16 yrs later, and a earlier bedtime.........


16 years ago Maryann and I, along with a few other close friends went on what we thought was the BEST TRIP EVER!!! We were just 16 yrs old, and my very trusting very wonderful mom let me take Ryan's car to St. George for the sunshine tournament. We had a great time! Maryann and I just recently got reconnected, and we wanted another vacation together. It just seemed fitting that it be in St. George. We were able to do many of the things we wanted to do. See a play at Tuacahn (les miserables), hike in Zion's, eat at the pizza factory, and laugh at the lack of enthusiasm our husbands had for our nostalgic moments. Although many things have changed for us both over the years. Husbands, kids, being able to stay up past midnight. For me, it was as if time has stood still when we got back together.



A special thanks to our husbands, who let us be silly together again!!

Sometimes you just have to laugh!

So I had just finished getting Addy dressed, and I went into the bathroom to put my makeup on, I noticed the tub was still full from Coby's bath. I quickly pulled the plug knowing that she would just get in if she saw it. Well the phone rang, so I went to get it. I didn't even answer the phone, and by the time I came back she was in and she was HAPPY!! I wanted to be angry, but with a smile like that, I didn't stand a chance. So I took off her clothes and she got her bath.

Turns out,,,, I can read.

So it's been a little over a decade since I have read a book.(Not counting the B.O.M.) Turns out I can still read. Even better, I really like to. I started the Twilight series when we went to palisades. I was almost certain not to read them because I had heard so much about them, and quite frankly they sounded stupid. I gave in to peer pressure from the girls at work. I'm sooo glad I did. I am on the fourth book (breaking dawn). I am obsessed!! My son Taylor laughed at me because I was reading in the tub. However, I felt sad that he rarely sees me reading. I have a feeling that will change. Matt worries about what will happen after I'm done with the books. I'm hoping that someone has some ideas of books that are comparable!!!
