Happy Birthday to Me!

Oh my goodness! What a fun birthday weekend! It was non-stop goodness I tell ya! I got to be in the beautiful California sunshine and with my most best HS friends and their cute kiddos! I will share some highlights!
Perfect Day #1 was spent at Newport Beach! Here are a couple of my besties, Adriane and Carrie
Aubrey and Tyler- they are a match made in heaven. They both put down food like there's been a famine, and if a some clumps of sand happen to get in their mouthful, meh! No biggy!
Love this battle scene (those are Dallin's legs :)
Holly looking fabulous with her two studs
The fresh baby Jude! This is Adriane's little guy and it was my first time meeting him, love at first sight
Birthday dinner at the Spaghetti Factory :) Mike is a nut and I love him!
Brynn and Glen! Brynn is prego with her 3rd and he's comin' soon!
"All the single ladies!" ha! Or just that one single lady in the middle...me
Perfect Day 2- DISNEYLAND!!! Awesome birthday adventure! I will forever love Carrie for trekking around both parks all day with me, along with her 3 boys!
Tyler was tall enough for Matterhorn! I held on to that kid for dear life!
His new nickname is Stitch! We discovered that this kid bites suckers, not fond of the licking technique. That takes way too much time!
Me and Fish...Madness!
Matt joined us and we traded in the two little ones so we could rock it on some big rides!
Day 3: Dodger Stadium! Man, it's been a long time! This place holds some serious childhood nostalgia for me!
Sari! It was so great to spend some quality time with her at the game!
Birthday cupcakes! This picture of Aubs is classic!
Dallin
Day 4: Triathlon baby! We are star athletes! And Fisher is a great photographer!

"This is living, this is what I call living..."

Musical theater is just in my blood! Whether I'm really all that good or not, I love playing on the stage so much! I've spent the past 2 months functioning on very little sleep, eating who knows what, but it's been worth it. "Thoroughly Modern Millie" is such a great show! I feel like it's kind of a dream come true that I have been able to be in it! I saw the one and only, amazing Sutton Foster as Millie from the front row on Broadway 6 years ago. In my dorkiness, I then taught myself the tap dance to "Forget About the Boy" by watching the Tony Award performance over, and over, over......
And now I do that dance every night! One more time! Hurray for closing night!

Oh how I enjoy my fellow cast members!!!! We have had such a blast during the whole process of this show! I am so happy to have met some new awesome friends as well as spend time with a couple pals from previous times! And it was the first time Cody and I have been in a show together!



We play YAHTZEE!! at intermission and at various times throughout the show when we're not on stage. It's an ongoing competition and it's the best time!
