LiVinG UnDer a RoCK!!!

So, in my adventures of blog surfing I came across a store called Anthropologie. Have I been living under a rock all my life or what!!!? It is the most spectacular, amazing, stupendous, freak'n wondrous, BEST STORE EVER!!! How I have I gone so long without it? Why haven't I ever heard of it before now? Why hasn't anyone ever shared this glorious place with me???? To think of my life without would leave me with what? Nothing that's what! I lie awake at night putting together outfits and then seeing me doing fun things in those cute clothes! I have redecorated my ENTIRE house in my head like a thousand times with all their absolutely awesomeness!! I have spent so many hours on the website I should get paid for it! And I haven't even gone into a store yet!!!

...........now if only I had the money!! :)

**Deck The Halls**

It's amazing how fast the season seems to pass by! I remember as a child how things would seem to last forever and the older i get the faster things go by in a big blur. I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas filled with joy and love! The pictures below are from my family's annual Christmas party which is one of my favorite Christmas traditions :)
Does anyone else see a theme here??? I knew my cousins and I had the same taste in clothes but this was just classic! We couldn't help but take a photo of us all matching it was just so funny!!! (Angie, Me, Michelle, Erika)


The Many Faces of Rock Band!!!
I just had to post these pictures of Preston. He is loves playing Rock Band and Guitar Hero...but we don't have one yet, so he plays at everyone else's homes. After taking pictures at one party I decided to keep a "photo log" of all the different places he played these games over the holiday!!! (He seems to favor the drums)

At the Elder Quorum's Christmas Party...

At his brothers house on Christmas Eve...

At my family's Christmas Party...

*There were two other parties that he played at but I didn't have my camera...but you get the idea ;)

Christmas Time Has Come

Tis the Season! Happy Holidays everyone, hope your season is wonderful! Preston and I have been busy with the holidays, going to parties, concerts and Church activities. The picture is from last week when we went to The Forgotten Carols with my parents, this was the 16th time we have gone to it! Micheal McLean and my parents are very good friends, every year my dad waits in the line to talk with Micheal and is always one of the last in line so we can talk to him. Well this year just like every other we waited an hour after the show to go and say hi to Micheal and tell him how great the show was this year. Micheal jumped out of his seat to say hi to his "Roy Guys" and give us all hugs, we started talking and long story short Micheal McLean invited us to stay with him at his home in Malibu !! Wow, talk about feeling like rock stars he then gave my dad his personal email and his cell number!!! It's not Christmas till we go see The Forgotten Carols and this year was wonderful. For those of you who have never seen it I so highly recommend it to everyone!!! Let's remember why we celebrate this time of year, I am so grateful for all my blessings!

Preston and I at The Spaghetti Factory in Salt Lake...we always eat there before going to The Forgotten Carols (tis tradition ya know!)

My Husband the Helicopter Pilot

While my sister and her family were down here for Thanksgiving we went to the helicopter school to see Preston fly and take a fun tour of the little airport. It was so neat to see him fly, I hear about it everyday when he gets home but I have never seen my actually do it. The little kids had soo much fun watching their uncle and they even got to sit inside and the helicopter and shoot the "guns" (there aren't any guns in the helicopters but when you are 5 that seems to be the best part). We got to stand out by the hanger and watch Preston take off and then he did some maneuvers for us (like killing the motor) and then he came in and landed right in front of us. I am just so proud of him, he is working so hard and is going to solo this week!!!

Thanksgiving Fun!

I know you might all think you have the best family out there, but I am here to inform you that you are wrong! I have the best family out there! :) I just love the holidays and being able to hang out with our family's and enjoy all the wonderful traditions together. Thanksgiving was great this year we were able to spend a day with my family and a whole day with Preston's (his mom has Thanksgiving on Saturday so the families don't have to share us). Anyways, Thanksgiving was perfect and the food was yummy! :)

These are my two aunts and my cousin Rachel who accidentally burnt some of our home made rolls, and guess who took all of them home...why Preston of course!

Hello there! Sorry for the break I'm sure everyone is sick of looking at the pumpkin. Things have been crazy busy for us lately with nothing going on that would warrant a photo opt. Preston has started his schooling to become a commercial helicopter pilot and is doing fantastic! He is also still running our business and refereeing basketball, it's a lot on his plate and I am very grateful for such an amazing husband! I do have to tell everyone that the Young Women that I coach went undefeated the whole season of Volleyball and we just went to region and won 2nd place! I love my calling SO much and I would do anything for the girls, they are just amazing! I am still the manager at Anytime Fitness and trying to gear up for a figure competition in the Spring. We are super excited for Thanksgiving and for all the fun the holidays are going to bring. Sorry we aren't that exciting here in the Jugler home just working to the point of exhaustion, but I promise as the photo opts happen to download my pics for all of you to see.

SPOOKTACULAR


HaPpY HaLlOwEen!!! I really enjoy this time of year when the air is crisp and ghosts and goblins run amuck. I had a member at the gym I manage ask me a question today that made me think. She asked me how in the world I could enjoy Halloween without eating any candy (for those of you that don't know I haven't eaten sugar for 2 years) or any other tasty fall treats? My response was simple, "Well, the fact that I wont be eating any candy doesn't change the feeling in the air." This response didn't seem to be the answer she was wanting to hear because she said that not being able to enjoy the "sweets" takes away the fun of the holiday. Her question made me think about why I enjoy this time of year. I started to remember Halloween growing up when the biggest crisis in my life was what I was going to be for Halloween and all the fun memories of trick-or-treating in my grandparents old neighborhood (the one where you got the KING size candy bars). So, after going down memory lane I realized that none of those memories were about the "treats" they were about the feeling in the air and about my family. I enjoy the holiday by making memories that last forever and being grateful for the leaves that change color and fall to the ground, spook allies, pumpkin mazes, babies in costumes, and a million other great things! I hope all of you make sure it is about the memories and not the goodies. Happy Halloween!

Helicopter School


Announcement time! No we aren't pregnant but we have even better news! Preston was accepted into Helicopter School!!! His professional flight instruction is through a school located here at the Ogden airport called High Desert Helicopters. He starts school this Monday which will consist of ground school 2 times a week and flying lessons everyday. Our goal is for him to graduate in 6 months. I am so proud of him it is going to take a lot of work and dedication but no one is better suited for the job!
Just a side note, helicopter pilots are in VERY high demand all over the country right now because all the pilots that are in the field are old war vets. that are retiring. There are hundreds of jobs all over the country for us to chose from.
We are just so grateful and excited for this opportunity!!! And I will keep you posted on his progress.
