Posts???

Sorry no posts for the past little while. And there probably wont be more to come for about a month... I am not one to just write info but here I am! Anyways, I have stuff to post just haven't had time. I am leaving for a cruise on Saturday and then the day after I return I start testing for a new system at the credit union working 60 hours a week for a few weeks...so no computer time for me! I will have a lot to catch up on at the first of October...see you then! :)

Funny Story!ll

So I have the funniest nephew. His name is Pake...spend more than 10 minutes with him and you will know what I am talking about. I live in my parents basement in their old family room so as you can see from below its not really a bedroom. So Pake walks down there the other day and says 'This is more like a House of Fashion than a bedroom." Maybe you had to be there but it was so freakin funny! I thought I would show pictures of my room so you could tell where that came from.

I miss Palm Trees!

I miss my Palm Trees!! I miss the beautiful blue ocean, shimmering white sandy beaches, and amazing green Palm Trees.... I have a friend who is in California right now and she knows how much I love Palm Trees, so she sent me a text saying she was sitting under one right at that moment...Jealous! Little over a month and I will be back in the Caribbean enjoying my beautiful blue water, shimmering white sandy beaches, and amazing green Palm Trees....

Design Blog

I just made me a design blog. The link is on the right, check it out. Not much there yet but more to come! mymjdesigns.blogspot.com

Summer Randomness...

Oh the Joy's of Summer! Here is a bunch of things I have been up to lately (I believe most of the pictures speak for themselves so I wont explain each one!):
First enjoying the streets of Ogden. Ogden is really cool...it is right under Salt Lake for me. These horses along the street are fun to take pictures with. We wanted to ride them but it was to light outside and didn't want to get caught...soon though!


Next was the bike ride that lasted 20 minutes and turned into a hike. You can't be by Waterfall Canyon and not hike it! I am getting use to this bike thing so I am not so good and can't last to long!




Last is my Boys! Oh how I love them! The last picture is Garet trying to be a dog and getting the birds wing...it was funny stuff.

StAcAtIoN!!!

So last weekend was suppose to be our annual camping trip but life happened and we didn't do it this year. Most of us, excluding my brothers, where able to get the time still off so we had what we call a Stacation...a stay at home vacation! It was nice...the luxury of being at home but no work! So on Thursday we went swimming at the North Ogden pool (which I forgot my camera, hence the no pictures), then later that night we got together had a BBQ, played some baseball (to the little boys request), and had a bonfire with smores. Then on Friday we went Fishing @ the Barker Fish Farm and then went to a park and had lunch. Then Saturday we went on a hike up to North Fork...this was my favorite. It was perfect weather & so beautiful. I took so many pictures that day...I wish I could put them on here (I will probably put lots on facebook or I am thinking of doing a design blog) I love taking pictures of the awesome things in this world! Anyways...that was the Stacation...highly recommended for all!

The baseball teams...I am pretty sure the girls won!

Roastin Smores

Getting ready for fishing...which they caught a lot of fish.

Pake's fish always seemed to come off the hook right as he pulled them out of the water so he always had to try catching them with his hands, it was pretty entertaining!

The hike:

This was the tree my Dad carved on back when him and my Mom were dating...about 30 years ago. It said Dave, and then a heart, RJ. You can still see the Dave even though the rest has grown out...I thought it was cool.

My little monkeys!

This was right before I dived into the river :)

My 24th Birthday

So I was trying to avoid my birthday this year but my friends ended up tricking me and surprising me with a little birthday fiesta. First they took me to P.F. Changs, which was so so yummy. Then we went to Keys on Main. I hate getting in front of people so I told them not to tell them it was my birthday but they ignored me. They requested a song and hours went by and they didn't play it so I thought I was off the hook. Then at like 11 he pulled it out and I had to go on stage and dance and I pretty much looked like a freak...hope nobody gets a hold of Natalie's video! Other than that it was a good night!

Me & Shyla being animals in the cave...:)...this is what happens when you have time to spare.
