Accident Update

Today marks one week from my accident. Since then I've been trying to take it easy, but today is my real big day working all day and night. My neck and back still hurt pretty bad but it is slowly getting better. If anyone knows a good masseuse please let me know! The main task now is trying to find a car. Cars aren't really selling so dealers don't have much of a stock to chose from. We were hoping to get an other Honda Element but with our options it looks pretty bleak. Thanks for all your prayers and support. I know it has made me recover faster! And please let me know if you know of any good deals on any newer Sport Utility with low miles and no damage. Thanks Again and Happy Holidays. I love you all!!

I Crashed the Element!!!!

I wish I had gotten a last picture of our car before it got towed away but it's true, I totaled the Honda Element yesterday. I am so glad that I am still alive. I was on I-215 southbound on the east bench just past 45th south when my car hydroplaned. (Monday morning it was wet and snowing really bad!) I spun 6 or 7 times then my car flipped on the drivers side and skidded to a stop on the left hand side of the rode. I knew I was close to the free way wall so I was preparing my self to be completely crushed! Luckily the car stopped before hitting the wall. It took a while to finally climb out of the passenger side door but once I did I was so happy to be alive. 4-5 people were there just to help pull me out of my car. At the time I could tell that my knee hurt and I had a headache but nothing else seemed to be wrong. Boy was I wrong!, I woke up this morning unable to hardly move my neck. I now have shooting pains down my neck to both of my shoulder blades. After being on multiple anti-inflammatories and pain relievers I am still in a lot of pain. I will be going to the Dr. tomorrow to see if anything is wrong with me. But again I am just so happy I am alive and that I didn't hit anyone else. I am so grateful for my Heavenly Father. I know that he was watching over me!
This is what my beautiful car used to look like before the crash. Now it is a mangled pile of medal and rubber. Oh I am really going to miss it!!!

Cold Turkey Run

Before my trip to Escalante on Thanksgiving morning I ran a 4 mile race called the Cold Turkey Run up City Creek with my mom, my brother Scooter, and his wife Jayme. Scott pushed their two kids, Bennett and Carter, in a running stroller. It was so fun! Scott and Jayme do this run every year and I am so happy they invited me. They wore their traditional turkey hats and it was pretty funny to see random people want to take pictures with them.
I looked like I came straight out of the 80's with my baggy sweater, high cut shirt, short shorts, and tights. Oh the price I pay to stay warm.

I always do this pose before a race, cause I'm going to be number one! haha not really. But I did finish the 4 miles in 35 mins flat. I was hoping to make it under 40 mins. So I was pleasantly surprised! I am totally ready to do it again next yr. and try and beat my time.

Thanksgiving Weekend in Escalante

For Thanksgiving Weekend Jeff (Jake's Dad). Took us to Escalante for some hiking and fun! We had a really good time except for Angie's car breaking down on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere, but even that was an adventure!
Our first hike was lower calf creek falls. I've done it before but never in the fall. It was very beautiful and very cold!

Jake and his brothers Dan and Nick

The next day we went to Devil's Garden and climbed around. That was so fun!! After that was when poor Angie's Nissan Extera broke down on the way to "Hole in the Rock". But we still had fun hanging out together at our B&B after Jeff towed Angie's car with his Jeep Wrangler. I have a new found appreciation for a Jeep.

I made it!


I'm posing for the camera while Jake helped Nick up

This little cave was fun to crawl up into. BTW the girls are laughing so hard cause Dan kick a bunch of rocks down onto Angie and it freaked us out!
the next Male Charlie's Angels

I think this picture is cute. It looks like Jake is watching over us so we don't fall

Hanging OutJake and the boys Jumping. I know it's weird but we were laughing pretty hard! Look at their faces! It's classic.

I deciding to join in the fun

who says white guys can't jump

Angie had to ride home with the Tow Truck driver along with Dan. What an adventure. We still don't know what is wrong with her car. Good Luck Angie! Love you!

Twilight Verdict: Amazing!!

Ok so I loved Twilight! I know people are complaining at how cheesy and corny it was but that is just how the book was! It met all my expectations and then some. It was just fun to see my favorite book come to life, and Rob Pattinson was even more dreamy than I thought he could be. I literally squealed when I first saw him on screen. ahh... it's so nice to feel like a teenage girl again.

Abbey (Jake's sister) and I got to the theater at 7pm to wait in line. We were able the save 12 seats for all our friends and family that attended. There were a few disgruntled people but for the most part we didn't have to fight too much for our seats. The party before the movie was really fun! It was so much better than just going to a movie. Every few minutes there would be bouts of screams of excitement in different areas of the theater as girls were realizing the movie they had been waiting for for so long was about to start. You could literally feel the estrogen in the room! It was to say the least an amazing night.

Abbey and I waiting in line for our amazing seats

As soon as we got in the theater I yelled for Abbey to Run and we headed straight for the back row. We made it in time with only a few seconds to spare before people wanted our seats!

here is a picture of the raffle drawing. There were some super cool gifts! Abbey won Botox, haha. She better give that to someone who really needs it. I really doubt her young 17 yr old face needs Botox.me with my good friends Christine and Brandi

The Fellows coven! Me Tamara, Erin, Allyx, Angela, and Abbey

My mom and her friend Paula, and my sister in-law Jayme and her sister Jana came as well. The night was so crazy I forgot to get everyones picture. I just wanted to thank everyone who came. You all made it so fun! I hope we can do it all over again for "New Moon"!

TWILIGHT IS TONIGHT!

The wait is finally over, Twilight is tonight!! I hope everyone who sees it tonight enjoys it! If you don't just don't tell me. haha!!

Twilight is almost here!

Twilight comes out in less than 4 days! I am so excited! For all of you that don't know, my business (Namaste Med Spa) is involved with Visions Salon (along with many other local businesses) at premiere night. Visions rented out two theaters at Jordan Commons and for an hour before the movie there will be an amazing party with gift bags, games, and a raffle with amazing gifts! It is going to be so much fun! I can't wait.

I am in love with Rob Pattinson (Edward) so here are some of my favorite photos of him. ENJOY!
