Finally a new post!!

Wow! Ican't believe I'm such a LAME blogger. Hopefully we will be better now that it's summer (yay!) and we have more fun things going on. So the latest news is that Bryce GRADUATED!! We are so excited. It didn't seem like this day would ever come! It was a really fun day. It was awesome to see him walk across the stage. I think he had the loudest crowd there. It was great! After graduation, Bryce's mom had a get together for him where lots of people came to show their support.


Then we jetted to Park City for the weekend. We stayed at a place called Zermatt Resort. It's a swiss place. It was beautiful. It was so nice just to get away for a few days. We got to do whatever we felt like for the weekend.

Good times!!

Wow! Such a fun week! I actually have a few things to blog about! We had such a great Thanksgiving this year! It was also Bryce's birthday on Thanksgiving, so that made for a very busy day! This year was my family's year so we decided to go out! First time we've ever done that but it was so much fun! We went to Marie Calendar's and we didn't cook or clean up. It was awesome! Here are some pics at the restaurant...


Also one of my good friends came in from out of town, so a bunch of my girls got together to go to dinner. These are my friends from beauty school. We got to know each other pretty well spending eight hours every day together for two years. But man we have had some good times! We laughed so hard about weird clients we had in school, the stupid things we did to our hair, and the crazy things we did in general! This is a pic of all of us.


Anyway, good times! So much to be thankful for, it's unbelieveable! We are so so blessed!

So a couple months back, I was able to go back east with my dad and see some of the sights back there. All of my brothers got to go with my dad, so I told him it was my turn. My dad is a big history buff so it was so much fun to go with him. He had such a cool story to go with everything we saw. I know, everyone's not into the whole history thing, so probably just skip this post if you're not. Anyway I flew into Washington D.C. So first we went and saw all of the memorials.


This was the Vietnam memorial. It has all of the soldiers names that were killed in the war on this wall. It also is symbolic. It starts really small with one or two names of people that died, and then the wall gets bigger and bigger as the war went on. Then the wall started getting smaller toward the end of the war.


This is the Lincoln memorial. Way cool! It has Lincoln's most famous speeches engraved on the walls.


You can't see this very well but this is where Martin Luther King Jr. stood and gave his famous speech. It was on the steps of the Lincoln memorial. Who knew?!


This is the Washington monument. This picture was taken from the Lincoln memorial. I guess all of the memorials and the white house make a big T. Did anyone else not know that?


Sorry it's sideways. This is the Iwojima memorial, one of my favorites! Such a cool story. This picture is the most published picture that has ever been printed.


A turtle we found in the road at Gettysburg with my cute dad!


Tomb of the unknown soldier at the Arlington Cemetery. This has a body of an unknown soldier from each war. 


Mr. Vernon. George Washington lived it up! He was such a sweet guy. The people begged him to be king and he refused. Where would we be without this humble guy?


Hill Cumorah


Sacred Grove, what an awesome place. I love Joseph Smith!


Niagara Falls. So cool! We even went down on the Maid of the Mist! 

Anyway there it is, sorry if that was totally boring! I also got to go to the Smithsonian and the Holocaust museum which was pretty mind blowing! A trip I'll never forget! Thanks Dad!





Wow! It has been awhile! Not too much going on here.  We're just kind of taking it one day at a time. Bryce did get an internship, so we are very excited about that! He has been working so hard and it looks like it finally is going to pay off! We did have a fun Halloween party that was a murder mystery dinner. Then on Halloween we hung out with some friends. I was hoping to watch a scary movie,  so we sent the boys to go rent one and they came back with "The Burbs". Not the scary movie I was thinking but it was pretty funny. Anyway, that's all!

Ok people!! ONE TREE HILL starts this Monday. It's on at eight o'clock! We just watched the season finale to remember what's going on. If you'll remember, Dan got hit by a car, then his little heart buzzer rang which meant that there was a heart ready for him. And Lucas calls someone to ask them to go to Vegas with him to get married! Ooh I can't wait to see who it will be! What do you guys think? Lindsey, Peyton, or Brooke? I'll tell you what, I have NO idea! I would love for it to be Brooke, I have always loved Lucas and Brooke! They are such good friends. It's so cute! But I guess it would be great if it was Peyton too. I just don't think they will do that because that is kind of what everyone thinks. And I hope it's not Lindsey! She drives me crazy! She's so back and forth! Anyway I'll stop babbling. But we get together to watch it every week so let me know if you want to join us!

Ok so seriously you have to watch this video! Ok so I guess John McCain said that all Obama is, is a celebrity so as far as he is concerned, Britney Spears or Paris Hilton would make as good of President as Obama would. Anyway this is Paris' comeback. Paris Hilton talking about politics? Who would of thought?! It's great tho! Check it out and let me know what you think.
