Lilly Lake

Last Saturday we headed up into the Unitah's to go fishing and have a BBQ. We started out trying to find a good lake to fish at. One of the lakes we passed was Lilly lake. So naturally Lilly had to get her picture taken by the sign. She was so funny just standing by the sign while we took fifty pictures of her. We found a nice little lake that was not as crowded as the rest called Butterfly Lake. Ian and Dust threw their poles in while I read a book. ( I don't fish, I think it is cruel) Dust caught two and Ian caught one. When Ian caught his I was holding it while he took the hook out so we could throw him back. Ian killed him trying to get the hook out and the little guy started bleeding all over me. So me being the way I am, started to cry my eyes out and wouldn't talk to Ian the rest of the day. And this is why I do not fish......it is an emotional battle for me and I always end up crying.

Ruth's Diner!!!

Last Friday I had a sudden urge to eat somewhere new and exciting. I also wanted to eat somewhere with a nice outdoor dining area. A few friends that I work with suggested we head up to Ruth's diner in the canyon. We decided to invite my parents as well. I was very impressed with the food and the atmosphere. My very favorite thing was their house salad dressing. I am very picky about my dressings and was blown away by theirs. Yummy! I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for good food and outdoor dining.

Journey and Heart

Friday night was the much anticipated Journey and Heart concert at Usana. My main attraction to the concert was Heart but I ended up enjoying Journey more. Don't get me wrong Heart was awesome I was just disappointed because they didn't play my two favorite songs. Journey's new lead singer was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He seriously was better than the original. He had so much energy and really put on an awesome show. All in all it was a lot of fun.
This is Dust and I sad after Heart didn't play our songs
Here we are happier with Journey's choice of songs

Ian's dreams have finally come true..............

We both love to travel but share the same concerns about traveling. When you plan a big vacation you spend months anticipating it and then in what seems like the blink of an eye it's over and done with and all we have left is pictures. Because of this fact we have decided to make our vacationing a little more sporadic so that we really enjoy the vacations we do get to take.
To give us the sensation of getting out and away from home we have been talking a lot about camping. We both love to camp and spend time outdoors so camping is a good fit for us. I don't mind spending a night or two roughing it, but anymore than that and I start to long for a toilet , shower and a bed out of the dirt. For about 3 years now my husband has been trying to talk me into buying a camp trailer. I have been very reluctant because contrary to popular belief, I hate spending large amounts of money. Even though I knew it would be a lot of fun and that it would get well used I have held strong. Until yesterday.......................................
We have been looking on KSL at some used trailers and have even gone to look at some in person. When I saw one listed on KSL yesterday for a killer price I knew that it was now or never. So at about 8 o'clock last night Ian and I with my parents behind us on the Harley, headed out to take a look. We were really impressed with what we saw and even more impressed with the honesty of the sellers. It is a used trailer so naturally it has a few minor problems and they made sure to disclose everything to us. After some thought and consideration we were on our way home, with the trailer in tow. We are really excited about our new purchase and can't wait to go camping........Now if we could just find a weekend to getaway!

Happy Birthday Kelsee

Well its that time of year again its Kelsee's Birthday She is a old twenty two years of age now and well she sure does love her birthday she thinks everyone is celebrating her birthday with her. For those of you who thought the fourth of July had something to do with our country gaining independence from England well your wrong! The fireworks are for Kelsee and she will even tell you that.

My wife is great and everyone knows that she is beautiful and obviously she has a lot of patience to be able to put up with me. She is very loving although most of her love does go towards Lilly. She is also very forgiving and she always takes good care of me. She is a great housewife and is even a good sport when I told her she needed to start cooking me meals that my mother makes at home. She didn't even get offended when I gave her the recipes. Kelsee is the greatest wife in the world and our little puppy will tell you she has the greatest mom also. So on this day just remember the firework stands are all for Kels. Happy Birthday Babe I love You
