Body Worlds!


On Saturday my parents, Jesse & I went up to the Body Worlds exhibit. This thing is fascinating! I absolutely loved it! God did an indescribable miracle when he created our bodies! I have always known how awe-inspiring our bodies are, but to see and hear all of the micro details of how things run inside of us was astounding. I know everyone has their views and opinions, some don't think its right that a persons body is on display like art, however my personal opinion is, these people donate their bodies to science and this is what science gives us, so why not? What a blessing it was to learn so much more about whats going on inside of us, how we horde off disease, grow hair, how much blood is pumped through our bodies each day all because of our hearts, what smoking's toll really does to the inside of you, what cancer looks like, the amazing change of a fetus from 10 weeks to 20 weeks, what an obese person looks like from the inside, the amazing structure of muscles and tendons under the adipose tissue and skin, how a person can actually die of a lonely heart!! I could go on and on about this amazing structure we carry around everyday. I strongly suggest if you have not seen this exhibit, GO!! You will not be disappointed. Go and learn about what God has given us, it makes you want to take better care of yourself, not just physically but emotionally as well. Believe it or not emotion has a strong power of how your body functions!! What a blessing to have a body this extraordinary!!

Jesse & I outside the exhibit

We also saw these guys there! This is a guy and a girl and from the brain down the back was extracted out to see whats inside. These guys are called Plastinates. Plastination is a technique to preserve bodies or body parts. The fat and water are replaced by certain plastics, yielding specimens that can be touched, do not smell or decay, and retain most microscopic properties of the original sample! Pretty cool!

We also stopped at the Cheesecake Factory to eat!!

Me & Jesse, do we look full? How can you not stuff yourself there?

Halloween Parties & Tampa Bay!


First let me just say Tampa Bay had a freakin awesome night! The Rays in the World Series after beating Boston 3 to 1 in game 7, and my Buccaneers won 20 to 10 against the Seahawks! What a great night for Tampa Bay and for Football and Baseball Fans.
So Saturday Jesse and I went to his company Halloween party and a surprise party for my Aunt Steph's 60th. At Jesse's company party we won the scariest costume award! Not sure how scary we were but I guess there wasn't alot to choose from. Jesse dressed up as the Punisher, and I dressed up as Lara Croft. Then we headed up to salt lake for the surprise party where the families were all dressed up as well. Jesse and I ended up getting in to an airsoft gun fight and took home some serious welts. All in all it was a great weekend!! Sucks it had to end.

Jesse & I with our award! Whop WhopHot husband, me, Jenn (Audrey Hepburn) & Jeff

Take Off!

What a fun weekend! To start off Friday night my very best friend Sarah and her husband Chris took us flying! Chris is a pilot and his father has a plane that he took us in! It was a cute 4 person little thing and was so much fun! Jesse sat in the front so that Chris could teach him a bit about flying, Jesse has always wanted to be an Airforce Pilot! Then he let Jesse take over and he got to fly the plane for the first time! It was so awesome to see him fly! He was so excited! Sarah and I chilled in the back and just enjoyed the ride! Sarah also brought her 3 month old daughter Adelynn, it was so cute!! She trusts her husband alot to take her little baby up there! Afterwards we went to Ruby River for dinner and a nice conversation! It is so nice to have good friends around that you can trust and they trust you! Sarah and Chris we want to thank you guys for taking us in the plane! It was so fun and a great experience! You guys are great!!!
On Saturday Jesse and I went to get a massage before the priesthood session of conference. While all the boys were at the priesthood meeting the girls went to a chick flick! We saw Nights in Rodanthe! I love love love Richard Gere so this movie was perfect! I don't want to spoil it for anyone, but the ending SUCKED! can't they make a good love story that ends up Happily Ever After anymore? Total Tear Jerker, I sobbed like a baby! But it was still a good show! Then of course Conference was this weekend! Its always a comfortable relaxing weekend with conference. Such great talks reminding us of things that some how always pertain to life right now. HMMM wonder who that could be!! I loved how alot of the talks were about family and harmony in the home! Its so true your family is the most important thing here on the earth and you have to take care of it and treat it with love, respect and kindness at all times! After conference Jesse and I took a drive up the canyon to see the beautiful fall colors and alittle snow on the tops of the mountains! Hold off snow, just a bit longer! We then ended our weekend with our sunday night movie together, Tombstone! LOL Jesse was in the mood for a good western!
