Premiere of the Doritos Commercial





Hey everyone, there was a Doritos Commercial last night.
It was so nice because James asked me if I could
drive him there (which was in DRAPER of all places lol).
I was so for it. It was really fun to meet some really great people there.
I feel in love with that little dog Rhome. He was only 7 weeks old.
Yet He loved Trevor Snarr. I enjoyed getting to know so many people.
The night was a little long. I had work earlier and Just wanted to go
to bed. If you wanted to know, being around great people can
really change your mood. You might be still sleepy, I'm sure it
makes you happy. I loved the random pictures from that night.
It was kind of funny because I was standing by trevor and the
Photographer asked how long we had been married for. We both
looked at each other and said "We just Met". It was kind of funny.
I loved every second of it.

I noticed that James totally ran off
till the very end. At that point I kept trying to get him to go. He
Wasn't listening. I needed to go and sleep because I have to get up at
6AM. Sad thing is He didn't listen really until 12 at night. Then I
had to drag him away. I didn't get home till 1am. Not the greatest feeling
when you wake up so early. You're dead the rest of the time.

I do have to add that besides from leaving so Freakin late. I had a great
time getting to know some new people. Thanks for giving me company,
when my host left me. lol!

Grandmas funral


What a Good funeral serves it was today.
Family members there talking nothing but good things
about Grandma. There really wasn't any anger in that
room where we were. Everyone supporting my sweet grandma.
She looked beautiful. She was in a new temple gown.
I don't think there is anything better then that.

Grandma looked so little yet so beautiful. I couldn't
help but keep thinking how peaceful and beautiful she looked.
I always feel like times like these my sisters always
end up getting super close. I love times like these when
the family seems closer, and there are great talks going around
the room. I was very happy to see the services went
over very well. Good way to remember Grandma,
to say our good byes!

I was so scared to sing a solo today, because my voice was
totally gone. I left my sisters and went to the store to get
some medication for my throat. It started to clear up which
was a great thing, I still felt white washed though. Just happy
I was able to sing.

Dad gave a beautiful prayer and people said their good
byes. They let grandpa go over last. Stood up from
his wheel chair, he then felt her face.
For grandpa was blind as he told her softly that it was
o.k. for grandma to go up without him.
To go be with those that she loved so much.
Told her not to worry about him, that he was going to be
just fine. He mentioned that he enjoyed their time together. Then
He told her that he wouldn't be that long, and he would meet
her up there. He then told her that he was deeply in love with
her. It was so hard for me to not cry. It's so hard for me to not
cry at this very moment. Seeing there love was truly amazing.
I still hope to find that in my life. Someone that I can love for time and
all eternity.

Grandma and Grandpa got sealed for time and all
eternity in the salt lake temple. What a beautiful
place to get married. My favorite temple! Another good
reason to love that temple so much. It means even
more to me now knowing that little bit of information.
My Uncle Ray stood up and talked about When grandma
was born, married, where she died, how many kids she had. etc.
Very nice that he was apart of this service.

Shawna stood up and talked about her life recently.
Shawna helped them out a lot towards the very end of
Grandmas life. She had a lot of talks with her, and was able
to help them as much as she could. Also helped them get into a
nursing home. Which was a great thing. Shawna mentioned
in her talk that Grandma doesn't want us to cry. She didn't
want us to know about the events that happened in her life
at this time. She wanted us to get together as a family, talk,
and to stop contention. She mentioned how Grandma
loves every single one of us and that families are forever.
Dad stood up and told us a little more about the fun events
that happened in grandmas life. Telling us the things that
grandma would say all the time "It's a Great life, if you don't weakin",
"Don't sweat the small stuff". < something I need
to work on. I always sweat the small stuff. As dad
says, I always make a mountain out of an ant hill.
lol! Dad mentioned that Grandma never glorified in
items, and would say that you can't take it with you.
Also something good to always remember.
Dad mentioned Grandma was all about family. She loved that
family was forever, and would always try to
keep the family together. I know how big my
grandmas heart is. She also told me stories
about how she used to take in lot of foster kids.
I believe that so much. She had such a BIG
heart that she accepted everyone. She never
left anyone behind no matter who they were.
I look up to my Grandma. I hope that I can be
just like her, and be forgiving and loving like she was.

Dad I know got that sweet kind spirit from her.
He isn't judgmental and is very helping and goes
out of his way. I know that he got that from
his mom. Which my dad I look up to him as
well. Grandma mentioned to dad that she
wanted him to be a great public speaker,
which he is really good at doing. Daddy Grandma
loves you. I know because she would tell me how
she was very proud of you and the things that
you have been able to do in your life. You are
the son that she always wanted you to be.
You have always been there for them. She loved
you so very much. Keep strong and remember the
things that she taught you, and I can tell you that
I see a lot of her in you. I love you daddy. She sends you her love!
At the begging all the Grand kids stood up and sung "I am a Child of God",
I was touched to see some of the grand kids sing this song. When
they are not active in the church. Brought a smile to my face.
Aubrey and Adam sang Grandma and Grandpas song called "Because of you".
The song was writen back in 1940 something... I was happy to see
that they put the song together so quickly, and to see them sing together
touched my heart. They had never heard this song before at all. They
learned by the notes and pulled it together perfectly over just
the weekend. They did an amazing job.

I then stood up a little after dad and told a little history about
the song that I was going to sing.
Grandma loved the song "O my father". Her mother sang
the song to her in Norwegian, before she would go to bed at night.
It was really hard to sing, because the song reminded me of my grandma.
I used to always sing it to give me comfort, and I'm sure
It will still give me comfort for many years to come.

I soon sang it. Actually had my voice, sang the song, then
felt at the very end Grandma give me a big hug.
I started to tear up and cried. Thank goodness it was
at the end of the song.
I can't express enough how great full I was to know
my grandma. I felt very privileged to sing to her at her
funeral. I was very happy to see the family together.
I was very happy to see people making up and letting
others know that there were no hard feeling against them.
I would know because someone that my Dad cares very
dearly for, came up to me. I appreciated it very much
and things needed to be said.

I have had a really hard time knowing that my grandma
is gone from this earth, but great full to know that I will
see her again. I can't wait till that glorified day when my
grandma and I pick up our talks. I'm sure I will still
be talking to her hear on this earth. I just wont be
able to see her.

I hope to make my grandma proud and do all the things
that she wanted me to do with my time here
on this earth. I want to make her proud in the things
that I do. I hope to accomplish them.
I love you Grandma, you were loved by many. You have touched
many hearts. You will be missed, but know that you are loved.
We will remember in our prayers and our thoughts. We
will carry on your love that you had for others. We
will write your story down and tell it often of the
many great things that you did on this earth. You were
a great example of love and kindness.
God be with you till we meet again.
Love you with all my heart. Daisia!

My Sweet Beautiful Grandma Verna


My beautiful Grandma Verna Died last night
Peacefully last night. I believe it was very hard to take it
all in. I was preparing myself. I felt like her time was coming up.
I am close with my Grandma, she told my dad I was her
favorite because I would call her and visit majority of the time.
She was very loved by me.

When I was 15 I lived with her for a bit. Off and on.
She would let me have the guest room, she would
wake me up early in the morning. Which I thought
was really cute. She lived a much slower pace.
The way that I wish I knew how to do.
Grandma loved the help and appreciated the little things

I would usually go over to her house when I was 16-17 Cleaning
her house out and talking with her, while I had Herbal
Tea and she would have her coffee. She would tell me
stories about her life and the things that I should
stay away from and what to go looking for.
My grandma was wise for her age. When I turned 18 I would
just come over to visit with Grandpa and Grandma.
It was fun to watch them interact with one another.
Funny yet adorable.

I remember leaving to Virgina when I was 19.
I would call her on the phone. The one time that I didn't
like was when she got really really ill. I ended up
getting depressed. I called her every day to the hospital.
Sometimes she wouldn't remember that I had called.
It was really hard on me. I remember coming home.
Visited with her for awhile. I almost didn't want to leave.

When I turned to the age of 20 I would still call her
and tell her how I have been doing and
see her at every outing. Sit by her and we would just talk.
I felt bad that my Uncle Raylin kicked her out of her own
house, due to being very selfish. When I was 21 I took a another leap
for Chicago. Calling grandma at random times to let her know
I was OK! She would always ask if I was dating some one
and if he was a good guy.

Grandma was very unique. She had done things a certain
way. Like drinking warm water from the tap
over and over again. She would make coffee and
have little treats with them. Little tea time.
Grandma loved her kids even her grand kids.
She used to collect dolls. Lots of them.
She told us that once she had passed on
Each grand daughter got to keep one of them,
in memory of her.

Grandma loved to hear people sing.
When I was 22 I came home and saw her at a
reunion. She started to cry to me and told me that she
had fallen again. She told me that she was always
in pain and she didn't like the place where she was living.
I held her hand and stayed by her side for some time.

Grandma soon ended up in the hospital shortly
after dad came out of the hospital with
his mild heart attack. The nurse gave
grandma the wrong pills and she got really sick.
I came straight over with Brant.
I went back and was with Grandma with
Grandpa. She was looking ok.
I stayed by her side. The nurse wanted
her to drink some orange juice to get some
liquids in her. I got her to drink all of it.
It was good to see her awake and talking
with me like we always did.
It was really hard to see her like this.
But I'm happy I was there to help in some way.

I want to thank those who came with me around
Christmas time to sing to my Grandparents.
She was so delighted she talked about it all the time.
How we came over and sang Christmas songs to her.
Her and Grandpa were going though some hard times
and they were so mad at everything. Just un happy.
She was smiling, I will always remember her
beautiful smile.

Grandma was a very special person to me.
I will never ever forget you grandma.
I will never forget our long talks. What you have
taught me. I will never forget how much you loved so
much with all of your heart, and tried to keep up
with everyone in their lives.
Grandma you were a great person. You left an
indent in my heart that I can carry on and share
with my kids all the many many stories.

I want to end with a song that Grandma always
had me sing to her. Because her mom would
always sing it to her before bed. Called 'O my father'

When I leave this frail existence,

When I lay this mortal by,

Father, Mother, may I meet you

In your royal courts on high?

Then, at length, when I’ve completed

All you sent me forth to do,

With your mutual approbation

Let me come and dwell with you.

JJ's Birthday Everyone.


I feel so stupid. I totally forgot JJ's Birthday. Very frustrating.
I Have been so out of it lately. I ended up sick AGAIN!
Strep again... Lets just say that it isn't my year.
JJ, was such a sweet guy. Very much go a good heart.
I have been Best friends with JJ since 2004.
I first met JJ when I was Dating David D.
Kind of interesting how God Gives you angels with out even
thinking about it. He has helped me out so much in
my times of trials. ALWAYS going out of his way to
help me when ever I am in any kind of trial.
I could say that I have been such a great friend to him.

JJ is a Grafic designer, so if anyone needs one, let me know.
He is really good at his job. I see a great future in his pathway.
He can also make you a website if you need one.
I remember last year I tossed him a BIG party but was a
little pricey, but well worth the money and my time.
I would do anything for JJ. A loyal friend that is true
to the end is always a great thing to have.

I hope that JJ had a wonderful Birthday. I was happy
to spend majority of the day with him on such a happy
day. We went to jamba juice and I gave him a healthy
snack. Then went and pigged out on some crab salad
from dicks market place. It was very good.
Then watched Twilight < that was the first time
JJ has never seen that movie. IF you ever see JJ
or have his number. Make sure you wish him a happy
B-late birthday. lol! I can't wait till this coming up week.
I'm taking him out to dinner when I'm all better from
this strep.

He then went home and had dinner with his parents.
Brother Danny and twin brother JOSH.
My goodness...! I have felt like a bad friend.
Not keeping on my game like I usually do.
I have like a fog machine in my head. BLAH!
Well I'm going to run for now.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY JJ!!!!

Anyways... I can't wait till my other ones come in. They should be
really fun to get when they do come.

Easter Sunday



Alright everyone it is easter Sunday.
A Beautiful day at that. I have loved every second of
today. Nice day to be with the family.
I missed church today. I wasn't feeling at my best.
It was fun, because mom and Kenzie came home
from there California trip. It was getting really lonely
with out them there. Kenzie was sleeping by the time
I got out of bed. Mom was tired herself and didn't go down
for a nap until she got the laundry going.

Later mom made funeral potato's, Ham, Hot rolls, green
beans and corn< (Because Adam wanted some corn). OH! I can't forget the orange jello with the pineapple in it. It was a good day. Aubrey and her hubby with her cute two kids came over. My little Niece came up to me and showed me her dress, she looked beautiful as you can tell by these pictures. I was happy to see these beautiful girls over at the house, all dressed up. I felt left out. lol Alysa was coming late so we didn't get to eat till she got there. Which was alright. We were keeping ourselves entertained By the little ones opening their gift from My mom. She bought them cute matching outfits. Which were adorable, with bracelets. It was really nice to sit and visit with the family. Have all my moms girls there. I'm sure Adam felt a little out of place with 7 girls in the house. LOL I'm just kidding. I'm sure he didn't mind. Later after dinner and visiting. I went over to go see my Grandma and Grandpa. They are at a Rest home. I made my grandma some Norwegian Cookies. I've been meaning to see her for some time. I got this great Idea to make her favorite danish desert. Ok, I have to tell you how the night roll played that night because it is kind of funny. My Grandpa is blind and Grandma has dementia and is bounded to her wheel chair. I knocked on the door (I brought my friend Tony with me because he helped me make the Danish desert). It was about 1030PM They are always up super late. Grandma didn't recognize me with my hat on, Grandpa can't see, and we had a screaming match though the door. Grandpa would say "Who is it?" I would say "It's Daisia" and he would reply with "Who?" Finally after five minutes of this. I started to add things like "Lyle's daughter Daisia". I was trying not to laugh, but it was getting kind of funny. Finally Grandpa looked at Grandma and said "Oh! It's just Daisia". They are too cute. Grandma just glowed when she saw me. She had to tell me thank you then added "Daisia is always with a new guy every time she comes to see me" I went bright red, Tony's eyes almost popped out of his head. I didn't want to say no I don't right in front of her. She told us stories about her faster kids, about grandpa's war. They then talked about the farm they used to have. Then bickered about how much money they get from the state, and how they never see it. We talked about the family and how everyone had been doing. Grandpa told me how his back always hurts. They talked about there love for one another, and how they met. Grandma said she didn't like grandpa when she first saw him, and told her mother he was too skinny. So her mom fattened him right up. 45 pounds! wow! Then he went off to the military. I think? It was fun talking about so many things. I could see that grandma was having a good day. Then she told me that my danish desert didn't have any sugar on it. (which I forgot to put on) She then added they were too thick. I liked the ending of her saying "You need to have these with coffee" I was thinking by then it was 1130pm and there was no way that she was getting coffee this late at night. Grandma looked beautiful and happy. Grandpa was chipper and loved the snacks. I hope to find a husband that I can stick by my side. I have been though so many relationships that sometimes I just give up hope then I see them, I want to have there love. I have always looked up to them. They sure have their ups and downs with each other, but they still love each other deeply. He never leaves her side and Grandma never leaves his. They are like the perfect love story. No matter what happens in this life. Stick by the ones that you love the most. Cherish them with all your heart. Give them your all and they will do the same back. Remember bumpy roads come to us, but never give up on them no matter what. Always keep going forward with what ever you are doing in this life. It was nice that Tony got to see that. He has never seen such a happy couple that were old or young. He said when we walked out. "I want that." I said "what do you want". He Mentioned that he wanted there love. To have and to hold tell death do they part. But still love them as time goes on. The greatest thing in life is to love and to be loved in return!

catch up

Aright so I need to update everyone with my life.
Reflection time... If I can
remember everything that has been going on this month.
Sorry I haven't been on a lot. Well I have been busy with
work which is still on going until the end of June. Is
what I have heard. Very sad to leave this place.
I have been working at the Health department,
and I have loved every minute of it. Everyone is so super
sweet and it's been wonderful working with great people.
I will be very sad to leave. Yet, it's been a good experience
over all.

Things have been good in the month of March.
Mom had her birthday. She is still beautiful as ever.
It was fun because she turned 50. WOW! Time sure does
fly by when you are having fun. I was shocked to
see the video that Aubrey made for her. She even posted
on mom's garage "Happy 50th Birthday MOM" < with a picture
of her from College. I was thinking the whole time "Mom is going to
kill you". It was a good turn out over all. Even with the few
embarrassing moment that Aubrey gave her. I still need to
get my mom a gift. DANG IT!

Alright so I ran into someone very random the other
night at a club called Bogies in Clearfield. I go to sing Karaoke.
I NEVER drink!
Need to clarify that to everyone. This is a picture of
Tony. He is a very funny guy that keeps me on my toes lately.
Keeps a smile on my face. I have been so out of it lately. I don't
know what has been up with me. Anyways... Tony came up
to me to save me from this guy that was getting a little to personal
with me. Tony was trying to make conversation, I wasn't really
talking with him, He was trying to make small talk.

He finally got me to talk. When I normally wouldn't give
a guy a time of day at a club or a bar. He told me he was a
great dancer, I didn't believe him and told him to prove it.
So we ballroom danced in the club. It was a lot of fun.
Ever since then we have been hanging out a little more every day.
Very much interesting fun!

Tony Has made me dinner and wants to still see me.
I hope still as friends. I'm just
happy to have a good friends. He doesn't
act the way that he dresses. He should be a prep
boy. I think he would look like a very cute prep boy.
Why do I always attract such interesting men?

Diet Plan!

Ever since I had my stomach scoped my tummy has NOT
been the same. I have packed on weight since then.
So I'm going back to the gym. It never hurts to eat
Healthy and work out at the gym. I think every body needs
to do that. I feel so out of my shell right now.
Who ever wants to do the diet with me is more then
welcome to do so. Just remember to not Over work out.
I would really like to start a challenge and it's for you
to Eat Extra Healthy. Just so you know giving yourself a
sugar treat like M & M's because you lost two pounds
isn't a healthy diet. It just means that you are cheating on yourself.
Don't do that!

If you want to lose weight the best way is remember to eat.
I don't think having a million and one Salads is a healthy diet.
A Healthy diet for example is:
Having a bowl of oatmeal in the morning.
Light snack maybe an Apple.
I like celery and raisins.
Drinking LOTS of water < water is your friend.
Or Green Tea < that is a natural energy and helps you
stay fuller longer.
For lunch have fish or chicken < yummy!

Sometimes it is really hard for people to cut
Sugar items out of the diet completly.
There is a right was and a wrong way of
doing things. If you realize you start putting
Fruits in your diet. You will realize when your body
is lacking Sugar, it will crave the natural sugar
instead of going for that candy bar.

I have also realized that you get more energy
if you cut from all those caffeine product like coca-cola.
It does really nothing for you except give you a
boost of energy then make you feel like crap
the rest of the day. So... Remember to drink
Lots of water.
Some people confuse hunger with thirst.
If your tummy isn't growling you're probably
just thirsty. Try a glass of water and if
you are still having some kind of tummy hunger.
Then Eat. But remember to pick Healthy foods.

When it comes to Exercise. Don't over work yourself
the first time. Make it FUN! Have your I-Pod
or MP3 player. Play while you work out.
Start with a long walk. Then slowly add more and more
to your work out. Before you know it you will be at the
gym for three hours and not even realize it.
lol I'm just kidding! That is just me. I love the gym.
If things get a little hard it's ok. Try, Try, again. You will
get it. As I read No pain no gain. Right?
Just remember to have fun with it.
Take a friend with you, if that is the case.
Maybe they will be good motivators. Ya never know
