My Life in Music!!

So I was downloading music to my phone. I had no clue what I was doing and I went into my husbands Ipod and just pushed sync and it started with a reggae cd my brother downloaded for us. My brother has really good taste in music because of him we have everything from Alabama and Credence Clearwater to Beethoven. Well this song came on my phone and I had to share it. I love this song when I hear it I just get "happy"!!!                                       ENJOY!!!

It's what fun is!! Boy is that true! As a kid I grew up in Bountiful, we had season passes a lot. Now that I have my own family I want my kids to experience the same things. It was definitely a lot easier when we were purchasing 3 passes for Chris, Damien and I. It's been about 6 years since we bought passes. We knew that we couldn't afford them this year so the kids saved for about 6 months. The 3 older ones had enough saved by April. When they had all their money a lot of it in change we took it in. Gage had the hardest time understanding that he had to give all his money up for a "stupid card". He kept saying "mom you stole my money"!!! Well I'm so glad we did this, with Chris's new work schedule we weren't able to really do much traveling this summer! So these passes worked out great on days we were getting a little stir crazy, we hopped in the car and off we went! I love passes because you don't feel like you have to stay all day to get your moneys worth. While I don't feel like we have been able to get up there as much as I wanted we've been about 11 times, I still feel like we've gotten good use out of them.

Ang happy as can be on the carousel.




This is why we love Passes, on Sundays the rides have little to no wait!!

 



I stayed off the ride to take pic. that's my story and I'm stickin' to it!!

Were we really THAT young?

October 5 has always been a great day. Well at least the last 15 years it has! On Dec. 12, 1994 I got a phone call and the person on the other line said "Did somebody page me?"  I answered "maybe, how old are you?" I figured it was one of the many guy's I had met at the mall, and I continued a conversation with him.Well what teenage girl doesn't like to talk on the phone? Eventually we met and started dating, yep he was 14 and I was 13. We dated on and off until October 5, 1995, that's when we officially became a "couple". He lived in West Valley, UT and I lived in Bountiful, UT. We would see each other every chance we could. On Saturdays I used to ride the bus for 2 1/2 hrs. to be at his basketball or soccer games, leaving my house at 5am sometimes. Then he turned 16 and he got a car, that meant more time together! When I turned 16 he bought me my first car a 1984 ford tempo!  We did all the typical teenage things dances, double dates, movies, dragging state. We even traveled together a lot. Our first trip was to the KOA in Willard, I clearly remember a weekend of eating bugles chips and raspberry filled doughnuts and him not being able to start a fire LOL!

I feel so blessed to be his wife, he is everything(+more) that I could ever ask for in a husband, and our kids have thee most amazing father!

To celebrate today we had spumoni ice cream for dessert. One of our favorite old school date places is The Old Spaghetti Factory. This is the ice cream we would get, but we had a different name for it we called it "spa moon me"!

Chris came home with my favorite candy bar, which I ate while doing recess duty at the school today. It was a nice little piece of heaven!






                   I sure am one lucky lady!!!
