15 Seconds of Fame

The video speaks for itself, but here's how it all happened.

Last night, our neighbor came over and knocked on our door, yelling my name. He had us come out and look up in the sky. He really just wanted to make sure he wasn't just seeing a whole bunch of spots in the air. I was hesitant to tell him I saw the floating fireballs, just to confirm his suspicion that he was indeed crazy, but I didn't. This is what we saw ...

Hundreds of UFO's streaked across the night air, wreaking havoc on the local fauna. It was estimated that at least one person suffered from a severe heart attack, due to the shock that somebody would light fireballs, and then released them into the air, in the middle of a rain shortage.

The lights came floating over our heads for 20 minutes or so, maybe 1,500 feet up in the air, going wherever the wind decided to carry them. We had no clue what these things were ... until one of them caromed in between our town home complex, right in front of me, and landed, still aflame, in our neighbor's tree. Apparently these were special lanterns that were lit off at a pre-wedding for none other than Jimmer Fredette. What a great time of year to set these suckers off ... right in the middle of a drought.

These are supposedly frame retardant. If that's the case here, then I would hate to see what would flame resistant be ... you be the judge.

Anyway, we got it from our neighbor, took some pictures, and then sent them off to the local news station. Within a minute of our email, 9 News called us up to speak with Gwen. Two minutes after that phone call, another one promptly followed, this one asking if they could come over and interview he in a half hour!!! Of course we said yes. When the news man finally arrived, the interview lasted about 5 minutes.

It was great fun, and Gwen even got to be on the 5 O'clock news today. If anybody want this "party lantern," I'd be happy to sell it to you ... for an outrageous price of course!

It looks like the city of Centennial got Jimmered last night. Luckily, no fires were started.

Dressing Your Truth

There are not many people in this world I would be excited to see that fall in the realm of "famous", but on Thursday I got to chat on Vokle with Carol Tuttle the creator of Dressing Your Truth Energy Profiling. She also used me for the cover picture that went out to all of the members of DYT across the world, approximately 7000 people. I can only show you the picture b/c you have to join to watch all her wonderful information.


                    
This for me was truly an honor. Carol has been such a help to me in understanding my family and their specific needs true to their energy type. I love the Dressing Your Truth program!!!!!  If you want to learn more about this program here is the link : Dressing Your Truth

Summer is Here

Ok I know its not summer but it felt hot enough. Yesterday the sprinkler repair man came to find the leaks. The man approached us and said he was sorry but he had to turn them on to fix them and I said don't be sorry you just made three little peoples day.Just in time too as the girls were dying from the heat.

It was on long enough to get all of them soaked. By the end I'm not sure whos day it made more the girls for the fun or the repair man. He was so excited to see someone enjoying what he had to do.

What do you Enjoy about Dinner?

How do you make dinner fun?

We love the random moments!

The Process of Blonde

Here is the progress so far in going blonde! I will do it again in a couple weeks and that should finish getting all of it to the platinum blonde I wanted. Funny story; our neighbors Aunt is from Russia and can only say in English: princess, hello and  "Marilyn Monroe! Marilyn Monroe! Marilyn Monroe!"

Beef it's Whats for Dinner

Randall was looking  at some new books our neighbor gave us. He stopped on a page with a man riding a bull and asked Emma "What do you see?". She studied the picture and said "a man and uh..".( It was a rough sketching , little hard to tell what it was.)  Randall decided to help her out, "Do you know what  a boy cow is called?" Maddy standing behind Emma nodded yes. So Randall repeated the question to Maddy and she replied " MEAT!"

Temple Marriage

Today at dinner we were talking about what we learned/taught in class today. I taught the Young Women about Temple marriage, and so Randall and I asked the girls what temple they would like to get married in.

Survey says:

Emma- Denver Colorado "b/c thats the one you go to everyday(really its every week, but everyday would be awesome). And its cute and good and nice, and people where everybody goes to get married."



Maddy- Bountiful Utah b/c "I want to go the temple that Uncle Sean and Aunty Lauren got married in."


 Lana- Portland Oregano b/c "I want to go to the one you got married in mommy and daddy!"

As for me I would like to go to the Laie Hawaii Temple. It has been a life long dream. Heightened when my Grandpa had shown me a picture of it from when he served at Pearl Harbor. He took a picture b/c it was a beautiful building but had no idea what it was for. Some day we will go, so perhaps for an anniversary.
 
Randall would like to go to Mount Timpanogos, Utah just b/c.
