7 Peaks Summer

Let me begin by saying that I know the above picture is a very unflattering and horrible picture of me but what we won't do for a blog update!---especially one of 7 peaks!! Jed about died when I told him I bought a season pass yet again this year because he thought for sure once I had a baby I would grow up and not want to go "hang out like a 16-year old at 7 peaks anymore"----boy was he wrong! I love it!! To me summer = 7peaks! Of course I don't get the tan like I use to----or at least not a very even tan because when you have a baby wearing 50+ sunblock that is sitting on your lap you tend to get a little blotchy. So here's to another great summer at 7 peaks.....the best place in Provo (minus there dumb a-- little high school punk employees!)



Here's Cash totally crying because it's time to go home. Is it horrible that whenever he starts crying I totally start laughing because I think the little face he makes is so hilarious! He's been known to just bust into that cry for no reason --especially if something startles him----stinkin hilarious!

Back to Work!!!

The day I've been dreading for 3 months finally came this past Monday......the day I had to go back to work! I told Jed I didn't want to go back and he told me that I spend way too much money to stay home.......so rude...but so true!---ouch! So Jed watched Cash on Mon, Tues, and Wed and I have to say that he did such an awesome job! I'm not even kidding, he is the best dad ever. He took such good care of Cash, kept the house clean and even managed to plant the garden---dang! It's so nice that he can watch him the days that he's no traveling. Jen watched him Thurs and today and I just got an e-mail a few minutes ago from her with these pictures. It's so nice having her watch him.....she treats him just like her own and takes such awesome care of him which makes it so much easier for me to go to work. My sister-in-law Lesa will be back next week to watch Cash 3 days a week but it's so nice to have Jen as my back-up.


I was thrown right into work by my boss this week. On Wednesday we had our bi-annual Marriott Inspection and he informed me on Tuesday that I would be running the inspection!!! I was a little nervous seeing as I haven't been here for the past 3 1/2 months so I had no idea where we were as far as the preperation. This should make all of you who stay in Marriotts feel very good about staying in Marriotts.......every 6 months we go through an inspection......we usually don't know when they are coming and the inspection lasts all day. The inspector randomly chooses rooms from the hotel and inspects them.....you can fail you inspection if they find anything like a hair in the bed or on the bedding anywhere, they take a black light to the entire bathroom to check the cleanliness. They take a damp wash cloth and rub in on the carpet to see if there is any dirt. They check for dust and dirt everywhere---I'm talking even on the top of door jams going into any area of the hotel. They even take out the baby cribs we have and black light them to check for any stains. They grill our employees on the Marriott Standards and I had to answer all the General Manager questions and provide all documentation showing all our action and emergency plans. Needless to say it's intense!!!! We ended up scoring a 91%!!!!!! I was pretty proud of our staff! It's nice to be back to work but nothing beats seeing my little boy and seeing him smile the minute I walk in the door----that's the good stuff!!!!
