Truck Racing

This weekend Kyle and I went with some friends to Las Vegas to the Truck Racing which is just like NASCAR but with trucks. It was so much fun. The weather was so hot it was around 107 but as soon as the sun went down it was perfect and around 81 degrees. The race was pretty quick too but I do have to admit I didn't watch much of the race. We had a couple in front of us that were fighting the whole time. It was pretty distracting but entertaining. It is funny what alcohol does to a person. They had a few drinks in their system. The last picture is really there to show off the pretty sunset. The colors were amazing! We had a great time and wouldn't mind going again. The tickets were free so you can pass that up! (Except never eat at the Saraha Casino Buffet. It was GROSS!!!)

Fall

Last weekend I wanted to go up the mountain to take pictures of the red leaves and hopefully get some of us. Thank goodness Kyle is a good husband and didn't mind taking me up the mountain. The leaves on the trees were just begining to change and there were mostly red leaves. It was so beautiful. I have decided that Fall is my favorite time of year. As you could tell Jaxsen didn't coperate very well with the camera. He usually does but there was just too much going on for him to stare at the camera.

NICKELBACK!!!

This was the coolest concert I have ever been to. All the bands were AMAZING!!! The first band was Saving Abel. They are new and didn't have too many songs to sing but they still did a good job. Papa Roach was the 2nd band and I was so surprised at how many songs of theirs I knew. They aren't my favorite band but they put on a very good concert. This first picture is of Papa Roach. This also shows how great our tickets were. We were so close.

The 3rd band was Hinder. We had seen them before and they did a great job but this time was different. This time the lead singer jumped off stage and went thru the crowd singing the song. This next picture is of the singer as he was right in front of us. There wasn't anyone in the row infront of us for some reason and he darted in and stood on the chair. We were so shocked that we weren't able to get the camera out soon enough to get a good picture, but you could tell how close he was. It was so awesome!

Nickelback came out when it was pretty dark so we weren't able to get any good pictures of them but they were awesome. Actually words can't describe how much fun we had and good they were. I absolutely love their songs and they sang all the best ones. They had fireworks going, flames, cool light show and great interaction with the crowd. We sang songs by garth brooks and ac/dc. They sang for 3 hours straight. The drummer did the coolest drum solo. He has some serious talent. The AC/DC song was sung by the lead singer from Hinder. He did a great job.

This concert was so good that we are actually thinking of going to the one in Vegas. I can't wait for them to put out a new album! Thank you Kyle for taking me to the Nickelback concert for our anniversary!

2 Years!!!

This past tuesday Kyle and I celebrated our 2 year anniversary! We couldn't believe how fast time as gone. We went out to dinner with Kyle's family and had a great time. When I came home from work I had flowers waiting for me on the counter. They are so pretty!

I'm so glad that Kyle and I have eachother. I love him so much! I can't imagine my life without him. He is my bestfriend. He is always there when I have bad days and helps remind me of the things we have to be thankful for. I can't wait to have many more anniversary's!!!

I LOVE YOU KYLE!!!

Girls Weekend!

This past weekend I went to Las Vegas with a few of my co-workers to have a girls weekend. I'm so glad I went. It was nice to hang out with my friends outside of work. We went to dinner at Dick's Last Resort. That is what the first picture is. The servers there are very rude to you but that is the whole point of the place. They throw your napkins and forks at you and then once they get to know you alittle better they start to write funny things on paper hats and give them to you. Some of them were very mean so I won't repeat what any of them said. =) The rule in Vegas is what happens here stays here so i'm only putting up the group picture at dinner up and my picture with my hat. After dinner we went to a country night club called Stoney's. They have a mechanical bull there and alot of the girls rode the bull. It was so funny to watch them try to stay on. I was too tired to ride. We finally went home around 4 in the morning!! I haven't stayed up that late in forever! Saturday we did some major shopping and hung out by the pool. Then I went home with some of the girls that night while the rest of them stayed till Sunday. We had a great time and I can't wait to go again.

North Carolina Trip

Over July 24th Weekend Kyle and I went to North Carolina. A co-worker of Kyle's won a trip there and wasn't able to go so we got to go instead. We had a blast! I would move there is a heart beat. I wish I had taken pictures of the place. It was amazing. The East coast is so green! There were so many trees that you couldn't see the towns from the freeway. So the whole point of the trip was Super Car Sensation. It is a company that owns luxury cars like Lamborghini, Porsche, Aston Martin, Nissan GTR, Mercedes, Ferrari, BMW. You can choose from different plans and we got to go on the 4 hour road tour of Charlotte. We got to drive all the cars but the Ferrari (someone wrecked it acouple weeks before we got there), BMW, and the Mercedes. You go on your ride and every now and then we would pull over and change out drivers. Kyle got to drive all 4 cars and I drove 2 of the cars. I have to admit I was too scared to drive the Lamborghini. It was so wide and the roads are very narrow I knew I would crash it. We had such a good time. We decided out of all the cars we would totally buy the Nissian GTR. I got the car going 115 miles per hour. It was awesome. We drove on the back roads and every now and then you would slam the gas pedel down and get it going as fast as you could and then slow down to the speed limit. I would totally recommend this experience. We stayed in Charlotte for 3 days. We have a chaffeur the whole time. We rode around in Lincoln's the whole time. It was really nice to not have to worry about directions or anything. I've posted some pictures of us on our road trip. This first picture is of the Nissian GTR. The second and third is of the attention getter Lamborghini. Then the last picture is of the other cars we got to drive as well as the BMW. Our tour guide drove that car the whole time. He said he prefers the BMW over any of the cars they have there.

Swimming at the Lake

Yes I am going to bore you with pictures of my dog. This weekend Kyle surprised me by taking me and Jaxsen to Sand Hollow. First thing it was HOT!!!! I think it got to the upper 90's if not in the 100's. Don't worry though I took the sunblock! So we got there Saturday and we immediately decided to get in the water. It felt so good. Jaxsen has only been to the lake 2 times before. The first time he loved the water and kinda figured out how to swim. The 2nd time we had Max and he pretty much tried to drown Jaxsen as much as possible. So this time Jaxsen was all by himself and loved it. He caught onto swimming so fast. The only reason I'm talking about this is cuz Jaxsen is not meant to swim. His paws aren't webbed and he pretty much is too fat to float. He eventually got to the point where he would just take off swimming. I was so proud.

Even Kyle got in the water. It took us both awhile before we would go too far into the water but eventually the cold water won over the hot sand. We went for a ride on the sand dunes on our razor. I have to admit the Razor was a very good purchase. I'm not a fan of fourwheelers but this is so much fun. I can just go along for the ride and not have to worry about driving. It was a pretty fun weekend. It wore all of us out but I thought this picture of Jaxsen pretty much explained how hard we all played this weekend.

Awesome Weekend

This weekend I got the chance to go with my sister and her two daughters to Manti and see the Manti Pageant. I have seen it once before but I couldn't remember much about it. I was so excited to have a girls weekend with my sister. I got a call from work saying that I didn't need to go into work on friday and so I left early friday to hang out with my nieces. I always plan to hang out with my sister but I never get a chance since my nieces can always talk me into playing dolls and whatever else they want to do. =) So the time finally came and we took off. Wow is pretty much all I can say about the pageant. I had so many emotions. I cried alot mostly. It was so powerful! I'm glad that Carrie invited me to go. I probably wouldn't ever go becuase I never think about it. THANK YOU CARRIE and GIRLS!!!!

Then on sunday Kyle wanted to take me for a ride up the mountain. There is a cabin up there that a sheep herder made himself to protect himself from bears. After a long and very bumpy road Kyle finally remembered where it was. This cabin is neat! Everything inside he made. I guess the guy who made it doesn't live in it anymore but whoever owns the land takes very good care of the cabin. Looking at the cabin was pretty fun but the thought of bears being around pretty much scared me and so we didn't spend too much time there.
