St. Anthony's!!

This past weekend Greg and I went with my family up to the St. Anthony sand dunes in Idaho. We had so much fun! It was so nice to get away for a few days and have nothing to do. I finallly got to ride a four wheeler! I have not been able to since my accident. I was supposed to wait for one full year. But I figured that one month would not hurt anything, and it didn't! I had so much fun and forgot how much I love it at the sand dunes! We also took Greg's families Rhino. The little kids loved it so much! They were constantly wanting to go for rides. They would also just play in it and pretend they were driving! Everything was great...well after we fixed our truck.





On the way up we had a little problem. We were driving and heard this huge bang. It sounded like we blew a tire. So Greg and I both got out and checked our sides. There was no flat tire, so we got in and continued driving. As soon as we started driving we could hear this clunking noise. We got out and looked under the truck and could see that something by the front left tire had come loose. We were about a mile from camp so we just drove there very slowly. When we got there we took off the tire and found out that 5 of the 6 bolts and come off and the last one on was bent. But it was fixable! All we had to do was go buy some bolts! We were so lucky! When it happend Greg and I were so nervous that we would have to take it to a shop. But we didn't. It was an easy fix and we made it home! Tyla and I helped so much as you can see.



Once the truck was fixed it was time to play!



Greg and I had so much fun with Ayden and Mack in the Rhino! Greg kept taking us threw sprinklers.



It was so much fun to go riding with Greg again.



We also enjoyed the Rhino at night. Look how bright that moon was!



There was a CRAZY lighting storm one night. The dark picture is how the sky would look when there was no lightining. But as soon as the lighting struck the whole sky would light up! And it wasn't the bolt lighting either, it was just the flashing lighting. It was so neat! It lite up the sky so much.

Greg and I, and Greg and Tyla all sat on the truck until it started pouring rain. We then moved into the trailer to watch the storm. The Greg's can't pull a normal face.






This is my nephew. He is the cutest little guy in the world. I just love him! He is obsessed with Greg, or should I say Cannon Greg. That is what my niece and nephew call him. Mack always wants to be with him and does everything that he does. My family jokes that Greg is Macks boyfriend. He loves him and has no problem saying it.

Insomnia???

Something is wrong with me. I dont sleep at nights. I don't know what my deal is, but it's driving me nuts!! They past few nights I have not really slept. It takes me forever to fall asleep, and once I do I wake up and can not go back to bed. I am so tired everyday and can't wait to get home to go to sleep. I have even been trying to go to bed early. It doesn't work. I just lay there and toss and turn. Poor Greg. I must drive him nuts at night. I am adjusting every two minutes to a new position trying to find a way to fall asleep. I think its time that I move to the couch if I still cant fall asleep. I think I might have insomnia..and I know I sound crazy. Greg thinks I should start taking sleeping pills. I just don't want to. I hate taking pills and am always so nervous that I won't be able to get off them. But if I dont get a good nights rest soon I think I will have to.

I have always had this problem. There will be a week were I don't sleep. But then the next week I will be just fine and have no problem. This week is one of those sleepless weeks. Im really hoping that tonight will be different and I will sleep the whole night through. I sound like an infant baby who's mom is just hoping they will sleep that night. I'm crossing my fingers and will hope the sheep I count will put me to sleep. Wish me luck!

This past weekend was one of my best friends wedding. It was so much fun and so pretty. We spent Friday night at Old Spaghetti Factory for the wedding dinner. Then Saturday afternoon it was off to Mill Creek Canyon for the wedding. It was so pretty up there. Everything was green and the rain was holding off!! The ceremony was beautiful and I even cried a little. The rain didn't hold all day. She had to move her garden reception to a mortuary... Her grandpa owns one and so they had it there. She was so lucky that the mortuary was so pretty! Her reception was great. You didn't even know you were in a mortuary. And unfortunately I forgot to take pictures there! Im so mad at myself! But I did take pictures at the ceremony! 


This is Greg and I at the point of the mountain on the way home from the wedding dinner. It was so foggy we could not believe it! We just had to get out and take some pictures. It looks a little creepy.


Greg and I got there a little early. So we took some pictures before the ceremony started.



This is Allyssa and Noah. They looked so great and were so happy! I love them and am so glad they got married. They are just perfect for each other! (Don't you just love her dress, Its so unique and was perfect for her!)


I really wish I had pictures of her reception to show. It was so cute and I just loved it! Maybe I will be able to steal someones soon and share them.

I choped my hair!

I cut my hair about a week ago and have been bugged to post some pictures. I had my head shaved back in the beginning of August for my brain surgery. I have just been waiting for it to grow out long enough to cut it. I had extensions after the shaving took place. They were pretty great. They looked like my natural hair and no one could tell the difference! But after 10 months I was getting so sick of them. The clips were killing my head and I was ready to be done with them. My sister Kylie checked out the length of my hair and it was long enough to pull off a style!! I was so excited! We went to her salon on Sunday and chopped it off. I even colored it to my natural color. I am no longer blonde. Hello dark brown!! It took awhile to get used to it. But I think I finally am. It was so weird to wash my hair and have nothing there. But I absolutly love it.

This is me with half a shaved head.. the worst hair cut I ever had.

This is a VERY pretty picture of me! But this is the side of my head with the extensions. You can't even tell!

This is the new me! Im still learning how to style it myself. It looks so much better when my sister does it
