V100



"vSpring Capital announced today the 2009 class of the vSpring Capital Top 100 Venture Entrepreneurs, also known as the v100."

And yes I am going to brag, my husband is on it. You probably haven't heard of this V100, I hadn't either, but I was still proud of my Hubby for being someone that other people recognize and someone who contributes to society. Here are a few of the main points of what it means to be a V100.

"The v100 was created in 2004 by vSpring Capital as a tool to identify and recognize entrepreneurs who are most likely to experience successful venture returns with ties to the state of Utah."

"vSpring asks members of the Utah business community to nominate individuals who are most likely to lead a successful startup venture in the next five to seven years in the IT (information technology) or biotech industries."

"Those nominees who garner the most votes from their peers in this second step of the annual voting process are then elected into the v100 and become members of this ongoing community of entrepreneurial leaders. "

Lani had her baby!

Lani had her baby yesterday. His name is Connor Steven Waite. I was an idiot and forgot my camera, but my sister Lindsey had hers and has already blogged about it, so I am going to cheat and just give you the link to her blog and you can check out their cute baby boy!

Picnic

This morning my Mom and I went to the Puddle Jumper Shoe's Sale. I got some cute sandals for this summer and cute shoes for next year. Lisa came over and we all went outside for a picnic and playing on the swings. Here are some pictures.







Russ's sister Annika made that hat, is it not the cutest thing you have ever seen!
