Amy and Ryan's Graduation

How lucky we were to have both Amy and Ryan graduating from BYU this Spring? Amy called and got permission to walk with Ryan so it was just one ceremony for us to go to...plus I think they had a good time sharing the experience together. Here are some pictures from the day. Congratulations to both of you, I'm SO proud of you guys!!!!

My Birthday!!!!!

This year I decided that I was going to get out of town on my birthday. I made plans to go to Colorado but due to snow and a few other complications that plan didn't work out. So, then I needed to come up with another plan because I was already in vacation mode and had the time off from work. So, as it turned out Becky had a buddy pass that was going to expire the end of the month and it would be a shame to have it go to waste. We were able to put that buddy pass to good use and arrange a last minute trip to Las Vegas!

So, we got to Vegas first thing Monday morning and we went to go pick up our rental car and the lady at the counter said she could give us a deal on a convertible Mustang if we wanted and we could choose the color. Well, that was NOT a hard decision, especially since it was my birthday!!! I needed something fun to cruise the strip in (especially since it was Becky's first time in Vegas.) Here are a few pictures of the car...it was SO much fun!!!!


We had to take a self-portrait in the Mustang. We had SO much fun just driving around in the Mustang. It was definitely one of the highlights of our trip. Although, having it get a flat tire when we left the Rio late that night. Thank goodness Becky is SUPER Woman and she changed the tire all by herself! Go Becky!! But it was fun and just added to the adventure. :)

I was having a little fun with the camera before we went out. :)

I couldn't decide which one I liked better. ;)

Becky and I ready and waiting for the car so we can go out and celebrate! (Love valet parking in Vegas!)

Then on Tuesday before we left as we were driving down the Strip I saw a place that did Hennas...and of course I had to go. I think it's fun for just a couple of weeks!

It was a great last minute trip...we had SO much fun playing, shopping, driving, hanging out and relaxing! I couldn't have asked for a better birthday! Thanks Rich for watching your kids so that Becky was able to come play with me in Las Vegas!
