Rifreakindamndiculous!

RIFREAKINDAMNDICULOUS! This is my new word! Don't judge. This is the story of how my new favorite word came to be. My friends talked me into going country dancing thursday night. It was all fun and games until I got to my car and found my drivers side window broken and my purse missing. Idiots! It has been such a hassle. I am so thankful for Cami and Luke who helped me out that night. It was late and we went back to camis house and while cancelling all my credit cards this awesome word just came out. I think it is genius!

Brides to be

In the last few months I have thrown bridal showers for a couple of my best friends. Jessie got married in March and she was so beautiful. We had a fun shower for her earlier that month. Last weekend, I threw a shower for my friend Brittani, and she is getting married next month. I am so very excited for these two, but at the same time the selfish me comes out and is a little sad. My single friends are diminishing! haha. Its all good though. They have found themselves good catches. I hope I can find me one of those. So happy for both of you!

Spring Break 2012: MOAB

April 5th - 8th

We haven't had a family vacation in a long time. We had everyone but Sunni on the trip. I wish she could have come but it was fun to be with everyone else. We all met up in Green River and stayed there. I have been to the arches before but it was when I was really little and I didn't remember it, so it was fun to do something that I didn't remember. 

Thursday: We went to goblin valley. I remember coming here when I was younger. It was fun to play around and to plank some of the rock formations. We celebrated Dakota's birthday with cupcakes!

Friday: We went to see the arches. It was really windy and cold but it was fun to hike around. The arches are beautiful and huge. We hiked up to the delicate arch which was really cool. 

Saturday: We went to an old ghost town that is in Sego canyon. We saw some petroglyphs which was cool. We then drove the canyon that runs along the colorado river that puts you into Moab. We hung out at the river and had lunch. We then went to Dead Horse Point. Beautiful view!

Sunday: My cute parents set up an easter egg hunt in the back of the hotel parking lot. Then we headed home. 

Holidays 2011

I love this time of the year. So much going on and I get to spend time with my amazing family. I usually am not a fan of halloween but I had fun carving pumpkins with my friend Andrew.

Thanksgiving was a little different this year. Not very many people around this year. Sunni flew in which was awesome. Sunni and I got into a pie making kick and made pumpkin, squash, key lime, banana cream, and the best was our pecan pie. This was our first time really making the pies and they turned out awesome. Even though it was just a small portion of my family, it was good time. I am so very thankful for everyone in my family.

Christmas is my favorite holiday! We went to temple square a few days before Christmas. It was freezing but it was fun to see the lights. One of the reasons I love Christmas so much is because of the  many traditions that I grew up with and that I love. A few of my favorite traditions are recreating the nativity in the barn, homemade orange juice and omelets Christmas morning, and staying in pajamas all day long. We had everyone around this Christmas! It was great.

After Christmas, one of our traditions is to go out shooting. This year we went out to Grantsville and had so much fun!
