Les Miserables

2 weeks ago Josh and I were able to enjoy night downtown.  We went and saw the play Les Miserables while it was in Denver.  We loved it.  It my first time seeing it and it was amazing.  Great singing. Josh had seen it 2 times before but he liked it as well.  It is his favorite, so we were excited to see it would be in Denver for a few days. Hopefully I can convince him now to let us go to Wicked which comes in April...

Bear Lake and Oregon

Here are some fun pictures I took while visiting some of my family in Bear Lake and Oregon this past month.  We had a lot of fun.

 This is after my uncle Grant repeatedly said that these tubes don't flip...

Riley Blake Designs

I'm sure it's not news to anyone, but I love finding cute fabric and fun quilts and things to sew.  Well, I found a great site, Riley Blake Designs and I love it! Really cute stuff. Anyways, Riley Blake Designs is having a quilting contest! And the prize is a beach cruiser! (my favorite kind of bike)

I have been wanting to do a nice quilt for awhile, I think this might finally get me to do it. Check it out HERE.

PS- I love the dolled up quilt! so cute!

Las Vegas!!!

We just got back from a week long vacation in VEGAS! It was a blast.  It was really hot, but we had lots of fun hanging out in the pool, lazy river and walking up and down the strip.  We did a ton of walking, and therefore we also drank a ton of water! And now here's lots of pictures.  Not all are great because I tried to keep my camera on manual the entire time, so I was able to learn a lot, but it also means not every picture turned out great....

 

Temple art

It has a been a great summer.  I love not having to go to work each day, but I do miss having something to do each day.  So lately I have been playing around on photoshop.  Here's what I came up with today.  I rather like them...

Denver

Breckenridge, CO

This past weekend we had the opportunity to go to Breckenridge, CO with some of our best Denver friends. We stayed in a great house/ mansion and enjoyed visiting the cute town, seeing some horses, enjoying the hot tub and theater room, playing pool, seeing a fox and of course lots of eating.

the entire group- I set the camera on the timer and made Josh run as fast as he could up lots of stairs and he made it! It was great. 

All over main street they had bronze statues.  So of course I had to get a picture.

I also had to document everyone that came with us...
