Rich Electric Golf Day!

My dad's company is made up of some awesome people. I think it is such a great place to work because not only do all the guys work well together, they are friends outside of work as well. One of the main tests you have to pass in order to become an employee is getting along with all the other guys! We all have so much fun together and all their families are wonderful as well. Since we have such a great time hanging out, my dad likes to treat everyone to some fun activities every once in a while. This time it was a day of golf. Obviously I'm not a great golfer but I ran around and took pictures and took a swing or two at my pink golf ball Broc gave me! I'm so grateful to have an awesome job!

Costa Rica!

So Liz finally decided where she wanted to go for her Sr. Trip. We have been tossing a few options around for a number of months now and the decision has finally been made. We are going to Costa Rica on June 21st for a week and a half! It is just going to be my family and Kade and I. The last time Kade came on a family trip with us was to Australia about a year before we got married so we are about due for another fun and exciting adventure! My dad actually went to Costa Rica with a group last year which is who convinced Liz that this is the place you want to be. We are looking forward to half of the trip exploring the jungles of Monte Verde and seeing the wildlife there and also visiting the active volcano in Arenal. The next half of the trip will be spent at the Marriott Jaco Beach Resort where we will swim, spa, and play tennis, golf, and most likely get some surfing in. We are all REALLY excited. It's always fun to have something to look forward to and you know Kade and I can't go very long without an adventure so this is our next big one! I think I have about lost my tan from the cruise so I better get working on the that again!

Jazz Game

Well, since it is taking me so long to get those other cruise pic's on my computer I thought I would post about the Jazz Game that Kade and I went to. His dad got tickets so his dad took this girl that he met on the internet (AWKWARD) cuz they had never met in person 'til then and then Kade and I. They were on the 4th row behind the Jazz bench and the tickets included the dinner on the top floor of the Delta Center or whatever the heck it is called now. Anyway, we had a really good time and I have to thank my father-in-law for the great seats!

They played the Lakers and lost but it was still fun! It's funny how into it some people get. I guess I will always be a Jazz fan at heart since I grew up during the days of Stockton and Malone. I'm a Utahn, what can I say? Go Jazz! Haha!

Cruise 2008!

 

All right, I finally got these pictures on the computer. This is just the first half (that's all that would fit on the memory stick) so there will probably be one more post of pictures from the cruise. We had an absolute blast. We traveled with 3 other couples and all became great friends by the end! Our first stop was Jamaica, then Grand Caymans, then Cozumel and this includes the first half of Cozumel, the next one will have the rest of Cozumel and the Bahamas! I am so very grateful to have a husband who loves to travel as much as I do and who I can share all these amazing experiences with. No adventure would be as fun without him by my side, so thanks Kade for being a wonderful you! Hope everyone enjoys!

Change of plans

Well I don't know if any of you have been watching the news but there are some of the most severe blizzards in the east in 25 years, so due to all the snow we weren't able to do the church history tour, we couldn't even fly out there. I just flew home from Florida with the rest of my group so I didn't have to travel by myself but thanks everyone for all the advice and words of comfort anyway. I have been really busy with work but I am going to get some pic's from the cruise up here ASAP. And by the way we had an INCREDIBLE time!

Here we go...

Well, tomorrow Kade and I leave for our cruise! I am really excited, but kinda stressed, I know it will be awesome once we get there, it's the getting there that is the problem. See, after our cruise I fly straight up to Palmyra, NY to meet up with my family for the church history tour, so really I am packing for 2 weeks for completely different climates. Kade has to get back to work and school so I am just going to be spending the time with my family. I am excited but kind of nervous, ok I am SUPER nervous because I have never traveled anywhere by myself. I have to spend the night in Florida by myself and then catch a cab to the airport and check in and fly by myself to New York, SCARY!!!!! Most of you are probably laughing at what a wuss I am, I mean I have traveled to a lot of places in my life, just never alone! O well, I will just have to get over it and know that I will have a great time if I make it there alive! Haha! So peace out for a few weeks, I hope things go well for everyone while I am gone!
