Victory

Johnny WON his Fight on Friday at the Mackay Events Center! His fight was very FIRST and even though the Throwdown people were completely disorganized, Johnny got a Victory!! Triangle Choke in the first round :) We're so proud of your hard work and your mad skillz Johnny!
I was too wrapped up in the fight to remember to take pics of Johnny in action, but take it from me he looked GOOD, real good!

Coolest Playground


Last Weekend Johnny and I stopped at this awesome playground by our house to eat our lunch. Is this not the COOLEST elementary school playground EVER? I had to post because I secretly want to go back and play longer.
They have THIS thing....it's soo cool.
But, PLEASE somebody explain this death slide to me? Is this thing for REAL? I dunno, But I like it.
How cute are these two teetering?!
She's a Rock Climber already, I knew it.
We opted for the safer slide here!

Throwdown II

Johnny is fighting once again in the Throwdown II MMA fights at the Mackay Events Center Sept. 26th! This is Johnny's 3rd professional MMA fight. If you all remember back in April he was Fighting in the Throwdown I fight and just before Johnny's match his opponents' drug test results came back positive, so the other fighter had to forfeit. What a bummer that was. All that training, starving, and mental preparedness to go without fighting...lame. So needless to say we're stoked to have him back in the octagon with a fight this time around. He REALLY enjoys this MMA fighting so I say...Hoorah, carry on! If you want to know more about the fights click HERE for more info and a vid! If anyone needs a ticket we have a limited supply, e-mail me and I will save you one! Remember to wear your Johnny Miller T's, for those of you who bought them! Later ;)

"ROAAR" a day at the Zoo.

We went to the ZOO this past weekend with our friends Jess, Paul and Cohen. Olivia ESPECIALLY loved it this time and was saying "ROAAR" everywhere we went. It was awesome to have Johnny come with us, we LOVE when he's got spare time! We had such a blast and oh, man what a nice day it was. :) Here are some of my Faves of the day: Olivia Waving to the penguins (she loved them)
Paul and Cohen, Olivia and Cohen

Why stand in line to see the white alligator when there is a whole pile of them right outside?

Adorable Cohen

Love the Giraffes
Sleepy Tiger
Olivia Pointed and said "look" at everything! Monkey In Charge
Can't believe summer is just about over, it's days like these that I miss in the dead of winter!

One & Only Puddle

Olivia, my want-to-be-fish, found the one and only puddle around today, I turned around for a second and when I turned back this is what I saw:
Pure Elation! A Puddle! Never mind that she was fully clothed, just socks on...I love kids. If only adults could be more like kids; Give up their inhibitions and jump into the water will all of their clothes on, spill on themselves and not care, get food all over their faces and in their hair--whatev, it tasted good right? (ok that may be a bit much) I just love how kids are such a great reminder to have fun and enjoy the small stuff!
She Learned this one from Avery and Rylee!
Here is a lesson on how dishes are super fun to wash by hand, all the bubbles and water, can't get much better than that. Thanks, Olivia. What a great deal of help she is, I can't wait until she can mow the lawn!

Bones Bikes Commercial!

Johnny, Ben and CJ did a commercial for their Bones Bikes that will be airing on Comcast. Johnny's buddy Brandon has a TV show on Comcast for his gym Mushin, they show different techniques and tricks for MMA fighting, well Johnny and his bro got a spot of time during Brandon's show for their Bones cruiser/motor bikes! The bikes have been a hit and people are going crazy over them, they are soo fun to ride and I would recommend one for anyone! I'll be letting everyone know when the commercial airs, just in case you'd like to check it out!
Here is Goldy: She's adorable, but already sold.

They're getting some help with their website to get it looking spiffy, for now it looks pretty plain but it's a good resource to check out the specs on the motor bikes, etc! Check it out: http://www.bonesbikes.net/

The Miracle of Moringa

Warning: I know it's long, just read it.
If you knew me well you would know that when I find something I love and can't live without, I tend to do my own version of an infomercial on that product, and then encourage everyone to buy it too (not necessarily on purpose, it just happens). For instance, when I got my Dyson, man I love that vacuum! I told everyone how amazing it is and would even pull it out to show them all the features and give it a test run on the dog beds. I've convinced several people to purchase them just from my amazing personal infomercial, including my brother-in-law Dan and our buddy CJ, both frugal people. I am happy to say they are both happy with their purchase and love them just as much as me. Some say I should be getting paid by Dyson, I agree.

So, I continue...as some of you know, my Mom is a health-nut, she has been into nutrition, exercise and supplements for many years now and is very knowledgeable of how the body works and what it needs to stay strong and healthy. My sister Leanna is also extremely health conscious and is into whole, live, fresh and sprouted nutrition. She is also a Foot Zonologist and helps people to balance their body through signals in the feet that directly connect to the bodies DNA code in every cell. She uses natural oils to keep the body healthy and help rid the body systems of any problems that they may have. With her zoning she has helped her husband completely get rid of his debilitating migraines and helped her son with his allergies and hydrocephalus, crazy cool! (If you're interested in having a session with Leanna she takes new clients all the time and is really great at what she does. Leave me a comment if you want more info!) So why am I telling you all of this? Well, my Mom has found this drink called Zija that is made right here in Utah, in Lindon. Zija is made from a plant called Moringa, it's considered by many to be the most nutrient-rich plant ever discovered. Both my Mom and Sis have been drinking it for awhile now and agree that it is pretty great stuff, a staple really. I like to believe what they believe because they are both very smart in this particular area and I trust them. I thought I'd share this info with you just in case you're looking for something that is missing in your diet, this may be it!?

More cool Facts about Zija:
Zija is overflowing with cell-ready nutrients, antioxidants, minerals, omega oils and vital proteins. Zija is the first, and only, company to channel Moringa's dramatic nutritional properties into a refreshing, nourishing beverage to help you maintain a healthy, active lifestyle. Zija gives you balance and variety as nature intended, it includes 90 verifiable nutrients in each serving. Zija's method of capturing high levels of absorbability is so extraordinary, it's patent pending.

If you're wondering: It tastes pretty good, kind of like sweetened green tea but with a different texture, and it's only 19 calories a can!

Learn even more HERE

Hope this little tid-bit of info is found interesting to some or all. Don't forget...if you buy it let me know I may be able to add this to my list of personal infomercials! ha ha ;)
