The Big One

I can’t believe it, I am now 30. I don’t think it has quite sunk in yet that next time some body asks how old I am I have to say 30. I’m no longer in my 20’s. It’s weird, It seems like I should feel more adultish because there is no denying once you hit 30 you’re an adult. When you are younger you envision that you will feel differently when you are at certain ages like 30 or be different, I don’t know but you’re always you I guess, you just have had more experiences that have you taught you more things… k, enough ponderings about growing up.

I actually had a pretty fun day. I took a half day off work, Ryan took me to Tucanos (brazillion restraunt) for lunch. After stuffing myself with lots of garlic sirloin the best steak ever (and I’m not a big steak eater) we went to the city pool by our house and worked on our tans and read our books. Then got home and got ready and opened up my presents from Ryan. A GPS for my car, which I have been wanting for a while (sorry Orson), a really cute (too expensive) black dress from Express & hot pink roses. Then we met up with some friends and Ryan’s family at the cheese cake factory for dinner and ate outside on the patio.

All in all a pretty good for my first day as being 30:)


Also, I hadn't gotten around to posting our 4th of July Festivities, Amber and Christian pictured above asked us to go on a impromptu trip to Vegas with them. We stayed at the Mandalay Bay hotel, which has a fun beach/wave pool, did some shopping and saw the cirque de solei show Ka.

Our Acting Debut

So, Ryan's company has been working on shooting a comercial for the Salt Lake Palace Convention Center which will be shown nationally and then at all the conventions they do. We got to drive a black convertible 1964 Thunder bird around downtown Salt Lake last night for part of that commercial. We had a camera strapped to the front of the car and then on the back of the car as we drove around. It was pretty fun, we got a lot of attention as we drove around everyone was staring at us and yelling out things. It was a little bit stressful at first because the lady that worked there that was in charge of the car told us like 3 or 4 times to be super careful plus we had to watch the camera strapped to the car to make sure it didn't loosen and fall and all while looking happy and care free as we drove around and not looking directly to the camera. I'm pretty sure my acting career is going to take off pretty soon....
These are the pictures we took with ryan's iphone.
