I'm an aunt!



My younger brother and his wife gave birth to a beautiful little boy today. Both mom and baby are both doing great. The little man weighed 8lb 14 oz, and 21 1/2 inches long. Still no name for the little guy, but the parents should have something very soon. Cool little guy though. Very chill.

Something Fun...

Friend sent this to me and I wanted to share. Kind of long, but worth watching.
Video Info:
Physical education teacher Lynn Kelley, who founded the Kings Firecrackers13 years ago, said the video of their performance at an Army vs. Navy game in February was posted to the team’s Web site in early April and has ignited national interest.

Mormon Tab Choir Email


So...rumors have been flying around Deseret Book HQ that I have a Bachelors Degree in Digital Media. :) It's funny...people will ask me about it and then ask, "Why are you working in the mailroom, then?" So I explain that it's always been my dream job and I can now die happy. ;)


Anyway...the Web Marketing guys heard about about my skills and asked if I could fill in on a project that was due the next day-the Mormon Tabernacle marketing email. They asked me yesterday and it was due today. Since I've not ever done a marketing email I was a bit nervous, but I really wanted to see if I could figure it out. I did. Took me about 2 hours and I pleased quite a few people. :) Kudos to me!

Eastern Europe

A friend randomly had an extra plane ticket to Eastern Europe this November. She had gotten an amazing deal and was looking for someone to go with her. It was under $1000, so long story short, I'm going in November.

As of now, the tentative itinerary is as follows:

-3 days in Budapest, Hungary and surrounding towns
-Possibly a day in Bratislava, Slovakia on the way to Vienna
-3 days in Vienna, Austria with a day trip out to Melk Abbey
-3 days in Prague, Czech Republic with a possible stop on Cesky Krumlov on the way to Prague
-Return to Budapest to come home


Since the trip is November 11th through the 22nd, I will spend my 29th birthday in Europe. Now doesn't that sound like an awesome way to celebrate! :)
