Our little vaca......

Jason's vacation time is 9 days like normal except we usually go out of town on a big trip but we decided to stay here in Birmingham and gets some stuff done around our apartment and get him all rested up( we are going into his busy season for work). But while we were here in Birmingham we wanted to do a little something just to get out of the apartment for a long weekend. We drove about an hour away to a beautiful golf course in the middle of know where, it's called,"Farmlinks". It's 3500 acres of land with skeet shooting, they have long horned steer(which I am not quite sure what you do with them, but they were fun to look at!!! LOL!!)horseback riding, quail hunting(Dad it sounds like the ideal place for ya, you would love it!!)golfing and now they just added some lodging. They have a few cottages, cabins and one big lodge(which is a individual house they rent out with 8 bedrooms....crazy big huh!)on the property, which were amazingly beautiful and brand spankin' new. So here are some pictures of our little trip!




These are our good friends J.P. and Ashley Mendes, we invited them to come stay for a couple nights to hang out with us.


This was inside our cottage, it was the main area or common area, with four bedrooms.


One evening we had their executive chef come out to our cottage and cook us filet's and grouper, it was awesome...yummmmm!!!


At each house they have your own golf carts to drive around and most people use those instead of cars. At our place we had 4, that's one for each person......ohhhh and did I mention that they have head lights????? So yea, we all jumped on our own one night and played a little tag!! It was fun!

Ash and I decided one day to do our girlie stuff, you know just the deep hair conditioning, face masks, toe and finger nails and we even did the cucumbers(to bad we didn't get a pic of that tho..lol!). It's always fun to pamper yourself!!


Ohhhh and this is on a totally different note.....but Tink found a boyfriend who lives right above us named, Stimpy!!! He was a abused dog that just got rescued and his owner goes out of town often so we babysit a lot!!! She loves him, I think because he is so mild mannered(which is bizarre considering what he has been through) but he is an awesome dog and she's kind of a snob and doesn't like other dogs!! But they are just adorable together!

Playing a little catch up...

This was in Tulsa, OK at the Hard Rock Casino. We took a short little trip a couple weeks ago to meet up with some of our good friends, Roque and Christine....We love you guys!!!!


JP's getting a little target practice in, but Ash did go home with a huge Tweety bird!


Don't you just love the fair!!! And it's always great with fun people!!! Thanks Ash and JP!!

Cali Trip...

I just flew in from California yesterday evening, after being there for 2 weeks to help prepare for Denise's (my cousin) Wedding. It was a crazy busy couple of weeks...Denise kept us on our toes the whole time....J/K!! But I had a blast planning for the wedding and getting to spent some time with all the family, it was just to bad Jason had work and couldn't be there(but I told him next trip it won't be so easy to get out of LOL!!) It's always great to see all the family get together.


This is Katelyn (Danielle my cousins little girl) out shopping with the girls(my mom, Danielle and I)......isn't she so cute and trendy??!!!
My niece Sophia and I......isn't she just adorable with her cute pink bow!!!

This is my parents down at Cedar Street(where they rent out apartments). We had fun spending the day swimming and barbecuing.

We took the kids to Knott's Berry Farm one day since Aaron my nephew had never been before. He thought it was pretty cool!! Aaron with his dad my brother Chris.

This is Kent (my youngest brother), with (my cousin Danielle's littlest)Braden...they were good buddies!!

My mom and Katrina (my brother Chris's wife) ride a small kiddie ride....that was about as adventurous as she would get ....LOL!!
Denise just after she got married at the Los Angeles Temple, with her brother Kevin.
These were the bridesmaids: Tiffany(Ryan's sister is 8 months preggo), Myself and Danielle(Denise's older sister who is a couple months along). They were just hoping I would be preggo by then....but didn't happen yet!!
Kevin's wife Missa (isn't she adorable!), Aunt Robin, Danielle and her little one Katelyn.
And the happy just married couple Ryan and Denise Lang with all Danielle's little ones!!

Six Flags

Jason had a few days off in a round this last week so we decided to have a short little getaway. We decided to drive 2 hours to Atlanta and hang out for a couple days and maybe do some shopping. We realized it had been a long time since we had gone to a theme park.....so Six Flags sounded fun and excited!!! It's been a few years since I been on those crazy roller coasters. It's funny how it really does make to feel like a little kid again. Like when you are so anxious to go on the rides that you have butterflies in your stomach.... I love it!! We had a great time...it definitely put smiles on our faces. It is nice to get some fun and crazy down time away together just the 2 of us.



and of course you have to get those yummy dippin' dots!!!! They are our favorites!!! yummm

Playing Catch up........

Okay....now I am having to play catch up since it has been so long since I last posted. To get everyone up to date, I am now officially a resident in Birmingham, Alabama(never thought I would say that) with my husband. I have been here just over a month now and love it purely because I get to see Jason every single day. Our house has not sold but, it is being leased out right now to an executive gentlemen and his family for 10 months and possibly longer than that. We are hoping to lease it until the housing market turns back around.
I am currently not working here but plan to get a job mid July, due to the fact that Denise's wedding is in July 18th and I am going to be there a couple weeks and of course just starting a new job and then asking for a ton of time off(probably not a good idea). So for the next few weeks I am going to get our place here situated and take a little time off to spend with Jason.
These are just some random pictures from the last couple months that I have missed....



This was most recently about 2 weeks ago in Destin Florida. What was suppose to be a little romantic get away turned out to be quite interesting. Jason's famous kidney stones showed up....again!! So we spent most of our small vac in the emergency room, but I have to say it was the nicest and cleanest I have ever been in!! lol!

While in Utah for Women's Conference I had the opportunity to see a girlfriend that I hadn't seen in years, Tara Seely (and here adorable babers)!!

This was in Utah at the Shelley's with my Cousin Denise in our favorite yellow sun room of the house we stayed in.

This is my prego cousin Danielle towards the tail end of a long day at Women's Conference!! She was tired and taking a nap in between the bleacher seats!!

Our girls trip consisted of Denise, Aunt Robin, Danielle, my mom, Liz and Myself. While we were in Utah we did some wedding shopping for Denise and this is her pleading to be able to spend a little more money on "The Dress"!!!

On our way back from Utah to Cali we made a pit stop at our good old vacation stop when we were all kids, Uncle Bert's in Hurricane, Utah!!

Myself, Denise, Danielle, Uncle Bert, Aunt Robin and my mom at Uncle Bert's farm

Back in Cali with a good old friend Heather Buffington, and her little one in oven on the way...yeah!!!!

I always have to get pictures with Danielle's little ones cause they are my very favorite.
Aren't they just ohhh...sooo..adorable!!!

Had my 26th Birthday...and celebrated with a good friend of mine Tonja Perkins!


Because Jason was out of town at the time since we were living in separate places, my friend was trying to be nice and do something special for me. I was working that day and she brought this huge bouquet of balloons (1 with Happy Birthday Princess on it)into the restaurant and left them at my bar so all day long all my guests could know it's my birthday and to embarrass me horribly.....and it worked!!!
