My Journey to stomp in a puddle!

This is the most random thing i've done in a really really really long time. (Also, notice my adorable newly painted toenails. I did the myself!)

Fun Pioneer Day!

So, the 24th was really fun this year. Kate was home for the weekdend, and she, Kacey, and I joined in for some of the Monroe festivities. Even the Pelican was back to welcome us! Then, we went to the fireworks in the evening. Kate and I were so excited....I even dressed up...sort of..!

4th of July Fun!

So, the 4th of July was really fun for me this year! True, I did miss the Richfield celebration, to many of my fellow neighbor's dismay, but I had a blast! I was able to go to the Freedom Festival in Provo, and got to be on the best job ever. That would be clean-up crew after the parade. We had these awesome shirts, and I got to spend the day with awesome people!

Tribute to Good Men.

I received this phenomenol picture via email the other day...made me smile!

Pictures for my announcements:

Engagement Photographs

We're so cute together. What can I say? I LOVE DARRELL! teehee..Bro. Cornelsen saw me today, and he said, "Janell, you're glowing? How long has it been since your feet touched the ground?"

Engagement Pictures

So, I joined the posting of engagement pictures! I think these are a couple. We have a bunch. They're so much fun!

Little girls help me look cute!

So, it seems that little children are just so adorable, because, they just are! So, thankfully I have been blessed to be caught on camera with some of the cutest ones ever, and they make me look pretty cute myself. I like this idea!

Hey..I'm engaged!

Myself and my future eternal companion! Woot! The ring!

Weirdos....

So..we were sitting in Talauna's living room SAturday evening, and I was so tired, and I almost fell asleep. Suddenly, Darin put this air mattress on me like a giant blanket. IT was actually kind of nice. Then he got this funny look on his face and grabbed my camera. Then I heard this sound of inflating mattress.... Soon my blanket began to grow bigger..... And bigger.... And then came the finished product!

New York, New York!

So, my older brothers are plotting taking this trip to Alaska someday to go fishing...and well, my sister and I had always wanted to go see "Wicked" on Broadway...and suddenly a really good chance opened up. So, with our mother, we took a girls bonding week, graduation present, get away from reality for a few days trip to New York City! It was such an incredible experience! This was the first thing I saw as soon as we landed when I looked out the airplane window....I was pretty excited, and amazed I was actually in New York! Bryant Park in New York City...this was the first time I had seen Kate Felt in over 5 months..and it's not everyday you see one of your greatest friends in NYC! This isn't the BEST picture of the view from the top of the Empire State Building...but it's a try for what I could see! All of us on the 86th Floor of the Empire State Building...we didn't want to pay even more to go all the way to the top!

More of NYC.

This is Ground Zero where once stood the World Trade Center. It was one of my favorite places. It was a very solemn feeling, but it also arroused many personal feelings from September 11 in my heart. Trinity Church on Wall Street and Broadway. This is where they find the treasure in the movie "National Treasure!" This is me and Sheri with Lady Liberty behind us. We got a little bit closer..but not much while we were on the Staten Island Ferry.

Me and the Bull of Wall Street. I took this picture in honor of my nephews and brothers who absolutely love the game "Pit!" The Brooklyn Bridge! It was really awesome! And...it was really cold and windy by the waterfront as well :) Inside a little shop in Chinatown..this is why I love my sister! (Okay, not the ONLY reason..but still) This is us right outside of Chinatown...that was pretty crazyfun, but cool!
