Need some ice for that BURN!?

Today at lunch I decided that I would go tanning so that when I go to Mexico I'll already have a little tan so I won't have to worry too much about sun screen and what not. Good idea? I thought so. I ended up going to this tanning place right around the corner from my work and the lady put me in this "awesome bed. No one ever burns in it and its 10% healthier for you skin then the other ones. Plus it is our special this month so its half off." Thinking I had a good deal I went on my way. Yeah pretty sure I know why its half off. I am burnt like a marshmellow! Could not believe it, looked in the mirror and I was all blotchy; had the awesome goggle lines and was dying from the hottness of the burns. It would have been okay if I didn't have to go back to work. What a disaster! I scrummaged through my purse looking for a miracle and found a tube of concealer. I began to color my face in hopes of looking somewhat normal and headed back to work. Of course my office has to be one that everyone always goes through and I find myself hiding everytime someone walks in. Not practicle, but what else can you do.

Here's to trying not to get burned in Mexico.

Adventures of Milo

Milo decided to have quite an adventure this weekend. Friday we took him to the dog park with our friends Katie and Jesse. We love going to Tanner Park which is a dog park at the mouth of parleys canyon that is huge to say the least where you can have your dogs off the leash and mingle or just go on fun walks through the trees, next to the river, on the mountain or just in the field. Yes all that in one place! Fabulous! Needless to say this is Milo's favorite place. In the past when we have gone there have been dogs about every 100 yards or so. Perfect for a little dog and getting his attention when need be. However friday must have been national dog day because there was literally a bajillion dogs. Okay not literally but there was dogs everywhere you could see. People with even very well trained dogs were having problems keeping them by them; and as you can imagine Milo was quite overwhelmed with all the dogs and had to see/meet as many of them as he could in 2 minutes and ran all over the place. We of course looked like chickens with our heads cut off yelling for Milo and chasing after him. During the walk people who we had never even seen before would walk past Milo and say "Oh Hi Milo!" like they'd known him for forever. That boy sure knows how to get around! lol. He did have a little incounter with a bull dog. About the same size as him however the bull dog got his whole mouth around Milo's back. I have never seen Milo yelp the way he did then. I guess lesson learned Milo is no longer the king of the mountain like he thought he was.

By the end of the walk we got to the pond where dogs can swim around. We were trying to get Milo to go in and in his attempts to go around the pond actually slid down a 10ft concret wall smack into the water. We all just kinda stood around watching to see what he would do... however time went by and by and he still had not come up out of the water. My motherly instincts made my heart drop and start to get nervous that he wasnt coming up. I yelled to Jon and we must have one mind because the same time I yelled he was in the water going in after him. Poor Milo almost drowning! Jon said when he got to him Milo just couldnt figure out which was up and which was down but as soon as his head got out of the water he began to dog paddle. Hopefully he'll be willing to get in the water again!Jesse was quick with his phone and got a picture of Jon and Milo coming out of the water.

You've had a Birthday!

Shout HOORAY!

Happy birthday Husband of mine!!!

Shooting Weekend

Last weekend we went shooting with our friends Britney, Michael, Tanner and Betsy in the west desert. Jon and I haven't really been shooting that much; and never together so it was overall a really fun day! Milo actually loved it! He never jumped or anything at the gun shots and for the most part did a good job staying out of the way and playing on the dirt mounds.

The Adventures of Milo

Milo, Jon and I took a quick trip to Target the other night. Jon and I were only going to be a couple minutes in the store so we just stuck Milo in the back of the car (my mazda is a hatchback so we thought oh no problem he'll still be able to breath but he'll be stuck back there) locked the doors and were on our way. We come back 10 minutes later seeing my hazads flashing and thinking what in the world is going on? We come back to Milo in the drives seat and had apparently turned the hazards on and the brights.
