4th of July

This year we were among the 'lucky' ones and got to go to the Stadium of Fire. MonaVie (Jim's company) was the sponsor so we got matching t-shirts (designed by Jim and his team). We got to have dinner at the Harmon Building pavillion before the show, got good parking (right outside the stadium) and got loge (box) seats. Ally was so excited to see Hannah Montana, even though she really doesn't know who she is other than seeing her on t-shirts, merchandise, etc. We enjoyed the good food and company of good friends, it's fun having the majority of the old NuSkin team working with Jim again at MonaVie. The kids enjoyed attacking people....

Thanks for being the jungle gym, Ryan.


The kids even enjoyed the Stadium of Fire.

Andrew's favorite was the Blue Man Group. Ally enjoyed singing along with Miley Cyrus (coming up with her own words). She even had her 'microwave' (microphone) - her hand in a fist. We just laughed at her walking around singing and dancing. And, the best part of it all, the fireworks. Ally even enjoyed them and didn't scream the entire time like she did the year before.

It was a very nice night. Thanks to MonaVie for the enjoyable time. I am grateful we have the freedoms we have to enjoy such a celebration. I am so grateful for those who have fought and continue to fight so we can live in this wonderful country. We are so blessed.

Candace,

It seems like it has been forever!! It's funny who you can find via blog. Oh, this is Jenni Coberly by the way. :) Anyway, I can't believe your kids are so big! Time sure does fly. It doesn't seem like it's been 11 years since we worked together at UVSC. Scary!! We don't live in Utah anymore. We moved to Colorado and LOVE it!! Let me know how things are with you and your cute little family. I will check back from time to time.

Jenni:

I was so great to hear from you. And yes, it does seem like it's been forever. How are things going for you and your family? What are you up to, besides living in Colorado? I think of you every time I drive past your mom's house. Keep in touch! And you definately need to call me next time you are in town.
