VEGAS!!!!!!

Last weekend my sisters, parents and I went down to Las Vegas to see Celine Dion!!! We went for 5 days. It was so much fun!! It was so nice to get away from reality and just relax and do fun stuff. So the only thing we had plan for the whole trip was Celine....so we all sat down and decided what each of us wanted to do... most of all we all wanted to do something everynight.
So Thursday we went to the Luxor for dinner and then went over to The Bellagio to see the fountains(this is one of my favorite things I could sit there all night and watch them) Favorite part of that night is there were a group of boys that were selling their CDs, and we all walk past them saying "no thanks" and kept walking....but my awesome dad stops and chats with them and one of the guys says he went to Weber State and that their group is a rock group.....so what does my dad do he buys the CD LOL!! I don't want to be rude or anyone take me wrong but these boys were for sure not a rock group more like a rap group:) So after asking my dad to bring his "rock CD" in the car to listen to it the last night he brought it out and it was for sure not a "rock CD" it was clear rap ha ha ha oh my dad is so gullible sometimes ;)

So we found out you can buy cheaper show tickets for that day through this company so on Friday night we decided to go to Phantom of the Opera!!!!! (You are not allowed to take pictures in the theatre so Lisa and I got yelled at for this one) The show was Awesome!!! I loved it so much we sat on the balcony first row and I think they were really good seats for the price we paid;) Oh I love that music!!!!

Then on Saturday it was what we had all been waiting for CELINE DION CONCERT!!!!! You aren't allowed to take pictures or videos in the theater either so we only could get these pics of her. All I can say is I seriously love her!!! I could just sit and listen to her all day everyday. Best part of the show were when the curtains opened at the beginning she got a standing ovation before she even started singing it brought tears to my eyes no joke ;) Also she had pics of her and her family and those pics of her and her 2 twin boys were so freaking cute!! The concert was soooo good she is AMAZING!!! I regret so much not going to her other concert in Vegas before but what do you do. I hope I get to go again or she goes on tour again that would be awesome!!!!

Then on Sunday we went to the Hoover Dam......all I can say is boiling HOT!!!! It was so funny when we got there and got out of the car all of us were like do we really want to do this?? ;) We hurried and walked across it and hurried and took pictures too. It was so HOT!!!!! So now I can say I've been to the Hoover Dam ha ha ha

On Sunday night we went to the Knights of the Roundtable show. All I can say is Red Knight went down.... down down down Red knight went down(from Cable Guy) So if you don't get that when you go to this show you get seated in different colored section that are contries and we were
Spain and we were cheering for the Red Knight....and he seriously lost everything he pretty muched sucked LOL!!!!

But even though he sucked and died 2 times.....we took a picture with him LOL!!!

All I have to say is that I had so much fun with my sisters and parents!!! Some other things we did but I don't have pictures of it is that Aubrey and I went on the rollercoaster at New York New York, Lisa and my dad played black jack and both came home winners, eating the yummy desserts at The Cheesecake Factory, exploring the hotels, the awesome and hilarious game(I made up cause I'm really smart;)) while you walk through the crowds and crowds of people you just say out loud the first thing that you see.....some of the sayings from the game were jiggle boobs, hairy chest, MOLE and many many more. It was hilarious!!!! We saw Elvis sitting in his car at the Vegas sign even he thought it was to hot to stand outside ;)

It was funny while we were leaving me and Lisa were talking and both of us agreed that we don't think we will ever come back to Vegas.....I don't know I had fun but i just think its overrated I don't know I guess it is just not fun for some good old Mormons ;) jk I did have fun with my family and I did get to see CELINE DION and that was totally worth it!!!!!

Life is to Short......

I stole this off another person's blog but this is so so true!! For the past couple months I would say I have been so stressed about everything since Dustin got his job I have seriously been planning things out (but really only in my head) like oh we have insurance we can have a baby, oh we are making so much more money we can buy a house, and oh with this money we can pay are debt off in a few months.... Come to find out last night after Dustin and I sat down and went over our finances and made a budget these things I want are going to take awhile for all this to happen. So after breaking down last night crying and stressed that my dream of having a house and having a baby is so far down the road feels like years(but really it isn't going to be)

So I came across this quote today and it made me feel better. This is my life!! If I'm not happy change it seriously if I want a house stick to the budget and get out of debt pinch my pennies on the unnessecary things......go to work on time and stay til 5 even if there are no patients(hello your boss doesn't care).....Enjoy this time with Dustin just me and him...... go do things......and specially if you hate spending Fridays and Saturdays at the grandparents house while Dustin is at work leave you don't have to stay there :)

So sorry about the venting but heres to the new me!! :) I know I just need to change my attitude about this all. Even when your Husband goes and buys a new car and stresses you out to the brink of killing him!!!!(long story) I will have a house and a family someday but just not RIGHT now so don't be mad all day everyday because that is not happening. Get your butt in gear so when that time does come you are ready!!!! :) Life is to short to be upset and stressed everyday....This is your life enjoy it!!!!

Summer has officially started!

All I can say is that I love love love summer!! The past couple weeks have been so much fun! A week ago Dustin didn't have to work the weekend because he volunteered to work on memorial day... so I woke up early Friday morning to Dustin jumping on the bed asking if I want to go to the zoo!! I was like heck yess hurried and got ready and left. It was so much fun it was a little chilly and early in the morning but the animals were so active!! I am such a kid I love the Zoo(a little secret when I was little I wanted to grow up and be a zookeeper ha ha) Then we went to lunch afterwards to A little taste of Britain in Layton. It was so so good we both had the fish and chips and it was so good and I'm not a big fish fan so if I say they were good.... they are good!! :) Go try it out!! It is owned by a couple from England that moved here so it is all food that they serve in England. They also sale candy and goods that are from England so we had to buy some of the chocolate and it was good!!

Later that night it was the annual Brigham City Relay for Life!! It was my third time going and it was awesome!! Even though I think I am getting way to old to stay up all night because I don't think I made it past 1:00am ;) I blame it on Dustin cause he woke me up so early wink wink or because we layed down and watched movies ;) The best part of the whole time was the next morning we all woke up to see this person in a sleeping bag next to our group and we had no clue who it was...... So we just sat there and waited and waited to see who this person who was sleeping by us was and they finally woke up and it was some strange girl that we didn't know who fell asleep while we had the movies going LOL!!! It was the second year they had the T-ball tourny it is always a blast even though we took second but thats ok we can't win every year. But it was a great time and hanging out with the Nelsons make it so much more fun love that family!!!

Then last week I'm sitting at home Dustin is at work and I get a phone call from my good friend Jacki asking do u want to go to Lagoon.......YES!! I haven't been to Lagoon since high school and have wanted to go for years! All I can say that it was so so much fun!! I seriously have not laughed that hard in forever!! Best parts were that we all wore wolf shirts(you know the fam that wear the same color so they won't lose members well we wore wolf shirts and would howl if we lost anybody) we r awesome:), 12 and pregnant couple(seriously kids r way to young to be in a relationship) and the lezzies making out during the scrambler!! LOL!! I don't care if you are straight our not nobody wants to watch u suck each others face off!! Thanks again Cousin Jacki for inviting me it was so so much fun!!

Then Saturday we went to the Salt Lake Bees game! It was awesome like always and they had fireworks afterwards and that was awesome. Even though they went into extra innings and didn't get over til late and the Bees lost it was so much fun! It would of been better if the whole family could of been there but what do you do ;)

But all I can say is I LOVE summer!! I can't wait til next week it is my Birthday and we are going to VEGAS to see Celine Dion!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Seriously best birthday present ever(I know it really isn't for my birthday it just happend to fall on that weekend) And my sister Lisa is coming!! Can't wait and in July Lisa, Brianna and maybe Justin are coming to visit and we are going to have so much fun!! This summer is going to be so awesome!!

Happy Birthday Jan!!

We don't know why the Lily blooms

So briefly in the warmth of

the sunlight's kiss upon its face

To soon it folds its fragrance in

and bids the world goodnight to rest

its beauty in a gentler place

But, we know our loved one

will never leave-she who loved,

smiled and gladden our hearts.

She will live in our memories

all of our lives and in all of

the things of which she's been a part.

We ever long to hear her voice,

feel her touch, and see her face.

So we try to stop crying,

and tell ourselves, that,

like the Lily, she rests her beauty

in a gentler place.

Just wanted to wish my late mother in law a Happy Birthday today. Can't believe that it has been 6 months since she passed. Wish she was still here with us we sure do miss her. Happy Birthday Jan!!! We love you and miss you so much!!!!

The Best Day Ever Before 6:00a.m.!!!

Well today I woke up to my alarm at 1:50am!! Why in the world would you think I would wake up that early in the morning for?? Well today was the day of The Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton!!

I know you probably think I'm a complete nerd and who would wake up that early and watch it specially because there would be 50 thousand reruns of it. Well some of the reasons is I don't work on Fridays, I guess I'm a hopeless romantic(favorite Disney movie is Cinderella), or I am really a complete nerd ha ha!! But for some reason since they got engaged I wanted to watch the wedding. Because I've seen videos of when Princess Dianna got married and just thought that was so cool. And the other reason Kate is just a common girl like u or me ;) I guess a real life fairytale. (come on what girl wouldn't love to marry a prince and become a princess!!)

Isn't she beautiful!! ;)

Some of my favorite parts of the Wedding:

-The awesome Hats!!

-Her in the car with her dad(teared up during that)

-How she didn't want Prince William to see her until the very end and he is standing there with his back to her and Prince Harry is taking a peek!! Love that he didn't turn around til she was there oh so cute!!

-Harry smirking!!

-Their cute glances to each other during the whole thing so freaking cute!!

-The 2 kisses on the balcony, wish they kissed longer but still cute.

-Video of Hyde Park lady!!!! LOL!!! if you watched it you know what I'm talking about so hilarous couldn't stop laughing out loud!!

-Channel 4 went green totally freaked out ha ha!!

-The carriage that the Queen got in just a little scary!!! LOL

-Dustin's grandma coming down at 4am saying she had low blood sugar(ya right I think she just wanted to watch) and her saying "I just don't get it this is no more important that anyones elses wedding" ha ha ya I guess she is right I didn't marry a prince but I did married my prince charming!!

-For some reason my phone alarm wouldn't stop going off every 5 mins for the first hour I guess it didn't want me to fall asleep ;)

-Most of all my good friend Jacki was watching it too! I so wish we could of watched it together but we texted each other the whole time loved it!!

I totally love that I woke up and watched it live it was awesome. You may thing i'm crazy but who cares I loved it!!

Well how would it be to be a normal girl and now a princess!!

Out "Little" Getaway

I have been begging Dustin for us to go on a vacation for a long time now. Finally after a few melt downs from me he agreed to take me somewhere. Lets just say these melt downs were not good I don't know what is wrong with me I guess I just needed a break from everything ASAP!! Please don't think I'm a baby and whined and threw a fit to get my way there are a lot of factors for my melt downs (I've been working 2 jobs to support Dustin going to school full time and we moved into Dustin's grandparents basement, feeling that our future of having a family and moving were so far away that I think I was just getting stir crazy and stressed with everything plus this stupid weather is killing me!!!) But anywho I finally got Dustin to agree to go somewhere. And if you don't know Dustin very well he is really a homebody and doesn't I repeat doesn't like to go places that much. So last Sunday I was looking for places to go for the weekend. We wanted to go to either Park city or St. George but yet again this stupid Utah weather it was supposed to rain and snow all weekend UGH!! So we waited and waited to see if the weather was going to change so we could go to one of these places but it didn't so we just thought well lets go to Salt Lake and stay over night, go shopping and go to dinner. So we stayed at the Little America Hotel and got the Bed and Breakfast package!! So here are some pics from our "little" getaway ;)

We had so much fun!! Even though it was way to short and the weather sucked it was so nice to getaway with Dustin!! I love him so much!! Can't wait until we get to go somewhere again!!

Other news for us is that Dustin got a job!! Doing exactly what he was going to school for!! He starts tomorrow and the pay is great and they get BENEFITS!! Can you tell how excited I am to have those ha ha....... BABY SOON??............. LOL we'll see. But I'm so proud of Dustin he really worked hard to get this job. This is seriously such a blessing for us words really can't explain how happy we are!! Its just amazing how in such a few months how much our lives have changed and how much they are going to change from this great blessing ;)

Temple work

Dustin and I with my parents, Brad(brother)and Hilary(sister-in-law) got to go there the Logan Temple and do some sealings today. It was so much fun I love it. It is such a humbling experience to go and do sealings for people that never got the chance and to know that now through you they now have the chance to be with their families forever. I also got the chance to be a proxy for girls to be sealed to their parents. It was so neat because I was lucky enough to do it my parents it was such a neat experience to be there kneeling with my parents who I am sealed to and now these girls have the chance to be sealed to their parents. This church is amazing and to go and do stuff like this just really puts life in perspective family is really the most important thing in life. I love my family so much. Thanks guys for coming with me and Dustin hope we get to go back soon!!!
