My brother Jason had some training during the month of June so Karlie and Josslyn hung out here in Utah and we got to spend time with them.

Joss and I. I was in my workout clothes and she wanted to wear my  headband. I love this pic of us!

On August 15th Ben, Me, Mom P and Dad P headed out to Ohio for Savannah's first birthday! We flew standby so to make it work we flew from SLC to Long Beach to NYC to Pittsburgh and then drove to Ohio :D

The Fam at the pavillion we had the birthday party at. It started pouring rain and the BBQ's were outside which is why the guys are soaked.

Savannah showing me here balloons.

Ben is still working at Staker Parson still likes it most days... I am now working for IHC...again. Yes... count   'em. Since I left IHC in March I've been to 1800 contacts, Spectrum Academy, MCA,  A Step Forward Home Health. Crazy. Stressful. I've been working with my counselor and looking back obviously it was a traumatic experience for me that through my whole "plan" for a loop. I went back to work to early and freaked out and really ended up missing my job. Well I love IHC's benefits and came to realize that they are a great company even though some of their management kind of screwed it up with me. I'm not a CNA currently with them I work in their billing office on the self pay team. I actually really like it. The people are great. Its a great schedule for school and I get all the great benefits and it pays more than a CNA...crazy. Also, last minute like last night I decided to sign up for school this semester because my finanacial aid went through and I got a grant. So I'm taking Chem online, a Chem lab once a week, and a workout class in the morning. Yeah we have a crazy random life... Love it!

Date Night!

Last night Ben and I had date night :)! We did some out of the ordinary things for us. My pictures are backwards as to which was done in order but that's OK! First we went to go see the mansion at the Salt Lake Parade of Homes. We parked right by the Draper Temple it was so beautiful! The guy who owns it is one of the the agents for Lionell Richie, Justin Bieber, Usher, and worked with Michael Jackson. The house was amazing! It had a ballroom, a theater room, two kitchens and of course much more. It was huge! Then we headed over to City Creek and went into Tiffany's, Rolex, Boss, and then we went over and got two pieces of  cheesecake to go from the Cheesecake Factory! It was such a fun night!

The Shack

I just finished reading The Shack. It blew my mind. It was amazing. One of the best books I have read. It made me see things with a whole new perspective. It was definitely life changing. I would recommend it to everyone no matter where in life you are or  what your religious beliefs may be. Have an open mind and trust me you won't regret reading it. I want to go back and read it a again and this time take notes there were so many amazing points made that I don't want to forget. I see things a little differently now and I feel at peace with many things. This will be a book I will be reading every year along with Tuesday's with Morrie another life changing book.
