Happy Birthday!

Pretend like it’s the end of July beginning of August…

Happy Birthday Jason and Charlotte!  Jason’s birthday was on August 9th and his mom’s was on July 28th so we decided this year to celebrate their birthdays at the same time.  We celebrated by going to dinner and then spent the night at Jason’s house playing the Wii and Cards.  It was a great time. Jason and his mom kicked all our butts playing cards.

Funny story from the night, we ate at Los Hermanos and I guess in High School Jason got one of those T-Shirts that allow you to get a free “specialty drink” if you wear it during your visit (who knew) anyways when we showed up to the restaurant Jason’s mom had brought his shirt so we could get this free drink! (I can’t believe she had saved it all this time, we’re talking like 10 years…GO CHARLOTTE!)

Well, Jason put that old thing on and it did the trick. If you ever find yourself at Los Hermanos you have got to try the specialty drink with Prunes!  I know you are thinking gross, and believe me I did too, but it is DELICIOUS!!

Jas and his mom.

Smile, its your birthday!

I love you!

I love him.

Los Hermanos!

Happy B-Day!

Year Book Pictures!

A couple weeks ago Jason sent me something titled “yearbook pictures”.  I opened the files and this is what I found…Halarious!

If we were born 40 years earlier this is what we would have looked like during the different stages of our lives.

I love getting little surprises like this!

Shalauna 1966

Year 1966

Looks good! I would have been the classic 60’s kind of girl.  Do you think I can bring this look back?

Shalauna 1978

Year 1978

Ha!  Love the part down the middle of my head.  I look like all I care about is boys, rock and roll, and making sure my bell-bottoms are really wide.

Shalauna 1990

Year 1990

Oh dear, something tragic happened to my look between the 60’s and the 90’s.  We can all agree that the 90’s were not good to me!  Was I trying to look like Tina Turner? “You’re simply the best!”

Shalauna 2000

Year 2000

Classic, love that off the shoulder dress.  I hate to say this, but this picture looks 1000 x’s better then my real graduation picture.  Sad but true!

Jason 1970

Year 1970

Hahah!  How could he not be the coolest kid in school with those glasses and that hair!

Jason 1972

Year 1972

Wow, in two years he really changed his look.  With the part in his hair don’t you think this would have been his pre-mission photo?!

Jason 1988

Year 1988

Well, it looks like he is back from his mission and ready to let loose!  I love that mullet… business up front, party in the back!

Jason 1996

Year 1996

Haha!  I think his hair got caught in a tornado on the way to get his picture taken!  Totally looks like it, right?!

I thought these were great and wanted to share.  Hope you enjoyed them as much as I did!

Finally an Update!

Alright, it has been far to long since my last update, I have so much to write about but don’t know where to start!  To make it easier, and to help me blog in order of events, I am going to make each event have its own category and thus its own post (instead of jamming everything into one huge post).

Get ready for some awesome reading and fun new pics!  Be sure to scroll way down and go to the next page, there are at least 7 new posts for your reading pleasure.

To get started, I noticed a funny new habit I have.  I didn’t notice how out of control it was until looking back over the last few months of photos.  Every time I upload pictures from the camera to my computer I see more of whats below then I do of actual pictures!  I love the freedom of a memory stick!  Looks like this habit isn’t going anywhere soon:

Smile!

Cheese!

Lovin' it!

I agree, its a little out of control but lets be honest you do it too!   Hey, if nothing else at least I can see how fast my hair is growing and how slow my tan is coming along!  Love it!
