Hotel-icopter?
I've always wanted to ride in a helicopter, especially one where it has eighteen rooms, each equipped with a queen-size bed, minibar and coffeemaker, WiFi, flat-screen TV, and cell reception. And you can order room service.
Need to work? There’s a business center. Want to workout? Hit the gym. You can sit in the whirlpool or sauna, get a massage or tan, do yoga, or just contemplate the wonder of it all in the Japanese garden with koi pond.
The inaugural fourteen-day trip leaves JFK on June 26, with stops in the Bahamas, Jamaica, and the Dominican Republic.
And unlike on that Airbus A320, you can park the airplane in the hangar.
Without worrying about a crash landing.

Leggings still in fashion!
So it took me a long time to get into the whole legging trend back in 2000 whenever. Now leggings are still in, but now with patterns and decorations.
One trend I hope will soon fade are the Tapered Trousers AKA Hammer Pants.. please oh please!!

VIP status!
This past weekend Brad and I drove out to Palm Springs to meet up with one of his college friends, and his parents. We went to the Tennis Tournament out there which is right next to Brad's parents house in Indian Wells. We got total VIP status, we got to borrow his dads Mercedes, got Valet Parking, and even got to sit in a box! It was scorching hot, and Andy Roddick didn't play so well.. but all in all it was an amazing weekend!

Things I'm Currently Obsessed with..
*Pictures with balloons. I have always loved balloons, you always see then when there is a celebration of some sort, wedding, birthday, congratulations.. they are always a happy, colorful indicator.
*Twilight.. I have gotten a late start, but I'm on book 4 and I can't get enough of it! The movie comes out this weekend on DVD EEEK!
*Family, my mom is in town for 3 weeks.. its so nice having her here, she still has not had time to make her yummy pancakes yet! My new nephew, he is adorable, and I will miss him when they move!
*Rascal Flatts new song.. "Here comes Goodbye"
"We Still Remember"
In Memory of those who lost their lives in the USU crash victims.
"A tiny question mark on a shaft of wheat, initials on a saddle, a farmer's brand stamped in the dirt, shadows of grease under the fingernails of a hard worker, a wedding ring, a Band-Aid, jersey No. 17, a team of horses and a prize hog were the finishing touches that gave the 20-foot-long memorial individual significance.
Each item, carefully sculpted into the intricate design of one of nine bronze panels, represents each man who lost his life when a van carrying eight Utah State University students and their instructor left the roadway and rolled down an embankment north of Brigham City on Sept. 26, 2005."

I still remember it like it was yesturday.. I had just gotten to work early on Sept 25th, my mom called me with a different sound to her voice. She had asked if there someone else with me at work yet. She wanted to be sure that someone was close by so they could give me a hug. No one was there yet, but she started to cry.. immediately I could tell something was horribly wrong. She said there was an accident and that someone very dear to me was in it. I asked her who it was, and it was my close high school friend Justin Huggins. I immediately went home as my mom finished telling me that there were eleven others in the crash. I only recognized the name of two of them, but it hit me so hard. I started receiving phone calls from all my close friends, Brooke Richards and Jenn Scott. I felt so alone being so far away and not having anyone around me know what I was going through. I had talked it over with my parents in deciding if it was important for me to come home. I wanted to be sure that I was able to say goodbye and be there to comfort everyone.. and also be comforted. I was so grateful I was able to go home and attend his special funeral. It was everything he would have wanted. All his friends/teammates were the pallbearers and wore their baseball uniforms. It was so detailed and perfect, just like Justin was.
Now his mom has made a blog about memories of his, I love reading it everyday and remembering this special person that will never be forgotten.
