New House!!!






My parents built a new house in West Haven and we moved them in on Friday and Saturday. They are so happy with their new house. It is gorgeous. I absolutely love it. I hope someday I can own a house like this one. Here are some pictures of the house. Nielson Homes did a great job in building their house. They love their neighborhood and their new ward.

Josh Grban!!


So Josh Groban is coming to Salt lake city in August 13,2011. I started liking him a few years ago when he released his Awake cd. I had the priviledge of going to his concert in 2009 for the Awake Tour. Now he released a new cd "Illumunations" and he is going in tour again. Ofcourse I wanted to go again. So we got the tickets a few days ago and I am so excited. We were thinking of getting the lower bowl tickets but they were kind of pricey. So I settled in getting the best seats available in the upper bowl. I think they are pretty good seats just not very close but we will be able to see the stage pretty good. I know that it doesn't matter where we sit we will enjoy the music and the effect of the concert.

In the remodeling Mood!

Okay, so we have a couple of projects in the works for our house. We are finishing our basement (finally it was about time). It has been a slow process but we are getting there. We have also purchased laminate floors for our kitchen and dining, tile for our 2 main entrance to the house. We have so many plans for improving our home that we are so excited to begin. I will be posting pictures as we finish our projects. I think we are starting on the floor next weekend. Hopefully by the end of the year we are planning in getting new appliances for our kitchen and new counter tops.

Getaway!!!!!











This last weekend we went to Logan for a little getaway. We stayed at the Crystal Inn in Logan. We had dinner the first night at Hamilton Steak House. Jorge went there a few months ago with his work. He loved the place and has wanted to take me since then. We finally made it and went and really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. Its a very nice place with really good steak. The kids ate all their food, they loved it as well. After dinner it was snowing alot!!! We arrived at the hotel and went swimming with the kids for about 2 hours. We were able to go with our friends The Gonzales's. They meet us there and stayed at the same hotel as us, our rooms were right next to each other. The next day we went to the Hardware Ranch to see the Elk. We have never been there and the Gonzalez's had been there before and they told us about it. We were amazed at how big the Elk are and how many there were. The day was beautiful, the skies were blue and the contrast with the white snow it just looked stunning. Eventhough a snow storm went through the night before the weather was excellent Saturday. After Hardware Ranch we went to eat lunch at The Blue Bird Grill in Downtown Logan. The food was very good and their rolls are to die for. Then we headed home for my mom's 60th birthday surprise party. It was just alittle party with all the kids. She was very surprised and happy. We had a good time eating cake and ice cream. All in all we had a very relaxing weekend and we enjoyed ourselves. We loved the hotel, it was clean, the rooms were comfortable and the breakfast was good.
