{Stadium of Fire...with Carrie}

Carrie Underwood is one of my all time favorite singers. When I heard she would be performing at this year's Stadium of Fire, we promptly bought tickets. Stadium of Fire is such a great event. I had only been once, seven years ago, and forgot what fun it is.

Ms. Underwood. She is a fantastic performer. (Yes. I sang along.) I can't wait to go to one of her "real" concerts.

Enjoyed a be-a-u-tiful sunset.

And finally. The fireworks.

{Utah Arts Festival}

We went to the Utah Arts Festival, toward the end of June, with these two yahoos. (Kidding. Love my big brother and sister-in-law.) We saw lots of incredible art, ran into a few friends and chowed down on yummy (i.e. fattening) food. We had a great time.


We decided to be uuuuuuber cheesy and have our caricature drawn. Don't really think it looks like me. The artist did, however, get the correct color of my eyes; green. (Most people think they're blue.) She did a great job recreating husband.

Posing with the final product.

My cousin, John, is in a band and performed at the festival. We found a spot on the grass and listened to a few songs. Didn't get a picture with him, though. Maybe next time.

What a perfect summer night.

{Catalina Island}

We went to Catalina Island for a mini honeymoon, a few days after the wedding. We wandered around Avalon, ate at darling restaurants, went on paddle boats, swam in the ocean and read on the beach. We had a blast!

A tasty treat at Coney Island West. Yum! Love me a good chili dog.

Had to cake on the sunscreen before going on the paddle boats. The husband burns easily.

All the locals drive golf carts. We thought ours was pretty cool...until we saw this lady's ride. Love the gold rims and hood ornament. Snazzy. I bet her favorite singer is Wayne Newton.

Still can't believe we're married!

I'm a tad behind on the blog. There's lots to report! We've been to Hawaii, bought a house and have an 8 week old puppy named, Penny. More updates soon!
