Pictures

We haven't been up to much lately, so these pictures are a little random.
Mom and Fred gave us Jazz tickets as usual, and we had so much fun at the game


The weather is finally starting to warm up a little, so Brittany (with her bike) and me and Lorrie FINALLY were able to go rollerblading. For anyone who doesn't know- I LOVE TO ROLLERBLADE and try to go all the time when the weather is good at the Jordan River parkway

My office all went to the UDA convention and stayed at the Little America. I love this office and these are the ladies I work with (missing is Dr Swenson, Tiffany, and Denise)


It must be that time of year because Brian is NOT wearing Boots!!!
Mud, mud, and more mud

Lehman Caves

Last weekend we were invited by our friends, Brett and Jenny, to go to some caves on the Utah/Nevada border, by Baker NV and stay in their motor home. We weren't sure we were up for it at first, but then went and had so much fun!!! I had no idea the caves were out there and in Great Basin National Park- way worth the trip.
Here is Brett and me playing pool at Bakers hotel/convenience store/RV campsite/cafe/casino (only a few slot machines)

Happy New Year!!!

It has been a very crazy few weeks, and I am just now updating our blog.
We are in sunny, awesome Arizona celebrating the new year, and it is currently about 80 degrees!!!! We are going to sit by the pool in a little bit, life couldn't be better.
I posted some pictures from the last couple weeks and will update soon when we return from Arizona next week.
I haven't posted many pictures from BC Finishing, LLC but plan to soon also. Brett has been staying very busy with projects. Some of the things he has been working on include:
UCCU Credit Unions
Tuscani's restaurant
Oquirrh Temple
a new development in Deer Valley
and a few others.
He has also been finishing our pool table, which I will post pictures of soon also. I think we have pictures of some of these projects including the Paradise Bakery in American Fork
