Veronica and Ryan saying their "Vows
Tony Walking his sister Veronica down the isle.

The "BIG" Day had arrived for Ryan Hudson and Veronica DeOllos to say their vows. Everyone has been looking forward to this day for a long time, and finally it had arrived. Ryan and Veronica have been planning for this day 07/07/07 for two years, and finally it had arrived. After dating for 6 years they finally made it official. The wedding was beautiful, lots of fresh flowers and a beautiful background. They were married at Millenium Falls, and they have a beautiful waterfall background and beautiful green backyard, and the inside was very big. Ryan and Veronica even saved up money to get the photo booth. You know the ones that you take the black and white or colored photos in with the little curtain. You could pose and the photos would come out and they pasted the photos in a book and you could write what you wanted on the pages that they were pasted on. It was pretty cool, that was the highlight of the wedding, I thought anyway. They got lots of cool photos and everyone had a fun time. We also got to dance to the music provided by a Local DJ. Lots of family attended, and Uncle Philip and Aunt JoAnn came, Uncle Johnny and Aunt Sharlene, Uncle Art and Aunt Vickie and their new grandson that Robbie and his girlfriend just had. We all had a wonderful time and Sierra wore her new dress and new shoes too. We all had fun. Congrats Ryan and Veronica Hudson. 07/07/07

"IMAGINE" Tribute Band to the Beatles

Tony and Stacy and their family were there, and all had a wonderful time. To see more about "Imagine" see http://www.imaginefabfour.com/

The New Shoes

We have found the shoes that will match the dress perfectly. The wedding is the day after tomorrow (07/07/07) and we have hit the jackpot with the "PERFECT" shoes, and we both agree on them too. We found them at the new JCPenny's on 11600 S and Bangerter. They were the only JCPenny that carried them, and they were perfect, and they had her size too, which is amazing in itself. I will have photos tomorrow. Just thought I would let everyone know. The hunt, has ended. By the way, she is not "IN" the wedding just attending it, and we already have all this drama. Aiii Yii Yiii Yiii

Alternator Fixed

Dave got up early today and took out the alternator in the truck and had it tested at Auto Zone and replaced it, all in an hour and a half. Way to go Dave, now I can make it to work on time for my Mandatory OT. That is so great that he is so handy and knowledgable like that.

Sierras Contraversial Dress

This is the dress that Sierra and I have been having our talks about

She is such a girl and such a drama queen, especially in this dress. Aiii, Yii, Yii, Yiii

We are having an upcoming wedding in our family next Saturday 07/07/07. The colors that the bride chose for the wedding are brown and turquoise. I had previously purchased a dress for Sierra that was brown so that she could wear it in the future and it was something she liked. It was a bit more modest than this one. Well anyway, I had purchased it at Kohl's and when I purchased it they gave me $50.00 in credit to use anytime the next two weeks after my purchase. Well I had forgotten about this credit and I remembered about it on June 29th and it had to be used by June 30th. Sierra decided she wanted to go shopping with me as she usually gets to buy something. Well if you know Sierra, she is a fasion diva, she has to have the coolest, newest, most Hillary Duff, Hannah Montana, Raven, Cheetah Girl Fashions. So we get to the store and its decided that Sierra can spend $25 of the $50 credit. So she goes in there and looks around and she spots "THIS" dress. It was $50 and it was on sale for $22.69. She tries it on and its a little big, so she wanted a smaller size, well that was the smallest size. I told her "Why don't you look around maybe you can find something else". OH NO, there WAS NOTHING ELSE, she wanted "THAT" dress, AND she informed me she was going to wear it to the wedding instead of the other one. I advised her that she will either have to wear a shirt underneath cause its too big on top or we would have to do some alterations. She is not having the shirt underneath business at all, so alterations are going to be needed apparently. Now we have to find shoes, and OH MAN, they have to be heels and just the right ones too, she says. We have a small problem cause her foot is wide where her toes are and its hard to find that, but the rest of her foot is skinny. She inherited my wide foot up top. So now we are shoe hunting. If you see something cute out there that would match, let me know. We have only been to Ross, and Target before we started fighting about the shoes and we stopped. Aiii, Yii, Yii, I can hardly wait until she is a teenager and we are already fighting about clothes and shoes......Man am I in trouble, she is only 7........

Taylorsville Days and the Fireworks

Today was a long day. I was on my way to get my BBQ and my truck died. We thought it was the battery so we replaced it, and it drove fine. Went to get my BBQ, and drove around and then my truck was dying again. My air conditioner is not blowing as hard and drove around for quite a while. Then my clock in the truck started fritzing on and off, on and off. I think it is the Alternator. It seems like it is draining my battery. I will have to take it to Auto Zone to see if my alternator is almost dead. Thank goodness my dying truck made it home. It is my belief that I will have to replace the alternator, what a bummer. We did have on the agenda to go to Melanie Moleni's sister (Crystal's Wedding) however with this truck issue we were not able to go. However we did make it to see the Taylorsville Days Fireworks, which was very nice. It lasted about 30 min and Sierra loved every minute of it.

My Latest Craigslist Purchase

This is my newest addition to our BBQ Family

It even came with a cover

My BBQ finally was going out on us, and gas was coming out of the front control knob. I do like the charcoal taste however sometimes it just takes too long for my busy schedule. We are going to take a camping trip to "Bear Lake" on July 10th however since my BBQ went haywire, and I was going to take that with us, and now it was on the fritz, what I was going to do.

My brother Marty, introduced me to this wonderful website called Craigslist. And Craigslist has changed my life. ha ha. I check on it all the time and I have found many a great bargain by doing so. So anyway, I was checking craigslist and I found this little beauty, only used a handful of times and in great condition for only $25.00, "WHAT A STEAL". I had paid for mine about 3 years ago and I paid $170.00 (and that was on sale), so with this one it came with the cover and a place for the spices and even a brand new spatula. It is very clean and the grills look brand new. The lady said that they didnt know how to use it very well and they preferred Charcoal cause it was easier to use. I said "Great, we will take it". We loaded it up and now we have a new BBQ Grill for a fraction of the cost. It even has a side burner too. So now we have another BBQ to take to Bear Lake. Yea!

Take a look at http://saltlakecity.craigslist.org/ You too can find some great deals. We have bought a bedroom set, a dishwasher, a car, a lawnmower, a finish nailer, and now the BBQ! We got great deals on all of them. Check it out.
