A Good Read

Just wanted to blog about my love for a good book and how thankful I am for creative people out there who put their imaginations to some good use! These are my most recent reads and I loved them!
The third book doesn't come out until August 24, 2010...I hate waiting. I told Jeff I'm not going to start reading a series of books until they are all out!
If you are looking for a good book to read I highly recommend these!

I hear wedding bells!

It's official...they are engaged!

By cute brother asked this cute girl to marry him on Thursday night and we couldn't be happier! All of my family was there...(I called so I could listen in) :o) she was so surprised and had no idea!

We are so happy for you two and I can't wait to have you as a sis Keri! Hope you're ready to be apart of this crazy bunch.

CONGRATS!!!

It's raining it's pouring...

This week it has been non-stop rain and I'm loving it! It's fun to have a change in the weather and I love the rain.

So this week I decided that I am very grateful for umbrellas. They are cute and keep me dry :o)

YAY for rain!!!

Viva Las Vegas

This post is so long over due but I had to post these fun pics and thank my awesome fam for visiting!

Last month my brother Andrew, his girlfriend Keri and my sis Katie all came down to Vegas for a visit. It went by way too fast but it was so fun having them here and I got to meet Keri for the first time (and absolutely loved her)! Jeff had finals coming up so he studied most of the time but the four of just went down to the strip and had some fun. We rode on the roller coaster at the NY NY and I have pictures of that but...I look drunk so they aren't going up. We had a blast on the ride! We really just goofed off most the day and later that night picked Jeffery up and ate at a buffet. Here are a few pics of our fun weekend!

The 4 of us at M&M factory sportin some cool shades

Keri decided to pull a "Buddy the Elf" my darn camera
wouldn't work...hence the painful look on her face :o)

There are some real weirdos out on the strip but we loved this dude! He looked like a statue and when I stood by him to get my pic taken he says
"hold very still...I pretend I kiss you"




Love my lil' sis!

So cute!

Fish face!

Wore 'em out with all of our fun!

Thanks so much guys for coming and staying with us!

We love you so much and loved having you here!

Happy Birthday Diane

We love you and miss you!

5 years ago...

Woo Hoo...we made it to 2010! I can't believe that it has been 10 years since 2000 and all of the Y2K junk. I remember celebrating the year 2000 and as the clock struck midnight waiting for something disastrous to happen. But here we are a whole decade later and what joy those 10 years have brought to me! (I feel like a little old lady sitting here reflecting up my life)

But the real reason for this post is to reflect upon New Years Eve 2004...

Jeff and I had been on a few dates but were just starting to crush :o) (I love that part of relationships) My friend Karli and I were chillin at my house with not much planned...Pace and some of his friends were on their way to my house from Salt Lake and I was really hoping that Jeff would call me. He never did...so we called him. Karli ended up talking to him and convinced them to come over. We played a murder mystery game...and if I remember right we recorded the whole game? (Karli do you know what happened to that?) Any way we had a blast and all was well! As midnight roles around new years kisses are being given and someone says that Jeff and I should kiss...AWKWARD!!!

Not exactly how I would have envisioned it but non the less...and yes they took a picture! I was mortified at the time but laugh every time I think about it now. It probably would have taken him months to do if he hadn't been pressured by our friend. So thanks guys for giving him the motivation to finally do it!
Best decision I ever made!!!! I love you Jeffy!

A Happy and Healthy New Year to everyone!
