Lately...Part Two

So I had to split up my post because it got a little lengthy.  Here are some more happenings of late :)


This is a few sundays ago when Ty, Neal, Sam, and me went to the Andy Warhol museum in downtown.  Andy Warhol was one heck of a weird guy.

We had a little baby shower get together earlier this week for Katie and Tiffany, both of whom are expecting baby girls this winter!  It was really fun, and I'm way bummed I didn't get a group picture...

I fell madly in love with those little pink moccasins...and I have a picture of every girl individually with Katie and Tiffany, so any of you who were there and want pictures get me your email address!!  Good luck girls!

Karaoke this week...I'm afraid it may have been our last week :(  I'm so glad we found karaoke at Jay's, it was really helpful practice for my aspiring vocal performance career.  I've probably said this a thousand times, but I have so many great videos of performances from Jay's, and I am going to put them together in a video whenever Ty has some time to help me with it :)  So look forward to that!


Karaoke this week...L-R Stephan, Omar, Nate, Neal, Jordan, Big Mouth, and me

Lately...Family Fun

I haven't been able to post at all lately, but I've done a lot of fun things over the last month or so, so I'm going to throw up a huge all encompassing post :)  Enjoy...


FAMILY REUNION
I got to go home in July for a family reunion with my mom's side of the family.  She was in charge of planning the reunion so I got to help her with some of the preparations.  It was really fun, and short.  I loved being able to see my nieces and nephew for a couple days!

We did this awesome obstacle course that was really fun, but I didn't get any pictures!  So just picture me doing all kinds of cool acrobatics.

A few weeks after the family reunion, my mom and dad came out to Pittsburgh to see Ty and me.  We got to go see some cool places around the city...
My dad and me by a fountain in dowtown, and my mom and me at a lookout above Pittsburgh.

We went out to Kirtland while my parents were here, which was great because none of us had ever been there.  The picture on the left is in front of the John Johnson farm, which is where Joseph Smith lived when he was tarred and feathered by the mob.  On the right is my mom and me in front of the Kirtland temple.  It was really neat to see everything.


We stopped in Amish country on the way home from Kirtland.  Pretty much what that entailed was seeing all kinds of handmade furniture, (picture on the left), and buggies driving down the street with large orange hazard signs on back :)

Fellow Bloggers

To all those out there who are wondering why in the world I won't post something new...if such a person does exist: A book has recently entered my life that has made it impossible to do much else than read.  While I've been needing to add some new posts, such as my Utah family reunion, parents trip to Pittsburgh, and Karaoke movie; I currently do not have the time.  So, adieu, until I finish Breaking Dawn.
