I once again scored with a fabulous hotel!

How did they know I have a sweet tooth for Marshmallows and macroons?

Sacsayhuaman...sounds like Sexy Woman


Sacsayhuaman is said to be shaped as Puma's head and the city of Cusco is the body. The rock stacking is unbelievable no mortar just perfectly placed and cut rocks.

Best Dog & Pony Show!

This was our favorite tourist attraction by far! 12 families come together and show how they make, dye and use alpaca and wool to make homemade goods. I quickly fell in love with these ladies and their abilities to use the resources around them.

I bought one of these cool pots from them-cool authentic decor.

Love the Ladies

I couldn't resist asking the ladies for an outfit like theirs-they got the biggest kick out it!

Just keep Dancin'

I was being silly and wearing my new threads through town when this man comes running at me throwing on his poncho and hat- he hands me some musical instrument and starts playing the flute and drums so I just played along as the crowd gathered.

I was laughing and smiling so hard I started crying (as you see at the end)! The music was hilarious and so fun.

Moab Trip

Daddy's Jeep-Mommy went on the 4 wheeler and only crashed once!

Cool Dude ready to hang out with Daddy! No worries he's got his chocolate milk.


Our group was large and quite eclectic old Park City PackRat Jeepers, high school buddies, employees, customers and more friends and fam. We stayed in 3 bedroom condos and it was the way to go and having Emily and Matt made the trip all the worth while.

28 and Great!

I had a fun Birthday. I went to Red Robin with some friends got a mud pie creation (oh don't worry I ate most of it all myself) then headed to the movies. We intended to see Matthew McConnaugheys movie but it was a bust we walked out and went to "17 Again" which was way cute.


Then on Friday I had the gang over (Pattersons, Bruses, Burgharts, Andersons and Hoskins) and instead of making food I went crazy and spoiled myself and ordered my favorite Smoked Turkey BBQ Sandwiches for everyone (like it or not) from the Dodo. And of course got their yummy apps to go with it! To top it off I got ice cream cakes from Basket Robins-they turned out way cute. We played a drawing game and exchanged white elephants-thanks for the laughs.

And at Last...All Clad! Paul bought me new pots and pans for Christmas but I had been holding out for All Clad. I returned the nice gift and finally 5 months later I got what I wanted it. And if you really know me you know I have to get a deal or its hard for me to buy anything.

So see if you can follow-

Retail over $1,000.00

Macy's sale $699.00

Friends N Family Day Discounted down to $524

Purchased with Macy's Credit Card $419

(I had $367 credit from Christmas pots and pans)

difference of $52 to get exactly what I wanted=priceless

PLUS: the special included an additional 3 pieces-YAY For ME!
