Australia at last!

It's been.....who knows how long since an update. Too long. I've made it to Australia. It's just as beautiful as it's talked up to be. Actually...better! I love love LOVE it here already. These pics are just from last Saturday night. Went out with these two girls I've met, and had a blast! Will post more pictures later. But, I'm blogged out for the night. This update continues pic wise, so keep clicking "older post" to see all the fun stuff. I forgot what it was like to have so much free time, to blog! Free time meaning, I only work from 7am-6pm now, instead of the 5am-11pm. Sometimes, I'm just not sure what to do with the time. As I'm meeting more and more friends, I don't think I have anything to worry about. Miss you all!

PS- Proud Aunt shout out. I have a new nephew as of 6/22/09 and a new niece as of 7/10/09. That makes for 15 nieces and nephews! Miss and love them all!

Cake Making

I've always wanted to take cake decorating classes, and start doing cakes. I made my nieces huge Cup Cake cake for her first birthday, and decided I'd take up my own on my birthday. ( For those that don't know, I have a shoe obbsession, and limegreen and pink are my favorite colors!) My little nephew Lincoln decided to help as well....

Happy 60th Birthday, Dad!

California was a blast. While there I, along with help from the siblings threw my dad a 60th surprise Birthday Party. It was a lot of fun. My Uncle and one of my cousins from Alaska flew in for it. My Aunt and 2 of my cousins from San Fran. came down for it. All my siblings from Utah, CA, had come out for it. Defenitley missed my brother from AZ, as his wife was due with their 2nd baby ANY DAY! The pictures below are a mixture from my dad's surprise party, and just family in general. Also, our "June Birthdays" family party. June is a popular month for us : June 1 is my niece Lauren's Birthdy. June 19th is my brothers, June 22 is my dad's and my nephews AND my new nephews! June 23rd is mine. It made for a fun time. And one last Happy Birthday to Dad!

Family and Dad's 60th

Cousins!

It had been about five or more years, since I had seen any of my cousins. A few of them were down for my Dad's party, and I was able to see my other cousin in SF before leaving for Australia. It was so much fun. I miss them lots and love them tons!

Arizona June 2009

So, on my way home to Cali, I made a stop in AZ. To see my best friends there, Nikki and Heather. And also of course, I stayed with my little Peyton and brother and sister in law. It was a lot of fun to see them. When I was there, I was hopping for another nephew. No such luck, but about 4 days later, Peyton became a big sister! While there, I got treated to Peyton's beauty Salon. Also, to find myself in a water war with her. But not nearly as much as her Grandma Bryce did! We also went on a night Rhino(4wheeler type thing) ride, and then went looking for "Scorpins" with a blacklight so her daddy could kill them! Luckily, they were all in the back ally, none at the house! I love that little girl to pieces, and miss he more than anyone knows! Talk about guilt trip: "Kimmy, why you going to Australia, don't you just want to stay in "fatcher" (Thatcher) with me? " Awwwww.
