Happy Anniversary Baby #29

Last Saturday my hubby and I celebrated 29 years of marriage.  Our day traditionally starts with a song titled "Happy Anniversary Baby" by Little River Band.  I don't think we've ever missed a year of playing that song.  It started with an old cassette tape, then a CD, and this year I played it for him on my phone from YouTube.  We decided to spend the day at Hogle Zoo.  We are both softies for cute baby animals and the weather was absolutely beautiful for just walking around.  We ate lunch at the BEAST-RO and enjoyed holding hands, talking, laughing and just being together.  A late dinner at Red Lobster and pink roses. Happy Anniversary Baby - I Love You!

When in Rome...(or Utah)

What's that old saying? "When in Rome do as the Romans"
We are in Ute territory.  Everyone is going to the Ute game and so...we went too.

It was our first ever Utah game in the famous Rice Eccles Stadium.  It was like veins of red blood flowing down every sidewalk towards the stadium.  Everyone was wearing red!  Luckily, we too had purchased our red so we fit right in.   Yes, we were in nosebleed section 54 rows up (only 6 from the top) but that's OK.  We were there and it was fun.  41-0  against No. Colorado.  Go UTAH!

Another Blog! Explanation please...

Yes, another blog. 
While Google and I would "seem" to be good friends with all of the blogs and email addresses I've started up in the past year...they wouldn't let me have my old blog back.  It was connected to an old email which is now gone.  In the past year my life has gone through 7 life changes; luckily all for the better; and so I feel a new blog fits my life now.  So...a new blog it is.  Here's the explanation of the new name. 
Janna Banana II or some other sequential type of banana name didn't really fit anymore and besides her bunch has all left the nest.  Of course there will still be blogging of awesome get togethers with the bunch, but now it's just down to 2 old dogs.  Yes, while me & hubby are aging, I'm talking about our two geriatric dogs which we've promised the bunch we'll care for in their old age (atleast for 2 more years) and of which there will probably be several pictures posted doing hilarious things the bunch are missing out on.
I've been trying to come up with a name that was unique to me for several months now. Here's how I came upon my new blog title:
I have absolutely wonderful memories of growing up in the country on a small farm outside a small Idaho town. Raiding the raspberry and the pea patches. The smell of the purple irises and lilacs in the spring. New baby goats and swinging on the old swing set. Those will always be a part of me.  But now I am a city girl. I love the diversity, the convenience, the abundance, the sounds and lights of the city.  So, while the proper spelling of "City Girl" was not available (again taken by Google) you will now understand the "misspelled country flare" I've given the title of my new blog.  
See ya 'round......
