Introducing my neice Lily Ann

When it comes to being an Aunt I could not be more thrilled for number 2. I am just sad I have to wait four days to meet her. When I heard Beth was having a girl I went out and did what I do best by shopping for her first little dress. Her story and how she arrived into the Emmett family can be found at Emmettdoggies. I am off to Utah Friday night to meet this tiny princess and spend three nights with my siblings. I am so proud of Beth and am looking forward to being the best Aunt to Jack Jack and Lily.

Mothers Day 2008

First this blog is to pay tribute to my AMAZING mother. She has been extremely selfless for the last 27 years of my life. I will forever be grateful to have her as a mother and role model for me when I begin to raise my own family. I appreciate her hard work and dedication to this family and providing love for me and my three brothers. The second purpose of my Mothers Day blog is giving my shout out to my younger brother Mikey! He has been serving in the Denver Colorado South Mission. Just 11 months out and he was made zone leader a week or so ago. I am very proud of him and his accomplishment in the mission. I am just counting down the minutes today till he calls and reports. This Mothers Day I am grateful for my mother and the opportunity to speak with my brother.

Out to dinner just weeks before leaving

Michael just finished running the Ogden Marathon May 2007

Summer Concert

My summer plans are looking up. I have some vacations planned and weekend trips. I also plan on seeing One Republic on July 12 at the Orange County Fair. Summer concerts are amazing!

Birthday Celebration at the Angels Game

This year for my birthday I celebrated that evening with friends at the Angels Game. I bought a birthday package which got everyone Angels bucks to spend on dinner and all these great hats. The Angles didn't pull out a win for the evening but that didn't stop us from having a great night. Earlier that day my co-workers and I went to lunch at Strawberry Farm. I was given some really thoughtful presents and really enjoyed my day. Thanks for all the emails, text messages and calls.
