Why yes my friends and I are ridicously good looking..

My friends and I have an impromptu photo session at the Gateway Saturday night for my birthday after we got glammed up at M.A.C. ...we took these devilishly good looking pictures at a furniture store and may I say my friends are HOTTIES!!! Thanks again for an amazing time...I'll will post more party photos soon.

Gorgeous Amber Jane

Hottie Dominique Snow

Partay tay tay

Tonight is my dress-up/girl's night birthday party. We are having a party and dressing up at Amber's house getting our make-up done at MAC then heading to the Sky Bar for eating, drinking(non-alcoholic of course) and dancing! I have 2 wonderful friends who set this up for me...Amber and Dominique ....thanks you guys are the best!!

Ick

I donated blood today at work and apparently when you donate a pint of blood it's like burning 3000 calories!!! No wonder I feel so crappy now.

Oh the places you'll go

We took a drive/hike up to Solitude today. It is much cooler up there so we took our time wandering around on a trail enjoying the place to ourselves. I believe it's over 100 degrees again today...My Canadian self is not made for this therefore I must do as my ancestors did and head for the hills :) Isaiah was very good except on the way down when he found out I didn't bring him any Cheerios! My mistake.

Isaiah was determined to climb all the way up by himself

What a handsome ground squirrel! He he

It was nice to take a break from the heat in the valley

My new favorite artistic things

My AMAZING cousin made me this as a birthday present and if you can believe it she made it in about 2 hours!!! She is incredible at doing crafty things(if you didn't already know she has a blog where she makes cards Baby Jane Cards and Crafts.) Need less to say I love the gift and I proudly have it on display now in our living room.

My budding artist

Isaiah took this self portrait tonight as you can see he is VERY artistic....it touches on so many levels. I believe I would have to call this groundbreaking.

The Hair Flower pins

My friend Dominique's mom makes these amazing flower clips and Dominique always comes in with new cute clips that her mom makes, they are selling like hotcakes at work and her mom keeps coming out with even better ones...if you think this one is cute you should see what she has now!

One 10k out of the way

So yesterday I did a 10k race in West Jordan for a family who has 3 kids with a rare brain cancer. One of those kids died from an infection so some of the runners had a picture of her pinned to their shirts. I'm not gonna lie it wa really depressing looking at it but I think it helped me finish faster. I think my time was 58:38 which I was really happy with because I wanted to finish in under an hour. Darrin did the 5K and almost won a medal for being in the top 3 ...I think he was 5th. i have no idea what place i came in but I really didn't care i wasn't intending on winning anything I just wanted to get through it without having my knee hurt which luckily it didn't. All in all good day.

Tired today

Worked at 6 got about 3 hours of sleep and Isaiah has a virus that thankfully isn't too serious. He had to get his throat swabbed for strep which wasn't fun because he threw up everywhere after. Darrin is taking a much needed nap and I'm about to see some friends sans children! Thank goodness for breaks. I can hear my swamp cooler going and I shudder to think what next month's energy bill will be.
