Happy Birthday Mom, Jen, and Ang!!



My mom and my 2 sisters all have birthdays within a few weeks of each other. So for the past couple of years we get together for dinner at Teppanyaki to celebrate all 3 b-days. I guess now it is 'tradition". When the five of us get together its nothing but laughter!! After dinner we went to the movie "Mama Mia". If you love musicals, you will love this one. This was the second time seeing it for me, and I enjoyed it just as much as the first time. One suggestion if you go to see Mama Mia, plug your ears when Pierce Bronson sings. Wow!! It was burning my ears it was sooooo bad! Have they ever heard of a sound check?? Also keep a close eye on the dance moves of the men when they are wearing flippers!!! Classic moves! Loved it!! Happy Happy Birthday Mom, Jen, and Ang. I love you all!!!!!!!!!!

So You Think You Can Dance!


Last night me, Hailey, Britney, Grandma and Grandpa Hansen, Aunt Marge, Aunt Jenny, Maddie, Aunt Angie, Mckenna, and Easton went to the E Center to the So You Think You Can
Dance Live Tour. Yes, it's sad but very true that I am a SYTYCD Addict. It's on my top fav five shows on TV. I tivo every show and watch them over and over and over!! This was the first year the SYTYCD Tour has come to Utah, so there was absolutely NO WAY i was going to miss it. The first year the show went on tour I drove my girls, my sis, my mom, and 2 neices to Denver Colorado to go to the Show. Pathetic, I know!! But we had a Blast. Thank goodness i only had to drive to Salt Lake this year. My 2 favorite dancers last night were Chelsea Hightower, from Orem Utah ( i had to cheer loud for our hometown girl), and Twitch from Alabama. Their routines stole the show!! (One of my dance students auditioned for the show and made in to Vegas. She didn't go all the way, but i just found out she is Dancing at the U for the Crimson Line!! Way to go Michelle! ) My girls and I had a great time last night, it was fun to spend the night with them. Hailey woke up this morning with a raspy voice from screaming so loud. I still keep holding out hope that my girls will become dancers like their mom! : ( But, they are amazing soccer players, and I am very proud of them!!Thanks for a Fun Girls Night Out Hailey and Britney and Fam!!!

SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE TOUR!!!

Austins First BYU Game!


Travis is a Huge BYU fan, so of course he has
brain washed my son to be a diehard fan too. Thanks to the Parkinsons, Travis and Austin were able to go to the BYU vs. Wyoming game this past Saturday. The score was 44-0 for the Cougars. It was a Awesome game! At the game Austin ate a Cougars Tail. For those of you who don't know what a Cougars Tail is, it is a Maple Bar donut made to look like a Cougars Tail. It is HUGE!! Of Course Austin ate the whole thing, since he is a Big Maple Bar Fan! Austin got his first BYU hat at the game and begged Travis to wear it to school this morning. Austin was also very excited to show his new hat to his Grandpa Hansen who is a Utah Alum, and bleeds RED!
(Go Courgars!) What a good lookin Future Cougar!!!

Austins first day of school

Holy Crap my baby is in First Grade!! I keep telling
him to stop growing up, but he won't listen to me.

Thank You!!


Thanks Thanks Thanks to Brandee!!! Brandee started this very cute Blog for me.
What would I do without my best girl. You are my rock!!
I am very computer illiterate. But I am going to learn, slowly but surely, how to do it by myself.
LOVE YOU!!!

Soccer Champs!






This summer Hailey and Britney participated in the Adidas Cup Soccer Tournament. They team played 4 games and didn't give up one goal. The girls played awesome!! Hailey is a Awesome defender! It's a very rare occasion that a ball gets past Hailey. Britney plays forward most the time and has a mean left foot. Watch out if she's coming down the side cause she will cut in and score before you can blink!! Way to Go on your Awesome Win. Mom and Dad are so Proud!!!
A couple of months ago we surprised our kids with a trip to Disneyland. Grandma and Grandpa Hansen came with us. We
spent 5 days at Disneyland and California Adventure.
The girls favorite ride was California Screamin! Its one of the funniest roller coasters I've been on. Austins favorite ride was
Star Tours. We probably rode that ride at least 5 or 6 times.
We all had a great time and the kids are already asking when we can go back. Disneyland really is the "Happiest Place on Earth"
