Cool Aunt Nici and Uncle Ryan

Not having kids (yet!...for all you hopefuls) lets us be "Cool Aunt Nici and Uncle Ryan". We get to take this nieces and nephews and lets them drink what their parents don't let them and eat what their parents don't let them and stay up all hours of the night doing what ever they want and their parents can't say a word about it...because what would they say any ways?..."We will never let you babysit-for-free-over-night again!" I don't have to many crazy sisters who pass up 24 hours of free baby sitting. :) Anyway, this last weekend we took my 2 nieces (Diamon and Raiven) and nephew (Jett) for the night and had a great time. We all stayed up late playing Disney Trivial Pursuit till we were all too tired to care who won and then we all went to bed. But not without a fight of where everyone was going to sleep. Then the next day we all ate at a Hawaiian BBQ place, watched the Disney channel for what seemed like hours, everyone had a ride on the WASP (our scooter), and then we rode TRAX (Trax can be cool if you are a kid and have never rode it before) to the Franklin Covey Field where we watched our wonderful Salt Lake Bee's win their way to a 14-1 record! (They are on fire again this year!) After the game my mom took all the kids home to their parents and we went home as "Cool Aunt Nici and Uncle Ryan"! And EXHAUSTED--Kids wear you out! :)

P.S. We are very excited about the Bee's this year! We are HUGE fans and last year we didn't get to go to any games because we were in AZ. This year we already have our games picked out and can't wait. If anyone wants a fun double date let us know, my dad gets cheap tickets (that's why we are huge fans...it is a cheap summer activity!)
GO BEE'S!

Happy Birthday Yanice and Brit

It was my little sisters birthday last Monday and my moms birthday last Wednesday. On Thursday my family met at TGIFridays and had a birthday celebration.
Funny story... my mom's name is actually Janice but in High School I told my softball team that her name was Yanice and I guess I forgot some of them that it was really Janice and throughout the whole season every time they saw my mom they called her Yanice...and now it has just stuck. So sometimes I call her Janice and sometimes I call her Yanice. I started calling her by her name when I was in High School. One day she asked my why I did that I told her it was because she called me by my name, Nici, and if she called me daughter I would call her mother, so we did for about two days and then just went back to our names...She is one funny lady!
Birthday Girls!

Pictures from the party...

So the next day I went to work and opened my purse...there was a fork and knife wrapped tightly together in a napkin from the restaurant. I have no idea how it got there but I guess I accidentally stole their silverware...oops!
