monster jam at angel stadium....

Saturday night I met up with Matt and Belize to attend the monster jam at Angel Stadium. Does it surprise any of you that this event was sold out on a Saturday night in Southern California? Well, it turned out to be a very enjoyable night with great company.

"BE GOOD AND DON'T HIT"

Grandpa Emmett

If there were ever greater words to live by these are them. I can remember from a very young age my grandfather saying this to all the grandchildren before we left the twin pine ranch. I love and adore my grandfather for all the wonderful advice and wisdom he has shared over my 27 years of life. I was especially grateful for him when I showed up from skiing while in college and had just broken my right thumb and sprained the left. He found me the best doctor and my grandparents were there to help me recover and make sure I was well taken care of during the 3 month recovery time. Here is the first quote of the new year with many more to come.

Jack & Lily

When you don't have kids of your own I guess this means I get to brag about my niece and nephew. I took these pictures after Christmas while we were hanging around my grandparents home. I am doing a trip in February so that will be the next time I get to see them.

New Year with a New Toy

I am so happy for a new year with lots of new adventures a head. I have set some new goals and have new hobbie's I plan to take up. I was spoiled for Christmas by my parents with a LAP TOP and also purchased my own toy the Nikon D90. This camera is amazing and I can't wait to really learn how ot use it. HAPPY NEW YEAR FRIENDS!

Reunited

I met Ivy in 2004 and we basicly lost touch shortly after she started the MBA program at BYU. She moved to Texas and it was just not that easy to stay in touch. I just love when you have friends that you can pick right back up again as if you never lost touch. We met for lunch in Laguna and managed to get a few pictures together.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 2009

Hope your New Years was Amazing!

"Live by Faith not by Fear"

A white Christmas

Here are my first shots taken with my new Nikon D90. This camera is pretty amazing and I am looking forward to the new year to learn how to take cool pics. It was a very white snowy Christmas week.

Quote 12-22-08

"It's kind of hot here in Aurora, probably around 30 degrees."

~Elder Emmett

Well this quote is meant to be funny for anyone that does not get emails from my little brother. He said this just two days after Aurora CO had one of the coldest days in over ?? years. ( I need to find the number) I decided to quote him because not only is he the funnest little brother but also an amazing missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. I am counting down to Christmas this week when we will be able to talk on the phone. Merry Christmas to all may the season be joyful.

So adorable

So sorry to my brother John to steal this photo off his blog but I can't help but want to share with all of you my o so adorable niece Lily. I will be spending the next week in Utah and hanging out with Jack and Lily. Merry Christmas!

Quote 12-15-08

This is the first time I have forgotten to do my Monday quote. Yesterday was packed with work followed by a 3 hour family home evening and late night shopping. I have a bunch of posts in the works and hope to post photos before I leave on vacation for 9 days. Todays quote is a song that I love to sing with my family over the holidays. My home in Irivne is wonderful but my second and third home is at my grandparents in Logan Utah. Safe travels to all to your homes.

Oh, there’s no place like home For the holidays, ’cause no matter How far away you roam If you want to be happy in a million ways For the holidays, you can’t beat Home, sweet home.
