Beijing 2008

Alright who is excited about the Olympics!!! - I AM!!!!

This week at work we have been talking about how much we are looking forward to watching. Jenny, Kim and I have been practicing our Olympic dismount. I am getting really good. Jenny really stepped it up on the Vault ( RUN Kimmy) and Kim well I have decided that she could have done just about anything. Seriously ask her to show you her discus throw. - love you girls :) GO USA!!!

BD

Breaking Dawn here. It has been a week since "the Book" came out and if any of you know me at all then you already know that I am already finished. I went to Walmart at 12:00am to get a head start. Yes I am a big nerd but I felt a lot less nerdy when my friend Ashley got there. (Thanks for standing in line with me Ash and Bryce we are not weird like all those girls.) I finished on Saturday night and I loved it. I do think that this book was a lot more adult then the other ones. Maybe it will be different when I actually have kids but I'm not sure that I will let my teenagers read it. Who knows maybe I will feel differently at that point.

Katelyn

Welcome to the world baby Katelyn!! I got to go the the hospital and see this little angel. Congrats Scott and Cheryse she is such a beauty. I can't wait to help spoil her.

Garrett and Adele

On June 14th I was able to go to Snowflake and celebrate my cousin Garrett's wedding. I was amazed to realize that he was old enough to get married not that he isn't mature enough but that enough time had passed for it to be possible. Time really does fly.

Garrett wanted a rice crispy treat wedding cake. My Aunt Wilda, cousin Penny and I all pitched in and I think that it turned out pretty good.

Garrett and Adele's new Puppy Reggie. Isn't he so cute!!

Cole did great in his little league game the day before the wedding. It was nice to take a break and take in some baseball!!

At the end of it all we were all a little worn out but very happy to be a part of Garrett and Adele's big day. I wish them all of the luck in the world.

Family

This is a picture of my family after my grandma funeral. It seems like for the past few weeks we have seen a lot of each other. We are all given only one family and I am lucky that I got to be a part of this one. Also thanks for all the kind thought and support after the loss of my Grandma Lofgreen.

Graduation

Congrats to both Jamie and Wyatt for making it through High School. Good Luck in all that you do in the future!!

American Idol

Well I am going to admit to being a fan of American Idol. I try not to get to obsessed so I try not to watch until the top 24. This year I did really good so I had no idea who anyone was. Itwas kind a nice because usually I get sucked in but there "stories". So week one comes and I watch and I know that no one is going to believe me but I liked David Cook. Seriously he was my favorite, now don't get me wrong I also like little David A. and he sure does have an amazing voice so I was glad that it came down the them in the end. I was appalled but the comments on the last show and swore that if someone (the judges) didn't apologize to David Cook I would NEVER watch again. Good thing Simon (of all people - it should have been Randy) gave me an excuse to watch again next year.

New Baby

Wanted to welcome the newest addition to the RME family. Congrats Scarlett. He sure is a cutie!!

Office FUN

A while back our office got together and took in a baseball game. I want to know who was the unlucky person that came because the DBack played horrible. We had a great time although it is still possible that I am still pulling peanuts out of my hair.

The singles

hmmmm....I think that Mark Reynolds looks pretty good in his baseball pants!!

Cody and Leyla - Sooo Cute

New Paint

Thought that I would share my latest pictures of my bedroom. It is a work in progress and this week my dad and mom came and painted. I think it turned out pretty good. I even added curtains. Thanks for helping Dad!

Where have I been???

Well I am finally going to sit down tonight and try to do an update. Just like all of you I have been pretty busy these last few months. Here are a few things that I have been doing:

Home improvements:I am trying to put more time and effort into my condo. I recently purchased some new bedroom furniture and after a few weeks I am still very happy with it. Here is the bedding the a bought to go with it and I hope to paint and do some decorating soon.

Work: I am still working are RME and am really happy there. Some of you may know about the recent opportunity that I was given to do something a little different. With the help of the Lord and my parents I made the decision to say both in Mesa and at RME. I haven't regretted it one day. Don't get me wrong I work hard and to home pretty tired most evenings but I think that it is a place that I can be happy for a long time to come. I have made some incredible friends there that I will have for life. Right now we have a very close office staff that gets alone great with few exceptions. I am proud to be part of the RME family. Here are a few of my co-worker are our Queen Creek open house. And here is the newest addition to our RME family:

Personal: On Monday my family and I attended the D-Backs home opener. I was so much fun. Everyone should take in a game this year. The team has some great players and they have the chance to go far this year. Also the 14 million dollar scoreboard was unveiled and it was amazing.

So that is the latest on me. I will try harder to update more often but who knows. I do have some family events coming up so I might update so often that you will all be sick of me.
