Fun with friends

I went to California this weekend and hung out with my dad but I also got to meet up with some HS friends! Some of them I haven't seen in 20 years! We had alot of fun, we went to dinner and talked for over 4 hours! There's alot to catch up on when it's been 20 years!! We had alot of fun and can't wait to do it again, and with even more friends who couldn't make it this time. We also have our 20 year reunion coming up this summer that is going to be a blast! Jeff made it through the weekend, the concert was good but they didn't make it through the whole thing. I put some pics of the California coast line, I tool these pics from the plane yesterday on my way home. The coast line was so pretty at the end of the day and alot of people on the plane noticed it as we pulled back inland to head for Vegas. So many cameras started going off at the same time mine did! I'm from Cali and if you can get a good coastline pic, get it cause it doesn't last too long!

This Weekend!!!

This weekend is going to be so much fun!! I am heading out to the airport Friday morning and flying to California. I am going to hang out with my dad, probably go to the movies (we both LOVE movies) and just having fun! Then Saturday I am meeting up with a few friends from high school for dinner. I haven't seen them in 20 years!! Yes, I graduated in 1989, 20 years ago this June! I can't believe that it has been 20 years! Our high school reunion is this summer so I can't wait to see so many more friends from 20 years ago. And thanks to Facebook, I have already been in contact with alot of them! After Saturday night, my dad and I have some plans for Sunday and then I will be flying home Sunday night. Just a quick trip but I do this about every 3 months or so and it is so relaxing, a little break for me and I get to hang out with my dad.
On the other hand, I chose the wrong weekend!!! Hinder is coming to St. George!! I like Hinder's music and I would so be going to this concert if my plane tickets hadn't already been bought for California! BUT, thanks to one of my daycare kids parents who is one of the stage crew for Hinder, Jeff got ALL ACCESS tags to the whole concert!! Can you believe it? SO, Jeff, who doesn't even really know Hinders music is taking the 3 boys to the concert this Saturday! I am sooo jealous! He is getting in the concert and sitting up by the stage and then has all access to the back after the concert! Cool huh? Jacob thinks he is pretty cool that he is only 6 and gets to see Hinder in concert and go back stage to see them! I told Jeff he is in big trouble if he forgets the camera!!!
So, as you can see, the Warner's have a busy, but fun, weekend! On top of me being gone, Jeff has the responsibility to get the boys to 2 birthday parties, scouts and a basketball game! Can he do it??? I think he can, and he has phone numbers of a few of you reading this so if you get a call, would you please give him a hand? hehehe
I hope everyone has a fun weekend and I will post pictures after I get back!!

Basketball

All three boys played basketball this year. Tyler and Ryan played in a different league than Jacob so theirs started in December and finished today. Jacobs just started last week and we go until March. So, only two weeks did we attend 3 games in ONE day! Tyler and Ryan did awesome this year, both scored baskets and had lots of fun. Jacobs team is so fun to watch! They are just learning the game and do some of the funniest moves! Especially my son! I think he is using a few of his wrestling techniques to block the other team! But, he is very, very excited about his jersey! So, a little more basketball, then Jacob starts soccer in March then all three play baseball! I am also so proud of Tyler! He tried out for a competitive travel baseball team and made the team!! So, he is not playing soccer this year but playing the travel team (tournaments are once a month) and then little league too. He loves athletics and not only playing the game but being a part of a team. I am so proud of all three of my boys! You know I am always there rooting you on!

I haven't posted in awhile! FB is driving me crazy!!! So, I thought I would post these pics of my two older boys. Tyler earned the artist Webelo pin and Ryan earned his Wolf! Earning the Wolf is a big deal. He now only has the acheivements to earn until he advances on to a Bear in August. I love the scouting program, it teaches the boys so much and prepares them so much for life. Thanks to Justin and Diana for helping Tyler and Ryan!

This past Friday we headed up to Salt Lake City for the Monster Trucks and Motocross show! We had so much fun!! We got into Salt Lake City just as it started to snow. We shopped in a few stores, grabbed some dinner and when we walked outside, there was already about 4 inches on the ground. We got settled in the hotel and when we woke up the next morning there were about 6 inches. (And we were only downtown!) The mountains got blasted! The boys liked it, but all three stated how happy they are that we live in a place that doesn't snow much. I think memories of shoveling quickly came to their minds from living up there for two years!! Saturday morning we woke up, found a place to eat breakfast and headed for the E Center. The boys were so excited they could barely handle it! We had pit passes so we got to go in 2 hours before the show started. All three boys got autographs from all 6 of the monster truck drivers and all 8 of the motocross riders. They even got to ride in a monster truck!! Also in the pit was a WWF star. He hosts a WWF show on Monday nights. I even got to put on the crown cause he told the boys I was a cool mom! So, after two hours hanging out with all the riders and drivers, we ran to the car to put all our souvenirs (and we had alot!) away and then got to our seats. We had awesome seats smack in the middle of the E Center and only up 10 rows! Our seats were perfect! The monster truck drivers raced, the motocross riders freestyled over a HUGE jump and then some local truck drivers came and raced around the track. That was funny! Overall, the show was great! All three boys had such a great time and want to go back up north for the Monster Jam in February. We haven't decided if we will go to that or head to Las Vegas for the freestlye motocross. The boys liked the Monster Trucks but they loved it when the motocross riders jumped, flipped, did no handers and all sorts of tricks over the jump, which did I already say was HUGE???!!! It was such a fun time for the two days we were gone but boy was it cold! It was nice to get back to our warm 45 degree weather! hahaha

A Wonderful Christmas!

Christmas was wonderful this year! We stayed in Utah and didn't do the drive to California. We had just done it at Thanksgiving so that was a nice break! Jeff's brother's came into town and we all spent Christmas Eve together with the kids so hyper and excited for Santa to come! My niece is just the cutest thing and Jake and her decided to entertain us all with princess christmas music, ballet dancing and Jake's breakdancing. It was so funny and I have really good blackmail pictures for when he gets older!! The boys woke up (REALLY EARLY!!) to find what Santa left. Tyler got an IPOD Nano, and Ryan and Jacob got new bikes. We opened a bunch of gifts at our house before heading over to grandma's. Then we opened even more! I was surprised we could even see each other under all the wrapping paper! The boys got some really nice gifts from everyone. One gift was left in an envelope hidden in the tree. It was from my dad in California. So, thanks to grandpa, we are heading up north on Friday to play in the snow, shop a little in SLC, stay in a hotel and then wake up Saturday and go to the Steel Thunder Jam. It is a show full of Monster Trucks and Motocross. My boys dream! Then, to top it off, he included a pit pass for us to spend two hours before the show with the drivers and motocross riders. The boys were literally screaming when they heard this! We can't wait to on Friday! Although we just heard it is supposed to snow Saturday so we might be staying Saturday night too if the weather is too bad! Friday morning one of my sister in laws and I headed out early to find all the good deals at the sales. The boys and the kids all headed up to Pine Valley to play in the snow. What a great holiday we had! I hope everyone has a good New's Year's Eve! We are heading to First Night, if you haven't gone before, it's alot of fun, full of entertainment, fun things for the kids and good food! I hope everyone has a wonderful New Year!
