Weekend in Detroit? What the.......

Now I know you are all wondering, why in the world, would I go to Detroit. Trust me if I was going to go all the way there, it had better be good. Indeed it was! I went with my dad, 2 of my brothers, and my sister, to sit front row, at 2 baseball games, to see the N Y Yankees play the Tigers. We are the world's biggest Yankee fans. (We even put an NY on our roof in Christmas lights during Christmas) It's so weird because I feel like we are like best friends with the players, and to only give me a head nod, well that really hurt my feelings!

My sister got her ball autographed while I tried to take pictures. We pretty much risked our lives. The players come over, and everyone swarms like ants on a cookie. So you have to be pretty aggressive! This is Bobby Abreu the right fielder. They are so big in real life. At this moment people are knocking me around. I kept taking pictures of some one's head cause I was getting pushed so bad.

These are where our seats were. They were so sweet!

Jeter! All I wanted was a hug. Just one hug is that too much to ask? I mean come on!!

Alright so the Yankees ended up losing, but they won the next day!! Then Sat night we went to the Red wings hockey game against the Dallas Stars. We also got 2nd row seats, and they are in the play offs! I now love hockey so much!! It was a great weekend!!

Best Vacation Ever!!

Well today was the first day back to work after being in Paradise for a week. We had so much fun! It was so hard to leave to come home and to try to force ourselves out of bed this morning! Here are some pic's of all the fun!! Warning There are tons of picture especially close ups!!
Day 1- 5:00 am flight to Puerto Rico! Notice our then pasty white faces!Walking up to the top deck to see the boat take off! Out of no where, it started raining so hard!

Day 2- Every morning we would all meet for breakfast, and plan out our day, this day we were in St. Thomas, and we went to Koci beach and snorkeled, played cricket (notice Travis's bat in the picture which got confiscated when we came back on the cruise boat because they said it could be used as a weapon), we also played Frisbee, ate at this great beach side grill named Mailman's.





Playing cricket! It was so fun and everyone was watching us. We don't know if it's because they enjoyed watching, of if they were in fear of looking away because we might hit them with the ball!

They have these awesome cases you can put your camera in to make it water proof. Only $20!! They work great!
Every night we had a fancy dinner! yum yum!
Waiting for the entertainment to start! We were never bored!
Day3- Dominica, was very rain forest like, we found the most awesome guide/taxi driver named Shy Guy. I wanted to bring him home and have him be my best friend. Total rasta.
So beautiful!

Then we swam threw these caves to get to this other waterfall. It's the same one Johnny Depp swam through in Pirate of the Caribbean. It was to cool.



Formal Night! We saw some pretty sweet get up there! Remember Saved by the bell? Puffy sleeves? Yeah.
Day 4- Barbados! We rented scooters and cruised to Silver sands beach. Some went body surfing, and some layed out!
The beaches were like a dream. This picture is almost perfect. Travis's hair ruins it! J/K (but seriously)
They drive on the opposite side of the road. With the combination of that, and Travis driving, we almost got hit a few times.

Day 5- St. Lucia, Boat tour!
This was a bat cave! You could hear and see bats!

Playing soccer with the locals.

Day 6-Antigua! 365 beautiful beaches. A beach for everyday of the year. They were by far the most beautiful. We went to one called Long Bay. The sand was soooo soft. There was a huge reef to snorkel on. There were all these cute shops, and a asked one lady how much this cute dress was, and she started talking Spanish to me, so i said, "In English?" she said, "oh I thought you were Spanish!" I smiled so hard! It was the best part of the trip!!!

I love this picture! It makes me laugh every time!

The 2nd formal night.... The night Brett got freaky and down! One of the hi-lites of the whole trip!
Day 7 St. Kitts-We took a tour around the whole island and took stops at these really pretty places. So Travis found his shirt and the little shops, and loved it soo much he wore it for 2 days straight! So if you see him be sure to tell him it rocks!

Last day in Puerto Rico!



Flying kites in PR. Well I think we are officially hooked to cruises. They are the best and we highly recommend them to everyone!

What! No More School???

So I did it. I finally graduated from college. Next stop the Caribbean for 7 days of pure enjoyment and relaxation. We'll add more to this post with the specifics of the graduation and party. Plus stay tuned for post cruise pics.

We Have Big News! And There's No Turning Back!

That's right! We are going on a cruise! I'm not pregnant, so don't ever ask! Travis will be graduation in 2 weeks, and he just so happened to serve his mission in the West Indies, which is the Caribbean Islands! So we decided to plan it and go visit and celebrate at the same time! We are so excited. I don't mean to brag, but I kind of do! If you have any advice let us know! As for Lindy, now is the time to go to war, and see who wins! Come and Join us! April 27th!

Happy & Warm Easter!!

We spent the weekend in St. George and we could feel ourselves coming out of a depression that we didn't realize we were suffering from! We went down for Travis's little brother's baseball tournament. We went Biking, swimming, played tennis, played Rock Band, and ate tons of great food!

With our friends Brett and Brittany and the ball park.

On the Paradise Rim trail. We got the worse case of brub!!! If you don't know what that is, go ride a bumpy trail all day, and try to ride the next day!

Travis on the Bear Claw trail at just the perfect time of day for some cool pictures!



Sunday we went to Snow Canyon and hiked all around and had an Easter egg hunt and a great BBQ!

Five Random Things About Me

1. I've always wanted to be in an all girl band. I'm all about girl power, and I've always wanted to be able to rock out with all chicks!! So I also wish I could sing!

2. I have a hard time focusing when I'm reading books. I'll read a part and it will make me think of something else and before you know it I've solved the book in my own way in my head, and I have to go back like 3 pages because I will all of the sudden realize I have no idea what the heck I just read! I'm a big day dreamer!!

3. I used to be so embarrassed by my feet. I used to be jealous of girls with cute feet and hated taking off my shoes and socks and would try to avoid it as much as possible. I would even sit on them and try to hide them, and I always wondered what certain people's feet looked like. Like I would judge if they were cute or not by their feet. (I'm laughing so hard because this sounds so stupid right now.) But I love my feet now!

4. When I was little, I had the worst temper and my nick name was Psycho Sid after this WWF wrestler! I would freak out and my mom would order my brothers to take me to my room and I would latch onto the door frame and they couldn't pry me. My mom was so thankful that I mellowed out before I was a teenager!

5. I'm scared to be a mom and have kids. I'm afraid they'll die or be rotten like me (or even worse, like Travis) or that they will be made fun of or not cute.

There you have it! I tag Stefanie!!
