18/365-Kyleigh

The little girl that was dropped off in my sisters living room when she was 3 months old. Just sitting in her car seat content and looking at us with her big brown eyes and us looking back at her...like now what?
7 years, 8 months later she is a little care taker of those around her looking after the needs of others, laughing, giggling, being a sweet-older sister, daughter, niece, cousin, grand-daughter to those who love her.

This was this morning actually right above my house (about) we were coming in from the south over Mt. Timpanogos and NW right about Utah Lake over Saratoga Springs into the Airport.

15/365-I love the 80's

Ben downloaded a couple months ago the top 100 songs from the 1980-1989 (yes over 900 songs)and I have made a playlist on my Ipod of all the 80's songs I remember.
BUT I was wondering when is the side ponytail going to come back, to be honest I have been wearing my hair on the side for a few months now, hoping that it will come back in style so far no one had totally followed my lead...boo.

14/365-good friends





(1997)
 I have a lot of good friends that have definitely made me who I am today, my sense of humor (a lot of them but some great memories, but, maybe started in 4th grade with Jen (C)J. - our prank phone calls or "helping the 2nd graders read", my love for fashion or style (Whitney). Stacy inspires me to be a better and more organized Mom. There are so many qualities and life lessons that I have learned from my friends.
But I want to send a shout out to a good friend of mine that really inspires me and reminds me how much I love my Savior and how much he loves me. He has blessed me with her friendship. I have so much in my life with SO many good friends and I wouldn't be anything like I am today without you.
Thank you all for being my friend!!

Flying in this morning from Butte, Montana. One of the top reasons I love my job is the view out the window. Seriously I love it!!

12/365-the side you never see


I was snapping some random photos for this 365 project I mistakenly agreed to:)
I was teasing Ben that I was taking photos in his favorite pose, sitting on the couch, holding the remote watching hockey. He turned and gave me this funny grin. I laughed and walked away as he says..."you better delete that"...he knows me better than that, of course not....it will be posted on the blog for everyone to see the side I only get to see.
