Christmas Lights!!

Last night we all headed out to Rancho Cucamonga because there is almost an entire neighborhood (probably about 100 houses) that is totally decked out with the most Christmas lights that I have ever seen in my life! It took us a couple of hours to walk through the entire neighborhood and I don't even think that we saw all of them. The houses were absolutely amazing. Oh yeah, just on a random note, among the thousands of people in that neighborhood last night, who do we happen to run into? DEV and LISA! It was so random. Oh yeah, and a big thank you to the Jewish people for the free hot chocolate and cookies! Anyway, here are some pictures:

Triton Company Party in Salt Lake

This weekend all of here who work at my apartment complex went down to Salt Lake City for Triton's annual company party. This is the first time that anyone went from up here because it is such a long drive and they usually have them on a weeknight when nobody from up here can go. Anyway, this year they had it on a Friday night and they offered to put us all up in the hotel where the party was being held. So on Friday right after class I headed down with my managers and made it just in time for the start of the party. The party was at the Raddison hotel about 1 block from Temple Square. It was a pretty nice place! After the hors d'oeuvres we went into the "wasatch room" where a nice dinner was all set up for us. When we sat down, there were wine glasses on the table with a mystery red liquid in them and we were all wondering if it was alcohol so we were all a little nervous to try it. We were obviously some of the only Mormon people there and we probably stood out! So after smelling it, and me trying it, we discovered that it was just fruit punch and we felt kinda stupid. Anyway, the dinner was great and afterwords me and Janae headed over to temple square to check out the lights. Overall, it was a great weekend!

This is my hotel room with an awesome "Select Comfort" Sleep Number bed. My sleep number is 45 just in case anyone was wondering!



Here I am trying that mystery red drink at our table. It was actually way good. I had like 3 glasses!






Here are some nice cars that I saw while down there. There was the new Challenger, Nissan GTR, and a Noble.




This is what it looked like out my window this morning! It finally snowed! It is starting to melt already. Bummer.
