Allee's Competition

I went to watch Allee compete again this past Saturday. I could not be more proud of her. She improves every time I see her. I love watching her dance. She has a HUGE grin on her face the entire time. She points her toes and hits all of her moves hard. She is one cute little dancer.

April Birthdays

Apparently I struggle with remembering birthdays - So I am going to do all April Birthdays together! I hope I am not forgetting anyone :(

Happy Birthday Austin!
Austin is my nephew who lives in sunny St. George. He is a wild man. He has so much energy. He is always good for a laugh and also sometimes he gets really snuggly and I love those moments. He is kind of the class clown, you could say. I admire his thrill for life.

Happy Birthday Claudio!
Claudio is one amazing man. He has been in Brian's life for many many years now. He is very smart and always has a smile on his face. We are proud to have him as part of the family.

Happy Birthday Camilla!
Camilla is my sweet cousin. I have gotten to know her better in the past few years. She is so talented. She is very athletic. And she is an amazing artist. She's so fun to laugh with and play games with.

I hope all of you have or had a wonderful birthday. Brian and I love you all very much!

Absolutely Amazing April

It's only April 10th and it has been such a great month so far. I am just excited about life again and cannot wait to make the best of everyday.

The picture below is of Brian and I the day we found out that Brian got accepted into pharmacy school. We were so relieved and excited. I was bursting with pride and joy. We went to Red Lobster for dinner with two of our closest friends. They were so awesome to celebrate with us.

Then on Tuesday we went to dinner with another awesome couple - Brady and Brittney. Again we were celebrating Brian's acceptance. All of us are so excited for him. We went out to Moreila's for some Mexican food - Yum! We are so happy that Brady and Britt and back in Utah! Yeah!

This is the night that the Dana girls went to see WICKED! All I can say is: awesome! It was so good. The singing, the acting, the costumes.... Loved it! Thanks for the tickets mom! And thanks for making them accessible Lorna!
And this is our Remax Easter luncheon. We tried a baked potato bar this time and it was a hit. It's so much fun to hang out with these guys. We laugh and chat and joke for about an hour - a little break from reality. Love you Love you Love you!
