My Favorite Ride in the World










When a group of us decided to go to the Utah state fair, I was a little sad. I kept thinking of the years spent at the Puyallup fair. The days of scones, doo doo birds, cotton candy, big button pictures, elephant ears, and let us not forget the Zipper ride. It turns out the Utah state fair is a quarter of the size and lacks the scones, elephant ears and a few other essentials, but with the right group of people it is a blast. The Zipper was my first and last ride of the night, which added to the complete picture. Puyallup will always be my favorite fair, but the Utah fair is a nice consolation.

Adventures at the Watson's



It's time to say good-bye to those loveable kiddies and those crazy cookie parents. It almost feels like I'm moving away ~ far away. My new condo is really just on the other side of town, but it feels like I am moving off the continent. This morning when I woke up there was a little tug at my heart strings when the secret agents didn't sneak into my bedroom, or when I went to get breakfast and little lady wasn't screaming, "Nananananana . . nana. .nanana." until I gave her my undivided attention. I have to admit that there is never a dull moment. . . whether it's a dance party, little boys wearing my high heels in their birthday suits (carrying Jesus, "Come follow my naked self and Jesus!"), or a little dispute between the Cleavers. I've officially moved into my 10th location since moving to Provo 5 years ago. I have sworn off moving FOREVER. . . . Well, unless someone shows up with a fatty diamond and a marriage proposal I'm set for at least 5 years. If any of ya'll ever have a dull moment stop by the Watsons and enjoy the adventures. . . for now enjoy a couple fun pictures. Also, thanks to Watsons for making me feel a part of your amazing little family for my drive by stay, I love and appreciate you guys so much.

A Legacy Left Behind

Les McGuire
"It's not about how long we're here, it's about what we do while we're here"
Ray Hooper
When I started my blog, I was clueless about what I want to accomplish with it. Yes, I wanted to share my memories with my friends, my family and even my future family. But I still felt as if my blog was lacking. I have been blessed in my life to have experienced a lot in the short time of my current existence and was fortunate enough to befriend two great men, Ray Hooper and Les McGuire, who died in a plane crash June8th of 2006. I have been wanting to do this post for quite a while and have been fighting with my blog on posting things and tonight I won. Above is a video from a Legacy Event Engenuity had July of last year to honor the Legacy that Ray and Les left behind. I feel such a stewardship and responsibility, especially to those I care about, to share this message because of the way I have I allowed it to change my life. I hope that you take something away from the video, however small it may be, as I did from knowing these men.

When you got it ~ you got it. . . .

So who know that when a little lady had to use the restroom that a guy from across the room would be checking out her hot bootee. Yep you read that right. . .that's me. When I returned to my table there was this little note waiting for me. I guess when you got it ~ you got it and the note says I got it. :)
