How does this work?

It says,"Made with natural fruit flavors. Products contain no fruit juices."
Could someone please explain how it can taste like naural fruit but not have any juice?

My Quick Trip to LA..

So you know how I like to go to the tapings of different talk shows and the like. Well I did it again. The Bonnie Hunt Show is taping and my friend Tiff and I went and had a day in LA and saw the show. That is when I went to In and Out for those asking where I was able to procure such wonderful cuisine.
On the show that day was Nia Vardalos and Glen Campbell. We all know Nia but who is the Glen Campbell character? Someone who was famous while my mother was still single so that part was WAY over my head.
If you get to see the show I am in a very green polo. So keep your eyes peeled for me.
I flew right home that night just in time for bed. It was a very fun day trip.
Whos going with me next time?

Mmmm In-n-out

Honestly what is better than a double double combo meal at the local In-n-out? Went to the Bonnie Hunt show today and of course had to snag a burger for lunch.. Freakin awesome I say!!

Summer fun

Is there anything more fun than jumping on the trampoline with the sprinklers on underneath? Little kids seem to think so. Little cece was having so much fun doing some little routine.. I couldn't keep my eyes off her

Holy crappola..

So I'm last person McGee to get on the flight, and no not the nonstop to Salt Lake like I would have liked but I had to burn a vacation pass to sit in 26A COACH!!!!! But I'm on the plane out of Paris which is what matters.. My friend dan and I were trying to brainstorm options but thankfully we did make the flight.. Ill send another update out of CVG if I have time...

So it turns out that I did have time in CVG but because the airport there is in Northern Kentucky and not all that close to the city, I didnt have a cell signal. SO yet again, I am THEE last person to board the flight to SLC. So much for a flawless trip eh.. oh well..

Here are some of the amazing photos..

Funny haha...

Bonjour from the wonderful city of paris. Yes you can see out my hotel window is the pompiers station (fire dept) and that fireman walking in.. He was walking out when we came walking by and did a silly macho walk for his friends that were behind us. Totally made me laugh.. Been to the Moulin Rouge, Sacre Coeur and the Notre Dame.. Now off to dinner.. Need to blog about hitting the lady one the metro, twice, in the head!

Ok so about that lady. We were hopping on the metro heading to Notre Dame. We are squeezing into the train car and dont think any more people can fit in. Well these three, yes 3 guys think they can squeeze in too so they just back on in. Im falling and reach up to grab the pole and smack the lady next to me in the head, not hard. So I'm apologizing like crazy. Well at the next stop a rush of people pushes against me to leave the car so I go to let go and hit her again this time in the back of the head. She got out and moved to the next car, and I dont blame her one bit!

Lake Powell

Ok so im SUPER slacking in getting this post up and running.
I have nothing to blame but my super self slackiness.
ok ive had to revise this like 3 times.. but its got all it needs now..

Hiking Mt Olympus

So Katie texted me last night with the brilliant idea of hiking Mt Olympus.
Ive always had a fear, or aversion to that mountain ever since my first hike up it. It was my first hike with the scouts. I was ill equiped. I had my fathers frame backpack, a bowl of leftovers in a cool whip container and TWO otter pops. Ps it was an over nighter. It was awefull to say the least.
But today really kicked my butt and Im really glad I did it. I conquered that mountain in just the morning. We got to the trailhead at 645am and were down by 1130.
Heres the pics.

Watch out world...

Here I come.. So this is my birthday present to myself this year. My extravagant purchase for my 30th birthday.. How did I do?

Itly? What you doin in Itly?

Katie and I got to tag along again on one of Mom and Pops adventures. They and a group of friends rented a villa in Tuscany. Yes in Italy, about a 45 min train ride outside of Florence.
I took the Redeye flight to JFK where I met Katie later that day (after a nice long nap on the floor in the sun) Together (me in first class her in coach)(but I did score her 3 seats to herself so don't look at me like that) we took the flight to Milan. There we had to find the bus (it only took going the wrong way once) that took us to Milano Centrale train station. From there it was a 2h45m train ride to Florence, then another 45m train ride to the station at the bottom of the hill from the villa. There we waited for mom and pop to fetch us in the little Ford Fiesta and zoom up to the villa..

We did Pisa, Cinque Terre, Venice, Florence and spent the last two nights in Lake Como.
Here are a GRUNDLE of pictures from each place so I'll put them in different categories so you can see each area.
ENJOY....
