A Great Weekend

So I had a very full weekend, starting with a trip to the Getty with Mom. She had never gone before and I think she enjoyed it. The first garden we saw was a wonderful desert landscape that someone here in SoCal would never see. Mom was not to thrilled with that one. Then she was happy to the better gardens.
That night Sarah came and spent the night at my house and the next day we went to breakfast and then Jon and Liz came over and we had a BBQ and went swimming. Then I took her home and then took her to do karaoke. She sang "I feel Pretty," "I dreamed a dream," and "Popular." She really had a good time as you can see.


Then I was able to spend Sunday at home after church, which as loads of fun since it was the week to combine RS & PH we did not stay in primary and instead I got to hear a lesson on strengthening Marriage Relationships. UGH!!!! Then on Monday, Mom, Day, Denny, Jimmy, Sarah and myself all went out to Emilie's house to visit. Her house looks so great, and she is doing great at school, I am so proud of her. It was just depressing to have to return to work today, but oh well.

Four DAY Weekend

I am feeling like I am going through Olympic with drawls now that it is over. No more staying up till 1 p.m. to watch gymnastics and swimming or waking up at 5 a.m. to catch the end of the games. And yes I actually watched the Marathons and table tennis. What will I do with myself. Since T.V. is crap right now it leaves me wandering channels and forced to watch the Democratic National Convention. UGH! But at lease we get Friday off so we will be having a four day weekend. I hopefully will at least go somewhere interesting rather than just staying home and watching old 90's shows on TNT or Saved by the Bell on TBS. Also excited for the 25th of September because The OFFICE is back on, HUURRAAAHH! Then finally good T.V. will be back.

A New Poll

Have fun with this poll, but keep in mind this is my blog and I can get rid of anybody who has a higher vote than me. AUHHHAAAHAAAHAAA (Evil Laugh) Also keep in mind that Sarah can't be every bodies favorite. You can vote for as many people as you want at one time.

Teresa, Eric and Rachel's Visit

Teresa, Eric, and Rachel have been visiting SoCal and they just came to my house and went swimming after we went to Golden Spoon, here are the pictures of them there. As Rachel didn't win the poll this time I'm not sure if I should be showing these photos since for now Kerri's kids are my favorite.

Ginger Clinton's Funeral

As many of you are aware Ginger Clinton's funeral was yesterday and I went with Mom and Dad. It was a really nice service. Her brother talked about her life and her sister told some really funny memories of her. One of the stories was about how she and Ginger had planned a "camping" trip in their parents backyard for Thanksgiving. But a few weeks ago when the whole family was in town for a wedding Ginger changed the day to that night. So Ginger and her two oldest girls and Ginger's mom and sister all spent the night together and one of her daughters said it was the best night of her life. Hopefully they will remember that night their whole life. Then her brother-in-law talked about the plan of salvation and how Ginger will be with them forever. He did a terrific job of explaining it, he used an allegory about a trip he and his wife took with Jason and Ginger and travelling down an river on an inner tube and going into rock tunnels. It made me wonder if the talk was for non-members or to remind all the members of the blessing we have everyday.

Cruise Ended and Slide Show

So after we cleaned up from Cabo we had our last gala dinner, a little caviar and baked Alaska goes a long way. But we were so exhausted we went back to our room and crashed till our wake up call at 11:15 p.m. so we could go see the gala midnight buffet and take pictures. The buffet was such fun they created these amazing creations out of food, vegetables, and fruit. But we were to exhausted to stay and eat instead we went back to bed only to wake up in the morning with aching muscles, but a quick dip in the pool quickly took care of that. Our last day was a simple day of relaxing and reading, what a break. Last night we got a call from Sarah asking us when mom was coming home because she was very nervous. Mom calmed her down by promising her a present. This morning we said or goodbye to our beautiful balcony our final meal and waited to be called to debark. We quickly got to our car and the first thing Sarah said to me when she saw me was where is my present. We have trained her well.
