Snowbasin Closing :(

Yesterday was the closing day at Snowbasin -- It is so depressing! Mike, my Mom, Jake, the pups and I went up in the afternoon to drop some things off at the Patrol room. We decided to stay and enjoy the live music on the plaza. There were so many old drunk people, it was such a great time watching them dance away, and the band was great! And it was so nice to sit in the warm sun in such beautiful surroundings! I think I could live up there! As we left Mike and I declared next weekend a "Bird Weekend"! Meaning, we will be skiing Snowbird next weekend, we are already going through withdrawals!

I honestly don't know what I am going to do with my summer. I have thus far created a list of things I want to learn to do, or plan on getting better at.

- I am going to learn to fly fish, I have requested a grey pole with pink string from my step father who builds poles

- Hiking - I plan on doing hikes around the area that I have always heard about -- yet never had the desire to do

- Running - I am going to do a marathon next year, so regardless of what it takes I am going to become a runner. I have my shoes, and schedule and I am slowly working towards endurance...it's going to be a long process :)

- Climbing - I think I will really like the coming down part, but I am sure the getting up there is too....we'll see

- Yoga - This is in honor of my Stephy! I know I will love it, I just need to start going...or have her move here to train me! This will be good for the marathon training as well!

Puppy ER...Take 2

Friday night I came home from Park City around 11:30, from having sushi with my bro and some friends. I went into my mom's room to grab Syd and headed into the living room to watch a show or two. It was at that point I realized my poor puppies face was all swollen.

I took her into my mom's room to see if she had noticed the swelling earlier in the night, but she hadn't. She said the only thing she had eaten differently was a pigs ear dog treat. We figured that some benadryl would take care of the swelling, so I gave her a half a pill and just kept an eye on her. Well at 5:30am she woke up, throwing all over the place. Within 30 minutes she had thrown up 7 times. So I rushed her to the emergency vet.

Since it was only 6 am there was limited people on the road and the ER was empty. The doctor got her in and checked her out, she said she could feel that Syd's stomach was still really upset, and she was concerned that the benadryl had not taken the swelling down more. Then recommended 4 different shots, along with hydrating her, they were concerned her electrolytes were low from throwing up so much. So an hour and $212.00 later we were out of the vets office and on our way home. Sydnee is finally back to her sassy self, and all the swelling is gone! My poor baby!

Tick-Tock-Tick-Tock

When did the days at work get so stinking long. I have a zero attention span today -- resulting in the longest day EVER!!!!! Will it ever end??

Funniest "Person" I know

Okay so my dog is seriously the funniest person I know -- She is such a sassy little brat! Everyday when I get home from work she is so excited to see me. She will take me to the couch and get me to lay down so she can cuddle with me. She will lay on her back across my chest and snuggle up, making me rub her tummy. So yesterday I decided I would take a picture of this. Well my little one has a 6th sense about cameras -- she will try and move when ever she she knows it will be a cute picture. Yesterday was the exception, I was going to take a picture of me kissing her on the cheek as she cuddled, but instead she open her mouth to yawn, so I hurry and snapped it. I thought it was kind of a funny one :) So here it is!

Munchkin Feet

Last night was America Next Top Model night, Becky made Pot Stickers, Fried Rice, Fruit Salad and Fiesta Dip -- kind of random but so delicious! This week we added a little variation to our tradition, and watched The Bachelor as well! We had such a great time! Thank you Becky for being such a great host week after week!

Now on to the munchkin feet -- poor Becky is starting to swell. She only has about 3 or 4 weeks left in her pregnancy, but you can tell she is getting to the miserable part! So last night I gave her a mini pedicure! We trimmed her toe nails, gave her a massage and painted them red. So now when her feet are in the stir ups her toes will look beautiful! :) Here is a picture of her cute swollen feet!

My Boys

On Monday night I had the pleasure of seeing my favorite 3 boys in the whole world! Billy was in town from Phoenix, and Parker and Andy came out of hiding! We all got together at the Sky Box to have a little dinner and watch the Jazz game. I love these boys more then anything! (Please ignore my bit of a sunburn from skiing on Sunday)

Deer Valley

Okay let me just start by saying that I had an amazing weekend! Well mainly an amazing Friday and Sunday. Friday I was able to go up to Basin for the day, it was my favorite ski day ever! The snow was just amazing in the morning, it was like skiing on velvet -- heaven. I honestly didn't ever want it to end.

So a couple weeks ago my wonderful friend Andy asked me if I would like two Deer Valley comp tickets. So yesterday Coop and I went down and skied, it was such a pretty day, and I have the sunburn to prove it. I was having so much fun that I actually forgot to take pictures!

Upgrades

Over the past week I decided it was time to upgrade my sleeping conditions. First I went out and bought a memory foam topper for my bed and new memory foam pillows, this was a very good investment! I have been sleeping a whole lot better, well until last night. Over the weekend I also decided to buy a new comforter for my bed. I have had the same one for the past 5 years, so I think it was time for an upgrade! Well this also means I got new sheets! I HATE new sheets, they are scratchy. I feel like you have to wash them 10 times before they feel "good". So I tossed and turned until 1 am trying to just forget about my sheets, finally I ended up falling asleep, but I think when I get home the sheets are going through a couple wash cycles before bed tonight! Anyways I love my new comforter, it is a little "elegant" but I like it!

Friday

-- Just in case you were wondering, skiing on Friday was fabulous --

What Lies Ahead --

This is what I have to look forward to today -- a beautiful day of spring skiing!!! By the way, these are current as of 9:10am photos of the mountain for today!!!

So You Wanna be on Top??

Last night we had our weekly ANTM Night! Becky made fiesta dip -- I think I ate half of it! So delicious! We also had hamburgers and homemade fries. Such a good time with the best of company! I took a picture of baby Ry Ry, so freaking cute! He is getting HUGE! I am so excited for him to come! Baby Ry RY had an accident and spilled on himself!

This is Hurley, Becky's dog -- he likes to snuggle during top model!

Becky and I eating mint lifesavers, our breath was not smelling so great after fiesta dip!

And last but not least, Becky and I decided to take some time out to pose with Tyra and the other Top Model girls -- we fit right in!
