California Christmas







This year was the Cali year for Christmas. Even though we were just in CA for Thanksgiving, I couldn't miss out on another trip down there. I worked until a few days before Christmas Eve so we ended up flying down on Christmas Eve. We tried out a different airport this trip and landed in Long Beach. It is basically two portables stuck together manned by 6 workers. The best thing about a small airport though is fast luggage! It beat us out of the terminal.
The weather in CA was great and we had such a wonderful time. We got to meet my familys new friends Jeremy and Vicky and I consider knowing them a blessing. I'm excited to meet their little baby girl this summer.
Tyler and I also got to go visit some of my extended family. Tyler has only ever met two of my uncles and their wives. Unfortunately, my family doesn't get together as much as we used to, and when they do, I'm usually not in town. It was really fun getting to see some of my cousins and meet their kids. We made a visit to Corona to see Sara and Nic and Tyler was basically in heaven. nic works for Pimco and can speaks Tylers stock market language. We kept that poor couple up half the night!
Christmas day was great. We got some awesome gifts and are thankful for my family for making it so fun. Im going to just throw on a few photos from the event!

Jumpstart 2011: 11 Ways to a New You Wellness Conference and Fair

Im not one for New Years resolutions, mainly because I can't keep them. However it is an ongoing goal of mine to stay fit and healthy.
My lovely sister in law is the queen of this and has been asked to speak at the Jumpstart 2001 Conference put on by Natural Momma 4 U. I took a look at all the vendors and decided that I need to be there! It looks like a great place to learn how to live a better life. The Conference is on January 22nd from 10 till 2 at Noahs in Lindon. I'll be there, will you?

I'm attaching a link for the registration because this is the easiet way for me to get you to the event!

Our family is growing!


No we aren't having a baby, sorry world.
But this puppy might as well be one with all the attention he requires. And I swear Toby gives me the "get this annoying new kid away from me" face. Right this second Oliver (our new pup) is running back and forth barking his head off because Toby wont share his bone. Toby just keeps chewing on that bone.
Oliver is Brittany formaly know as a Brittany Spaniel, but awhile ago the dropped their second name, which I think makes him pretty legit, like Madonna or Cher.
He is a pointer by nature, which is a reason we got him. Tyler plans on using him to hunt.
The best part of all is he is adorable, just look at this face.
