A Great Idea For How To Spend That Tax Return Money

I find that the best way to crush on a celebrity is to get family support of the crush. For example, my best friend in Jr. High had a crush on a Christian rapper (a white one no less) named Toby McKeehan. She loved him. She had a framed picture of him that she kissed goodnight. Her family was totally on board. They even hunted down where his family lived and vacationed near there and managed to get an invite to Easter dinner.

Crazy right? Of course if she had ended up with him, we would have all thought they were genius. But she didn't. She married a guy she met on the Internet, and they are waiting on baby number four.

Tonight Jessica and I were talking about a fellow blogger, Busy Bee Lauren. Maybe you've heard of her. She's way more popular then me. She's married to a guy she refers to as Tedward. I asked Jessica if that was his real name and she speculated that Lauren has blended her husband's name with that of her celebrity crush Edward Cullen. Genius, Lauren. How could I have not thought of this? From now on I should refer to Matt as Mrentt. Doesn't quite roll off the tongue like Tedward, but I can work with it. So thank you, Jessica (and Lauren), for supporting my celebrity crush.

Matt Mrentt has been very supportive as well. This weekend at the waterpark, we saw a woman with multiple tattoos of Johnny Depp in various roles. There was an Edward Scissorhands tat, a Captain Jack tat and possibly one from 21 Jump Street. As Mrentt and I were discussing this amazingness, he said, "You should get a few Trent Edwards Tattoos."

He is so right. Trent has many different looks.

The Faux Hawk
And who could forget the style that sparked hairgate 2009: The Shag

I could fill my whole back with Trent head shots. Well, maybe I would put them somewhere I could see them so I could admire them on a regular basis, but I think I'll skip this look.


A special thanks goes out to my love, Mrentt (I think I'm getting the hang of this) for suggesting the new ink and also for accompanying me to the Tattoo parlor and holding my hand while I get another man's face tattooed on my body. You rock.

I cannot comment on Mrentt because it makes me want to pee my pants laughing. And I reeeeeeaaaaaaaally need to go to sleeeeeeeep.

Woah, talk about a supportive family. That's almost scary. In my family all you got when some one learned you had a crush was mockery, which I suppose explains a lot.

My family calls my fiance Dandrew, because my two sisters are married to Dylan and Daniel. Conformity is the name of the game.

Hey... you could get several Trent tattoos if you get little ones on each of your fingers. Then you can always see them easily too.

Trent could then help you with everything you do. And, in the winter, you could pretend that you are moisturing Trent instead of just keeping your hands from cracking and bleeding in this crazy dryness..

If you look up "true love" in the dictionary, there is a link to this post beside it.

What a loving husband! I don't think I could take the pain of a tatoo.

Thanks for stopping by. Happy party planning.

We have a young man visiting us from Utah. He's a big sports fan so yesterday we took him to the UNM bookstore to buy some Lobos shorts (they were closed - it's Spring Break), hung around the Isotopes field taking pictures of us alone in the stands, and ended up at the mall to buy clothing from Fanzz and Champs or whatever it's called...

Anyway, we were discussing various sporting highlights of the year (such as the lady soccer Lobos yanking BYU's hair, etc.) So, I decided to impress him with my Trent Edwards knowledge. It pretty much consisted of his concussion and how hot he was. Needless to say, my young, hip, sports friend was impressed!

My daughter said she was a Denver Bronco's fan because she likes their colors. Ha! Amateur!
