CORPORATE OFFICE HALLOWEEN 2009

Every year at the corporate office, we have a costume party/lunch/contest etc. this year's theme was "DISNEY".

My day started off by being poked by Ursula.... awkward...

Mindy was my boss when i was working front desk at the gyms... i love her...

She made her entire ursula costume.. i bought mine..lol

Our corporate office manager terri, wouldn't tell many people what her costume was beforehand. She told me she was going to be the mad hatter so i pictured the cartoon version.. i was very surprised to see the johnny depp version (she won the BEST costume contest)Alice and Cruella
Alice and the mad hatter
Her tenticles looked so tempting to sleep on....
Ursula, Cruelle, Alice and Belle
Oh and in case you didn't notice, i wasn't the typical alice in wonderland... i was the HOT TOPIC version... :)

Fishing!!

The saturday before labor day, my dad, jake and i all went up to payson lake to go fishing. it was FREEZING cold and rainy, but we had a lot of fun and it was nice to spend some alone time with them.

Jake suiting up so he could go floating in the tube!

Good 'ol payson lake.... so pretty

Stella had a lot of fun hanging out.. but FREAKED out when we caught the fish! she had no idea what was going on...
caught me a sweet fish!

it was definitely nice to get away for awhile.... need to do it more often!

The Ranch

Growing up i thought this was the coolest thing ever. I always wanted to show my friends at school... we called it "Grandpa Fred's Zebra Truck :)"

The ranch has been our family (my dad's dad's side...) since my dad was young. When my great grandma lyman died a few years back, the consensus was to sell it. My grandpa has been staying there until everything is finalized and he is getting ready to move everything to New Mexico. I have always loved spending time up there, being around all of the horses, and the memories that i have at the ranch are uncountable and priceless. I am very lucky to have had this experience in my life. Breaks my heart to know that it won't be around for my kids some day, and that all the family gatherings have stopped, but it will be fun to be able to visit my grandpa in new mexico!

Our horses are the best! They all have their own personalities but are incredibly loveable.


I wonder how long this barn has been around :)

Love my dad

a fun night full of mexican food and SPOON ME!!!

Cyd and her family came in to town for Labor Day, as usual. Jake was playing in his usual show at SPOON ME so we all went out for dinner at Lone Star Taqueria, and then headed off for some yogurt and some music.

I cannot believe how big the kids are getting... especially Ava

two of my best friends Bonnie and her husband Cory came with us

My favorite!!!

My brother doing what he does best!!

Every few months we have a KICKOFF party for the PT department (i get to plan it lol). In august we went to raging waters and had a big BBQ and ran free around the park. It was a lot of fun!!

Jaron!!

Zack and me
And the man who runs the show... so lucky to have him!
