The entire family drove down to Las Vegas to pick me up from the airport and we stayed over for the night. This is the girls in front of the coolest attraction in Vegas ,Chief Eagle Feather. the only kid appropriate thing to do in Vegas. They are all very pleased with them selves as they were just about to be turned loose in a gift shop with a entire dollar to spend. Wow we are so stinking cheap. Do you ever wonder what horror story your children are going to come back to tell about you. Ours is going to be Mom and Dad sent us in to a store with so little money we couldn't actually buy any thing in the store except for the shot glasses and ashtrays that said LAS VEGAS WHERE EVERY THING IS SEXY written all over them from the clearance section.
Good thing Grandma Jumped in and saved the day with .75 more per child to boost the prize to a sparkle pencil that just said Las Vegas which they promptly lost and cried for the next 2 hours about.
No really we had a great time with G-ma and G-pa and the kids had a great time. It is good to be back in Good old St. George though.
This is a picture of Dan and I running through our Cooking show before the camera crew starts filming.It's all smiles and giggles ,until they haul in the big filming lights and then the nausea sets in. No, my nerves are getting much better and it is not as intimidating as it use to feel. But I have gained a new appreciation for having to smile on cue, and being happy and perky all the time , because true fully some days just aren't thous days.
Talking about things I've learned or relearned , I had a funny experience at a family get together, where the subject came up whether or not I should laugh on camera or not. I should note I was not in the room when this came up, but walk in a while into the conversation, and could not figure out for the world why my personality and laugh became a discussion firstly, and secondly why they would rip it apart in front of me. It was a very funny moment . So I tell you all this experience for the simple reason if I laugh on camera and any of you happen to see it, and you are all terribly embarrassed to be my friends or family. I'm so sorry! And I don't want to hear about it! But I'll keep laughing anyways , I wouldn't be me with out it.
Sorry it's been so long since I last wrote I'll try to do better .

Might I add all the incredible parties and Activity Day events that have kept you slightly busy? You are awesome! Now, when I can't get a hold of you, I can just go to your blog and remind myself why you aren't calling me back!
So what cooking show is this? You are so dang cute! And I miss you laugh like crazy! I'm so glad you have a blog!

I'm so glad you did a post so I could catch up. You are right...your laugh is just a part of you, and I love it! Is the cooking show up on the internet yet? Give the girls a big hug! Love you.
P.S. I'm on Briana's computer, so this is going to look like she posted it, but it's really Susan.
What's this cooking show I'm missing out on? I MISS YOU {and your laugh}!!! It's just not the same now that we're in diff wards even though neither of us moved. :( Thanks for the catch up busy woman!
ok what? TV show? you are amazing. what can't you do? i sure miss that laugh & smile of yours. hope one of these days i can see you again. by the way its Shannon.
I am just going to state for the record I love your laugh. It is contagious. Whenever we all get together that is just what we do and I think it is fair to say that you start it all. That is why we all enjoy getting together so much. It is always a good time. I love you sis. Thanks for coming out. I miss you tons! Wanna move out to the East coast. I mean why wouldn't you....it is not like in St. Goerge you get the opportunity to scrape an inch of ice off your car just to go shopping ;) I can only image the words that would be coming out of Dave's mouth if he would have been here. I've already seen his dislike for snow and ice is even funner. Good times! Love ya!
I love your laugh! I watched an episode of your show and I laughed every time you laughed. DON'T stop just because someone else says you should.
