12 wonderful years

Brian and I just celebrated 12 years together (Nov. 6th).

To celebrate our Anniversary he surprised me with a 2 day getaway to Mesquite. I had no idea what he had planned. Since our original plan feel through do to the weather. Anyways....... Here is what we did..........

We left home Friday evening drove to Mesquite.
Ate dinner at Arby's
Went to the Casa Blanca for our stay.
Went to see a movie Tower Heist (funny movie)
went back to room and relaxed and watched tv the rest of the night.

Saturday....
Ate breakfast at the Purple Fez (yummy)
drove to Vegas to spend the day

Here's what we did in Vegas...
went to a souvenir shop and got a cute bracelet
Went to the Luxor Casino and saw 2 of the best exhibits ever. We saw the Human body exhibit and then the Titanic. Both were way cool.
Ate dinner
Gambled (a little and won a little bit of money)
wandered around looked at some shops
we were going to wander some other places but that didn't happen.
So we worked our way to Freemont Street.
Wandered around
listened to the band
rode the zipline down Freemont Street. That was fun and I don't like heights.
By then it was late so we headed back to Mesquite to our room. Got back there at 1:00 a.m or so.

We then headed back home Sunday morning after another yummy breakfast and a stop at Brian's moms place.

We had an incredible time together. It may not seem like we did a lot but we did enough. We were wanting to do more but it just didn't work out that way. Yes there was some more that happened but the one thing I am not going to tell you about. And the other was something stupid and a total waste of time.

Here's a heads up Time share people are like Lawyers. Don't get sucked in by them. I would tell you more but I really don't want too. So we will leave it at that.

Thanks to my sister in law Alayna who babysat for us all weekend long. She is a wonderful person.

Thanks to Brian for the great fun weekend we shared together. We have had some rough times in our marriage and we worked through them and stuck together. I am sure there we be plenty more rough times but we will get through those too. I can't wait for the next 60 years and forever.

happenings and adventures

This lovely graced us with its presence. Yes that is a bald eagle you see in that dead tree. This is across the highway from our home. A little while later 2 more showed up in different trees. It was cool seeing them that close.

Tired anyone? This was to cute not to get a picture of. Kasen is still awake. He's snuggling to his brother. How cute!

These next pictures are of an adventure Brian, Micah, Kasen, and I took back in February. We were heading somewhere a little warmer. At least thats what we were hoping for. But when we got to Lake Havasu it was just as cold as Utah was.

 We are flying right over the Grand Canyon. It had snow too. How pretty does that look.

             The Colorado River. It was flowing pretty good and fast.

We are still flying over the Grand Canyon. We were flying over it for quite awhile. It is definitely a big hole in the ground with a river running through it.

Brian and the kids go on all sorts of adventures. I prefer the ground.  The view from up there is incredible but it is just to high for me.

Mini Cheerleading Performance

From many moons ago there were 2 girls that went and learned a fun dance that they got to perform at the Boys Basketball game. 

So back in January Phelele and Cheya spent 2 1/2 days with the Valley High Cheer leaders. They got to learn a fun and short dance. All the girls had a hard time keeping up with the cheerleaders. They were to fast. But they enjoyed themselves. This was Cheya's first time ever doing this. Phelele has done it a few times before.

This picture they all had to pose quickly. Phelele and Cheya both had to throw themselves on the floor. It was kind of funny.

January also brought us 3 Birthdays. Brians was on the 5th,he turned 38 yrs. old, next was Acee on the 15th. She is now 5 yrs. old. A few days after her birthday we decided to put her in Preschool and she has been loving every minute of it.
Then it was Phelele's on the 31st, she turned 9 yrs. old (going on 20).
That month also brought us cold weather. The coldest weather we have ever had.

I also restarted up Lunch Bunch. It is a blast. It is something fun for moms and there little kids, with yummy potluck food. I recommend this to any mommy that is looking into being with other moms and kids.

More updates to come soon. So much has happened in just a few months.

Forever
