Happy Birthday Jasmine

My baby turned 9 years old on July 28th. WOW, I can't believe she is 9!! So, she had a few friends over for a sleepover. We had pizza and we took the girls to see G-FORCE in 3D.....That movie was so dang cute. The girls were all very well behaved. Then on the next day when the girls left, Jenna and Jasmine went to California with my mom and dad. My dad had a Dr. appt and they were also picking up my nephew Brandon to come back to Utah for a few weeks.















Hair Coloring

Jessica has been staying at our house for over a week and her plans are to move in with us permanently, I will update in a later post...YIPPI!!! So, I do not have a 14 year old girl in the house, mine are all younger. So, it's pretty cool to see the things a older young your lady enjoys. Today was the 1st time I ever helped color hair. I know, I'm old school but I don't color my hair either. How would I know?? So I lent a helping hand squirting the coloring solution in her hair.....it turned out so well and she is just a beautiful young lady and we are so lucky to have her in our house.

4th of July


We spent the 4th of July at Little Sahara Sand Dunes. We camped at a different location this time. It was so nice and had running toilets OH'MY! The kids had such a great time riding and our friends the Myers joined us too. We love the Sand Dunes. In early July is usually the last time we go for a while cause it gets so dang hot!!




Touch-Down TIME #26

This is my favorite time of the year when I get to see my son play football. I'm such a proud mom. Jonathan is a sophomore @ Timpview HS. His position is Running back, he has picked to play JV this year. His jersey number is 26- I have posted some pictures from Price Camp where they had a scrimmage against Bingham HS. Jonathan made a TOUCHDOWN!!



Pioneer Weekend


WOW, what a weekend full of a great family and wonderful friends! We started off the weekend by boating at Deer Lake most of the day. Justin, Sara, Britin, Becky(Sara's sister) Andrew(D's hubby) Deborah(LCC office mngr) Jessica and all my kids! We had a blast boating! After we finished up boating we headed to Heber, for the night, with our friends Andrew and Deborah. They have a beautiful cabin!! WOW, it reminded Eric and I how bad we want a cabin. We BBQ'ed hamburgers and then headed to the Heber demolition derby. OMG, I LOVED it! This was so much fun and can't wait to do it again. Thanks Andrew and D for a wonderful weekend!

To my good friend Melody and CONGRATS RICKY!

This is a tribute to one of my bestest friends, Melody! She hired me @ Hansen's, in San Diego and she was the manager over the payroll dept. She basically taught me everything I know and I tribute all my work success to her. I have known her for over 8 years and she has truly inspired me. She has a very kind spirit and see good in all things. What a wonderful mentor and friend she has been over the years! We continue to stay in touch often but not as often as I would like.

I would also to say CONGRATS to her son Ricky who graduated high school last week. WAY TO GO RICKY! May you be great in ALL that you do!!

I love you Mel!!





mel and her honey!
