Never a Dull Moment

Yes it is another post about Mylo. Sorry guys, but until I have children to post about this is what your going to get & it was too funny so I wanted to share it w/ all of you :)

Yesterday I was using the bathroom in our bedroom when I realized I needed TP aka Toilet Paper, so I hollered to Mike to get me some Toilet Paper. Well a few minutes later I heard Mike yell, "Call for Mylo". So I did, and here came this little doggy running w/ something bouncing on the ground behind him. He had a really scared look on his face & kept looking back to see what was going on then I saw what was causing all the confusion...A roll of Toilet Paper!! Mike had tied it up to his leash. It was soo funny!! So instead of using the Toilet Paper right away I opt'd to take a pic because it was too cute!!
This doesn't quite capture how funny it was but at least you'll get the idea :)

Where Has the Time Gone???

Ok, so I'm a wee bit behind in updating my blog but lots of fun things have been going on :) First off last weekend I hooked up my friend Brett w/ a Cute girl from work, Ashlee. Yes I arranged the Infamous Blinde Date!! But Mike & I tagged along in hopes to not make it as weird, because going out with a married couple on a blinde date Always makes things less awkward. But I have to say it was Alot of fun!! We went to dinner & then to Hee Haw Farms over here by our house. We went down the Hay slide, rode the hay ride to the haunted forest & I forgot how scared & jumpy I can be but I was quickly reminded of that as I was the only one screaming most of the time. Mike definately got a kick out of that! Then I was forced to watch the Grudge with them (which I hate...but in hopes that this would lead to snuggling for my hook-upee's I agee'd) It was fun & I think they had a really good time too so...here are some pics of the fun date :)


Then Saturday, Mike & I went to the REAL Soccer game. Mike loves soccer so I have grown to enjoy it as well...well atleast in person & not on TV. They just opened the new Real soccer stadium & so we had to check it out & let me tell ya it is pretty cool!! And Real Won!!! There isn't much of a story to share here but just some pics that I took (& we are definately better kissers than it would portray in that picture)



This past week I got to go to Pheonix for work & attend some events & finally meet many of the faces that I work w/ daily over the phone & through email. Well, the part that got me excited is that I got to see my brother & his family. They live in Mesa & I had yet to ever be to their place. It was fun seeing his kids & getting some one on one time with them :) Their little girl Oakley is probably one of the funniest kids I know & definately knows how to light up a room w/ her huge smile & those Big eyes!! Well, I also got to see some cousins that I probably hadn't seen in 4 yrs & take small trips down memory lane of our good ol' family reunions (that is my cousin, Heidi, w/ me in the pic on the bottom right)

It was fun & I'm glad they let me come impose on their evening (even if I did have to cram my not so small hips in between two carseats...;) ). And the weather was GORGEOUS so that was definately a delight!!

(sorry Becca, it would appear I didn't get any pictures w/ you :( )


And one Last thing because I thought it was soo funny! When I got home from AZ, Mylo came running to me wagging his tail and all with a BOW over his left ear! Yes, Mylo is a BOY and he had a Bow over his ear. Hmm...for a husband that hates it when I dress up mylo sure isn't above putting bows in his hair. Hmmm... Ok so the story is Mike had to take Mylo to the groomers while I was gone & when he went to pick him up he had a bow on his head & Mike thought it was pretty funny so he kept it on him for 2 days until I got home to show me. I will have to say it was pretty cute, but we got it off right after I got home but now I'm sad that I don't have a pic :( Next Time!! Thanks honey for taking care of our kid while i was away :)

Fun w/ the Fam & Friends

So when my family comes to town it is quite the Fiasco (sp?)! For one no one lives very close to us so when they come they stay for the whole weekend but don't worry We Love It!! I mean come Saturday night it appeared that a tornado had hit my house & I've become quite the clean freak so it makes a little bit nervous but Other than that is it pure Fun!!! I took a TON of pictures this weekend so I tried to condense it as much as I could (so some of the pics may be pretty small but I think they are all so much fun so if you want to see them bigger, just click on the collage and it will expand)

Well, my parents were in town because Tyson, my little bro, had a golf tournament in Heber this week so they decided to make it a longer stay & go to the BYU game w/ us on Saturday and so my little sis and her family decided to come up as well for the weekend. We had soo much fun. Friday night we went to Park City to see my mom & dad first because that is where they were staying for the golf tournament & we got some Grubb then went hot tubbing at their hotel. It was really cute because we decided to just walk across the street & since the weather decided to drop like 20 odd degrees & my sister lives in St. George & apparently they don't believe in coats in St. George, her precious little girl didn't have a coat!! (only teasing ya Amber) So to keep her warm we bundled her up in Mike's jacket (see pics below)! It was soo funny because this little girl does not hold still for anyone, but the second we zipped her up she held perfectly still until we got her out :) Well here are some fun pics of this cute little bundle of joy!! We sure do love this girl & since we have no children yet we pretty much claim her as our own when she's in town!! And Mylo thinks she's pretty great too (seriously...they have so much fun together). And Paige even said my name!! She waited until just before they were to leave but she did it & now I really know I am her FAVORITE Aunt :)




On Saturday we went to the BYU game!! The weather had us all expecting the worst so we bundled up tight, brought lots of blankets and headed to what could have been our last days...well needless to stay it was chilly but not as we had expected! We quite enjoyed ourselves & were grateful there was no snow/rain/wind to distract us from the game. But who would have known that all the pics I took, took up more of my time than me actually watching the game...Oopsy ;) It was fun though and of course BYU WON!! 21-3! Also my cute friend Brittany even joined us!! I'm so glad you could come Britt!!


You know we never had a dull moment this weekend! Even when we weren't at the game or hot tubbing we always had family and friends around and I just LOVED it!! Amber's friend Megan came over to hang out that afternoon along w/ my friend's Becca & Nate (we had some finalizing to do for our Big trip to Costa Rica!!) Then after the game Mike's parents dropped by (they were in town for a reception) and of course Brittany hung out & my old friend Brett Devine from High School dropped by as well!! We ate, we laughed, we cried (well not really), we remeninced, and of course we PLAYED!! Our friend's Tam & Dane were nice enough to let us borrow their Rock Band....speaking of which I think I told Tam we would take back to night...anyways, it was Alot of Fun!! Thanks Guys!!!


Well, since I always tease Amber for giving a play by play when things happen I better end this now before she has something to get me back with :) But hopefully you can see what a fun time we had!! Thanks to all for visiting!!! You are welcomed back again & again & again & again :)

Animal Cruelty...I think not :)

Ok so it is no secret that I like to dress up Mylo (wait til you see his Halloween costume) & Sunday was a pretty cold day so I felt he needed to wear his jacket while we went on our walk. Before actually leaving for the walk I thought he should wear his Hoodie and let me tell you he is Soo cute w/ his hoody on but I do not think he was a fan! Well, I had to take some pics of the fun & share what a cute little doggy I have :) And what a good sport he is!


The top left corner is my Favorite one! But I love how it looks like he is winking at ya in the pic on the right :)

(and don't worry he has a haircut appointment scheduled)

Happy Birthday Mom!

This Tuesday is Mike's Mom's Birthday!! So first off I would like to give a Shout Out to her for her Special Day! They came down this weekend to watch conference w/ us & of course go out to celebrate! We FINALLY made it to the infamous Cheesecake Factory where we only waited for an hour & a half to get our much anticipated table (last time we tried to go it was a 4 hr wait...needless to say we chose to listen to our tummies and go elsewhere)! The food was very yummy & filling! And Connie even got sung to! And even though we had to pay for the peice of Cheesecake they decorated it all cute for her!!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!



It was also conference this weekend & I really feel like our Heavenly Father really does have a sense of humor! Think about it...Saturday's seem to be filled w/ activities, chores, errands, & so on SO to help keep us inside on Saturday and watch conference...He blessed us with LOTS of rain!

But, I did get some great insight and I know that changes will need to be made in my own life. I will admit I had a hard time watching conference when I was younger but now I really do enjoy conference now as I am getting older and having to take on responsibility for my own life & actions, I really look forward to hearing what will be said and what spiritual insight I can grab from it to help me in my own track to Eternal HAPPYness :)
