Christmas Disney Style


So, since I bought a season pass to Disneyland, I have been able to go through all of the seasons... Christmas is the BEST!!! Main Street is all done up and the castle looks like it is covered in snow. The nightly fireworks are even Christmas Themed and they make snow!!! It truly is a magical place and it was a fun night out with Sara and Julie!! :) Yeah for Disney and my girls!

Hawaii Fun!!

Thanksgiving in Hawaii!!!

So, since my time at SkyWest Airlines is officially coming to an end, I thought it would be fun to take my friends and family to Hawaii for Thanksgiving. Little did I realize that we would have some major ADVENTURES!! (That was for you, April). We went on this crazy hike to a waterfall (the one in Jason Mraz's video, I'm yours)on Thanksgiving day and did not get back to eat dinner until 9:30pm. It was crazy but something we will never forget!! We are just thankful that Char made it!! :)
It was fun to be at the beach on Thanksgiving and spend time with my mom, Geoff & Molly and Jen and April. Here are some pictures from our time spent in the Islands. We did get to attend the temple in Laie, go to the Polynesian Cultural Center and Pearl Harbor. It was pretty amazing and fun. The best part was we cruised in a Mustang Convertible the entire time!! Riding in style!! :)

Protecting Marriage....

Update...

Hello blogging world friends!! I am just throwing out a little update on my latest and greatest. I am just chillin and working in So. Cal and loving the weather. I have had some health challenges lately, but I am working to get those rectified. I am writing today to talk about marriage. We here in California are fighting tirelessly to protect marriage and to keep it between a man and a woman. We would appreciate any support from those of you out of CA. Arizona and Florida are also voting on a constitutional amendment to protect marriage. Please click on the following links to read about the fight that is going on. We need your support! Let's protect the sanctity of marriage!! :)

Pictures of my Travels.... enjoy!!

Where in the world is Megan????

Hello MY FRIENDS!



I am really back this time.. for REAL!! I know that i have said this before, but this time it is true!



So, I decided to start back in the world of blogging with a little look at where I have been the last few months.. ready? Here goes...



December 2007-January 2008

ITALIA!! I spent time in Rome & Florence! YEAH! I heart rome! Art, architecture, beauty, good food... Michelangelo is amazing and so is gelato!

PARIS... the city of Love! I have always wanted to visit Paris and I finally made it! Le Tour Eiffle, La Louvre, patisseries... j'adore Paris! I was here for New Year's 2008! The year of travel, fun and adventure!



January 8, 2008

I moved to Huntington Beach, CA and started a new life as a beach lover and working for a nursing home company. It has been a crazy change, but a good one! I love my new life by the ocean.



May 2008

I had the great opportunity to go with my new company to Maui for a week. I played cruise director and we stayed at the magnificent Grand Wailea Resort and Spa. Good tan, great food, amazing pool and beaches... It was AMAZING!! I threw in a few pictures of that just for fun!



February, April, June and August 2008

UTAH!! Since I have moved, I didn't realize that I would miss my family so much... or visit so often... geeze! Here are some of the fun times we have had there!!



June 2008

My birthday... should be a national holiday... :) well, okay, that is over doing it a bit. But I did have two birthday parties. Sweet!

Snowbird!! My family rented a condo up there and had so much fun! We alpine sled, jumped on the trampoline, rode the tram, ate ice cream and ziplined... fun times with my favorite peeps!



July 4, 2008

My first 4th of July in Huntington... it was fabulous!! I had a great time... friends, beach, parade, food, BBQ, house parties, bike rides, fireworks and dancing! How do you go wrong with a schedule like that!



August 2008

Drop it like its YAUGHT 2008!! (I know its spelled yacht... this is just an inside joke!) Hanging on the Ghetto Child.... doing morning yoga and afternoon hip hop. Eating, playing, jumping off the top deck, "A church movie... about missionary work!! come on!!", Catch Phrase, Mafia, delicious cookies, reading our Stephanie Meyer books, hiking on the Channel Islands, driving golf carts around Catalina, sharks, whales and dolphins, oh my!! Nothing beats a great tan and great friends.

Santa Barbara- so, the girls and I decided to get out of town one weekend and what better place then S.B.? We stopped at the LA temple on the way out of town and it was amazing. We hit the beach, rode horses, struck a pose by some hay... and then got caught... ate some delicious food and shopped in a ghetto mexi-mart that smelled of rotten fruit. FUN TIMES FUN TIMES!!

New York New York

My best friend, Sara, who left her heart in CA, is finally coming back to claim it. So, I had to visit her one last time in the city that never sleeps. We had one of the most fabulous weekends ever! Brunch in Tribeca, strolling along the Hudson, tickets to A Tale of Two Cities (fabuloso!!), dinner at Tony's in Times Square, walking through Central Park, Cowbell, hoola hoops, watching August Rush outside in Central park, playing games, rootbeer floats, new friends, the "lap game", the 8th ward, lunch in Battery Park City, gelato and the subway. Whew! Fun whirlwind weekend!



Labor Day Weekend 2008

Boyz II Men Concert- Yes, you read that correctly! It was at the Scera Shell in Orem, UT and it was FABULOUS!! Love me some BOYZ II MEN!! Motownphilly was in full effect! LOVE LOVE LOVE IT!

Jackson Hole/Yellowstone- We drove up to Jackson and had a great time! We ate at a local restaurant called Hegg's and had WAY too much to eat! We saw bison (not buffalo), took on the Snake River and our guide, Steve, and won, camped, didn't sleep and camped some more, watched Footloose in the tent, had a bear in our campsite, roasted marshmallows and made Reese's S'mores (SOOO DELICIOUS!!), shopped, ate and went to Yellowstone. I love the Grand Tetons... they are so amazing and beautiful!! WOW! I also went to Yellowstone for the first time, and yes, I did see Old Faithful and we waited around for it to erupt. It was amazing!

And... I'm back

Well, I am trying to make it slowly but surely back into the world of blogging. I have been busy lately and I am trying to make an effort to get back into it. I just recently had my friend, Dave Cruz, in town from Australia and it was so fun! We went to Wicked, an Angel's game and tried to get on American Idol... but to no avail. I had a great time with him and I am still recovering from our week-o-fun! I hope to be back on the blogging line again soon! :)

Great Scott!


So, I recently bought this fabulous trilogy and although the future in #2 looks sadly like a more punk version of the 80s, I have to say it might not be that far off, seeing as the 80s are back now, and will probably make another appearance in say, 7 more years. I also decided that I am a big fan of Huey Lewis and his soundtrack additions. I just wanted to give a shout out to Back to the Future and my favorite celeb that I have had on a plane... Christopher Llyod. GREAT SCOTT!!

Let's hear it for the CNAs!!

I have spent the last couple of days as a CNA in a SNF. (To those of you who don't speak medicalease... that is a certified nurses assistant in a skilled nursing facility). Well, I am not a CNA, but I assisted them. I changed bed linens, gave showers to residents, dressed them, combed their hair, spritzed them with perfume, gave them their "nourishments" ( that is code for mid-morning, afternoon and bedtime snacks!), served them lunch and dinner and just provided conversation. I had a great time and I definitely have a new appreciation for those workers who do the majority of the work and get paid the least amount of money. I guess it just goes to show that until we walk a mile in someone's shoes, we really don't know how hard their job is or is not. So, let's hear it for the CNAs!!!
P.S. I just thought this guy was cute, so I put his picture in here... he he he he

Megan's in the O.C.



Well, its true! I am officially a Californian! I moved to Huntington Beach, CA about 3 weeks ago and I am loving it down here in the CA sun!! I said buh bye to the airlines for now and I am currently working for a Healthcare Company here in the O.C. (Yes, I had to throw that in, because I am still mad that show went off the air...na na na na na... na na na na na...CAliFORNia!!) Anyway.... I digress.


I moved into a small house here in the HB and my roomies are great and I live a mere 4 blocks from the beach in a cute little house with a front yard, back yard, cute patio, garage and a BBQ. You know, the necessities. It is so nice! I love the weather and the change and just a chance at a new start and a fresh social scene. I do miss all of my peeps back in UT, but it is always nice to meet some new friends.


So, I am working, or working it out here in CA. And, you are all invited down to visit and sleep on my two couches, but maybe you should wait until I know how to get around a little better. Right now I pretty much have the routes to church, work and the grocery store down. Okay, and the movie theater (are you even surprised?). So, if I veer off the path at all, there is a problem and I am lost. Just a head's up. But, I DO know where the beach is! 4 BLOCKS THAT A WAY!! Come on down and bring your swimsuit and lotion!


Walk it out....
