Trip to Cali

My mom, sisters and sister in-law and I, took a girls trip to California last weekend. We decided on the way there that the priorities of the trip were as follows: 1.Shop 2.Pee 3.Eat 4.Sleep
I would say that we definately, on a few occasions, did forgo eating and sleeping to shop, and the bathroom breaks were limited to emergencies only.:) We had so much fun just being together! We also went to the musical in L.A., Wicked! It was soooo amazing, I loved it. Here are a few pics from our trip!!

At the Orange County Swap Meet

Michele and I thought this pink dog was not so cute. We are at the South Coast Plaza Mall!

Lake Powell

Noah and I spent the past week in Lake Powell, or "Yake Towell" (as Noah would say) with my fam! Noah had about as much fun as a child could have I think. His favorite phrase on the trip was, "Come on mommy, it'll be fun!(with enthusiasum)" It was lots of fun for both of us. Here are a few pics from our week.

Love the goggles!

Noah calls the wakeboard a skateboard and was fully confident in his ability to ride it. I found him like this a few times on our trip, saying, "me skateboard mommy, come on it'll be fun." Hahaha I'm not so sure he is ready...what do you think?

Tube rides with grandpa!

Swimming...he was a little tense in the water, not so sure about the life jackets ability to make him float.:)

Noah had so much fun with his cousins! (Natalie's three boys Isaac, Luke and Kaleb)

Noah lovin the jet ski! Since mid afternoon naps were out of the question with everything fun going on all day, he even fell asleep twice while riding with me.

I learned to slolam ski...which was so much harder than wakeboarding! I need lots more practice to be as good as Nat and Matt!!


It was time to leave and Noah had to pack up his sand toys, which was very sad for him! This is his forced smile for one last picture LOL!

College Days

A few of my girlfriends from BYU came to Vegas for a few days last week. We met for dinner at the Wynn and then got pina coladas and sat outside to watch the free show they run every 30 minutes at The Lake of Dreams...totally fun. It was so fun to see them and to reminisce about all our fun times at BYU! Love these girls.
