TRANSFORMERS

Any boy that grew up in the eighties loved the Transformers. I remember watching that show growing up and even one year had an Optimus Prime Birthday cake. I use to watch Transformers with this Kid named Spenny Morris and it just so happens we were mission companions and now work together. When we heard that Transformers was coming out in the theaters, we were so excited and were there for opening night. Jackie and I went and saw it in the movie theaters three times. It is also one of her all-time favorite movies!!!!! So I won a gift card to Amazon.com so I thought what better way to spend it than to buy Transformers, and even better it is already here even before it comes out in the stores. Needless to say I am really excited. AUTOBOTS ROLL OUT!!!!!!!!

Cirque Du Soleil

So on Friday night we went on a double date to Cirque Du Soleil. It was playing at the Great Western Forum in Los Angeles. I didn't really know what to expect other than it would be a lot of acrobatic performances. We first got there and I was surprised that it was going to be outside in a big circus tent. Jackie and I had done some research before going and read about how Cirque Du Soleil started and the version we were going to was called Corteo. It was about a clown that was having a dream about his funeral and this funeral was taking place at a Carnival. So the whole story was very random. From scene to scene it was totally different things. It had a scene of bunch of performers jumping on beds, and a scene of three guys rolling around in hoops, and then it was a tight rope walker, and then next a hoop spinning lady, plus a golfing scene, followed by more acrobatics on trampolines and ropes. A "small person" attached to balloons that floated around the audience, and then all of a sudden it just ended after more acrobatics this time on bars. It was very interesting but also probably the weirdest show I have ever seen. Jackie thought it was really cool and we had a really good time. Spent the rest of the weekend relaxing and watching conference. It was nice to be able to watch conference from our apartment and Tyler's place this time. Jackie and I tried to make a movie this weekend on our computer and so we were looking at our wedding pictures. So I thought I would add this picture of us doing acrobatics at our wedding. This picture makes me laugh.

Girls Weekend!

Every year all the girls on my Dad's side get together for a weekend in Tuacahn. We see a play, shop, eat lots of food, talk and just hang out. It is so much fun. I look forward to it every year, there is about 20-25 of us that go. This year we went and saw Cinderella. It was so cute. It was so much fun to see everyone. I don't get to see anyone that often since I live so far away. I drove to Vegas Thursday night and then drove with Jodi and Auntie Norma Jean Friday morning. We ate dinner at Tuacahn before the play. Then on Saturday we went shopping at the factory stores, then we all went to the Olive Garden for dinner. We left Sunday morning to Vegas, then I hopped in my car and drove back to Cali. The top picture is of Auntie LaVada, Jamie, Auntie Norma Jean, Launie, LaRae, Misty, Me, Jodi and Kristy. The middle one is of Ashli Johnson, Baby Wyatt Johnson, Baby Wyatt Taylor and Becky Taylor. The bottom one is my cousin Jamie, Me, and my sister Jodi. I love my fam and am so glad that we can get together like this every year and have so much fun!

BYU Football Weekend

So I talked some of the Johnson Family into visiting us so they could see BYU play UCLA at the Rose Bowl Stadium. So Terry, Tim, Kyle from Utah, Doug, Payden, and Brock from Vegas came. We spent Friday evening at the beach and the kids had a blast. Went to a great Mexican place for dinner, and hit up the late show of Transformers. Sweet movie by the way if you haven't seen it. Saturday the boys went back to the beach with Doug and the rest of us went shopping at the mall and an antique shop. We then left for the big game, made just in time thanks to Doug's very safe and courteous driving. The game was fun and BYU made a late push but didn't quite win. We had a great time and were really glad everyone came to visit. Hope everyone else can come sometime soon.

Quick Utah Trip

We made a quick Trip to Utah, left Friday after work and got to Utah at 3 am Saturday. Saturday we just chilled. Tyler drove with us, he had a wedding to go to. We were able to see Spencer, Criscell, Ryan, Amber, Spenny and Nellie. Of course we went to Cafe Rio. On Sunday we had Cohen's Baby Blessing and it was really nice. It was really fun to see everyone even if it was a quick trip.

Natalie Homer's Wedding

I went to a Natalie's Homer's wedding on August 17. She was married to Bretton Wall. It was so much fun seeing friends that I haven't seen since high school. I was able to see some of my guy friends that went on missions and are home now. It was a lot of fun. My mom was in Vegas babysitting grandkids, so I got to spend the weekend with me Daddy! We went to breakfast and watched High School Musical 2 two times! He just loved it. Timmy and Ashli came to my parents house Saturday night. I was able to see my cute new nephew. He is so big now. It is crazy how big he has grown since the last time I saw him. It was fun spending the weekend with fam and friends.
