I went hiking last Saturday...it was a beautiful day and I took lots of pictures. We went up by little Cottonwood canyon. I don't remember the name of the trail, it was kinda steep but there were lots of great things to take pictures of...I love the greenery that remind me that spring is here...and the water...I love the water!!! The creek and the reservoir at the end of our hike. We didn't have time to go to the waterfall at the top but we hope to try that another Saturday before the season is over!!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggU2Ju_OY4WdK7AqYvexNS-G-Fjx3vFCvS0pI6Z9644SouVtAVxPqnpqWI-jZXQhUJrUWzoeQv5_u61oiYnn1CcJ19nBFLTpDsCzLOzpY1CHvSihxX2SgikS-FVw9wW77c4_PXUqGue6g/s1600/20130501+Hiking+M+003.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEggU2Ju_OY4WdK7AqYvexNS-G-Fjx3vFCvS0pI6Z9644SouVtAVxPqnpqWI-jZXQhUJrUWzoeQv5_u61oiYnn1CcJ19nBFLTpDsCzLOzpY1CHvSihxX2SgikS-FVw9wW77c4_PXUqGue6g/s320/20130501+Hiking+M+003.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>

I don't know if I should do a quick overview of all that we did in this first post and then in coming posts I can add pictures to show what we did or if I should just go ahead and do each day as it comes along...hmmm...what to do...I guess I will do an overview...</div><div>So Wednesday January 4th 2012 we woke up very early and Tom was nice enough to take me and Alaina to to the airport. Our flight was at 8:30 so like the crazy fliers we are...we were at the airport around 6. I am not a morning person...so do not like airports...and when you have to hurry up and wait I go a little bit crazy!! We flew to Atlanta and then on to Rome, Italy. It was so weird to be in all of these different countries with so much history...our little old Utah that I love is only 164 years old...some of the buildings we saw are hundreds of years old...and some of the ruins we saw were from the time of Christ...so unreal to think of!! When we got to Rome we were taken to our hotel that we would be staying at for 2 nights and told that we had the rest of the day until we had a dinner at 6. Alaina needed a nap...I didn't want to waste the whole day, so after I let Alaina take a little nap we went down to the Vatican. We got lost going and coming, the lady at the hotel said that it was easy to get to, it may have been if you got on the right bus in the first place...and I am directionally challenged unless I have my mountains...we were only 2 hours late to dinner but it sounds like the 6 dinner didn't even really start til 7 so we were only about an hour late. The next day we had a tour of Rome. Saturday morning we drove to the port Civitavecchia (yep, we started our cruise at the same spot, AND we were on a Costa ship). Pretty crazy...I am just glad that we were on the Costa Serena and not the Costa Concordia!! I can't even imagine how awful that is for the people that were on that cruise! Our first stop was Savona and we actually drove to Monaco. 1/9 was a sea day and on our 4 sea days we got amazing lectures from Bruce Porter. He said that he wanted to do kind of a mini education week and it was a great part of the trip. 1/10 we went to Olympia, Greece. 1/11 was a sea day. 1/12 was our first day in Israel and we docked at Ashdod. 1/13 was our second day in Israel and we went to the port of Haifa and then off to the sea of Galilee and Capernaum. 1/14 another sea day. 1/15 we docked at Izmir and we went to Ephesus. 1/16 we docked at Piraeus and we got to go to Athens. 1/17 was our last sea day and then on 1/18 we were back at Civitevecchia. I don't know if we passed the Concordia or if it was north of where we were at, but if we did pass it I was blissfully asleep at that time and didn't see it, thank goodness, I don't think I would like to have seen it, that would have been pretty creepy floating passed it on another cruise ship!! When we walked onto the dock in Civitavecchia we all breathed a sigh of relief that we had made it back without any incidents...we drove back to Rome and had another day of sightseeing in Rome and back to the hotel for one more night of sleep before we got up around 6 to go back to the airport to come home. It was an amazing trip and I am so glad to be able to say that I did it...but on the 19th I was so ready to come home!!! I had a cold around Christmas time and I thought I was better but on the trip it came back and I was not a happy camper for several of the days. Many in our group also got sick and it was sad to be sick for the trip. On Friday and Saturday when we got back I had a little case of the flu, I am just glad that that waited til I got home, that would have beeen even worse to deal with on the trip!! I can't believe how long this post is...and it doesn't even have any pictures!! </div>Marciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05475851658423619096noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-274012638293139197.post-71757509893387773542011-10-02T10:19:00.000-07:002011-10-02T10:33:38.459-07:00CA trip Pirates ride<div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgCEEzisenCugU3u9toPFwaKHw9PBclSaitFuqxR9VlREQo2cryBvHY-b4z4lAt6DrjhEpAaumdOwxXzLRdNhr1WmE-2LFcSOc2q2goC9-8HBNyce7lhSdG52gC133oXqJiTq11Ey4eQ0I/s1600/california+194.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

I don't think so!!! This barn was built in or around 1908...and today it is a thing of the past!!! My mom says that Amy was telling her some of the stuff we did in the barn... and my mom says that she had no idea that we did some of these things...like jumping from the loft down into piles of hay...that has definitely got to be my favorite! so the golf cart and tractor were so close...but were not hit by any of the flying debris...the garage was not so lucky...pieces of wood imbedded into the metal garage wall...broken lights inside the garage...<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxqP17YcQvW3M0veQFHJtj5YOnB0TwtvuPp6r-5_efp9LYZi9TjtiWUzr17FEyOmvdlrACbJrBPJUjwkMlQtJ2r9b7N2_BEUpgGUQzN5YBW4NqEo3nx7jOEb3HwvAZ-O00huO-EkZp4QM/s1600/DSCN1586.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: pointer" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628626342069449746" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxqP17YcQvW3M0veQFHJtj5YOnB0TwtvuPp6r-5_efp9LYZi9TjtiWUzr17FEyOmvdlrACbJrBPJUjwkMlQtJ2r9b7N2_BEUpgGUQzN5YBW4NqEo3nx7jOEb3HwvAZ-O00huO-EkZp4QM/s400/DSCN1586.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfkkxm1kwg1EdKNyf-Bxj1Fy-2vEe6dHHLELwuEXJIURG3ubu6C3Q6O8BMzsvJ4foz93nEEv6IDnhVNNJGplLg1AjE_otltAK_Mm2bqoD81rX2uq5qaaMwDTavB_slM-_oqtbdgvduE2k/s1600/DSCN1567.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: pointer" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628626340791313922" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfkkxm1kwg1EdKNyf-Bxj1Fy-2vEe6dHHLELwuEXJIURG3ubu6C3Q6O8BMzsvJ4foz93nEEv6IDnhVNNJGplLg1AjE_otltAK_Mm2bqoD81rX2uq5qaaMwDTavB_slM-_oqtbdgvduE2k/s400/DSCN1567.JPG" /></a><br /><br /><div><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie9JCh_C02aS_4U8GwIKIhCOdNpgt9uwKPypS6b50i3dWl9_4vqZ4GpLZ1Gka4m59tMkjFmhR8XjQ63SrG8WhLwrXRKNyAAEWMgSsynhIOW_kQ0Mio-MToZEIrPKGCWpFHZzgnSQvUQlM/s1600/DSCN1561.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: pointer" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628626333159533250" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEie9JCh_C02aS_4U8GwIKIhCOdNpgt9uwKPypS6b50i3dWl9_4vqZ4GpLZ1Gka4m59tMkjFmhR8XjQ63SrG8WhLwrXRKNyAAEWMgSsynhIOW_kQ0Mio-MToZEIrPKGCWpFHZzgnSQvUQlM/s400/DSCN1561.JPG" /></a>The end of an era...sad!!!

I know that is what the scarf is for and it will definitely be used tonight...anyway, I decided that I should take pictures so that everybody could see the differences since sometimes I wonder if people even notice when they don't say anything to me!!! so obviously the first 3 are the before pictures and the last 2 are the after pictures. <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8ApfsWm80Nlje_Bo9aSuOF9haaXvCuVSzkceGf_MCPKxIos61heh2pNHWhbwOPR27WT446A74_5qhuPoTFf-9jTIwDHq1FA49zoMsoy3SdAmsiKdbcnFQO96EKouqDtPNAvHEqlGsLZA/s1600/100_3471.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 266px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588506547877257362" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8ApfsWm80Nlje_Bo9aSuOF9haaXvCuVSzkceGf_MCPKxIos61heh2pNHWhbwOPR27WT446A74_5qhuPoTFf-9jTIwDHq1FA49zoMsoy3SdAmsiKdbcnFQO96EKouqDtPNAvHEqlGsLZA/s400/100_3471.JPG" /></a><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinNd1-F_IWn-sBAIB1Vd6HjGqBha9cVk6d90k-DebtvXZKnqnszR3VGTdoD2XQec0QMvu6yb4sk_Tp2l9_UUgrIxiMuD03Vdm3fF8gMdsQNbrc0GBHj46Vbgj2M5EwEDPpsq8ghHBXSLM/s1600/100_3462.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 266px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5588506534982299682" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinNd1-F_IWn-sBAIB1Vd6HjGqBha9cVk6d90k-DebtvXZKnqnszR3VGTdoD2XQec0QMvu6yb4sk_Tp2l9_UUgrIxiMuD03Vdm3fF8gMdsQNbrc0GBHj46Vbgj2M5EwEDPpsq8ghHBXSLM/s400/100_3462.JPG" /></a> I had to take this one!!!

I had told her that she could have her baby on my birthday, but she didn't want to work with me I guess...I still better be her favorite Aunty since my birthday is the closest to hers!!! Here is proud big brother...or does he not really know what is going on yet?? This is at the hospital and he probably didn't have a clue that she would be coming home with them!! Also in the picture grandma and one of the other aunts...not the favorite, that would be me!!!<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRsjclB7ZMajnehQDUMneGFyRxd47D82K0O5pw-v4m-qV8YlICG-hfzqbhe1GIx1YXckSB_43Zp_hFH7pnpvnNFabWInHdjVv5ErbC-ceiNSlewsxv1Ue8g0S4ORODTxp4qSGnUFp34_s/s1600/bethanynathaniel.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5537356411065139730" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRsjclB7ZMajnehQDUMneGFyRxd47D82K0O5pw-v4m-qV8YlICG-hfzqbhe1GIx1YXckSB_43Zp_hFH7pnpvnNFabWInHdjVv5ErbC-ceiNSlewsxv1Ue8g0S4ORODTxp4qSGnUFp34_s/s400/bethanynathaniel.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPxMFYvvz2EVCfDEDhVA5AmOk1jkvJoWBQuKpwuH69KKJ5skO6PTwXnqpM0-UTM1KqnaLSFZXLmXZ2tAF_wDwc9yE3eQXDEnJHC11_Tfe21Envxk9dJKz5JXHOmAEeAh2iP9llpCcE0HA/s1600/bethany3.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5537356407818618946" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiPxMFYvvz2EVCfDEDhVA5AmOk1jkvJoWBQuKpwuH69KKJ5skO6PTwXnqpM0-UTM1KqnaLSFZXLmXZ2tAF_wDwc9yE3eQXDEnJHC11_Tfe21Envxk9dJKz5JXHOmAEeAh2iP9llpCcE0HA/s400/bethany3.jpg" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf21scCYeLmWHkp5DlEAy6jwvR9yItwulvsp3_rqB-N6BgevoBi0eGdMPwUKG3gnizWGoF34uLswBy67U1D-FphVyXIQ07X_7zG9i0Q22nPAwTiH3VNwVbMafLKhItbzX508JXMx4ESUY/s1600/bethany2.jpg"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 400px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 300px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5537356252861990050" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhf21scCYeLmWHkp5DlEAy6jwvR9yItwulvsp3_rqB-N6BgevoBi0eGdMPwUKG3gnizWGoF34uLswBy67U1D-FphVyXIQ07X_7zG9i0Q22nPAwTiH3VNwVbMafLKhItbzX508JXMx4ESUY/s400/bethany2.jpg" /></a> Seriously...how long after the birth was this taken? cuz she looks really good doesn't she??!!!

She knew that I was probably already planning on going to the game...but she knows how much I love and appreciate my JAZZ...even when it is a hard thing to do...and her brother's friend had gotten seats on the 2nd row and there were 2 extra if I wanted to go with her...so I called the friend I was planning on going to the game with and asked her if she would hate me if I ditched her...it wasn't all bad though cuz I offered both of the tickets to her so she could still go and just find somebody else to go with her...when I told her the reason she totally understood...I will just have to make it up to her later in the season and go to another game with her so she can enjoy a game in my presence!!! We got down there around 5:15 and got a parking spot right across from the arena without having to pay a penny...anyway, the ticket included dinner at the 100 Club which is a restaurant on the 6th floor of the arena...I was in 7th Heaven!! the meal was good and it was so cool!!! I ended up taking a few (ok 88) pictures of my amazing night!!! This is the first time I have ever been able to look up at the jumbotron...but where I was sitting I didn't even need to look at it...I was able to actually watch the action on the floor!! My camera isn't the best and with some of the pictures you can totally see that...but some of the pictures aren't too bad!!

It was a fun day. We found out about the single rider and we were able to go on all of the single rider rides twice except for Splash mountain. I only needed to go on that one once. But by going as single riders instead of saying that we had to sit by each other on the rides we probably saved ourselves a couple of hours of waiting in line. the longest line we waited in was the last time we went on Tower of Terror at the end of the night. (I think that may be my new favorite ride at CA Adventure). <br />On the second day of our trip we went to visit our friend Amber. She is AMAZING!!!! She has 5 kids who are 2 years old and younger. She has a set of quads and a baby that is 4 months old, so you can imagine how crazy her days and nights are right now. I am sure in a few years it will get easier right...ok so maybe not!!! Anyway these are a few of the pictures I took at her house...and I can see that the boys look different but I never could figure out which one was which one...so I won't even try to pretend like I know. I just know that all 5 of her kids are the cutest kids ever and you can tell that they are very lucky and blessed!! <br />The only girl of the quads so I think we know who runs the place!!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOZUtiUOmkJs8GmoYocf0KZvCOZucnpmgNfXKEfKgZhr8f4_Bq7KhKJO1PcbvtEjiUhM7DMWMJMeRu-EIfAcLqAmkmsxlTyHZgBMAU-wPcV0edpJ60GF2FN-44G4WthHTbwQVqkJdej9o/s1600/100_3163.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 266px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 400px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5528654762326810466" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOZUtiUOmkJs8GmoYocf0KZvCOZucnpmgNfXKEfKgZhr8f4_Bq7KhKJO1PcbvtEjiUhM7DMWMJMeRu-EIfAcLqAmkmsxlTyHZgBMAU-wPcV0edpJ60GF2FN-44G4WthHTbwQVqkJdej9o/s400/100_3163.JPG" /></a> Then this is the 4 month old.

I think it will take me a few posts to get all of the pictures I want to share in here because I don't like uploading so many pictures all at once. So let's start nice and easy!!!

Timpanogas hike to anyone who wants to do it. It is not a very long hike, but with us out of shape people just make sure to give yourself plenty of time and take it easy. And definitely stay away from the edge you could fall or lose a water bottle very easily!!!<br /><br /><div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>Marciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05475851658423619096noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-274012638293139197.post-67079181727178040592010-09-19T15:11:00.000-07:002010-09-19T15:23:34.999-07:0060 day challengeI am doing a 60 day challenge that my sister told me about. A friend of hers decided that there were a few things she needed to work on and put together this challenge. She has talked about going private with the blog but so far hasn't done it, so you can still check out the blog. it can be found at betteryouandme.blogspot.com. So there are 10 goals that we have to work on every day and what I like about the challenge is that it isn't just all physical things we need to work on but it is an all around balanced kind of challenge. Today is day 28 and I am feeling pretty good about things. Some of the things that I thought I would struggle with were eating after 8, not eating sugar and of course the soda...but I have found that when I decide I want to do something I can usually do pretty good at it. The great thing about this challenge though, is that I don't have to do everything on the list for the full 60 days, each week we get a free point in each category so really I only have to go without my soda for 6 days and then I can have a soda!!! Through this challenge though I have found out a couple of things about myself that I will hope to be able to keep doing even after the 60 days are over. I have always liked to eat later and I have found out that I can stop eating by 8:00 and be ok. I have found that if I don't eat sweets I am not gonna die!!! some of the people doing the challenge have told me that they crave sugar and have to have it...I have found that I can say no to sweets even when they are right in front of me. Maybe knowing that I will have at least one day each week when I can eat sweets may be what is getting me through it, who really knows. I just know that I can do better than I have been doing and hopefully this was just the kind of kick start I needed to get me going in a better direction in all kinds of ways!! So even though you can't be an official part of this 60 day challenge you can check it out and see if maybe there are some things on the list of 10 goals that you can impliment in your life and work towards a better you.Marciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05475851658423619096noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-274012638293139197.post-46321584330639902412010-09-19T14:27:00.000-07:002010-09-19T14:46:20.394-07:00blessedI wish I could be better at this. So many fun things have happened in the last couple of months but when I get on the computer I don't really feel much like blogging...it is way more fun to check e-mails and play games and all that fun stuff than to update a blog...but how can I keep any kind of record of things that I have done when I struggle to write in a journal??!! One of the speakers today in Sacrament meeting spoke about gratitude and how keeping a journal can help us write down and show gratitude for our blessings. Life is pretty crazy sometimes but I know that I am so blessed...I hope that I always remember to show my gratitude for all that I have and that I don't commit the sin of ingratitude by not remembering to be grateful for all that I do have. Yesterday as I was talking to one of my friends I was again reminded about how grateful I am for the many wonderful and AMAZING girlfriends I have in my life, I get so caught up sometimes in being sad about being single at this stage in my life...and then I think about all of the friends that I have (and yes, that includes sisters) that I am so TRULY AND AMAZINGLY blessed. And then again at church today, talking to different sisters in my ward who I LOVE, LOVE LOVE and it makes me feel like I have another 100 or so dear sisters to be grateful for. Even sisters I meet today or last week or next week, just being a part of the same ward I feel so loved and cared for that the other stuff in life doesn't really matter so much and I know that my life couldn't be any better than it is. because if I would have gotten married 10 or 15 years ago I wouldn't have met most of these great people! So I am grateful to be where I am right now in my life.Marciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05475851658423619096noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-274012638293139197.post-42176475453580048892010-06-09T15:11:00.000-07:002010-06-09T15:29:32.665-07:00On Monday we went to the science museum...I think they said it was in St. Paul.
