End of Season 1

We had our banquet and it was a fun way to end a good season. Except for some broken glass and bleeding, the banquet was great. The food was amazing and the girls looked adorable.

Safety First

With Spring here and summer around the corner, don't forget your sunscreen! Just a quick bite of info on sunscreen so everyone knows the facts (yes I am a nerd but I know how important it is!)
SPF = sun protective factor - it tells you how long your sunscreen will last. So... if you take the minutes that it takes your skin to get pink (without any protection) and mulitply it by the SPF- you will know how long it lasts, and when to reapply

SPF x Minutes to pink = reapplication time (eg. 40spf x 5 minutes to pink = 200 minutes)

Sun Blocks vs Sun Screens

- Sun blocks actually block sun, its like a reflector and reflects the sun away from your skin- this is the best protections but is not always cosmetically pleasing (thicker, hard to rub in, etc.)

- Sun screens absorb the sun- instead of reflecting it absorbs the UV rays along with the heat- This doesn't protect as well but is easier to wear and rub in.

Don't forget your sunscreen- its the best way to keep your skin prettier for longer! Loves- Jami

The last little while

Life for Tyler and Jami: Work, School, Sleep, Work Schol, Sleep- this is our life for the next 5 weeks- then comes graduation ( a day I thought would never come )- So far we are just working toward that with a few fun things in between. I have my cheerleader's banquet coming up, and just helped at the relief society b-day dinner. Tyler is crazy doing work projects and looking into financial planning- we watched cute braden over the weekend. Thats about life for now- nothing real exciting. With the end of school around the corner, I am sure some big changes are in the near future. A change will be good.

We had our last competition- the girls did great and got second place! Great job- its been a season of learning, struggles, triumphs, and trials. I have grown to really love these girls and have really enjoyed watching them learn and grow. I'll never forget my season with this team and I wish them all the best luck trying out for highschool.

Weddings!

I attended two weddings in the last two weeks, one for Brooke, and old friend from El Sol, and the other, my best friend Natalie Barson Carlen. What I learned about myself this last week is that I'm a blubbering baby at weddings- at least I'll know to pack tissues for future weddings. IT was so amazing to see the unions of these two wonderful people! I loved being at Natalie's sealing- its just the most amazing feeling to know they are being sealed for time and all eternity. Its just what life is all about- being with the one you love forever. I guess I'm just a sentimental fool, but I love weddings and enjoyed these two!

The Prayer,

Its just the first verse of the prayer, but hey its something!

Celine Dion!

Yep, Its true- One night, Me, Celine, (and a few other thousand people)- Here are the pics, I'll try to get some video's on here, but I can't promise anything. Until then, enjoy the fun pictures. PS- when I am her age, I hope I have legs like that!!!

Shout Out to My Girls

I just wanted to give a shout out to my two girls, Natalie and Katie. We have been the 3 musketeers for years and although we are all busy, and involved in our own lives, we remain close and our friendship never falters! Love you girls, I can see us now, wrinkles, gray hair, out to lunch laughing and making a scene while we talk about our husbands and grandkids. Love it, Love you-

Catch Up

Here's the catch up, since I haven't blogged for a while. School is underway and going ok. Could do better, but I have diagnosed myself with a severe case of senioritis, and ... I'm not trying very hard. Oopsie. Work is going ok. My cheerleaders took 2nd at their last competition and are doing wonderful! Love it. I got super sick over valentines day but Tyler took good care of me. I'm starting to feel better.
Tyler is doing well, working hard, ready to conquer the world.
Life for us is pretty boring, taking one day at a time. We both can't wait to graduate and see where life takes us.
