You only live once, but if you work it right, once is enough

What have we been up to?

Well we haven't been up to much lately. We are just busy with our day to day life's.
* Jaime and I have been busy with work. Sephoria is putting a warehouse here in Salt Lake, and Jaime has turned in his resume. We will see what happens. I am getting ready to go out of town again on May 6th. I will be in Detroit for a few days. Looking forward to it. I really love my job, they have been so good to me.
* Carson has been playing soccer, Friday night they tied the game to the best team in there league. Those little boys work so hard, but they have so much fun playing together. Carson is looking forward to the summer and can't wait until school is out. I gotta find something for him to do all summer. Any suggestions???
* Abbi is still in dance and loves every minute of it. She will put her tap shoes on at home and dance around. She is working hard to get ready for her recital in June. She loves to go to preschool to see her friends and to learn new things.
* This weekend we decided to do a little Spring Cleaning. I started in the house and cleaned out the kids rooms, toys, closets, under beds, and drawers. Then we went outside and WOW! do we have our work cut out for us. We have alot of spring cleaning to do outside. I am looking forward to it, I would rather do yard work then house work. Abbi helped me mow the front lawn today, Jaime gets the back. The kids really enjoyed being outside. They sure get wiped out playing outside.

Have you ever seen the Worlds Largest Catsup Bottle???


Well we ventured out one night to go find it. It started in Applebees at dinner. We saw a picture of it so we decided to take our pictures next to it. We thought that was pretty cool and that would satisfy our curiosity. Well after laughing and taking pictures by the picture in Applebees the hostess had a friend tell us where to find it. I got instructions and we ventured off to go find it. You would never think it was such a big deal but to us we were on a quest to find the Worlds largest Catsup Bottle. After a few detours and a good look at old downtown Collinsville, I saw it ahead. It was all lit up and looked like it was floating in air from aways back.




It was quit an adventure, Thanks Kathy, Kim and Nanette for all the fun we had in St. Louis.

CKC St. Louis


Here is the Rusty Pickle carnies that worked the booth. Me, Kim, Kathy, Nanette. If you ever worked a show before you know what I mean by carnies. You set up one day work the next 2 days and then tear down for the next show. And you move on to another show and do it all over again.

Trip To St. Louis

I flew to St. Louis last Wednesday for a Creating Keepsakes Convention. We got in about 4:00. We went and found our hotel and then we decided to go to dinner at the Hard Rock.





After dinner we decided to go find the famous Arch that St. Louis is known for. Here are a few pictures. It was so big and so cool to see. They say its the gateway to the west. I guess I better freshen up on my history.
