Reno
For JD's dad's Appreciation Dinner for NTA, we went to Reno for the weekend and had a fabulous time with the Santini clan.
We went to Virginia City where JD's great uncle is buried. He wrote The Oxbow Incident and lived right in Virginia City. This is outside of the Bucket o Blood Saloon.
And this is inside the Bucket of Blood Saloon!
Here are some of the nieces and nephews with country folk there.
JD had to get a picture in front of the sign since he's officially a James Santini too.

Dad Santini during his acceptance speech which was so heart felt and straight off the cuff.

Then we headed to Lake Tahoe- a beautiful day!
I couldn't resist getting this picture at the NTA convention floor. Each state was represented trying to attract business to their tour opportunities.
The second coolest part of the convention was the free Skagen watch we got through the Santini connections. I'm totally enjoying it!
Here we are at the hotel- these chairs are HUGE!
Praise to the Man
I am so grateful for the prophet Joseph Smith- for his life and his mission to bring the Gospel of Jesus Christ back to the earth once more. I know the Savior, Jesus Christ, better because of Joseph Smith. Praise to the man!

Paige and I
Last weekend the lil' sis came for a visit! We played ourselves silly. Shopping was the first item of business. Check out the jeans we found- I think they are well named!
My intelligent look.
After a happy day of shopping.
Evidence of the happy day of shopping!
Another thing we tried our hand at was making flower clips.
Crafting action shot
The end result
Off to the mall!

Love you, girl!
San Diego
JD and I got the crazy idea late one night to go to the BYU/San Diego State football game a couple of weeks ago. Glad we went!
We started our adventure doing a session at the temple. I've never been inside before- it's always fun to go to new temples. After our session we were asked to participate in a sealing session where a man in his 60s sealed his parents and grandparents. It was a sweet experience for him and a highlight for us to be a part of his special day.
We then went to La Jolla Cove. Yes- that's me inside the cove before we were yelled at over the loud speaker. I was wondering why no one was inside. I guess I missed the sign forbidding it!
A salad the size of my head.
The big game- we enjoyed a BYU Alumni tailgate party.
Rise and shout, the cougars are out!
This is how cougars warm up!
The other lens ended up falling over the edge and onto the field.
Here we go cougars, here we go!!
Cougs leaving a the stadium after a good game.
JD in heaven- we had a blast!
