vegas means f.a.m.i.l.y.

Having been born and raised in Vegas it holds a really special place in my heart! Since I have been away from home I have found that whenever I meet people from Vegas... I tend to cling to them! People from vegas know what's up... we are all the same.

My BROTHERS! Talk about the best things to ever happen to me! NOTHING like walking in the door to my house and hugging them. Seeing Mom and Dad couldn't be better either. I think my favorite thing about going home is when my family is together and we get going... I mean we start talking about something and it is like a snowball rolling down a mountain. It starts off as even conversation then someone starts cracking jokes then we hit the real funny stuff and everyone is laughing and then Dad gets annoyed with the amount of laughter or Mom thinks its too loud and it gets better! The old stories start coming out, usually begins with something one of us did over the weekend and then Mom relates it to her hilarious childhood and then we get to the good stuff...Dad talking about RIGBY! It may seem weird... but these are the moments I live for and the reason that I go home! Words cant even describe how great these times are when the WHOLE family is together! My cousins know what I'm talking about. Good times.



Reese turned 22 this weekend! For those of you who don't really know what is going on with this boy... I'll give you the down low. He lives in Alpine Village (apartments here in Provo) and so does my friend Christina Christiansen. Her and I have a class together this semester (my favorite class for sure!) and one day she decided to set up Reese and I. We ended up going out and ever since then we haven't missed a day of seeing each other! It's really convenient that we are both from Vegas and that we share a mutual appreciation for that place. It's kind of funny since I wasn't really expecting that to happen but I am SO happy it did! People say that timing is everything and in most cases, especially this one, I think that is true. I haven't been this happy in a really long time! On a scale of 1 to wakeboarding... he falls somewhere around chocolate chip cookies... hahaha



So all in all, another great weekend at home... VEGAS BABY!
