staying cool

It has been hot here in Utah - as I was going down the road - I saw a sign that said it was 109! eeeeekkkkkk! So to beat the heat - I invited over my nephews and we had some fun in the pool here at our apartment complex.

This is Taylor - he is now 8! I am really starting to feel old! He is still learning how to swim....good - so I had him practicing how to kick his feet!

This is Conner! His birthday in next Tuesday and he will be 4 - as you can see by the fingers he is holding up - he is 3 right now! He is such a cutie and has sooo much personality!

Just a little update we still haven't gotten into our house - hopefully this next week we will close - and then I'll have more pic's to show you! Hope everyone else is keeping cool! ttfn

OUCH!

Sooooooooo - this is what happens when you try to be nice and donate blood to save someone's life. YUP - this is my arm.
My work was holding a blood drive LAST WEEK and i decided "self - this would be a good thing to do" and well - they ended up taking out the coffee straw - i mean - needle early because i started to bruise - meaning they didn't have enough blood and so would just throw it away AND leaving me with this little momento!
It is actually growing - so I'm seeing the doc to see if I have some sort of blood cloting disorder - lots of fun let me tell you!
Until then everyone I'm sure is thinking that I'm in some sort of abusive relationship. :)

just to catch you up.....

Summer is almost over - Soooooo - I wanted to catch everyone up on what has already happened. Ty and I kicked off the summer by going down to Moab - it was a lot of fun except for the wind - that never stopped! This is one of the arches we hiked to! It was really fun and we were sad to come back :(

Then - I am sad to annouce....I sold the beloved Sunfire! R.I.P - It lived a long and happy life. And for all the accidents it went through (none were my fault) it carried on - until this summer when "lil' car" couldn't take any more!

She will be dearly missed - but is in a better place now!

On June 21st - (the first day of summer) Ty and I went to the Kenny Chesney, Dierks Bentley, Carry Underwood Concert. It was so fun! Kenny actually made a surprise entrance by coming up in the middle of the crowd - It was a great concert! And I highly recommend Kenny (to the right) and Dierks (right below) to everyone.

Ty and I have actually done a lot more this summer - BUT we just haven't taken picture's - hopefully having this blog will inspire me to capture more of our moments to share with all!

odds and ends

These are just some pic's of us from the kind of recent past. The top one is one of my fav's - the two men in my life! The middle is of me by a HUGE moose in the Minnesota airport. And the bottom pic - is of me snowboarding up in Jackson......with no helmet......but i'm fine! :) Those who know me - know the story - if you don't just ask and i'll tell you what I remember :)

Adalynn and Ty

Hello All! After seeing everyone else do this - I thought it would be fun to get Ty and I on the band wagon - PLUS this will help keep everyone up on our ever changing lives! Hope everyone enjoys!
