Happy Birthday to me!!!!!!!!

Scott and I have been saving a little $$$ here and there for my birthday present this year, both of our parents actually went in on it also- I am so happy and have wanted one for so long...Yes its a vinyl lettering machine... I love vinyl lettering and I figured that I buy so much of it for gifts and my self that I should buy my own and start my own little thing. I am so excited for it and I cannot wait to start making stuff for people. Thank you Scott, Mom, Dad ,Chris & Will- I love you all...

Scott & His Dog- Kona

You know those wierd people that do stuff with their dogs- ya we are them. pathetic.. For now our 2 pups are our children, and yes we kinda love them alot. Anyways, we like to do stuff with our dogs, our Lab Kona loves to swim and jump in the water to retrieve stuff, One day we saw this competition where the dogs run down a ramp and jumps off a dock for distance, we knew our lab would love to do this, along with Scott. So we entered her into one ( dont laugh ) . This is her 2nd time doing it, sometimes you can see the event on ESPN. There is a huge dog park in Gilbert where they have a dock that goes into a little lake made for dogs, so that is Kona's heaven. - Here is a few pictures of the big competition, to tell the truth I cant decide who was having more fun, Scott or Kona. Kona did good, we werent able to go to the finals becuase they were on Sunday, so we just jumped for fun. She did win a ribbon though!!!- WE ARE SUCH LOSERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phoenix Suns Vs. Utah Jazz 3/7/08

It all started Friday as I was leaving work, A guy I work with asked if I wanted Suns tickets for Friday nights game, He said one of the suppliers we work with had tickets for our company and that I could have them, So I had no idea what kinda of tickets they would be, I didnt even know who they were playing. I went to the supplier and picked up the 2 tickets, I opened the envelope they were in, and lets just say I almost had heart attack...$195.00 each ticket, SECTION 113 ( straight across from the Jazz team ) ROW 4..Yes row 4...lets just say if I was to trip down the stairs Nash would be catching me. Scott and I were so excited... The game was so awesome. We were so close it was un real. The players looked taller than you could imagine, especially Dumbo Shaq, he is a giant. ( Yes I am not a fan of Shaq, but I admit he was fun to watch because of his hugeness ) I love Nash, Stoudemire & Bell. ( **for Cordae & my family .. Oh my gosh I saw Steve Nash Sweat ..) Scott and I can already name the players of the Jazz team also, I think after the painful loss that night I like Utah more..:)..It was a big disapointment to see the Suns winning the whole game, I mean the whole game until that last minutes and they handed the game to the Jazz. It was awful.. but it was so fun to watch and for sure probably the one and only time we will ever sit that close. Thanks Whitton for the tickets..

Camelback Mountain
Scott and I hiked to the top of camelback mountain yesterday. For those of you that have not done it you should totally try it, it is a fun, hard, hot hike, plus workout. It is so cool to be at the top and look down on the whole Valley. Going up is pretty hard, but for me going down was the worst becuase of my knee surgery, my right leg is still kinda week.

It was well worth the 3 hour hike.

It's a bird...It's a plane...No it's a zip line

My family has a creek that runs behind their house in their property, well my dad had a awesome idea to install a zip line that runs from the top of the trees over the creek. He has a property that is 5 acres, his neighbor has 5, and the next guy has 5. Well the guy that is next to our neighbors, so like 10 acres down wanted to get in the "zip line" with my dad, he is a contractor so he said he would build all of platforms and landing areas to help my dad out, so they extended this zip line about 15 acres long. You start at point A and go to point B, you hook on another wire and go from point B to point C, then you hook on another wire and go from point C to point B, then from point B to point D, then from point D to point A. It is about 40+ feet high in the air, and you are strapped in by the waiste in a harness, the platforms are super super high and you are right over the water. It is very safe and you will not fall, but just the feeling of being so high is awful.

Here are a few pictures of some of us going down it. you can see how high you are and how tall the platforms are in the trees.
If anyone wants to come to Snowflake to do this fun thing, hit me up. IT IS AWESOME!!! little kids as young as 5 to full grown men were doing this, so it is safe for anyone.

this is the little valley area my family lives in, it is beautiful in the summer!

this shows how high the platforms are, look how small Scott looks

one of the platforms, the top is where you take off and the bottom is the landing area

Another platform

Scott almost landing

A little diagram of where the take off areas are

This is a little section for all my fellow Queen Creekians!!!!! I almost cried today driving down Ironwood,!!!! it is 4 lanes, it is 4 lanes, it is 4 LANES.... I have not been so happy driving to Queek Creek in the past 2 years, this means only 35-40 min. drives to and from work instead of 1 hr- 1 1/2 hrs.
