Long Day

Yesterday at work I received an email about a spin class my friend Melissa was going to be leading and thought it would be fun to check out. I had never been to a spin class but heard they are great. The class was a AWESOME! Well I got a bike for Christmas in 2006 and have only put 120 miles on it. Can you say pathetic? Well you would think with everything being top of line around this house full of cyclist all the time I would have been out on it more often. With the New Year here that is a goal to start riding more to get ready for a sprint triathlon this year. It just needs to warm up in the mornings. I rather be out skiing in cold weather any day then out on my bike. Please feel free to check in and see if I am riding. :) To my riding partner Rachel first Wednesday in February I am there. Anyone up for running, swimming, or cycling let me know.
I must admit I do have it pretty nice when it comes to work usually. I spent 6 1/2 hours at IVC today sitting at the computer getting up just a few times. I got home today helped with dinner then ate and headed up to my computer to work my second job I do for a City Councilwoman. It is now 9:45 pm I am sick of staring at a computer. I figured if I was going to sit at the computer any longer I might as well blog about it. My morning began at 7am so I could make it to the 8:30 session at the Newport Beach temple. It has been a great day and am loving the new year! Off to do something other then sitting at my computer.

New Years Eve

This year for New Years I helped Aubrey host the party of the year! We had 219 RSVP and another 50+ show up that night. Huge success and I was happy to be part of it (even staying till 3am cleaning up the home). I took just over 100 pictures from the night but decided to just select a few. Here is to a GREAT 2008! You can see more pictures on Aubrey blog.

This was the first attempt in beginning once a month Sunday dessert socials. I invited people over on December 16 and might be planning another one on Jan. 20th. Thanks to everyone who was able to make it.

Christmas Photos

Another wonderful Christmas in Logan Utah. I ate a lot of great food, held a few babies, skied with my family, shoveled lots of snow, opened gifts, sang Christmas songs, played games and loved every minute.

LDS NEWS

15 December 2007 Two hundred graduating students at Brigham Young University-Hawaii were urged today to use the Internet — including blogs and other forms of “new media” — to contribute to a national conversation about The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Here is my first post on LDS news with more to come in the new year.

Christmas and New Years

This just may be my last post till the New Year. I am off to Utah December 20 and will be back in Orange County the 28th. For all those that voted on the dress thank you for suggestions. I found a dress and will be sure to show all of you in the New Years Eve photos. May you all be safe and healthy this season. Have a Very Merry Christmas and New Years!

A very Merry Christmas to all!

Christmas Boat Party

I crashed Huntington Beach Christmas party last year and just had to join in on the fun again. Just a few photos from Tuesday night on the boat cruising Newport Harbor. A very enjoyable evening with great friends.

Ready for a New Ski Season

Sundance Resort March 2006

I promise that is me in 2002 at Snowbasin

Deer Valley December 2006

Me with my favorite 4 year old student from Park City February 2006

I really enjoy winter and especially skiing. I was raised in a family who loves the outdoors and has so much love and passion for the sport. I just hope that since I don't live in the snow any more that I can make it up to Utah for a few trips this season. The days of skiing every day were really not that difficult and might need to consider that career again one day.
