Tyler, Raquel and Melody were so cute at the wedding these are a few of my favorite photo's of them.

One of my most favorite candid moments was when we all turned around and Tyler was running with his pants down around his ankles!

Mr & Mrs Brynat

The day was a blur but when we were finally standing side by side looking at one another everything slowed down for just a moment and then it was all over in a blink of an eye. It didn't seem like we were finally married but I am now a Bryant.

"Going Postal!!!"

I have been so busy the last few weeks. If I'm not at work then I am busy with wedding details. I am wore out!!!!! My project last week was to get my invitations done and sent out however it is Monday and they are still not out!!!!! I am going crazy it seems that every time I turn around there is another problem with them. Ashley has been great on helping me get them done, if it weren't for her I would still be addressing them.

I went to the post office today to finally get them sent out but when I went to buy my stamps and get them sent out they told me that I would have to pay $1 an invite. I just about broke down. That is craziness. They said that they had implemented some new regulations and I would have to be charged for there thickness and for their weight. I now understand why they coined the saying "going postal" I felt like screaming and crying all at the same time. I decided to back up a step and find a different way to get them out or maybe I'll just give in and get it over with. All I know is that I will deal with it tomorrow. So, if you are reading this and wondering if I forgot to invite you well now you know, your invitation is sitting in the back seat of my car waiting to get mailed out!!!

The Wedding is on the Move

So there has been a HUGE change to the wedding!!!! When I called to finalize some last minute details with my wedding location, Historic Wheeler Farm, I found out that two other events were going on at the same time. A huge family reunion and a High School dance! Let's just say I freaked out!!! I quickly looked into some other location and stumbled into a great place. There was just only problem, the same day of my wedding was yet another family reunion which had booked the other half of the building so I had to make a really tough decision to either keep looking for a new location or change the date of my wedding. I sent out emails and made some phone calls but in the end I had to make the really tough decision to move my wedding ahead one day! Now my wedding is taking place at Lone Peak Park in Sandy Utah on August 29th. I am so excited for the wedding. I am just starting to get nervous about it coming up so quickly. I'm afraid that I won't get everything done that I want to get do.

Moving Up!

I'm moving up in the world! I have left my job at The Breeze and moved on to Snowbird Ski Resort. I actually don't work up at the resort but in a nice brand new office at the base of the canyon. I work in Group Sales and Marketing. I work with 4 National Sales Managers. Groups Sales brings in all the big corporate, associations, and groups to the resort. I organize everything from VIP room's to organizing group meetings and events. I love it! Snowbird has gone green so we recycle everything, reducing our energy use and paper use. Everything is done electronically, learning all the new software is challenging but I love it! I have only been there a few weeks and I feel like I have only scraped the surface of everything I need to learn but I feel like it's a place that I can enjoy waking up every morning and going to work. I stay so busy and the people are great to work with.The resort is only a 15 minute drive up the canyon and it is beautiful. They have 3 different lodges and about 9 different restaurants. I have decided to update ALL my winter gear and ski gear for the upcoming ski season. I can't wait to ski "The Best Snow in the World". Well, stay tuned to hear the latest updates and hear about my new adventures with Snowbird.

Save the Date

We have finally picked a date and a location. I hope to see you all August 30th at Wheeler Farm in Murray, Utah. I have made Save the Date cards and sent them out to everyone. I didn't realize that I had pick Labour Day weekend to get married, but at least for our Anniversary we can have a long weekend!

Fatal plane crash in Billings Heights

Early this morning my mom & brother woke up to a huge explosion that shook the whole house. A USPS plane crashed into a warehouse just down from where my parents live. If you look at the map below it the street right above Jerry Lane where the plane crashed. It scattered mail everywhere. I posted the story from the Montana News Station Below.

Click on the map above to see the video!

A plane went down in the Billings Heights early on Friday morning.
The crash happened off Main Street near United Rentals Highway Technology, which is in on Jerrie Lane in the Billings Heights. All Billings firefighters and AMR units were called to the scene.
Battalion Chief Ed Reigele confirmed that the male pilot is the only known fatality.
The twin turbo-prop aircraft, carrying U.S. mail, went down shortly after departing from Logan International Airport.
Official are advising people not to touch any debris that may have fallen on their properties. If you have found debris, you should call (406)657-8200 for more information.
If people find mail in the Heights call (406)657-5700. They are finding mail in a wide scatter area. It includes an area from the crash site to Lake Elmo to Skyview High School and Morocco Drive. A total of 5,000 pounds of mail was on the plane. They have not been allowed on site yet to recover. This plane was a regular mail flight.
The Billings Fire Department along with Airport Fire & Rescue responded and when crews arrived on scene and found a building next to united rentals engulfed in flames.
The biggest obstacle for fire crews was the jet fuel on board the aircraft, since the plane had just taken off, which is why airport fire was on hand to help battle the blaze with a special foam retardant.
Fire, police, AMR, NorthWestern Energy, the Montana Department of Transportation and U.S.P.S. are on the scene while Billings Police are on scene investigating the crash.
Main Street is open to traffic but the streets Key City Drive and Jerrie Lane are closed.
The last time a plane crashed in Billings was December of 1992 when a jet hit the school district warehouse building.
Watch a full report as Nikki Laurenzo reports LIVE from the scene on Montana This Morning (Billings viewing area only) and you can also watch extended footage of the accident on our web site.

Evacuation!!!!

Last Friday at about 10 o'clock in the morning the buildings fire alarm started going off. At first we just thought it was another test but then they announced over the loud speaker that it was not a drill and we needed to immediately evacuate the building. So everyone started to head down stairs. Since the building had had a practice drill a few months ago we all knew what to do and headed for our assigned meeting spots to check in with the person in charge of our offices, Sheri. As the flow of people started to die down we noticed our sales manager, Jan was no where to be seen. I had to track down someone from the building to go back in the building to check if Jan had made it out. When he came back out they told me that Jan was not in the office so everyone started to search for him. Finally the owner, John showed up and said that he saw him walking down to the parking garage apparently he had gone to his car and left.

The FBI finally told us that there was a white powder discovered in a piece of hate mail. The building was going to be shut down form anywhere to an hour to the whole day. So, people began to leave and find something to occupy the time while we waited to find out an update. However, there was still one person we had forgotten about. Our engineer who had gone to the roof to do some work on the stations new satellite. Me & Sheri quickly walked over to the FBI and told them the situation. Eventually everyone got out safe. The building was closed for about 2 1/2 hours before they let us back in. I think it is agreed upon by the other building tenants that from now on the FBI should start opening their mail in the afternoon around 3 o'clock so if there is an issue we can all just call it a day.


Below is the story from KSL (the local news station) website.

Employees who work in the FBI building in downtown Salt Lake were evacuated this morning because of the possible threat of a deadly chemical. A federal employee discovered the suspicious substance while opening mail. The building was reopened this afternoon, but for a time this morning, HAZMAT teams were the only ones allowed in so they could remove the white, powdery substance that was discovered inside an envelope on the 12th floor.

"The fire alarm went off. No one indicated that it was a drill, and so we took it seriously and we came outside the building," explained Ken Cluff, who works in the FBI building. Mark Dean, who also works in the building, said, "It doesn't appear to be a fire. There's no smoke or anything like that. But they don't seem to act like it's some kind of a drill. They seem to act, like, serious about it." It wasn't a drill, and it definitely wasn't a fire. It was instead a suspicious substance found by a federal employee who was opening incoming mail. The mail was opened in a specialized container, which is procedure for all mail that comes in. The employee was wearing a specialized hood and gloves to protect himself from hazardous material when he noticed white powder fall out of a piece of hate mail.

"The employee immediately followed procedure. [He] withdrew from there, took the gloves off and immediately went in, closed the door and contained the mail to the specific filter and vent that works this type of material," explained FBI spokesman Juan Baccera. Scott Freitag, spokesman for the Salt Lake City Fire Department, said, "The employee was reported to not have any powder on him whatsoever, as he was using his procedures to use the device to open mail." Authorities say those procedures ensured the safety of all of the employees inside the building at the time. "We feel we have contained it. We feel we have followed our safety procedures as they are outlined," Bacerra said. The powder-type substance was taken out of the building by HAZMAT crews for testing. The FBI says results of those tests will not come back for 48 hours. The agency is also looking into where the piece of mail came from.

Oh, just a little note to Ashley, sorry about Raquel eating dog food for the first time!!!!!

Here come's the Bride!!!

So, if you haven't heard it's official, we are engaged!!! Everyone has been asking me what I am thinking of doing for the wedding so here's my thoughts:

Date: We are thinking August but haven't set anything yet....we will keep you posted

Where: Utah

Theme: Rustic, Fallish

Colors: Brown and Green

Flowers: Maybe sunflowers and daisies (they are my favorites)

Food: 3 different types of warm soups, with several kinds of breads and rolls. I also have 3 great recipes for some dips and spreads. And my favorite salad, Strawberries, dried cranberries, spinach and lettuce, topped with a strawberry vinaigrette dressing. Yummy, Yummy!!!

Favors: Carmel Apples

....I want simple and elegant but warm and friendly....

I really want to find an old barn (but in good condition) and use it but, I have no idea where to find one and I really want to keep things reasonable. I guess my Montana roots are stick'n with me. I think that's all I've got planned out but even those ideas may change. Let me know if you have any ideas for me cause I need them!!!

Unbelievable!!!

I have had heard stories similar to the one I'm about to tell you but I just thought they were made up.... Once upon a time I acquired a broken guitar from a friend, Ashley, which I was planning on passing it one to my little brother but just never got around to repairing it. So, one day Hughstan asked me if he could post it on craigslist.com to see what someone would trade for it. Not really thinking much about because I thought, who would want a broken guitar. However, someone responded to the ad, a girl who was looking to trade for a 20' flat screen TV. I thought sure why not it's better then a broken guitar. So we made the trade.......

..... Once we got the TV we decided to trade for something we needed a lot more a washer and dryer. I had a big stack of laundry piling up and I was getting sick of either bumming off friends or spending $30 at a laundry mat. It was a long shot but I decided to give it a try so I posted an ad on craiglist.com saying I would trade the TV for a washer and dryer. I didn't actually think anyone would respond, but they did!!!!! I was truly amazed. So, this weekend I got my very first washer and dryer for FREE just by trading up!!! They are practically brand new, they are about 3 or 4 years old but hardly used. I've never been more excited to do laundry! I've been washing everything that I can put in the washer!

..........Disarray Tour..........

Me and Berkley went to the LifeHouse concert March 3rd at The Depot. It was a awesome, even though we stood in line for two hours in the cold. It was so worth it we were one of the first people in line so when we finally got into the venue we were right at the edge of the stage. We could reach out and touch them. We got tonz of great pics. You can check them out at http://www.myspace.com/jaynesimmons The Clip above is from LifeHouse's official website we are so close to the stage that you can barely see us but the place was Sold Out! Thanks Berk for a great time.

All in a days work.....

I've been working for Capital Broadcasting for two years in April. I love the people I work with. It's like my own work family. We have two station 97.9 The Breeze, which plays Smooth Jazz and KLO 1430AM which is Conservative Talk Radio. I handle everything from Promotions to Accounting. We are a small company so you learn to juggle several jobs. It keeps you busy!!!

Hughstan & Jayne

Hughstan and I met one summer about 5 years ago while working together. We spent the summer camping, hiking, playing basketball, and discoving every park in the area. We've been together ever since. We've overcome many hard times with each other by our sides and continue to grow closer together everyday.
