Viva La$ Vega$

So Rob and I went for a quick trip to Vegas... I mean who works for an Airline just for the money!!! Not me. I work for an Airline to Play! Well and I guess money:)

For my birthday Rob bought tickets to Blue Man Group in Vegas. Other than we when we sat down I was a little irritated because the seats were in the Pancho Section, and I didn't want to get anything on me. I got over it really fast because the seats were Excellent! You could see Everything. I did get banana in my hair, but thats Ok I got over it! Thanks Nate and Marci for the hook-up!

And for Lunch we went to a place from the Travel Chanel of Man vs Food to the Hash House a Go Go! Yummy!

We spent the night at Circus Circus bringing back lots of fun memories from when we were kids. Playing all the games on the top floor. We walked the strip and split dinner at a restaurant next to Treasure Island and we watched the Pirate show right out the window!

It was soooo much fun!
Thanks Rob, I Love You!




Rob had the Eggs Benedict with Chipolte sauce served over biscutts, and I had grilled mashed potatoes, meat loaf with mushroom gravy and onions!

Bringing in the New Year...

So we went to the Cabin to bring in the New Year and It was Lots of Fun with some experiences I hope to never relive! We got a later start to the Cabin than I had hoped for and by the time we had made numerous stops and got the snowmobiles running to get into the cabin it was dusk.... Well Paige, Zaylee and I got on a snowmobile and headed towards the cabin. Well Paige was facing back words so the wind didn't hit her face and as I turned from the road into the cabins side road she panicked grabbed the handle bars and into a rod iron gate we went. My face cut and many bruises, Paiges head has a big goose egg, and Zaylee cut her lip. Well I couldn't get the snowmobile unstuck so we waited for the next group to find us... not to mention it was 1 degree or colder by then outside. Finally came Roy and my Dad they took Zaylee and left Paige and I at the gate. Well thirty min had gone by and they had not returned so I thought we will just walk it might take 15 min from where we were, well the snow was sooo deep and we kept sinking so we turned around and went back to the snowmobile. Another 20+ min had gone by and Paige was shaking from the cold and panicking. The cabin where we were had their lights on so I decided we are either going to try and walk again or go knock on that cabins door. Well my dad had gotten stuck and finally Roy had returned to save us! When I walked into the cabin it was a sight... The kids were screaming from the cold, Zaylee was still bleeding and Ian and Seth were trying to be helpful and had made the best watered down hot coco I had ever tasted! Well in the meantime no one at the cabin had their phone, so the ones left at the car were in panic mode as well, they had now been waiting an hour and a half plus. Rob had started to walk in and some other people stopped him and said they would come back in to give him a ride to find out what had happened to us.

Roy went and got Rob and between the two of them they got my snowmobile unstuck and the one my dad was on. They got the rest of the people into the cabin with all of the stuff and in the meantime Max's fingers got frostbite.

Lesson learned that if you are not to the cabin before dark... Don't go! Plus there is soooo much snow this year. I have never seen that much snow at the cabin before, they should not complain there will not be enough water this year.

Jori ended up taking Max to the ER the next day and he is Good! The kids played in the snow and we played lots of games and had lots of Food to bring in the New Year!

I took some pictures of the Kids at Midnight (which was a fight for me to even stay awake) and then just deleted them after I thought I had uploaded them. Well they were not uploaded so no pictures of Midnight!!!!

We made it out safely with no events! Here are some pics of the Cabin Fun while we were there! I have to admit I think I am ready to go to work tonight! I know once I get there I won't have that same feeling but the Holidays for 2010 are over and I only have a few more boxes to put back in storage!!!!




This is the back of my leg from holding onto the snowmobile


And my shoulder from running into the gate :(

The Year is coming to an End...

Well the year is almost over and what a trying one it was. I have never paid more medical bills in my life. Had more car problems with Robs Truck (which is now gone due to so many problems). Who would have ever thought that I would be thinking about buying plots at the Murray Cemetery. Or just wishing that my bad choices in life can change for the Good! Well now that the bad is out of the way their is always more Good than Bad.
January.. We went to Denver because Robs Grandma Passed away.
February.. We spent my Birthday and Valentine's Day at the Cabin.
March.. Roger and Lori came here to visit!
April.. We went with Friends to the Cabin to celebrate Rob's Birthday
May... We were entertained by Paige's dance recital, I just dreamed we were in Hawaii :)
June.. Our annual Softball trip to Moab
July.. We spent many hours at a Baseball Field watching Ian play this year!
August.. We went to Denver and went to a Rockies game :)
September.. Zaylee turned Two! School started and I just keep wishing Paige was in Kindergarten(All Day) Next year just can't come soon enough for her!
October.. San Antonio.. Birthdays.. Ian was Baptised
November.. Rob lost a Dear Friend, which was the bringing for me to think about buying plots. We stayed in town for Thanksgiving then went to the cabin to rest for the weekend but Rob ended up putting the carpet in the basement! We are soooo excited that there will be more bedrooms up there!
December.. We went to Denver for Christmas (we haven't been in 9 years) I had the week off between Christmas and New Years which I have never been able to do before! So we took advantage and went out of town! Whoa.. It was difficult flying standby and packing all the gifts! Not to mention flying standby home and bringing home a whole lot more gifts! All I can think that Christmas is over and I don't have to think about it for one more year!!

The year is almost over and I am grateful for my Family! They do so much for us! Here is to 2011!!!! Hoping that everyone will be Healthy and Happy :)

Eventful Day!

Whoa what a day... It was an Eventful One. I went to a Baby Shower for a girl from work and the theme was Lady Bugs sooo very cute! She has tried for over ten years to have a baby then last year she got pregnant and at the 20 week ultrasound their was no heartbeat. How heartbreaking. She is so positive... and not very much longer she got pregnant again. She is having a little Girl Anna. How Fun...

Then we dropped Paige off at Dance and went over to the Murray Cemetery to Place an ornament on Pete's Christmas Tree! I am a big boob and cry all the time thinking about the Fondaco's. Of course tears came down. :)

We picked up Paige and headed to Delta's Skating with Santa! They rent out the Gallivan Center for only Delta Employees to skate! It was sooo much fun. Hot Chocolate and Donuts! And of Course Santa! Then at the end they do drawings and give out prizes and I won! There were all kinds of prizes.. Ski lift tickets, Lagoon Tickets for Delta Lagoon day, Movie Tickets and Money! Of course I get the Movies Tickets but hey its another Fun night out!

So we picked up Dinner on the way home and we round out the day with Zaylee going on the POTTY!!!! We had no accidents all day long! I am beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel Potty Training Zaylee! Oh and on another good note today I sold my Crib, Changing Table and Dresser on KSL the baby stuff is almost all Sold!!!!





On the Bottom of the ornament Rob wrote Boyz 4 Ever.... Coming from the Tattoo on his leg and Petes that reads Boyz 4 Life! Well since he didn't think Petes life would end so soon (none of us did) he thought he would change the saying...

Work

So work has been quite challenging with all of the weather issues on top of it is a busy time of year. So tonight as I was helping someone this other passenger came up and cut the first one off in mid sentence and asked if he had been upgraded. I told him that I was helping the gentlemen in front of me and it would be just a min. He rudely told me that I should be grateful that I woke up this morning and that I wasn't Dead. It really rubbed me the wrong way. That would have never been my first comment to anyone... His upgrade was going to go through and I wanted to delete him off of the list. But since I can't or wouldn't be so rude in return I gave him the upgrade and he left. The Comment stuck with me all night....

Since this is the last day of November I just want to say again I am Thankful for my Family... My family of Five.. and my Big Family....
