FISHING WITH THE BOYS

MONDAY NIGHT I HEADED OUT TO WEST WEBER WITH ZACH AND CODY TO DO SOME "CATFISHING". WE WENT OUT AT DUSK CAUSE I GUESS THATS WHEN THE FISHING IS BEST. ZACH HAS BEEN DYING TO CATCH A CATFISH. THESE 2 BOYS ALWAYS MAKE ME LAUGH. I LOVE THE CRAZY CLOTHES THEY DECIDED TO WEAR. THE 2 OF THEM WANTED TO DRESS ALIKE. THEY REMINDED ME OF GIRLS....WATCHING THEM IN ZACHS ROOM DECIDING WHAT TO WEAR WAS SO FUNNY! AND THEY THOUGHT THEY LOOKED SO "HOT". YA, TO GO FISHING...LOL!!

WELL, ZACH THREW OUT HIS BAIT AND WITHIN 5 MINUTES HE HAD A BITE! HE WAS SO DANG EXCITED! I WAS LAUGHING SO HARD...HE WAS SCREAMING AND JUMPING UP AND DOWN. CODY AND I HAD TO REMIND HIM THAT HE HAD A FISH ON HIS LINE!YEP, HE CAUGHT THE MOTHER LODE OF A CATFISH!!!! WE WERE ALL LAUGHING SO HARD! ZACH DIDN'T CARE THOUGH HE WAS STILL PROUD OF HIS CATCH. HE JUST KEPT SAYING " I CANT BELIEVE I CAUGHT A CATFISH!" OVER AND OVER... SO HE RELAESED HIS "BIG" FISH AND THREW IN HIS BAIT AGAIN. WITHIN JUST A FEW MINUTES ZACH HAD ANOTHER BITE! JUMPING UP AND DOWN, SCREAMING HE PULLED IN HIS SECOND CATCH OF THE EVENING.... I THINK THIS ONE WAS SMALLER THAN THE FIRST! WE WERE ALL LAUGHING PRETTY HARD! ZACH WAS LIKE " TAKE A PICTURE! TAKE A PICTURE!" CODY DIDN'T CATCH ANYTHING :(
I WISHED WE COULD HAVE STAYED LONGER BUT CODY HAD A CURFEW SO WE HEADED FOR HOME. YOU CAN PROBABLY GUESS THAT 2 TEENAGED BOYS HAVE SOOO MUCH TO SAY. I AM ALWAYS GIGGLING AT THEM AND THEIR FUNNY STORIES. YOU KNOW HANGING OUT WITH MY SON IS SO REWARDING FOR ME. HE IS 14 AND STILL WANTS TO SPEND TIME WITH ME. HE IS SUCH AN AMAZING KID AND I ALWAYS HAVE SUCH A GOOD TIME WITH HIM!!

KENNY CHESNEY CONCERT

AS MOST OF YOU KNOW....I AM A HUGE FAN OF KC !!!SO DISAPPOINTED THAT HE DIDN'T COME TO S.L.C. LAST SUMMER ON HIS TOUR...BUT HE MADE UP FOR IT ON THURSDAY!! RENEE AND I HEADED DOWN TO RIO TINTO STADIUM IN SANDY. LET ME TELL YOU WHAT...IT WAS HOT!!!!MY CAR TEMP SAID 104 DEGREES AT 4:30 WHEN WE ARRIVED. MY SHIRT WAS DRENCHED AND MY HAIR WAS DRIPPING WITH SWEAT AND WE HAVEN'T EVEN DONE MUCH OTHER THAN WALK A SHORT DISTANCE. WE THOUGHT WE WOULD GET DOWN THERE AND DO SOME "PEOPLE WATCHING" AND BOY DID WE GET AN EYE-FULL. I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW MANY PEOPLE WILL PAY $9.00 FOR 1 BEER AND GET SOOOOO DRUNK THAT THEY MISS THE CONCERT OR ARE THROWING UP BEFORE IT STARTS. WHAT A WASTE OF MONEY ON BEER AND THE TICKETS. BUT HEY, I GUESS IT'S THEIR MONEY HUH!?

SUGARLAND CANCELLED DUE TO THE LEAD SINGER LOST HER VOICE. BUT I AM NOT A BIG FAN OF THEM SO I REALLY DIDN'T CARE. I WAS THERE FOR KENNY!!! HE PUT ON AN AWESOME SHOW!!! I SANG MY HEART OUT , CHEERED , SCREAMED , AND SWEATED MY ASS OFF!!!I HAD SUCH AN AMAZING NIGHT ! WE HAD GREAT SEATS. 5 ROWS UP FROM THE FLOOR AND KIDDY-CORNER FROM STAGE. AND I CAN TELL YOU WHAT - NEXT YEAR I WILL HAVE ME A NEW CAMERA CAUSE THE ONE I HAVE TOTALLY STINKS. I SWEAR THE PICTURES I TAKE LOOK LIKE THEY ARE FARTHER AWAY THAN I REALLLY AM. AND THE ZOOM - YA WELL THAT DOESN'T ZOOM SO WELL EITHER.

AFTER KENNY GOT DONE SINGING , HE CAME BACK ON STAGE WITH A UTAH UNIVERSITY RED BALL CAP ON ( OMG! HE LOOKED SO YUMMY!) AND HE AND HIS BAND DID ANOTHER 30-45 MIN. JAM SESSION TO MAKE UP FOR SUGARLAND NOT PERFORMING. HE PLAYED ALOT OF OLDIES AND HAD THE CROWD GOING WILD!!!! THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT KENNYS MUSIC THAT I TOTALLY LOVE. HIS MUSIC IS SO CHILLED, LAID BACK , AND CAREFREE , AND DID I MENTION THAT THERE IS SOMETHING SEXY ABOUT HIM OTHER THAN HIS TRACTOR...LOL!

HAD A GREAT TIME SPENDING THE NIGHT WITH FRIENDS AND SINGING TO MY FAVORITE...KENNY CHESNEY...UNTIL NEXT YEAR!!!! P.S. SHOULD HAVE CAME ALAINA!!!

R AND R TIME !!

SUNDAY WE HEADED UP TO THE WILLARD BASIN IN THE RHINO WITH THE WHITNEYS AND THE STANFORDS (WHO JUST BOUGHT A RANGER ON SATURDAY). WE CALL THIS OUR R AND R RIDES (RHINO AND RANGER).... THE WEATHER WAS SO AWESOME UP THERE AND BEING UP IN THE MOUNTAINS WAS SO RELAXING.... WE MADE IT ALL THE WAY UP TO "INSPIRATION POINT" AND LOOKED OUT AT OUR BEAUTIFUL SCENERY. I HAD NO IDEA HOW BIG WILLARD BAY IS AND WE WERE ABLE TO SEE THE MOTORCROSS TRACK AND OUR SUBDIVISION FROM WE WERE AT. WE STOPPED AT A SPRING RUN-OFF AND HAD LUNCH UNDER SOME HUGE PINETREES. THE KIDS RAN AROUND AND HAD FUN!! WE ALL LOOKED LIKE A BUNCH OF HILL-BILLES. WE WERE COVERED WITH 10 POUNDS OF DUST FROM HEAD TO TOE! WE ALWAYS HAVE SO MUCH FUN ON OUR R AND R RIDES AND WE ARE SO HAPPY THAT THE STANFORDS CAN NOW SEE WHAT ME AND KYLEE ARE ALWAYS TALKING ABOUT. THANKS FOR THE FUN TIME GUYS AND HAPPY TRAILS TILL NEXT TIME.....

GIRLS NIGHT OUT !

A GROUP OF US GIRLS HAVE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS NIGHT FOR SOME TIME. WE ARRANGED A POLE DANCING CLASS WITH A GROUP OF FRIENDS. I MUST SAY I HAVE A NEW RESPECT FOR "POLE DANCERS". THIS IS NOT AS EASY AS IT LOOKS. OUR INSTRUCTOR WAS SO FUN! SHE HAD 0% BODY FAT ( HER BODY WAS JUST AMAZING) AND SHE WAS JUST INCREDIBLE ON THE POLE. SHE MADE IT LOOK SOOOO EASY. YA RIGHT!!! BEFORE THE CLASS STARTED WE HAD A COUPLE DRINKS AND I DONT THINK I WILL DO THAT AGAIN. ALL THE SPINNING AND UPSIDE DOWNS MOVES REALLY MESSED US UP! WE LEARNED SOME MOVES ON THE POLE, DANCING UP AGAINST THE WALL, MOVES ON THE FLOOR, AND WE LEARNED HOW TO GIVE A LAP DANCE. THAT WAS PRETTY FUN ! WE HAD TO PICK A FRIEND TO PRACTICE ON. WE REALLY DID A LOT OF GIGGLING AND LAUGHING!!!! AFTER OUR 2 HOUR CLASS OF BEING "SEXY" WE HEADED OVER TO AMBERS TO CHANGE FOR OUR NIGHT OUT ON THE TOWN. WE WENT TO OLIVE GARDEN FOR DINNER. SO YUMMY!!! BUT KYLEE STARTED FEELING SICK SO WE ALL DECIDED WE WILL TRY THE "GIRLS NIGHT" OUT ANOTHER TIME. LET ME TELL YOU HOW SORE WE ALL ARE! 2 DAYS LATER AND I CAN NOT MOVE MY ARMS OVER MY HEAD. AND KYLEE JUST SENT ME A TEXT TELLING ME HOW SORE SHE IS. I GUESS WE ARE A LITTLE OUT OF SHAPE. BUT IT WAS WORTH IT....WE HAD SO MUCH FUN TRYING SOMETHING NEW , I THINK WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO TRY IT AGAIN. THANKS GIRLS FOR ALL THE LAUGHS DURING THE CLASS AND I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO OUR "REDO" ON THE GIRLS NIGHT OUT!!!!

CONCERT AND BBQ

LAST WEEKEND WE SPENT OUR SUNDAY WITH SOME NEIGHBORS UP AT SNOWBASIN. THEY PUT ON A FREE CONCERT EVERY SUNDAY AFTERNOON. THE WEATHER WAS "HOT" AND THE BAND REALLY DIDN'T DO A WHOLE LOT OF PLAYING. BUT WE ENJOYED HANGING OUT WITH SOME GREAT NEIGHBORS AND JUST RELAXING FOR A BIT. LATER IN THE EVENING WE HEADED OVER TO MICHELLES DADS CABIN UP IN THE CANYON. WE HAD A GREAT BBQ. THE FOOD WAS SO YUMMY! WE GOT RAINED ON BUT IT KIND OF COOLED EVERYTHING OFF. IT WAS FUN JUST RELAXING AND HAVING GREAT TIMES WITH OUR NEIGHBORS!

NEW PURCHASE

THIS IS ZACHS NEW PURCHASE. A CR250!!! ZACH HAS BEEN LOOKING AT BIKES FOR A WHILE. HE SAVED HIS MONEY FROM THE SALE OF HIS LAST BIKE (KAWASAKI 85). IT WAS A TOSS UP BETWEEN A BIKE OR A BANCHEE. HE FELL IN LOVE WITH ALL THE BLACK. THIS BIKE IS QUICK AND LIGHT TO HANDLE. IT KIND OF FREAKS ME OUT.....ZACH IS ONLY 14 AND LOOKS SO LITTLE NEXT TO THE BIKE. ZACH IS A BEAUTIFUL RIDER TO WATCH AND HE IS A NATURAL WHEN IT COMES TO RIDING MOTOCYCLES. SO WHAT MY WORRY HUH!?? MUST JUST BE THE "MOM" IN ME... NOW THE NEXT STEP IS GETTING TO THE DUNES SO HE CAN RIDE IT!!!!
