Ladies Trip 2010

So this year was different, we decided to stay in Utah, Debbie and Jerolyn came in from Arizona, Debbie wanted to visit her new grand daughter for a while also. We started off early on Thursday morning, where I picked Debbie and Jerolyn up from the airport and then we drove to Jerolyn's Condo, where we stayed for the next 5 days. Thursday we went to the new Draper Temple. Then changed and went shopping and had dinner, shopped again and stayed up late just talking and playing. On Saturday night we met up with 3 more friends at the new Olive Garden in Draper, It was so nice to see some of our old friends from Kearns.

We went to Linda Meir's house where she was putting her designs together for her annual Festival of the Trees, here is one of the elves she made for her tree, she made 30 of them, for the theme of counting down the days until Christmas. She does this in honor of her daughter Nicole, who lost her battle with cancer many years ago, when she was about 8 years old.

We tried to learn more about our Cricket machines, so it was a good time to just learn from each other

A beauty lesson for Debbie from Berniece...

The last morning we went to the Spoken Word(the lady in red isn't supposed to be in the picture), Wolf took this picture, then I just thought I'd go home from here, and they went back to the condo to pick up and get home.

It's so fun to have this time with these amazing women, I love them and enjoy the fun and support we have together. We continue through the year, e-mailing each other each week. The next trip seems to come so quickly! We are getting older, but when we are together we feel like young girls again.

Halloween 2010

OK, I've been a "deadbeat blogger", but not as deadbeat as Aimee!! Everyone tell her that!!

Anyway I've missed a lot of events since, but I guess I'll start off again with Halloween. Here is our friends, Marilyn and Elvis, which I dress up in costumes. Nothing says Happy Halloween like this couple!! Yeah it's a bit creepy- maybe a lot Creepy!!
Now onto the cute version of Halloween, here is Keeton as a Robot...He along with Maloree and Grandpa and I went to Dicks Market to their annual Trunk or Treat...Keeton held on to my hand the whole time, because there were a few scary costumes, but they got a lot of candy...

Here is our beautiful Krystal with her yummy little cupcake girl, and her Robot boy, what cutie little kids!...

A better look at the cup cake costume...Yummy little girl!!

A photo with her little cup cake...

One more cute pose, she doesn't like to pose, so I took advantage of every opportunity...

Happy Halloween to everyone, I can't believe that the Holidays are starting, where does the time go?!! I will have to put up some pictures of Tracee and Matt's wedding celebration, as soon as I can...Sorry I missed some of the things in between. I hopefully will be better catching up with all of those... I love you all so much!! MOM

Brittney Comes to Visit!!

We were so happy to have Brittney come visit, to help Tracee do some planning for her wedding. Right from the airport, we went to see Oma and Opa... Then to Grandma and Grandpa's

We had a big group that night and had a pot luck dinner and a great time to visit...

She then went to visit with Brev's family, here with Heidi and her little girl...

And then her mother in-law and her parents...

The kids just loved Brittney, here we were at Dairy Queen...

We really got allot accomplished while she was here with us. We found Tracee's dream wedding dress, picked a cake, and ordered flowers. We are so glad that we had Brittney come and encourage us to get something done. Thank you for helping and just hanging out with us, we love you so much!! See you soon!!
