Iowa 2009...

I had a great trip back to Iowa. It was so fun being with my brother and his family. MY parents came on Saturday and stayed with us through Sunday. My brother, sister and sister in law all went out to dinner last night and had a great time together while the grandparents babysat. I wish they lived closer to me. MY neices and nephew are growing way too fast. The pictures are of this weekend.

I HEART GAVIN!!!

Tonight Kelli, Becca and I went to the Des Moines Art Festival. They were having a free concert with Collective Soul and Gavin DeGraw. When we were walking in Becca spotted Gavin and I asked him if we could take our picture with him. I told him I loved his new album and I just saw him in San Diego and he high fived me. HOLLA! It was a great concert. He played a lot off of his first two albums. It was hot, humid and sprinkled drops of rain but it was SWEET!!!

*Tonight I am thankful for Becca and the time we got to spend together today! Love you Sister!

Travels...

I have not been in the blogging mood and am taking a nice little break this summer. I have a lot going on the next couple months and will be doing some traveling. i already went to Vegas and last weekend I took a cruise with three dear friends.
Here are some pictures from the cruise. We had a great time relaxing, eating a lot, and just being together. I leave tommorow for Iowa and can't wait to see my brother and family. Kelli and Ivy get to go too so it will be extra fun.

*Today I am thankful that in a few short hours I get to see Kyle, Becca, Mayah, Mason and Madison!!!!YEAH!!!!

Would You Rather Wednesday?!?!

"Would you rather have your eulogy delivered by Barrak Obama or Brad/Angelina?"

*Today I am thankful for a cool breeze.

Would You Rather Wednesday?!?!

"On a cross country flight would you rather sit next to a heavy breather or a 2 year old child?" Death is not an option.

*Today I am thankful for the SUN!

Would You Rather Wednesday?!?!

"Would you rather be able to highlight with your finger or be able to induce nosebleeds in people on live TV?"
Death is not an option. Things to consider: political debates, news anchors and NBA games.

*Today I am thankful for peanut butter filled pretzels.

Happy Birthday Kyle...

Happy Birthday to my brother Kyle. I love you and am so thankful for you. I am so proud of the husband and dad you have become. I love the way you care for, provide and love your family. Wish I could kick it with all of you today. Can't wait to see you in two weeks. LOVE YOU!

Would You Rather Wednesday?!!?

"Would you rather live without your cell phone for 30 days or have no access to computers/internet for 30 days?!?"

*Today I am thankful for all the days my computer DOES work.
