MOAB












Moab Utah might be one of the most beautiful places that I have ever been to in my life to this point. My Dad and Roger took the comany and their famlies for our second anual Moab jeep safari trip. We had so much fun. The weather was perfect between 70-80' the whole time. There were 40 of us and 12 jeeps. I drove the whole day on sunday and I loved it. Most of you would of died when you saw some of the trails I did. A little scarry but I loved it. Most of the kids in the pics are the barkers kids. I love them. Kate Anne and Jarom are the kids. We did a great hike and climbed a few crazy rocks. We also ate lots of great food and enjoyed good conversation. No injuries occured and other than a few sick nights for a few people it all went great. We didnt want to come home to this horrible weather but thats life.

Poor Me

So yesterday I decided i couldn't take it anymore. I was having the worst womanly pains ever! My mom told me to take some of her pain medicine called Tramadol. So around 1:00 in the afternoon i took the pill. Around 230 I started to feel a little dizzy and nauseous so I left work and headed home. When I got home my friend Kim was there to get her hair done and after 15 minutes of applying her color I couldn't take it any more, so i excused myself and went to the bathroom and lost my lunch. This was the beginning of a night of throwing up. I called the pharmacist and she said that the pill was way too strong for me and it would take 8-12 hours to feel better and to get it out of my system. Well she was sure right because at 2 am I stoped throwing up and I started to feel better. It was horible. I thought I was dying and I sure looked like it. When I woke up this morning I felt like I had gotten hit by a car. I could barely move out of bed and into the shower. Work was interesting today and I was relieved to be done. So my lesson for the week was that I will NEVER take Tramadol ever again!!!! Sorry if this was too much info for you all but I had to blog about it.

Bret's Bowling Birthday Bash


















It was that time of year again.....Bret's birthday. This year we went to none other than Fat Cat's. We all had so much fun. Between Taylor killin all of us with a score of 230(Lets be honest), that adorable baby Stella, the delish pizza and cheesecake, and the wonderfull birthday boy it couldn't of been a better night. Jim did a great job putting it all together. Thanks Jim. Happy Birthday Bret. We love you. Sorry there were too many cute pics I had to post them all.

California!!











It was my grandpas 80th birthday and what more of a reason did we need to go to California. So me my mom and dad all left and went to sunny california for the weekend. We had a party on saturday for him and it was so fun. I spent a lot of time with my favorite little boy Archer and the sweet baby Della Bell. There was a lot of eating done at all our favorite restraunts....The Crab Cooker, Don Jose, The Elephant Bar, Jack in the Box and In and out. So the diet will be in full force starting now. We also went to the swap meet and got spoiled with Aunt Sharon at her office with chemical peels and other fun treatments. It brought back lots of memories being back at that office. Bad and good but mainly painfull memories. Dr. Nicole wanted to see his work and see what I wasnt happy with but I was a little relieved when he was not there when we got there. From the office we went straight to the airport where we found out that our plane was delayed 2 hours. I wont even get into it but it was probably one of the worst experiences I have ever experienced. Horrible.....from annoying girls from a dance team to sitting on the plane for 45 minutes and then finding out that we couldnt leave because our pilot was over on his hours. It was a bad night to say the least. Other than that we had a great trip!!! Oh and the picture of the house is our old house that I grew up in. So cute and little.
