Best Friends

My mom and I bought this shirt that I am wearing. We thought it would be really funny. I wore it on the last day of our family reunion. My whole extended family thought it was funny because it is me and that is a Nyree thing to do. We then went down to Provo. My mom, dad and I went out shopping and I guess I had a lot of girls staring at me. I was oblivious but my dad was not. He said the boys just shrugged it off. Well later that night my best friend Lena Starr (Johnson) came to visit and we took a picture. It was then I realized how funny I looked. Now it really proves she is my best friend for life. Who else would take a picture with me sporting this A Wesome shirt.

Virginia Snow

Well the news and weather channels kept telling us that we had a huge snow storm coming and that we should prepare ourselves. Everyone we talked to kept saying the same thing but neither my mom nor I believed them. Then guess what? IT HAPPENED! Our cars were covered with snow.



This is my Dad waving to the camera. We broke out our beanies and big heavy coats so that we could enjoy the snow.


My mom and I were trying to clean the snow off the trampoline. It was really hard but very fun.


The first video is of my mom and I falling into the snow and me making a snow angel. We also tried to have a snowball fight but the snow did not pack. It was just powder snow which did nothing. We had fun attempting to have a snowball fight anyway.


The second video is of me trying to jump on the trampoline and when that didn't work I tried to clean it off. That wasn't working very well either so we quit and came inside. Well as you will soon see jumping on the trampoline wasn't the smartest thing to do. I got snow in all sorts of places. Fun Stuff!

Mylee Ann

Mylee Ann is the newest member of our family. My sister Michelle gave birth to her on 7 October 2009. She weighed 7lbs 1oz and was 19.5 inches long. She is a beautiful baby. More pictures will be coming soon.

IMAX

3-D movies are great but have you ever been to one in the IMAX theatre. The glasses eat your face. Well not really but they are so big in comparison to me and my face that it looks really goofy. Here is a photo of my mom and I sporting our IMAX 3-D glasses.

Il Divo



Il Divo is my favorite operatic group right now. It consists of four men who have the most beautiful voices. Well I found out that they were going to be in the DC area after I got back from University. I called my mom up and had her get us some tickets. Il Divo was the first live concert I have ever been to in my life and it was Amazing.



They sung two of my favorite songs by them which are "Mama" and "Amazing Grace". They also sung to us new songs which was wonderful. My mom and I had a really fun time. We received to Encores at the end which was the best ever. We bought a program as well as matching t-shirts. They are Awesome! I would love to go to another concert by them. It was so much fun.



When we came out of the concert and into the parking lot that was funny because we forgot where we had parked our car. We were in my Dads car so eventually we pushed the panic button to find out where it was located. There were a lot of panic buttons going off that night so we weren't the only ones. Here are a few pics we were able to capture by our cell phones. Not the best quality but it means a lot to me. Also posted is a video so you may here one of their songs. Have a great day.

White Lie

In my spare time with my parents we like to sit down and watch TV. One, it gives us a break from our days activities and two we enjoy spending that time together with each other. Now if any of you have ever watched a movie or a TV show with me you know that I cannot be quiet. Well same with my Mom. Oh I'm sure my Dad absolutely loves our comments. Well we have fun talking to each other none the less. One of the programs we watch is called Lie to Me. This show had a song this time that I thought was A Wesome! So I found it on youtube so that I may post it for those of you who actually read my blog. Hope you enjoy.

Merry Swiftmas

I heard a part of this song on the radio this morning and when I got home from work I had to check it out. It is called Merry Swiftmas. Evan Taubenfeld wrote this song to Taylor Swift and I think it is absolutely Fabulous. I hope you listen and like it as well.
