Jamie's 30th Birthday in Utah

We went to Utah for my ten year highschool reunion. Since we'd only be there a few days and would be busy with reunion stuff we decided to save ourselves about $300 by leaving Zac at home with Grandpa Jim and Grandma Debbie. (Landon came cuz he flies for free and Aunt Mel had offered to babysit him)

We had so much fun hanging out at Jeff and Kristen's to celebrate Jamie's 30th Birthday! Even though he had his B-day present from me in New York, his real birthday fell when we were in Utah. Mel got him a cherry cheesecake but Jeff couldn't find a 3 to make a 30, so 2+1 = 3 get it?

Nice Ella, did your dad teach you that?

Landon was ready to play croquet!


Look at those beautiful blondes!

Jamie thought the waterfall would make a sexy pose


Landon enjoyed playing on Ella's new playhouse!

chillin' at the airport ready to go home!

ARE WE EVER GOING TO MAKE IT BACK?

Coming home from New York we encountered bad weather in Dallas. Right before our decent the pilot was told to go back to Memphis (where we had our layover) cuz they wouldn't let us land in Dallas and we couldn't cirlce around forever. So we went back to Memphis and sat on the plane for over an hour waiting for another crew to come and fly us, yet again, back to Dallas. Well, they couldn't get another crew so our flight was canceled and we got to hang out in the NOT SO COMFORTABLE airport overnight (no free hotels when the cancelation is weather related!) YEAH IT SUCKED!

Oh, they did give us each $10 in Arby's vouchers- cuz that makes it all better

NEW YORK!!!

We went to New York for our birthday's this year (June 23-me and 30-Jamie) I hadn't been since I was 8 (20 years ago!)and Jamie went once for business (with Y2 marketing) like 6 years ago. So it was so fun to go and do some fun stuff there. Too bad we only had 3 days, but it's hard to be gone long when you leave your kids home-plus New York is expensive!

Love this show!!!

Got to see the new season's cast in person!

awesome!

One of my favorite things was central park! soooo pretty and surreal to see the big buildings through the trees!

David Letterman had Will Smith on that day, if I had known that, I would have waited in line to be in the audience for sure!!!

Time Square. A lot like Vegas :)

Happy EARLY B-day Jamie

THIS is the real reason we went to New York!!!! PEARL JAM!

I told Jamie since he was turning 30 I wanted to do something big for his birthday.... so I said pick any band that you want to see this summer in any city and we'll go! So he chose Pearl Jam in New York, and I have to say, IT WAS SOOOOOO AWESOME! Good choice Jamie :)

Wasn't that in the trash Landon???

Landon has figured out how to lift the lid on our kitchen trash can, so if the trash is pretty full, he'll pull things off the top and try to eat whatever's left in the container.... well just see for yourself...

I guess Jamie wanted a new look too...

When I left for work yesterday Jamie looked like this... (well this picture is like 2 weeks old, but he still looked about like this in the morning)...

But when I came home from work... HE LOOKED LIKE THIS!!!!

Supposedly he was "growing it out for 2 years" whatever... he does this almost every summer. I don't know why I was so suprised this time. I REALLY SHOULD HIDE MY CLIPPERS! You'd think I'd learn by now.

I don't know if he was getting too hot with the long hair, if he had too much time on his hands (I don't see how he was "watching" the kids), or if he wanted to look like his man crush David Beckham, but it is what it is.

I still think your sexy! And you always put up with me changing my hair, so rock the buzz cut! Whatever...

The New Me

I got bangs (or fringe as we hairstylists call it) about a week ago. I haven't had straight bangs since I was in Jr. High, but I was getting bored, so there it is.
