loved every minute.. well minus the mean sunburns! haha

We got to go snorkel with all the fishes.There were LOTS of big fish in the water that day, and some crazy waves that made me sick when I just floated so we had to constantly swim.

Tim Loved the water!!

Conversation with Tim while we were enjoying the sun....

"Trina have you ever built a sand castle?"

"Yes honey, I was like 5"

Couple minutes pass......

"Trina have you ever covered someone in sand?"
"Not that I can remember...why ?"

"Can you cover me in the sand?"

Tim digs a hole and jumps in, I start covering him

" Tim I feel like I am 5 again"

"I feel like there is sand in my pants"
HAHAHAH I LOVE MY HUSBAND!

I had to write him a love note in sand!!!

Kickin back and relaxing, this is at our hotel .

HAHAHAHAHA nice buns hun.

We were ready to go home to our house, sleep in our own beds, see our sweet families, and spend some time with our best friends!!!

Apparently they were excited to see us too, this is what we came home to.. HAHAH needless to say, we felt pretty special!!!

We had SUCH a blast relaxing and just doing whatever we wanted when we wanted. It was a nice break from work and an AMAZING time together! I loved having Tim to myself for 10 days! Im sooo glad that I get him for eternity!! We are so grateful we got the chance to go...we've even started to save for next years trip!!!!!
