Maine! What a wicked vacation (as they like to say)!

Our friend Nate goes up to his cabin in Maine every year, so when we were invited we just couldn't say no! I think the pictures will speak for themselves but we did everything from waterskiing, miniature golfing, candlestick bowling, more waterskiing, eating lobster, fishing, eating blueberry icecream, and more waterskiing! It was amazing!

So it is official! Russ and I are getting ready to head up to live in Flaming Gorge for the Summer! We figured it was good timing to get away and have a relaxing summer together. Hey, you only live once! We are so excited and we want everyone and anyone to feel free to come and visit. I am going to attach some of my favorite pictures so you all are aware of the beauty and what you will be missing if you don't come. It is truly heaven on earth!

HOLY MOLY!

Hey everyone! I don't know why this is taking me forever to figure out but slowly i am getting there. It has been so much fun reading everyone else's bloggs to hear what everyone is up to! I still can't believe how many of my friends have kids! Are you sure we are all old enough yet?! I guess I will feel 16 forever... or so I hope. HeHe.

So for those of you who don't Morgana got her mission call to Baltimore, Maryland ( I still constantly sing the "Good Morning Balitmore" song from Hairspray in my head everytime i talk about it). She leaves in June. Also, Bryce has officially graduated from school (the school which which shall not be named...GO UTES). No, actually I am really proud of him and it was a really fun day with the Fam!

One last thing, I just want to thank all of you who came to the Sojourn Concert! It was a success and it meant alot to have so many of my family and friends there. We worked so hard to make it professional and enjoyable for you! I am grateful that I can still do what I love to do and with some of my best girlfriends! We will see what will happen next year...

I have a feeling I will enjoy this blog thing. I will keep you posted...

RUSS & KODA BLACK...

I have finally joined the 20th Century!

So after handfuls of people telling me about this blog thing, I have finally decided to give it a try. In a way, it's like documenting your life online for all to see.

So far life has been really good to Russ and I. We still love our little house in Taylorsville (representing the west side!) and we love our first child... a white german shepard named Koda. And yes, we pretty much spoil her like a child. Life is crazy busy as usual with Russ finishing up school for Construction Managment, and I am still pluggin away with real estate. It has been a roller coaster year for me trying to manage a 50+ hours a week job and teaching Dance but I am lucky to love what I do!

I am still dancing with my adult dance team Sojourn! This year we have decided to put together our own show (thanks to the alimghty and motivated Julie) because we realize that time is now working against us as our bodies age and life gets more complicated with jobs and kids. We have had a blast performing all over the place this year including the Dew Tour, Lippi at the National Outdoor Show, and of course for Alex Boye and Jessie Clark Funk, our FAVORITE LDS singers!

So for those who are interested, our concert is APRIL 26th @ 7PM OLYMPUS HIGH SCHOOL !! I promise it will be an amazing and entertaining show!
