Wanna taste something YUMMY?

I think I have a new favorite. Diane and Brent and Colter came over on Sat. night to watch the Jazz game with us-ahem- Jason and she brought this. It is super yummy! I had to have a second slice! And thanks to Diane for the new favorite treat! BTW, I did catch most of the game and man, way to leave it till the last minute possible boys! Go Jazz!

Here's what my dad looked like when he was a boy.


I've always been told that I look a lot like my dad but my nephew Carson is a carbon copy of these photo's!

It's just so much fun for me to think of my dad as a little boy all young and innocent and cute. Thanks aunt Marilyn for the photo's!

This is what happens when Ugly Betty takes a stint off and I have a camera



My last comment is said with as much love one could muster for a child that is known to ALWAYS take off her diaper RIGHT BEFORE SHE PEES or right after leaving a little somethin somethin for mommy to clean up.

This is our suite


Sorry about the bed, J shot this right as we were getting ready to leave. I forgot my camera when we first got to the hotel and so I couldn't get a good shot when it was nice and clean and daylight.

It's been a while

Here are some photo's that I finally am able to post. I know it's been a while but this is what you get with me lately. I'm just going to talk about them and then post a bunch. The flight from my birthday is first. The extra guy in the photo's is my pilot. I was sitting in the pilot's seat but he did most of the actual flying work. (It was a heck of a lot to take in in two hours! I was a bit overwhelmed) Ellyse and Jason got to fly with us. That was neat! Then there are photo's of the rock canyon between St. George and Vegas. We went down last weekend and got away. It was a lot of fun. However, when I went to order my photo's, only 1/2 came through so I'll have to share some of our AWESOME SUITE later. Vegas was a blast btw and a MUCH needed break from real life!!! Loved it. Wanna go back soon.

What's been happening?

I'm confused. I decided to share this because I'm totally confused and I don't understand how this is happening. Ever since the car crash back on Jan. 25, I've been eating every day -more or less- like a complete cow. I mean, food has no chance in front of me. I have been a ravenous beast that is out to kill. I seriously understand the consequences of eating like this and have been trying to overexercise to at least try and make up for some of my actions. So it's been a month and a week or so and when I weighed in after about a week from the crash, I ACTUALLY LOST 3 POUNDS! What?! At first, I chalked it up to stress but last time I weighed in, I was below what I'm used to. This DOES NOT HELP! Because it tells me that yeh Jul, go ahead, eat that batch of cookies all by yourself, eat the extra piece of pizza, would that be fries or veggies with your order? How about both. And NOTHING BAD WILL HAPPEN. IN FACT, YOU'LL LOSE WEIGHT. Because for a month and a week, you'll be living in Bizzaro world (Seinfield fans beware) and everything is backwards. You don't have to work and money will just keep coming in, dinner will magically make itself and the broom will suddenly know how to sweep the floor, kids will be cooperative and husbands will buy flowers EVERY DAY OF THE WEEK,,,, FOR YOU!

So, may be some of the things I mentioned won't exactly happen but, the first thing, about eating like a cow and losing weight, has happened. I have been trying a new exercise program and I wonder if this has everything to do with it but you know, I just can't wrap my head around that idea. I'm asking for ideas or help or just plain listening ears to help me understand this. May be some of you have experienced this little part of bizzaro world and have found out how or why this is happening.

Normally, I would rejoice that I'd lost 3 pounds but it's almost like finding a million dollars and NOT doing the right thing by turning it in. Any ideas? And, now my body is quickly getting used to overeating and I'm afraid.



BTW, I kind of left everyone hanging with no info on my historic plane ride and it was great! It was a lot of information to take in in 2 hours time. If you don't have people waiting for your historic flight to happen, it probably wouldn't be that bad but if you got family members waiting, go in with some caution. Mighty cool experience though!

Kent's Market has a great deal on pork right now.

Last night I headed to Kent's Market in Roy. They have pork ribs for .99 cents/pound. I got a rack of ribs for under 2.80. Plus, they're boneless and everyone I've heard from about this says that they're wonderful. I guess we'll find out next week when we cook ours up. They also have pork picnic roasts for 1.29/lb and so I got a whole roast for under 4 bucks. Sweet! Costa Vida Burritos at our house next week too!! YUM.
