Fed up with Gas Prices!

I hate gas prices these days they are driving me crazy. I have thought long and hard about how to make life better with the economy the way it is today. A couple months ago I was looking into buy a scooter, the thought left my head and just recently has come back. Yesterday I went and test drove one and it was easier than I thought. I really want to get a scooter now, but I don't know if it's going to be worth it. Here are the pro and con's:
Pros: Cons:
* cheaper gas * I might die
* fun to drive * longer to get to work
* I would look cute * have to take back roads to work

Those are the Major ones I have thought of. I thought since most of you like to give me advice on everything else I do I was wondering what your input would be on me buying a scooter. Also if I do get a scooter should I spend the 3,000 to get the "Honda" brand or should I spend around 1,500 for a "Kia" brand (that's how my Dad explained it to me). I would like to get feed back from everyone about this topic so it can help me make up my mind. Thank you so much! Have a wonderful day.

STADIUM OF FIRE - A.K.A MILEY CYRUS!!

Stadium of Fire!!

Happy 4th of July everyone! This was the best 4th of July I have every had. I'll tell you all about my great weekend.
We went on the 3rd before to Granite High with Jer's family and that was a lot of fun, they had some good fireworks. Then we had to get up early the on the 4th to go to the Centerville parade with my family. It was crazy we got to ride on some cool bikes and got lots of candy for all the little kids. Later in the afternoon we went on a bike ride and Jer did so good on his new bike the "Assaw"
This was a picture of us a Granite High School. Ryken is so cute he kept wrestling Jeremy and I all night and we couldn't stop laughing.
Hi, and welcome to the best night ever! Staudium of fire!!! The whole concert was just outragously amazing. It started with 1300 dancers that acted out all of the summer olympics in 7 min. It was so organized and together, I was impressed.
Then we were all entertained by the blue man group. These men are so interesting to watch, it's amazing the sounds they could make with these big pipes. The concert was being broadcast overseas for the soliders. Some husbands and wives got to talk eachother and it was really sweet. The last husband that talked was a Ute fan and we all know that this was event was sadly held at Brigham Young University so the solider, after he talked to his wife, said I know that this is at BYU, but I just have to do this... and he help up a Utah football jersey for everyone to see. I thought it was pretty cool that he did that. I think that this was the loudest part of the the night were everyone was "cheering" or "booing", the cheering side was of course louder! GO UTES!
Then this was the best part of the night music started, girls started screaming, and I felt like I was going to throw up if she just didn't get out on stage. Right when I thought I was going to die, I looked up and there she was I jumped up right out of my chair with 2000 12 year old girls and we rocked all night!!! Go MILEY! All these pictures were taken from my seat, my husband got some good seats that's for sure! Thanks so much babe for making the 12 year old girl inside of me the happiest girl ever! Sorry to the Longman and Marshall girls for not putting the video on like I had promised them it wouldn't ever load, but I'll show you girls another time.
Miley was such a little rocker girl she was running around the stage singing her little heart out. She was a headbanging, foot stomping, jumpin crazy 15 year old girl. I was really impressed with her live show she sang her popular songs and then let us hear some of here new songs off of her new album. I'm so happy I was able to finally see Miley in concert we are like BFF's now!
Thanks babe for being okay that I like to be a 12 year old girl sometimes. It make me happy to know that you love me no matter what! I know a lot of guy's who wouldn't be caught dead at a Miley concert and pretty much everyone who is older then 16 reading this blog thinks I'm lame for adoring her. But thanks for being there with me and showing your support! I love you babe you are so good to me I couldn't dream of anyone who is better for me. I LOVE JEREMY!!

Mrs. Amazing!!

Here are the pictures..... Story will follow. I hate that you can't cut and paste on blogs. Anybody know how to? please let me know.
Here is the Story!

I like to call her Mrs. Amazing, but her real name is Annalisa Spencer. Annalisa has mastered something that most people would love to learn how to do. She is this incredible person that loves to find great deals, get free stuff, and to have a little extra money in her pocket. Annalisa has worked hard to find a good system that works and a fun way to do it.

Last night I witnessed this system first hand. I went to Target with Annalisa to do some coupon shopping. I meet her and she was so cute she made me an envelope with a TON of coupons in it and wrote me up a shopping list. We walked around the store and she was showing me all the good deals and showing me how to combine coupons to get free products and even better get products that earn me money. The best part was the check out we just had a pile of coupons and with every scan the price kept going down. I kinda felt bad because we had so many that 2 people moved lines because they were tired of waiting. My total before the coupons was like $54 then with each scan of my coupons my smile just got bigger when I saw my total as........ $17.99!! However, I also got 2 $5 gift cards to target so basically I spent $7.99 to get all these good groceries. Her deal was even better! Her bill was $109 and got it all the way down to $30 and then she got like 4 $5 Gift cards! Wow! This made me so excited I got endorphins and was not longer tired after working four 12 hour shifts so far this week.

I had such a fun time at Target and will for sure be back there every week to find new and excellent deals. If any of you come over coupons that you are not using send them my way.

If any of you would like to learn of this greatness please go to her website at http://slavetosave.synthasite.com/

Enjoy her website and take her advice I took all of her advice and I hope one day I can become as good as she is at this task. Thanks again Annalisa for teaching me all your secrets and I hope I'm not too annoying as I keep asking you questions. I appreciate you!

Fun Weekend!

This weekend was totally fun! My family and cousins are so awesome. It all started with my cousin Todd and My Aunt coming back here for fathers day. On Friday Adam, Jessica, myself and my mom took the day off work to go play with Todd. While Robert, Tyler, Adam, and Todd went golfing my mom, Jessica, and I watched charlie so Angel could go to lunch with her sisters. It was fun to sit and talk to Charlie and play with him I was even able to dance with him (Angel said it was okay). Then we played some Guitar Hero and as always Jessica kick my butt. We then went to the Luau for my Cousin Tricia, who was also in town, to celebrate her engagement to John. (Congrats, you two are super cute together). This party was awesome because it come a long with David's awesome drinks. However, I'm pretty sure at this party I ruined a surprise party for Uncle Don that was for the next day. Thanks to Suz for providing her beautiful house and to the rest of the Christensen's for supplying the great food. Saturday was even more eventful we had a party for my Aunt and the whole family came to visit and to eat great food. Then after that party we moved some of the party to Cherry Hills. I felt like I was 10 again with my BIG cousins (Rob, Tyler, Todd) and Adam all jumping on my head with big yellow tube's. The best part was going down the blue sides we all doubled up and went down the slides so fast. The best combo was Tyler and Rob who together weighed in at a quarter ton! I'm sure that slide almost broke. After an all day of sun and fun we moved this some of this party to Chad's house where we played Human Rubberband. This is the greatest game ever invented! The were a lot of injuries, and even a broken toe (sorry Jessica). I think everyone needs to play this game because you will not be able to stop laughing my dad now has this game per a fathers day gift. Then Sunday came and we finished off the week by have a good bye brunch for Todd. During this brunch we watched the entire Nascar race and I actually liked it all. Thanks to Rob for teaching me all about that sport and introducing it to me. It was nice to hang out with Todd again and to catch up with my Aunt. Here are some pictures of the fun weekend.

This is how MyKelle and Keith felt about the party on Saturday

Happy Birthday to Me!!

June 7th was my birthday and I had a great day! Jeremy gave me season tickets to Broadway across America which includes WICKED! I'm so stoked to see that again. I love it so much! My mom gave me the cruise we took back in Jan. Ann gave me Dance Dance Revolution on the Wii. In the morning Jer took me up the canyon to Ruth's diner and it was so yummy. We went up to Park City and rode the Alpine slide and the Roller Coaster it was so much fun. we also went up to Kamas because my Dad wanted to see Gines Lane and our property he promised us ice cream in kamas so there was no complaining.

My mom got me this awesome cake that was shaped like a purse! Best birthday cake ever! It was really good. At night We went up millcreek canyon to roast marshmallow's and eat Tin foil Dinners.
This is Jessica Hill and Jeremy enjoying smores.
Chris and Annalisa getting cuddly by the fire.
My Best friends from high school came and played with me. I miss these girls and I'm grateful that we were able to rekindle our flame. (get it because there was a fire, ha ha. I know I'm lame)

This is Jer and I about ready to get all messy with that smore Jer is holding. Unfortunately the fire was not big or wide enough to fire up our tin foil dinners so we took them back to Chirs and Annalisa's house and cooked them in the oven. We played Mario Kart and Annalisa gave me good tips on saving money. She is seriously so great at saving and earning extra money if anyone wants advice let me know and I'll give you her website. Thanks Jer for giving me a great day I love you babe your the greatest.

Addison's Blessing Day

This was on Addison's blessing day. It was a great day and Nat provided was with some great treats afterwards. Notice I said Nat because we all know Travis couldn't arrange something like that.

I know this may look like Addison is our child and as much as I would like to clam her I have to say Addy is not ours.


This is MyKelle..... Need I say more?

Here is Jeremy getting his first lesson from Professor Keith and Professor Adam. You look good on the bike babe now just get your license and you will be saving a lot of money on gas!
We went down to see sweet Charlie Cooper. I had the pleasure of holding this awesome child, I love Charlie. I was scared to hold him because of how precious he really is and I didn't want to break him.

Bee's game

Todd and Ann invited us all to go to the bee's game on May 23. 2 of Todd's kids came and all of Ann's kids came except Nicole! (We missed you) It was my first really baseball game I've seen in person. It was a lot of fun and we eat some really yummy soft pretzel's and good hotdog's.


This is Ann and Todd With Ann's grandkids. Jordan is just a silly little boy and Bros was too busy laughing and throwing popcorn at me to pose for this picture. I think Ryken was not having it this night.
After they put on a great fire work show. They had music playing in the back ground and it was a really fun time. Thanks to Ann and Todd for the invite.
