The Bar-D

My mom, sisters Krista & Cammy and cute little niece ShayLee came down to visit for a week. It was so much fun to have them here. We really had a great time but it went by way to fast! : (

We went up to the Bar-D in Durango while they were here. Heber, Boston and their family came too. We got a sitter for Ben & Lanessa but decided to bring Jenaya this time. I’m really glad we did, she really enjoyed it.




We had some time before dinner and the show to take a little train ride and get some pictures around the cute setting.

We had such a fun time there. I’ll post more about our week later ; )
See ya!

HaPpY bIrThDaY jOsH!!

Josh’s 32nd birthday was on the 4th. We took the kids to see “UP” in 3-D. It was so great! I had never seen a 3-D movie in a theatre before.



Josh’s parents were so nice to offer to watch the kids so he and I could go out to eat.
We went to El Paso Steakhouse…..Mmmmm good!



Josh’s mom made his favorite cake, chocolate with choc. frosting. The kids helped grandma put the candles on the cake. It took a lot of helpers to light THAT many candles! ; )





I love you my old man! Happy Birthday Honey!!

Women’s Conference

I was able to go to Women’s Conference at BYU again this year. I road up with my friend Audrie and her mom Linda (see pic below)
Of course we had to hit Quilted Bear before they dropped me off at my sister's house. I didn’t do as much damage in there as last year ; ) But Audrie……




Two of my sisters came this year, Cherise & April. We had such a great time together. I always come away feeling uplifted and ready to “try” it again ; ) I’m so grateful for the people who make it possible for there to be a WC. I know that it has to be sooo much work to organize thousands and thousands of women! They do such a great job. I hope we can all go again next year.




The first day of the conference was April’s b-day, so we took her out for dinner & a movie up in SLC. We saw “State of Play” at the Megaplex…. I must be a small town girl because I had never seen a theater where you buy your own tickets out of a kiosk and not from someone in a box-office! It was so cool! That theater was so stinkin’ cool. I'll tell ya what, we are so deprived here in podomville.
We ate at the Mayan Restaurant. It was so fun! They have live divers to entertain you while you eat. It was a really great show they put on.

Here’s some pics we took while we were waiting to be seated.













Yummy food!





Here’s a clip of some of the divers (it’s WAY better than what this video can show).



I guess Cherise was DONE with pictures….how could that be?? It’s okay though, I still love her! ; )
