Parade of Homes

Tyler will be spending the majority of his time over the next two weeks at the Salt Lake Parade of Homes. They fully automated home #16 and Tyler will be showing off their system in their amazing basement equipped with theatre room, basketball court, weight room and billiards room! The house is in Riverton if you want to stop by! Tyler has done such a great job expanding this company over the past year.

Here are some pics of Troy's arrival home from Costa Rica last week... as you can tell it's already a party with the kids all together!!

Puttin out the vibe .... with "ghetto" Elder Troy in the back

American Idols!!

On July 15th we went to the American Idols Concert @ the E Center in SLC. It was quite the crazy scene up there!! Tyler was one of the few 20-something guys in the crowd. We were surrounded by three groups of people 1. screaming David Archulta or "Archie" fans, 2. their parents, and 3. the occastional boyfriend / husband that got dragged to the concert. Well in our case Tyler actually was excited to go, we were pretty into the show this year!! But then when we saw the crowds... he kinda got a little embarrassed, but its ok, he played if off that he was one of the 3rd "supportvie husband" type.

Either way .. the show was good! Our favs were Michael Johns, Syesha, and the Davids!!

Rach's Detroit Trip

Rachel just took a trip to Detroit. She works for this accounting firm ...
Some of their clients are in Utah, but some are around the country and require travel. This week Rachel went to Detroit to perform an audit on a beef jerky company haha. She went on a tour of the factory and got a little more than she bargained for ... and I guess it smelled really bad!

But they do make good beef jerky, if you're into that type of thing..

Big Room all to herself



Not much to see in Detroit, this was the only picture she took - 8 Mile ... Eminem Movie I guess.

First half of July

July has been a blast so far, and it's only going to get better!! The night before the 4th of July my family spent the night up at my aunt and uncle's cabin in Heber. Tyler had been planning on being at the Parade House all day on the Fourth, but he decided to take the day off when we put together these exciting plans! It was fun being up there with the family. That night I went to the Oakley Rodeo with Steven and Uncle Todd, Katharine, Annie, & Nell. It was Steven's first Rodeo so it was alot of fun being there with him!

On the Fourth of July itself ... we started out the morning with some yummy breakfast, games, ATV rides and then went to the Lake. It wasn't the greatest day for skiing / boarding, but we got some good tubing in! Let me just say the water was just colder than anticipated and little Arizona girl needed a wet suit haha.

Then, that night we went to the one and only country club buffet dinner and fireworks! My dad was there somewhere... he just avoids the camera!

Now We've got Troy coming home from his mission in less than two weeks, and a family trip to Huntington Beach in less than three weeks! Yay for summer!!

One Down ... Three to Go!!

The Utah Valley Parade has come and gone! Tyler hung out in this media room in Lindon for about two weeks! There were tons of great contacts who walked through and were interested in Imperium. Tyler and the guys have already started preparing bids and meeting with several people they met.

On June 20, I went home to Mesa to see my best bud Carly Higginson get home off her mission! She's doing so great and I'm excited for her to move back up to Utah in a couple months. (I need to get the other pictures of just the two of us from her...) Here is a pic of Brook, Hillary, Carly and me. We were pretty dang colorful!

Now Tyler is spending his time at the Northern Wasatch Pardade of Homes. They've got 5 homes and he's rotating between Mountain Green (near Ogden) and Bountiful. He took some pictures of the houses last week when they were getting finishing touches...

We're busy but doing great! Now we're excited for the 4th of July and Rachel's family visiting Utah this week..
