Bocce Fun

Sunday we celebrated Mother's day because my parents were out of town. We also did a mini birthday celebration for Dustin's birthday. We gave him Bocce for his birthday, so of course we had to go try it out!! It was so much fun! Dad was amazing - he beat us all - we couldn't believe some his shots. Where did he come from?JJ was digging Bocce too!

Frisbee Golf Fun

Last Saturday Matthew and I went frisbee golfing with his family - Rick, Daniel, Jonathan, Brittany, Alexander and Lincoln. We went to a cool course in American Fork that none of us had been to. Rick bought 30 discs for $20 off Ebay, so we had a wide variety of discs. It was awesome to have a driver, mid-range, all-purpose and a putter. I felt like a pro! We had a great time! And of course, I was the big winner!We did see some crazy stuff in the woods - like a couch, an old refrigerater, and this - whatever this is or is all about. pretty random!Alexander in action!

Alexander Quote of the Day #1

Alexander is my nephew, his mom, Brittany, does these quotes of the day. He stayed at our place last night and we had breakfast together. He is 4.

"Dada, I need a napkin. Oh, I don't need one any more, I made it disappear.
When you rub your hands together like this, then it disappears and you don't need a napkin."

Matthew is # 1!!!!!!!

Matthew and Danny have been working so hard for months on their web design and internet marketing business, Superior Design. Now their hard work is paying off!!! They are ranked number 1 on Google!!!!! It says they are number 2, but the number 1 spot is actually just a directory, so technically, they are #1.

This is an enormous feat because they are competing against people who know what they are doing when it comes to web design and SEO stuff. The competition is VERY high. But they are succeeding!!! They are #1!! While I was doing dishes Matthew called to me to come here and excitedly told me they were number 1. He then did his #1 victory dance and song - it was great! Congratulations you guys!!!

Pizza Delight!

My mom and I went to a pizza class together this last week. On Sunday we decided to try the pizza's out. It's amazing what some little tools we were lacking can help so much, but we made do with what we did have. It was a lot of fun to do it together. We had Matthew and my dad top the pizzas while my mom and I did everything else. The funniest thing was when my mom was making the dough in her mixer, she forgot to put the lid on so flour, water, and partially mixed dough was going everywhere!!! It was one of those funny slow-motion moments where you can't think. She couldn't think of how to turn the machine off, she was screaming, I was laughing and she then pulled the plug. The remains were all over the kitchen. It was so funny!!!! She didn't think it was so funny, but we did get a good laugh out of it. I wished I could have gotten a video of it - or at least a picture. We made 5 pizzas and still had dough leftover!!! We made a chicken and broccoli alfredo, pepporoni and sausage, canadian bacon and pineapple, cheese sticks and a dessert one with cherry pie filling and cream cheese frosting. They were all so yummy! We loved them! It was great! Here are some pics of our yummy delicacies

The Perfect Day

"The perfect day is being with those you love and knowing they love you"

Wedding Season!!!

Matthew and I went to one of his companion's (Brian and Sheyda) wedding on Saturday. This makes 3 sealings we have gone to in the last month. We love sealings!!! They are my favorite! The spirit is always so strong. Their wedding was really neat. Part of her family are not members of the church. They did a ring ceremony before the reception. After the ring ceremony Sheyda got up and explained why Brian and she decided to get married in the temple. She said it was something that was important to them and a choice they had made. They wanted to married for not only time, but for all eternity. She got to share her testimony with her family. There was a very sweet spirit there for that. I really admire both of them. It was so exciting they got married in the temple, but was also probably kind of hard to not have all their family there to be with them. It was fun to be a part of their special day. Here are some pictures from it

In between the sealing and the ring ceremony, we had some time to kill, so Matthew and I went Bountiful city park and had a little picnic, took a nap, watched some slack lining and hung out. It was such a beatiful day!!!
