More Video Finds

Here I am, working another graveyard shift. Missed the fireworks for Pioneer Day and I didn't catch even an minute of the parade....but I still had a great day.
Here are the videos I found for tonight.

I thought this was great and really fun:


Wow! Incredible talent:


I wanted to take ballet so bad as a little girl...but that wasn't possible, so now I just sit in awe of the ability:


I have to be the worlds worst morning person...I hate my alarm clock! And I hate snooze! I stumbled across this earlier in the week and laughed at myself!

Revenue Cycler

This week, all my hard work to be certified was recognized. I (along with three of my fellow training coworkers) were given a certificate and a pin (and a bonus) for completing our individual projects. I was very happy to get this recognition because I really love what I do.
Having joined a new group of trainers, each teams was tasked to introduce yourself and what you train to the whole group.

Our group decided to do an infomercial. Our new team name is Revenue Cycle so we created a product called the Revenue Cycler (a large blender). We totalled up our various trainings and then created an ingredient for that training. And, of course, we had to add money (in the form of green yogurt).

Derek, Tasha and I wrote the script. Kevin wrote a jingle (which was great!) Shawn created the product slide.

Here are some of the pictures of our presentation (which totally ROCKED!):

Tasha and I high-five eachother. (We played the part of that dumb person who never quite knows what the product is going to do) ("Oh isn't this great!?") Derek and Jenn were our demonstrators:

We got to the part where we add the "money" to the mixture and Jenn couldn't find it: "Where's my money?"

Found it:
Blending the mixture:
Audience testimonials: "Revenue Cycler works for me! Thanks Revenue Cycler!"
The entire team came up at the end to hand out samples (juice boxes) Scott (my boss), Kevin, Derek, Jenn, Deb, Tina, Tasha, Shawn, Bonnie, Muriel and Tim.

Friday Night Video Selection

So, as I've mentioned before, I like to find entertaining videos while working my graveyard shift. Here are tonights finds:

I love this movie and thought this compilation of Kronk was great:


We were working on making an infomercial at work this week and I found this clip of Ellen's show. I couldn't stop laughing.


I came across this one last week and wanted to wait until I had more to post. I thought it was pretty funny. If you know LDS culture, you'll get this one:

My Birthday at Echo Lake

I always enjoyed being at Echo on any day, but especially my birthday. I used to invite all my friends up, but in the last few years, I've enjoyed just hanging out with my family up there. I had a peaceful and enjoyable time with Eric and my family.

Richard's adorable children:

Tree reflections

As we left, I wanted a picture of the setting sun on the water, so I stuck my camera ou the window, way above my head, and starting snapping pictures in the general direction. When I reviewed the pictures later, I found this incredible shot. I couldn't believe how great it was. I love that you can see some people watching a guy swim after swinging on the rope (presumably)...look at it large.

Father's Day

I haven't been keeping up with my posts. It's been a busy summer and I haven't made it a priority. Here are some pictures I've taken in the last little while. You can always check them out on my flickr site.

Father's Day with Eric's Family:

Eric's Dad, John.


Three generations with the same look in their eyes. LOL!


Adorable Chance, who hates the grass so I stuck him on it so I could get a picture of him before he crawled away. Mean Aunt Tina.


Laura's amazing flowers:
