Ciralight Xmas Party!!

Ciralight held their annual Christmas party (2nd one since I've been onboard) and it was a blast. Jacque talked me into bringing my keyboard and maybe playing a tune or two... With the help of her sister Diana Lee, Rex, Earl and Jacque too we had fun singing back and forth and the crowd was very supportive :)

We sang a few christmas songs like, Santa Baby, The Christmas Song, Jingle Bell Rock, I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus, and I even attempted to belt out Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas, with the help of Rex.

Earl and Julie hosted the party and they have an absolutely beautiful house. We appreciate their hospitality.

Matt and I practiced a little christmas ditty but didn't get the chance to show it off. So we'll save that for the Xmas CD this year. :)

Tubing in Park City

The joke is that I don't ski because my body doesn't like being thrown down hills at high velocities, therefor... I TUBE.

Michelle and I took the kids to the local Gorgoza Tubing Park for a couple hours on Sunday. And we had a blast. This is a much slower pace resort with lifts that drag you and your tube up the hill. At the top, you can fly solo or lash all your buddies tubes together and go flying down as one big screaming mass of flesh. :)

If you've never been... do it...

Winter in Utah

Well after being here for almost a year, I knew Park City gets a lot of snow. This past weekend proves it.

2.5 FEET!!

Spent the weekend shoveling the driveway a number of times. Might be time to breakdown and get a snow blower for sure. It's not even winter yet. The ski resorts are in full swing all around the area with all the snow.

We're planning on visiting the Tubing Park just down the road and spend a couple hours sliding down the hills without breaking any bones. :)

The day has finally come. The whole family is joining me in Utah. Michelle has retired from the Army after 20 years and we decided to move the whole family out west.

So we loaded up the rest of our belongings in a 26' Uhaul, put the Mustang on a trailer and drove the 2200 miles west to Park City, UT.

A proud moment for sure. After years of momma dragging Matthew to karate, it finally pays off when he is awarded his Black Belt. In the photo he is shaking hands with Sensei Sr. Now that he's in Utah, we need to find him a location that practices his style of karate... Tang So Do.

We're all proud of him. Congratulations Matthew!!
