Night Out With The Girls

Wow! It's been along time since I've had a night out on the town with the girls. This last Friday night Britanie Butler, Joni Hackwell, and Dana Dimick went to Martina Mcbride!! So much fun! Especially laughing at everyone and their funny outfits!! Worst part about the whole trip was the drive back home. I got stuck in traffic on I-15 because of a wreck between Bountiful and Centerville.... I sat there with my car turned off for fourty-five minutes.... And didn't get into logan until 2:30am!!

Rockin Out Like the Good Old Days

Surgery- Breast Reduction :)


Well this last week I've had surgery. I've been so lucky as I've prepared for this to have Cameron be so understanding and drive down with me to Bountiful a number of time for all of my Doctor Appointments. And for his Mom Jeanette for taking me to the Surgical Center and staying there until Mom mom got there from Price. Everyone keeps asking me how I feel... And all I can say is sore... which is to be expected. :) haha But I'm so thankful for my mom staying up here in Logan with me all week to help me and give me a ride back down to Bountiful to get my drains taken out. But I think my Daddy deserves the BIGGEST THANKS!!! Thanks Dad!!! I Promise "We'll" Love it :)!!!!

Memory Tag from Tasha!!

I've had several friends post this tag on their blogs so I thought... What the heck here goes.

Here are the rules:
1. Add a comment on my blog, leave a memory that you and I had together. It doesn't matter if you knew me a little or a lot, anything you remember!
2. Next, re-post these instructions on your blog and see how many people leave a memory about you.It should be funny to see the responses. If you leave a memory about me, I'll assume you're playing the game and I'll come to your blog and leave one about you. I've done this on a couple of my friends blogs and it is fun to see every one's memories! Please, take the time to comment and write a memory of us!

Planning A Wedding....

Wow! This whole planning a wedding is frustrating. Making Invitation, Invitation Lists, Photographer, Wedding Cakes, Food, Place for Luncheon, Wedding Dress, trying to find time for Bridal Showers!!! And having no $$$$$$! All stuff that still needs to be done!!! hahaha good thing Cameron is so patient with me and my many tears... We got alot of stuff done we decided last weekend when we went to Twin Falls for an Reception. Franklin and Jeanette had a family friend whose daughter got married so we went up for the wedding reception. Twin Falls is where Franklin grew up so they told me stories about all over and showed me places. We went to Shoshone Falls!! AMAZING!!! We took some pictures but they are on Jeanette's camera. So I soon as I dump them I'll post them!

An Email That Had Me in Tears...

What would you do? ....you make the choice. Don't look for a punch line, there isn't one. Read it anyway. My question is: Would you have made the same choice?

At a fundraising dinner for a school that serves learning-disabled children, the father of one of the students delivered a speech that would never be forgotten by all who attended. After extolling the school and its dedicated staff, he offered a question: 'When not interfered with by outside influences, everything nature does is done with perfection. Yet my son, Shay, cannot learn things as other children do. He cannot understand things as other children do; where is the natural order of things in my son?'

The audience was stilled by the query.

The father continued. 'I believe that when a child like Shay, physically and mentally handicapped comes into the world, an opportunity to realize true human nature presents itself, and it comes in the way other people treat that child.'

Then he told the following story:

Shay and his father had walked past a park where some boys Shay knew were playing baseball. Shay asked, 'Do you think they'll let me play?' Shay's father knew that most of the boys would not want someone like Shay on their team, but the father also understood that if his son were allowed to play, it would give him a much-needed sense of belonging and some confidence to be accepted by others in spite of his handicaps.

Shay's father approached one of the boys on the field and asked (not expecting much) if Shay could play. The boy looked around for guidance and said, 'We're losing by six runs and the game is in the eighth inning. I guess he can be on our team and we'll try to put him in to bat in the ninth inning.'

Shay struggled over to the team's bench and, with a broad smile, put on a team shirt. His Father watched with a small tear in his eye and warmth in his heart. The boys saw the father's joy at his son being accepted. In the bottom of the eighth inning, Shay's team scored a few runs but was still behind by three. In the top of the ninth inning, Shay put on a glove and played in the right field. Even though no hits came his way, he was obviously ecstatic just to be in the game and on the field, grinning from ear to ear as his father waved to him from the stands. In the bottom of the ninth inning, Shay's team scored again. Now, with two outs and the bases loaded, the potential winning run was on base and Shay was scheduled to be next at bat.

At this juncture, do they let Shay bat and give away their chance to win the game? Surprisingly, Shay was given the bat. Everyone knew that a hit was all but impossible because Shay didn't even know how to hold the bat properly, much less connect with the ball.

However, as Shay stepped up to the plate, the pitcher, recognizing that the other team was putting winning aside for this moment in Shay's life, moved in a few steps to lob the ball in softly so Shay could at least make contact. The first pitch came and Shay swung clumsily and missed. The pitcher again took a few steps forward to toss the ball softly towards Shay. As the pitch came in, Shay swung at the ball and hit a slow ground ball right back to the pitcher.

The game would now be over. The pitcher picked up the soft grounder and could have easily thrown the ball to the first baseman. Shay would have been out and that would have been the end of the game.

Instead, the pitcher threw the ball right over the first base man's head, out of reach of all team mates. Everyone from the stands and both teams started yelling, 'Shay, run to first! Run to first!' Never in his life had Shay ever run that far, but he made it to first base. He scampered down the baseline, wide-eyed and startled.

Everyone yelled, 'Run to second, run to second!' Catching his breath, Shay awkwardly ran towards second, gleaming and struggling to make it to the base. By the time Shay rounded towards second base, the right fielder had the ball ..... The smallest guy on their team who now had his first chance to be the hero for his team. He could have thrown the ball to the second-baseman for the tag, but he understood the pitchers intentions so he, too, intentionally threw the ball high and far over the third-base man's head. Shay ran toward third base deliriously as the runners ahead of him circled the bases toward home.

All were screaming, 'Shay, Shay, Shay, all the Way Shay'

Shay reached third base because the opposing shortstop ran to help him by turning him in the direction of third base, and shouted, 'Run to third! Shay; run to third!'

As Shay rounded third, the boys from both teams, and the spectators, were on their feet screaming, 'Shay, run home! Run home!' Shay ran to home, stepped on the plate, and was cheered as the hero who hit the grand slam and won the game for his team.

'That day', said the father softly with tears now rolling down his face, 'the boys from both teams helped bring a piece of true love and humanity into this world'.

Shay didn't make it to another summer. He died that winter, having never forgotten being the hero and making his father so happy, and coming home and seeing his Mother tearfully embrace her little hero of the day!

THE PROPOSAL!!!!

Well it's OFFICIAL :) Cameron and I are truly getting married. Last night he proposed. It was perfect!!! I was totally surprised!! Even though I knew it was coming any day. I really didn't think it was going to happen yesterday. Because going for the walk was my idea, wait it is always my idea! haha Well I'll give yall the scoop! Our friend Jeff has a Honda Shadow and is kind enough to let us take it out for rides pretty much whenever we want. So we decided to take it out for a ride up Logan Canyon to the River Trail. One of our new favorite places to walk. The trail is about 3 miles or so but we usually don't ever do the whole thing because we walk when the sun is starting to go down. We walked for about an hour or so up the trail and up the cut backs.. and Cameron complained the whole time... I'm tired! My feet hurt!! hahaha He's my little lazy butt!!! So we decided to turn around and start heading back to the bottom and when we were getting near to the end he plopped down on a big rock and said "I need a rest" so we sat there for awhile and talked and kissed of course! Thats when he Popped the Question!!! "Will you do me a favor?" he asked.."Yep What?" I replied.... "Will You Be My Wife?"..... "YES"!! I replied after my heart skipped a beat!!! Then he said... "Guess what I brought??" and he pulled the ring out of his pocket. Then he slipped it on my finger... I never thought my hand would look so funny when I got to wear such a beautiful thing!!! I cut my nail bed in the shower that morning with my razer blade! hahaha Hense the "CARS" band-aid!! hahaha I can't even begin to express what a LUCKY girl I am to snag such an amazing person that I don't deserve!! I'm so excited to be with him FOREVER!!! What an amazing day!!! Motorcycles, Water, Mountains, Walking and being with him!!!!

Random Friday Night! One of the BOYS!!!!

Last Friday at work a bunch of the boys decided they wanted to go out riding after work. So around 7pm we met up at John's house in River Heights area and headed out from his house. We drove through some neighborhoods and above the Island where all the Rich Houses are and drove straight threw a park!! hahaha it was great we all felt like we needed to fast because I'm sure that we would have gotten in trouble if we had been caught. We went out behind those houses and against the deer fence. We found some pretty good hills to climb :) And I only tipped over ONCE!!! Earlier that night when Cameron and I were loading up our bikes in the back of his truck. When I stepped into the back of his truck to put his bike in I heard a RIP!!! Haha I couldn't really see anything. But while we were all going up and down this hill I looked down and this is what I saw!! HAHAH HUGE HOLE!!!! hahahah no worries they all got a big laugh at it!! :) and it just kept getting bigger :)

Big Secret!!


Well I officially told my parents about my dirt bike :) haha last weekend when Cameron and I went down to Price we loaded up our bikes so we could go out and ride behind my parents house. I have had my bike for a month or so and only Jordan and Audrey knew about it. I told my mom that I had a secret a few days before we came down and that I knew Dad would like but I wasn't sure how she would feel about it. But anyways! It was sure fun having Cameron teach me how to ride. I think I did pretty good for a First Timer!! :) hahaha Jordan and Liesel came with us and we went for a ride up toward the Waterfall. I only ATE IT! Twice :) hahaha ... the last time the back end got away from me in the mud and I laid it down on it's right side. But when I got up my "left side" was muddy! Who knows how that happened :)

BYE BYE NEON!!!!


Well... Saturday we officially SOLD Cameron's Car!!! He's been trying for about two or three weeks. So we drove down to Bountiful Saturday morning to drop it off at his friend Nate's (he bought it) and then we just spent the weekend at Franklin and Jeanette's (Cameron's Parents). Sunday after church I got to meet his Grandpa Harry and Grandma Doris. They are so cute! When we drove back from their place Cameron didn't feel good so we ended up staying at his parents house again Sunday night and just getting up at the butt crack of dawn to drive back to Logan to be to work by 9:00am!! Then we drove down again Monday after work because he had made plans with the dealership he was buying his new lil Ford Ranger from to pick it up first thing Tuesday morning. So I'm sure Jeanette and Franklin were sick of me! Three nights in a row!! hahaha jk... I love them! They are amazing people. Well that about it for me.. I'm just going to spend the rest of my week lonely! Cameron went to Coral Pink Sand Dunes with the guys for Spring Break!

Getting this started!!

Well.. I tried doing this once before and apparently I didn't do to well. As you can see it's be forever since I tried to do anything to it :) Life up here in good old Logan is cold and I'm SICK OF THE SNOW!!!! I'm getting really impatient for spring. Lots has happened since I have last written or tried to do this. So I'll just give a sum of it all. I started a new job back in November at Cache Honda Yamaha as Accounts Payable and assistant to the accountant. So thats good and it lead me to an amazing guy! :) So we've kinda been dating since Christmas time but more officially just this last month :) His name is Cameron, he's from Bountiful and going to school up here to be a Commercial Pilot. We both love all the same things! well almost... ;) he's not much into hunting but he's not against it so thats a plus :) That pretty much my life these days :) I'll try and keep this up!!!!
