HAPPY BIRTHDAY J.O. and MEL! (and some other stuff)...

Austin's entire family gets to spend the week of Thanksgiving in Pirates Cove and then Austin and I go from there to our 9 day cruise (thanks Platinum!). I am so excited! I wanted to post about a couple of things before we take off for the next few weeks.
HAPPY 23rd BIRTHDAY to my favorite brother in-law, Jordan! You are handsome, kind, loving, fun and very cool! =) WE LOVE YOU LOTS!

Leave it to yours truly to give him his first pair of 7 jeans. =)




Our sweet family at Jordan's birthday dinner.

HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY Mel, my lovely lady! You are a sweetheart and so beautiful! I am so glad we are friends and look forward to all of the fun times we will have together!


I absolutely love all of these cute ladies. They are some of the most beautiful, kind, and fun gals I know! I am so lucky to have them as friends! 
TWILIGHT the movie! Despite my initial reservations about the cast (especially Edward) I absolutely LOVED the movie! I am so excited for the sequels! 
I bought us tickets to the 2:30 AM showing on opening night--Austin wasn't too thrilled but he was a good sport to go to a "chick flick" in the wee hours just to please me! He did tell me (as he was fading off to sleep, finally in bed at 5:30 am) that the movie was better than he thought it would be--now I just need to get him to read the books! =) We are so thankful for friends that are crazy enough to go to a 2:30 am showing of a movie with us (well actually it was their idea--they rock!)

Platinum Red and Blue party.  Austin and Jason, the husband of my cute new neighbor, Missy, were heading up the party and they did a fabulous job!  Us ladies danced the night away. It was so much fun. I think it was a sneak peek of what our nights on the cruise will be like! YAY! Missy has some funny pictures of us getting our groove on so once she posts them I will steal them from her!




My friend, Jessica, from middle school got married last week up in Richmond (north of Logan). She looked so beautiful! They really are so perfect for each other! We are so happy for you two!

Awww! I am glad you posted pictures from last night! It turned out super great and I am glad that you made it! And about Monday, what time should we do it? I am also needing to do Amy Clarks toes too so I might as well knock them all out at once! :)

I am jealous of your upcoming cruise - hopefully it is to somewhere warm. I agree that I was nervous about the Edward they chose for the movie, but he definitely looked better in the movie than on the posters! I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Layla!! This is Amber (Pugmire) Johnson. I don't even know how I found your blog...I just saw the name Layla on some people's list and and figured it had to be you. Since I quit Uinta I don't hear any updates about you, but it looks like you've been having fun. I miss your mom and dad. They were very good people to work for.
