COLORS!

So my friend Annie that I meet when we were roomies down in Provo has gotten me to enjoy the music and entertainment of COLORS quite a bit. Now here are these three high school buddies who started a band and have ran with it. Now they have families and have "retired" from the music industry. But they have "come out of retirement" a few times now for a concert. Oh what a great idea! The other week I went with Annie, Christian and Alisha to their latest concert. There are many great parts to a COLORS concert....




As you can see.....










But I think I would have to say that one of the best parts is when Brian does his rap! He takes words that are yelled out from the audience and will make up a rap right there.
I have been trying to attach that video now for two days but can't....SORRY! I will work on it and you will see if it works or not!

Leave it up to the sister-in-laws

It has been great! Three months ago Aarons sister had her second cute little girl. Her middle name is Marie, but they got their birth certificate and it's Marci. I don't see any need to change it. But I don't always get my way. It's great having them close so that I have a baby to snuggle.

Then just over a week ago Aaron's other sister had her 4th cute little boy. Once again it's great that my basis are being covered by the sister-in-laws in the baby department. They aren't as close to go visit and snuggle but I am sure I will find my way up there to do so.

Oh they are just so cute I want to squeeze them!

St. George Temple

I had that chance to go down to St. George to be with my friend when she entered the temple for the first time. It had been a long time since I had seen Krystal so it was great to see her and see her in the temple for that matter. What a great expereance to have. I love being in the temple with close friends and family, those who mean a lot to you. Congratulations Krystal! And thank you so much for inviting me. It was great to see you and to see your family!

Hold strong little root...

While Aaron was gone on his two week motorcycle ride we got a nice wind storm...I had to take proof to show him before I went out to push those trees back up. HA! There was no "pushing" them back up, I would have had to stand out there and hold them. They are upright now. We had to do the whole stake then to poles things. CRAZY WIND we get here in Highland!

Phoenix!

I just returned from a wonderful trip to Phoenix for my 10 year class reunion. Now I am not saying that the reunion it self was the best but there were many parts of my trip while in Phoenix that I quite enjoyed.
To start it off I decided to hold a party at my parents house so I could see all those that I truly wanted to see which weren't going to the reunion. So we had a big group over and I thoroughly enjoyed myself. It was great being able to see so many of you. It's been quite some time since I have seen some of you.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR TAKING THE TIME AND COMING! (it's always nerve-racking to put on a party and worry about people coming and even having fun)



I have many more photos, not the best but if any of you are interested let me know. I would love to forward them on to you. Thanks again!

On Friday I was able to meet up with two of my friends that we have started a tradition together. So way back when I worked at Life Uniform my manager Connie and I would love to order lunch from Macayo's. So now every time that I come into town we meet at Macsyo's with Sue Lavon and enjoy our lunch. I LOVE the baja sauce from there, that is what I go for. It is always great to see them.

Saturday was the big class reunion. Now a few of you have asked for a complete update on how the night was. Really it was okay. I don't know what I was expecting but I am glad I went and I don't think I will be attending many more of those. We will have to keep up the family get together that we had over at my parents house. That was MUCH more fun to me. Darcy and I went over together and I was able to see a few good friends from high school.

To view the photos and even order photos from the photographer that was there that evening go to www.freezframfoto.com you will then click on reunions and then our high school name and enter the password (it's our school mascot) and enjoy load of fun!




Then on Sunday I had a friend come visit me with her extreamly cute daughter. Jen and I worked together at the Preschool many years ago. It was great to see her and Bella and catch up with them.

Okay how has seen Mamma Mia? Way cute (yes cheesy) movie. I went and saw it on Sautrday with my mom and dad. It was a lot of fun to be able to spend time with them. Had time to relax and visit. I was also able to go with my mom out to my dads office and see where he works and also go to lunch with him. I really enjoyed it. Thank you Mom and Dad.

Happy Birthday to me!

That time of year has come and gone again and I have gotten another year older. What happened to the times that you looked forward to getting older and having your birthday?
The birthday celebration started off Wednesday night when my friends took me to see Brain Regan. We had a lot of fun and can I tell you that man is so funny. I had the privilege to see him the next night too. Aaron and I had bought tickets before my friends surprised me with tickets to go with them, but like I said, he is so funny it was great to see him twice. So Thursday night Aaron and I went with some friends of ours. I had a lot of fun and had some good laughs.















It continued onto Friday, the real birthday....I didn't have to work Friday and I was able to spend the day how I wanted to. I started off the day by getting a pedicure which is always so relaxing. After that I then met up with my friend Missy and we had lunch.


I then went over and spent sometime with my sister in law and two very cute niece's and did a little shopping with them.
When Aaron got home from work, he took me out to eat at my favorite place....Texas Roadhouse. YUMMY!
Overall it was a great day! Just got to exclude that getting older part. That is tough but we all seem to get over it.
Thank you everyone for the birthday wishes, cards, phone calls....EVERYTHING!
I have great family and friends!
Love you all!

Lake Powell at last....

You would think that with growing up in Arizona and traveling to Utah through Page, we might have stopped and at least stood on the beach of Lake Powell but that never happened. Now after 28 years of my life I finally made it there.

Aaron and I spent 4 days in Powell with my friend and her husband. (yes she is my coworker too, but she is a friend and that is the most important part.) We had a great time and got quite lucky when I came to weather. We were able to sit on the beach where we camped without any neighbors and watch some amazing lightning storms followed by some beautiful rainbows.










Just sitting on the beach watching the waves, lightning, rainbows come and go....it's just so beautiful and amazing to watch the world work and SOOO RELAXING!!

We did attempt the whole water skiing things but yeah, it didn't work so well for us. We both tried and almost got up but, that is as far as it took us. To bad we are not pros like those that we were with.

That would be Steve...Pro
And that is Janet the Pro
Yep here is the amateur...closest I got to getting up.
and if you look hard through the water, you will see Aaron almost up.

I got to thinking about it and I think the last time that I tried to water ski was in 7th grade when we went to Bartlet Lake for Dusty's Birthday Party. WOW! how the years go by.


As I would wake up every morning I had the most beautiful view out our tent. I would sit there for a good hour plus and watch the sun come up over the mountains and the lake. One morning I finally convinced myself to grab the camera and take some pictures even though I knew it would wake Aaron up. (it's through the mesh so it's not the best but it's still beautiful to me)



We took a day trip and went to Rainbow Bridge. That is such a beautiful and spectacular site.


We had such a fun time and look forward to our next trip back to Lake Powell.
Thank you Janet and Steve!
