Update: June 10th-22nd

- I'm taking a summer class. It's a 8 week intensive course. It will be full of papers and take up a lot of time, so I may not be posting on the blog as often. The class ends August 8th. But, I'm ahead 2 weeks in my class!
- WE GOT APPROVED FOR A MORTGAGE this week!!
- Yesterday Tali dumped a whole thing of salt IN McCord's work shoes. Ha ha ha. It truly made me laugh so hard, I had tears in my eyes.
- We bought our hotel reservations for comic con.
- I'm doing a buttload of training at work and am done interviewing people for the new director position. 
- I've applied for a promotion and hope to apply for another promotion within the next month. I may not get either of them due to lack of BS degree, but I'll apply. 
- My apartment is a mess.
- Lastly,  I've been cooking vegitarian meals all weekend for a friend who is in diar need of some help. She works 60 hrs a week just to make ends meat, and is always super tired when we get together because she works so hard. I've made enough to feed them for a week, all vegitarian. It's been a BIG service project and I've been so happy to do it.

Tracy Aviary Trip Summer 2013

June 2013 Family Trip to Tracy Aviary
Today we went to Tracy Aviary in Liberty Park (SLC). It was so fun. Talia loved seeing the birds and watching them fly around. The raptors show was the best! A falcon flew right by my head and McCord's. it was awesome. McCord's favorite exhibit was the owls. I liked the tucan and all the weird looking varieties, also the show. I did get to see a string of baby quail following heir parents as they crossed the sidewalk. I loved that too. Talia liked the peacock and the flamingos. I took many pictures:
