Whats In a Name?

So its only Tuesday. Good Lord I feel like its already Friday, but no its just Tuesday. Life has been great lately I really can't complain too much. I have this thing where I give people nick names. Some are a little more... odd then others but they, it happens. With this blog there's going to be lots of stories and people so I thought a good first post would be to introduce the main stars of my blog...

The Gypsy Michelle

Meet my Biological Mother Michelle... Shes like 5'10" but always wears heels so she's taller than me. She enjoys running ridiculous amounts of miles, eating cinnamon bears, frosting, and carrot cake. She also finds joy in listening to Cher and watching Down Town Abbey.


The Fat Man aka Steve-O

Meet my Biological Father Steve... He's the Gypsy's tall dark and handsome lover. He enjoys watering his lawn as well as watching YouTube videos on his iPad. When he grows up he wants to have a Corgi and live on a farm with cows.

Baby Brother/Bronny Boy
My younger brother Bronson... He's by far the favorite child by a long shot. He was an All American football player in high school, went on a mission, married his wifey in the Temple... basically your cookie cutter Mormon boy. Oh and he believes in the Megladon Shark.

Corby`

My younger brother Corbin... He's 6'10" and weighs probably the same of me. He lives in Korea on an LDS mission. In his spare time he likes to play with knives he buys at the Asian gift shops and dancing better than most girls I know. He's my best friend basically. He is notorious for wearing a speedo, bow tie, and a fedora at all times. 

Wiener Dog

My baby sister Daryl... Shes my go to girl who I would do anything for! She has an odd obsession with Polar Bears and Bacon. By odd I mean its all she talks about and thinks about. Bacon and Bears. One time she got her finger chopped off but they sewed it back on. 

Dev
My baby brother Devin aka Daryl's twin brother. Devin finds joy in playing xbox and taking selfies with my dog Klaus. He has 3 different bedrooms and manages to make each one a complete disaster. Personally thats talent in my eyes. 

Porsche
Porsche just turned 4 and is my cancer kitty. When I was diagnosed I went and bought her because I knew the Gypsy couldn't say no. Who just says no to a cancer kid like really though? Porsche is a total diva and is the boss of the house. She spends her days lounging on the love sack and drinking out of the toilet.

Bella

Isabella is my almost 1 yr old St Bernard. I bought her out of the influence of Steph (shes coming up) because we love dogs and all animals for that matter. Bella is pushing 110lbs and is the sweetest girl ever. She sleeps next to me every night and loves the water. She also loves to watch Tv with me at night. 

Klaus (rhymes with mouse)

Niklaus is my 4 month old malamute/timberland wolf mix boy. I bought Klaus because Bella needed a friend. He was kind of a hellion at first but he's turning out to be a great boy. He listens good and is FINALLY potty trained. His favorite thing to do is give kisses and cuddle. He enjoys drinking out of the toilet and stealing Bella's toys.

Hill

My cousin Hillary! Before I tell you how amazing she is, just know she's super mom. Like The Gypsy is Super Mom 1.0 and Hillary is Super Mom 2.0+. Hillary has 3 little girls who are the most precious funniest little girls. Makaela, Thea, and Ella. As if thats not enough she also has 3 little boys. Triplet boys. Did I mention she has 6 kids under 10 yrs old?!?! Exactly. Super Mom. Shes always been in my life since I can remember and showed me how to be a good cousin and has been an even better role model. I'd say a third of my cancer stories as well as the funnest times in my life come from hanging out with her and her kids. 

Teph
Stephanie Vermunt-Seaborn is one of people who I am fondest of in this world. Steph is a Canadian and is probs my favorite followed by her brother in law Dave. We played at BYU together. We conquered the Fudruckers 1lb cheese burger. At the end of the day Steph and I have a common love for food and our dogs. 

Chookie Lover
Ashley has been one of my best friends since my parents moved me to Provo. We have been through it all... stupid cheating boyfriends, camping, ER trips... you know the hard stuff in life when you're in high school. Sure do love her and her lover Boo Boo Bear (Aaron).

Krystin Marie
Krystin has been a great addition to my life! She coaches softball at UVU. I moved into a condo with her and her teammates a little over a year ago and since then I have learned so much about softball. I learned what a grand slam really means, that the term OKC isn't just the team Kevin Durrant plays for, and that I swing a softball bat like a girl.


Well... These people will probably be mentioned the most throughout my blog. All these people are the foundation to my life and have made me who I am today. Given I'm not perfect by any means but I mean, I did manage to acquire some good qualities from each of them and not to mention countless stories... 

Love you guys!
Happy Tuesday. This post is distracting me from watching game film and the 5A state basketball tournament live feed. 



My NEW blog...




Hello everyone... First off let me just say, I have really missed blogging. Many of you know and for those who don't know, I have another blog that's all about this one time when I had cancer. Its a great blog if you're ever bored go check it out, but I needed a blog where I could talk about every day stuff like the weather, basketball, why my dog sleeps in the tub, why my cat drinks out of the toilet, you know the little stuff. So here is my new blog! So to start off here's an update on my life...
  • I graduated from BYU last fall
  • I currently the assistant girls basketball coach at Timpview High School 
  • I also work full time for a drilling company as their professional phone answering lady and book keeper
  • I have two dogs and a cat who I refer to as my children
  • And lastly, I lately spend my days working, doing P90X and playing basketball every spare second I can...
Well thats really it. My life isn't as exciting as it used to be but I miss blogging! I was at Days Market the other day and was asked why I haven't blogged in a while because the lady missed my funny stories about my family and life. So, I'm apologizing now to my family and friends now because I  will probably end up sharing some really funny stories about you guys on here. I'm working on my first post right now... its seasonally appropriate so be excited!

** Quick Side note... if you're from Utah come see my girls play Wednesday night at SLCC 4:10 against Skyline!!

Have a great rest of your week everybody! I know its only Tuesday which sucks but its ok the weekend is almost here!
