My Nieces & Nephews

We had a family night at my mom's house on Sunday and I thought it would be fun to get pictures with my nieces and nephews because they are all so dang cute. Alexa (17), me holding Jenica (20 months), Preston (10), and CalleJo(5). These are Kristin's. I can't believe we got a good, normal faced picture.
This is only one of the crazy faced pictures. Preston was being a little difficult.

Hayden (14) & Alyssa (10) Cristal's kids.

Tunnel with Bethany & Alyssa

It was Bethany and Alyssa's Birthdays in August so they got to fly in the tunnel. They both loved it and Alyssa says she wants to go again with the money she gets from her birthday. Ryan and I forgot our skydiving jumpsuits so we had to wear the ones I-fly had which made it a little harder because I am so used to my suit, but we still had a lot of fun. Bethany

Lasting Love on the rocks

I have been meaning to post a link to this article for a while but keep forgeting. On August 5th the Deseret News printed this article which featured my mom and dad. It's a pretty cute article. Check it out.

Bad News, Good News

The bad news is that rumor has it that the release of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince has been moved from this Thanksgiving to next summer. The good news is that with that being moved it opens the door for an earlier release of Twilight!!!!!!!!!!!! It is now set to open on November 21st. Can't wait.

Newport Beach and Catalina Island

Ryan and I went to Newport Beach last week and had a blast. This is on the beach. All of our pictures together are self portraits, kinda funny. The weather was perfect, basically it was constantly 75 degrees give or take a few. It really made me hate the winter even more and I am totally dreading the cold that will unfortunately be coming way too soon. Fortunatly, we will probably be on a cruise for a week during the winter, yeah.

They have a ferris wheel right by the beach. It was a lot of fun.

On the Balboa Pier.

On the ferry from Balboa Island to Balboa Penninsula in Newport Harbor.

We took a day and went to Perris Valley Skydiving about an hour away.

Another day we took a Catamaran to Catalina Island where we did a 2 hour kayaking adventure, and snorkeling.

Happy Anniversary!

Today is our 8th Anniversary. We our going to Newport Beach for the week. We'll be leaving Tuesday after work. I can't wait! It has been an awesome 8 years. I love that we have known each other for 13 years and been married 8 of them and are still 100% in love. These fun pics were taken last year at Knott's Berry Farm.

Dancing with the Stars-The Hough's

Today Ryan got to video Julianne and Derek Hough's Tandem Skydives. For those of you who aren't fans of Dancing with the Stars, they are the Professional dancers that teach the stars how to dance. Julianne and her star she taught has won Dancing with the Stars twice. They are from Utah. Julianne also has a country album out. Ryan was making fun of me that I wanted to meet them and get a picture with them, but I don't care. How often do you get to meet someone famous on your on turf? They are really down to earth people and it was fun to get to know them a little bit.

Breaking Dawn-WOW

So I started reading around 1:00 in the afternoon on Saturday and finished at 4:00 in the morning. I just couldn't set it down. I had to force myself to stop reading to take potty breaks and of course eat and fix dinner for Ryan. It was soooooooooo amazing. Nothing that you'd expect but so much better. Stephenie Meyer is an amazing author. Sometimes I'd be thinking how does she come up with this stuff?! Let me know when you finish so we can talk.
