JJ Grey & Mofro


Every year, we hit at least one concert at Red Butte Gardens. Last night was JJ Grey & Mofro. Who in the world is that you ask? Look them up, they are pretty good. They are a little bit bluesy and little bit rock'n'roll and their music just has a way of putting you in a happy mood. JJ Grey has one of the best voices around...he's got a lot of soul for a white guy :)
I asked Garrett to take a picture of us. Me: Look at your face. Are you happy with this?

Me: Much better.

Happy Friday Ya'll

It's Friday. Woohoo!!
Just in case anyone cares, here are a few Kener Family updates:
*We're in Full mountain biking mode. Garrett and I are signed up for 3 endurance races this summer. We're doing a 50 miler in Breckenridge over 4th of July weekend, a 50 miler at Grand Targhee Resort in August and a 75 miler in Park City over Labor Day.
*As I mentioned above, we're going to Breckenridge next weekend. I'm super excited for the race and to spend 3 days enjoying the town. I have already picked out restaurants for each night cause I'm just cool like that :) My plan, other than racing is to have several REAL margaritas, a REAL draft beer and bootleg some Fat Tire back to Utah. SEE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE TO ME UTAH??? You have made the most important part of my vacation all about getting good alcohol. Thanks for that.
*We just booked our plane tickets to Austin for the ACL Music Festival in October. I scored some nonstop plane tickets for a great deal so that + 3 Full days of music makes me a happy girl. You can bet your life I'll be packing my rain boots this year after last year's rain and bare feet and poo fiasco. Use your imagination, but it was gross.
* I've decided that I have a mild case of OCD, but that's a whole other post for a whole other day.
* I've been riding Jones (the horse) twice a week. I am really attached to that big guy.
* We have a concert this Monday, June 28th at Red Butte Gardens...JJ Grey and Mofro. Lots of friends, bring your own booze and food, great music...pretty much a perfect night in my book.
* Garrett's parents are coming to Utah in a couple of weeks and staying thru the summer. I'm excited to spend some time with them...they're the best ever!
* My sister is getting married in December...on a CRUISE! Garrett and I have never been on one and we're psyched. I am going to have to work on my terrible biking tan lines before then, b/c oh my, they are not cute. Not cute at all.
*We had a mountain bike race on Tuesday. I was killing it. Only 2 minutes behind First Place, who is a pro rider!! 20 feet before the finish line, I went down hard in the gravel. The entire right side of my body is covered in road rash and bruises. This is just how I roll and it surprises no one anymore. Garrett has become a Pro at applying Neosporin to my wounds.
*My hair. This relates back to my OCD issue, but I feel like I'm never happy. I think I'm going back to REALLY blonde like it used to be. None of this dark stuff or in between stuff. I really do think blondes have more fun. Sorry brunettes.
*Garrett's garden is doing pretty well, but nothing to eat yet. The plants were having a rough time thriving, seeing as though this last week is the firt week this summer where I have not worn a jacket. It snowed 2 weeks ago for crying out loud. That just makes me mad. Real Mad. There is nothing worse than wanting to wear tank tops and flip flops and shorts and walking outside to snow. It's terrible.
*Allright, I've bored you enough. Thanks for hanging tough thru that. I'll leave you with a pic of me and Mr. Mogs just b/c I think he's so darn cute. Have a great weekend everyone.

If Munch ever saw this picture, HE.WOULD.DIE.

Accessories


Garrett and Mogs both got a haircut this past weekend by yours truly. I told Garrett he could get a bandana too, but if you can believe it, he declined.

Just Happy


Sometimes I wish Garrett had a better job. Sometimes I wish I had a better job. In the end though, when I really think about my life, I don't think I would change a single thing. We aren't wealthy. We don't have extravagant things. Our house is small. Our jobs are just that...jobs. Our jobs do not consume our lives and I feel sorry for people who have jobs that do. I couldn't love this guy anymore if I tried, so yeah, life is pretty good.

Cold and Wet


As far as weather goes, this weekend was pretty much a bust. It was cold and rainy and there really wasn't much going on. Garrett and I were bummed we didn't get any time out on our bikes and Munch was bummed we stayed in the house all weekend and forced him to pose for pictures. For everyone's sanity, let's hope this week brings sunshine and clear skies.

It's Friday


I would love to post a pic of one of my cute doggies to help make your Friday happier. But I don't have one right now. All I have is this terrible picture of two people wearing hideous outfits and even more hideous sunglasses standing in front of a rather beautiful view. Enjoy the view.

Happy Friday.

3 Years

Yesterday there was a big bouquet of flowers waiting for me when I got home. That means one of two things: My birthday or my anniversary. Well it wasn't my birthday.
3 years have gone by so fast. Garrett is my best friend, and the best husband a girl could ever ask for. These first 3 years of marriage have been awesome and I can't wait to see what the future has in store for us. Happy Anniversary Garrett. I love you.
