BB

My beautiful car BB (Black Beauty) has been given a makeover! Tragically last summer she was involved in an accident while in reverse. Her passenger side rump came into contact with the City/State industrial sized white garbage dumpsters as my Dad was moving her out of my Mom's way. He was so sweet to not only come tell me right away but to get the tire & rim replaced the very same day. Since then it's been a long process with the Insurance company, in-between then and now she also lost her hub cap while on an adventure with Jaron to find Salt Lake from Heber, amazing husband Jer just bought me a replacement and I will get a picture of it on here as soon as I get the part shipped to me from Ebay. I just have to say that I am so very grateful that the two most important men in my life take care of me so well!!! Love you both so much =)
Before and After...

Drage Family Game Night

For Christmas my parents came up with the great gift idea of giving good old fashioned board games to all the children and then having them commit to hosting a Game Night. It has been so much fun each month and brought us all closer now days because this is what we use to do when we were kids. The picture above is April Game Night hosted by Mandy Sue Read and family. Her homemade food is ALWAYS delicious and they have a very cherished horse shoe pit. We played Battle of the Sexes and Apples to Apples Jr, SO fun, the girls won the first game and the Jr version is great when you don't want to think too hard. Hope to see more of you next month dear family!!!

6 Month Anniversary!!!

April 3rd was our big day of 6 Month Anniversary!!! =) For the first time Jaron remembered first, not I and he was sure not to let me forget it. Every month he always tries to get us to eat the top of our cake but I have to remind him that we are saving it for the traditional 1 year anniversary no matter how bad it may taste. In thinking about the past six months I've realized that life is so much better when you have someone to share it with. When growing, learning and progressing is done with someone by your side its a little scary for fear of judgments but ultimately brings you both greater joy. Though the lifestyle change, mindset adjustments and learning how to put someone else first have been/are/will be hard just getting to be in your loving arms at the end of the day makes it all worth it. I love you Jaron Bath and pray to become the woman you need me to be. Thank you for your patience, understanding and humor for I need you so much for every quality you hold completes me. I could not have been given/chose a more perfect Eternal Companion! <3 xOXo   

Easter Weekend

Our Easter started off with a fun BBQ/Egg Dying Party at my sister Mandy's house. The kids were hilarious to watch and here is what Debera and I created...

The Easter Hill got moved to April 10th so we will probably be throwing rotten eggs =D

General Conference was on so we got to be spiritually fed as well as catch up on some sleep, sewing oh and Banana Pancakes were consumed as well.

Sunday morning we woke up to see that the Easter Bunny had visited. Jaron followed the path of eggs that lead to his discovery of our basket!!!

I am so grateful that I have a loving husband that will play along just to make me feel good!

Week of Shows

My delightful Auntie invited me to go see Legally Blond The Musical with her and I couldn't resist the chance to spend time with her. We went to a delicious dinner at Red Rock where I had my most favorite salad ever and tried her new to my taste buds Eggplant Parmesan that I surprisingly liked, all the while chatting up a storm. The first act left us feeling goofy because of the OMG song stuck in our heads. So much so that I decided to leave my balcony lobby view, travel downstairs all to pick a quarter up off the floor. Then I realized I had a pencil skirt on wrong so I tucked my shirt into it as Debera covered me while hiding in the mirrored corner. Ya that's how smart we are. We finished the second act and decide that is was a greatly funny play that we enjoyed very much. Thank you SO much Debera can't wait to hang out with you next, remember we are taking your Christmas lights down together while updating your itunes, and I'll be practicing for Lion King. 

Finally the night I have been waiting for, MICHAEL BUBLE live!!! Ahhhh, the man has a voice of  power that sends shock waves crashing through me to my very soul. Marla, Jillian and I consumed a lovely dinner at Red Robin before the show for we knew we would need our energy for it's magnificentness. Traffic was "terrible Doug" so Marla guided us to a better entrance then we inevitably had to pay the grueling $10 for parking. We found our seats, watched an amazing opening act of Naturally 7 then the highlight of the night began.We got to see Michael through the binoculars, Marla so brilliantly brought, while listening to his spectacular voice and it was just such a completing moment. We all sang along, danced it out and forgot to bring our cameras but the memories will last forever. The next day I read a review from the Salt Lake Tribune that I spat upon for their lack of talent seeing eyes. Thank you Jillian for such a perfect Christmas gift.

Snowboarding!

So one day I was asked by my beloved sister Jillian Bath if I would go snowboarding with her. Despite my inner hatred for the sport, due to a terrifying first experience of feeling like I was going to DIE because I was going straight down the mountain nose first having no idea how to stop before I hit the building, no one to help me and finally I just threw myself  onto the ground which then bruised me so bad that I slept in the same position for three days, I said yes. We took a couple Fridays off work, spent $25 for rentals, lessons and bounce back privileges that contain the same deal while increasing the lessons. We both overcame our fears, meet awesome instructors and have a taste that will keep us coming back for more next season. Thank you Jillian and can't wait to see you in the 2014 Half-Pipe Olympic Games.
