I love love love these mini ads from anthropologie's website to display its jewelry. So CUTE and yummy.

camping tony's grove

Tony's grove is beyond AMAZING. I mean seriously... just look at that first picture, no need to tell you I had to hike up a very steep rocky mountain in flip flops to get it. :) Where were you tennis shoes?

The outdoor adventures included the following:
Kayaking .. Rafting .. Fishing .. Repelling

We had so much fun with Wayne's family, they are the best! I was so excited that baby evan came, he is so adorable.

i'm on a boat.

i got my swim trunks & my flippie-floppies,
i'm flipping burgers, you at kinkos straight flipping copies
{the lonely island}
Flaming Gorge was so much fun.... only if we could have had 2 more days! The weather was absolutely gorgeous {90 degrees}, the water was glass and the friends were even better. We stayed in these cute floating cabins, did lots of boating, swimming and game playing! I will never forget Celebrity - Matt & Amber as the team captins. Can we say, Bad idea? Nah.

How about the boating community having a toga party and us doing the "electric slide" ontop of our floating cabin... good times.

i have been dreaming of the beach lately and stumbled across this photo... wayne and i just got back from two quick { weekend vacay's } and i'm excited to share some photos from them! he is amazing at taking pictures... amazing, i'm so lucky. can you believe it is already September, i can't.

It’s happened…

The following pictures were obviously taken the same night, however for all intents and purposes they will do for the story I want to tell.

One of the many things that Wayne and I have in common is soccer. We met playing soccer, we are both amazing at soccer (ha ha, jk) and we both LOVE to watch soccer. The story.

Then - our 4th or 5th ish date…
Wayne: Insane, crazy Real Salt Lake Fan
Dani: Sweet, trying to impress date, never imagined such crazy Real Salt Lake Fans

“Everyone knows everyone” in his section – constantly screaming at the other team’s players and our players, choice words used at times and the greatest celebrations when we are successful.

Now – our 150th plus date…
Wayne: Insane, crazy Real Salt Lake Fan

Dani: A Raging Real Salt Lake Fan – don’t judge, let me explain how it happened.

You know you are a Raging Real Salt Lake Fan when…

You know everyone’s name on your team and are constantly reminding them of their faults all game long. Giving them nicknames such as: AC Slater, Ned Grab-A-Boy, Mathis you SUCK.

You know all of the top players in the league – {ie} Freddy {squared} from Seattle. Montero you are the biggest DB in history, you should be sponsored by Ed Hardy. Ljunberg you are well past your prime, but still better than 90% of the MLS players {Arsenal is AMAZING}… but on Saturday Freddy squared was shut down over and over again by AC Slater and Olave.

You never stop screaming, embarrass yourself over and over again… and quite frankly, you don’t care. That is what I have become… it’s happened.

{ twice in my case }

lagoon, you are...

the sticky ground, yummy treats, spinning head and happy kids to my amusement park

I finally used my lagoon pass... I took the day off and spent it with my sister and her family. The kids were adorable, the rides were exciting and no one cried. {real tears at least}
