FRIENDS

The other night the girls got together for our annual Christmas party. It was a lot of fun as usual. The little boys are all growing up so big...and next year there will be a little girl. I am very lucky to have such good friends and I want each of them to know how much I love them...I know they are all in a different parts of their lives from me but when we get together it is like nothings changed...I love it.

Ally & Lauren
Heidi & Shauna
Kar, Me, and Jess
Ian with the very popular sunglasses...
I wanted them so bad...
but Kar stole them from me...she is going to get payback someday...
All the girls I use to work with took me out to dinner for leaving the branch...they are all so cute and I will miss them!

Poem

About a week ago my cousin past away. It was very unexpected and sad. After she past away my aunt was prompted and lead to a suitcase that she found had a bunch of poems that my cousin had written. On top of all the stuff was one poem that my aunt felt she was meant to find. They read it at her funeral and I loved it so I thought I would share it.

Open your window and let out the stress,
let your body release with the winds caress.
Bring in the light to open your eyes,
nurture the soul before it dies.
Overflow sunshine into the heart,
distribute the warmth like paint to art.
From love, your body will illuminate,
pushing out intolerance, anger, and hate.
If everyone could open the window, look out and see,
what peaceful place this world could be.

Hi Jordan!

I hope you are enjoying my posts :)

Vegas!!/St. George

Last weekend I went to St. George and Vegas with some friends. It was so fun and warm! We stayed at Nate's aunts condo in St. George and went to Vegas for a concert. The concert was a band called Face to Face, which is a 90's punk band, so the crowd was a bunch of drunk retarded 30 and 40 year old men! It was awesome! It's funny to watch how dumb people are. We had a great time though and really enjoyed our mini vacation.
We got a limo ride down the strip for $15...it was so fun. How many times do you get to ride down the strip in Vegas at night in a limo? not very many!
Me, Parker, and Mason in the limo
Me and Nat on the Tram between the casinos
The buildings here are so awesome
This is what the backyard of the condo we stayed at looked like...someday i will retire to a place like this!
In St. George we went up to the rocks and climbed between these rocks that had this tiny tiny gap....it was tight but pretty cool.



We did lots of other climbing, like out of holes and down trees...good times!

Halloween

Emett was Rambo for Halloween so I stole his idea!
Me and my mom the Nun. Funny story....so this little girl came trick or treating to my parents and my mom answered in her nun outfit and I guess when she was leaving she turned to her dad and said 'I thought they were LDS...I thought I smelled smoke in their house'! Funniest thing ever...I guess my mom is a smoking, married Nun! :)
I was Rambo/2pac...don't ask how it turned into that!
My military solute.
We got to dress up at work.

Carving Pumpkins

Just before Halloween we had my nephews come up to my parents and carved pumpkins. I was working so by the time I got up there most of the fun had already happened but I got some good pictures.
My nephews and their pumpkins


Pake designed his own pumpkin but then Papa had to come help make it look right!
Emett drawing on his.
Garet and his...we all called his the Chinese pumpkin cause of its eyes!

Young Single Adult Activity....Sort of!

The other night us girls got together to have some dinner at Costa Vida and that night at Fat Cats was a young single adult activity where they all got to do the activities for free, so the girls pretended they were single with me and we got to go bowling and play some arcade games all for free! It was so fun...It reminded me of the days when I actually enjoyed being single! We missed the rest of you girls!

Since I was the single one...decided to be the pregnant one!


This was at dinner when Shauna and the boys were there...we were sad she left but she has an excuse these days! ;)





I took a picture of the screen cause I put the girls nicknames on there!....I thought it was pretty funny at the time

Our cool prizes we won playing games

Our friendship rings we got!

Salt Lake Day



Me, my mom, and sister took my nephews Pake & Garet on the Front Runner down to Salt Lake for a day and went to Gateway and walked around and ate lunch. This was my nephews first time on the Front Runner and they loved it...for about the first 20 minutes and then they were bored!



They wanted to run through the Olympic water thing...so we stripped em down and let em go.




After Pake was done I gave him a cool mohawk!

2008




Here are a few pictures from the past year. I have mainly just spent time with family and friends and I have gone to quite a few good concerts! The first few pictures repeat itself before it gets to the rest and I don't know how to fix it so you can look at those ones twice!

Sunrise P Ranch

A couple of weeks ago my singles ward went up to the Sunrise P Ranch up in Idaho. It was alot of fun. It was on the Snake River and my parents brought up two of my nephews so I got to hang with them for a couple of days.


Chillin with my boys!


The biggest slide ever that went right into the Snake River, it was a lot of fun.
So everyone keeps telling me I need to start a blog...so here it is! My life isn't that exciting these days but I figure when it does start to be I will already have a blog started. So enjoy my boring blog for now!
