Happy Father's Day Dad...

I want to wish my Dad a Happy Father's Day! He has worked very hard throughout his life to provide a good home for his family. I appreciate all that he does for me and I don't always get the chance, so I want to Thank him here. Love you Dad!

Chicago Snaps I...

I got to spend another fantastic Memorial Day weekend in the Windy City. After a crazy start (-nearly missed flight- missing bags, Oy!) it was all uphill from there; a much deserved break from the real world. I enjoyed catching up with friends and had a great time. As the weekend wrapped up I got to entertain myself and so some solo-sightseeing in the Loop. (A fact my Mom only learned of when I was back safe and sound on Utah soil.) So, what happens when I got to spend an entire (hot) day exploring downtown? Well, other than a sweaty tank top... a few hundred snapshots. Here I present to you the best of the best. Chicago is quickly becoming one of my go-to vacation destinations. Without further adieu, Enjoy!

Chicago Snaps II...

LET'S CONTINUE OUR SIGHTSEEING TOUR THROUGH THE LOOP,
SHALL WE?

It was another great Chicago getaway!
I'm already counting down until the next one.

Merci Beaucoup...

I just wanted to thank my friends Randy and Rusty for their hospitality during my latest Chicago adventure. I can't tell you just how much I appreciate it... but at least a public blog Thank You is a good place to start!

Happy Pride!...

Best. Pride. Pic. Ever. This photo makes me smile!

To my dear friends who experienced Pride '11 with me....
Love you!

...and to the two (or three) protesters [who got escorted off by police]...

"Hug You!"

Great Day for a Parade...

This year Pride was bigger and better than ever before. Change is happening before our eyes. people-- even in good ol' Salt Lake City. (That's SL,UT if you're nasty!) Thousands of people lined the new and improved parade route as (once again) Mother Nature provided the perfect backdrop for this, my most favorite day of the year [to be stuck in this state.)] I would officially like to thank Candace, Ryleigh, Erik, Chelsea, Hannah, Ellie, Matt, Lisa, Scott, Jenn, Marley and Lucas for coming out (not literally) and showing their love. It was great to experience it with all of you! So if ya couldn't make it or just want to relive the magic, I've provided a few snapshots. If you get the chance, check it out next year. See you there. Live. Love. Pride!
