DaN mY MAN!

OK, OK, OK,.....I know he is ONE HOT STUD...just don't lick the screen ok?!!! I just want you all to know what a BABE I'm married to.

On Friday, April 25th, is our 17th Wedding Anniversary!

We have actually been "together" for 20 years! Can you believe that? Where did ALL that time go???

Dan & I met through a friend back in...yes, the 80's....1987 to be exact! I was in Aggiettes at Utah State and Dan was living in the PiKapp HouSe on Campus. To make a LONG but BEAUTIFUL story short....we hung out a ton, went to parties, listened to music, danced at XENON every weekend, went on drives, studied and became BEST Friends! We got along awesome and had a lot in common! Dan always treated me like a princess!!...(even though I did NOT always act like one)!! After 3 years of incredible memories we decided to make it REAL!!

We were married in the Logan Temple on Thrusday April 25, 1991. I will never forget that magical day! The happiest day of our live's!

Our "song" back then was by Depeche Mode "Somebody"..... to this day, I still love to listen to it and watch our wedding video that Dan's mom made for us. My kids think we look like nerds and that our hair and clothes were "butt-ugly"......hahahahaha! WHATEVER! Dan "the man" and I were ALWAYS STYLIN! Don't you love the floral vest & bow-tie under Dan's tux? SEXY!

Anyway, I thank my Heavenly Father every day for my incredible, hardworking, selfless, sexy, happy, motivated hubby!!!

Happy Anniversary Sweetheart! Let's see if we can survive 20 more!

NotHiN LiKE tHe 80's!

Ok, if any of you know me, you know that I LOVE music! I love almost ALL kinds...well, ok I don't listen to Country because it has been proven to make you brain-dead! ... (However, I do think Carrie Underwood is amazing! ;)

So anyhoo....I was messing around with my playlist and I decided to have a little "flash-back" fun! YOu know, Depeche, Duran-Druan, The Cult and of course U2!!!! I could have made my playlist 100 songs long but I chose just a few of my favorites back in the "day"....hahahahaha! They are also bands we saw LIVE in CoNceRT!

One of my favorite things to do was go to concerts...in fact, it still is! We just saw U2 and Depeche Mode when they came in December of 2006. If we were going to be here in July we would be going to the Police at USANA!!!! How cool is that! Maybe we will have to put off moving until after we see STING!

Well, get on my playlist and listen to the awesome tunes of my "youth" ;) I am sure you will enjoy it as much as I do!!! ROCK ON!!

I LoVe AmERiCaN IdOL!!!

Ok Y'all, (notice i've got my Texan accent goin already)... did you watch AmEriCaN IdOl last night?.... LOVED IT!
Can you believe they had that "hoochie-mamma" Mariah Carey be the "artist of choice" last night....well, me either! ;) hahahaha!!

Anyhoo, as far as the Idol's go, I really think it will come down to the two David's! David Archuleta was fantastic as usual. The judges absolutly love him and so does everyone else. Like Paula said ( "David you could sing the phone book and we would think it was incredible").... NOT that I think anything that Paula says is even credible....but, she is right on this one! .....( I actullay think Paula is on CrAcK or a bit LiquOrEd up at every show...she just babbles like an Idiot....and says "your a star...or you are brilliant".....WHATEVER PAULA!!! ) :)

David Cook was absoulutly phenomenol AGAIN last night! He has the stage presence already and the unique creativity of a talanted "rock-star"........the only thing I like about him better than David Archuleta is his maturity....he is a bit sexy!!!

I think Carley rocks....love her voice but she will NOT win. I think Brook is at best "fair"...and Christie...YUCK!......The cute black girl....what is her name????...she has a great voice but will NOT win either. And Dread-Lock-Boy....I don't mind him but he is not ExCePTioNaL!

So, there is my IDOL crituque! Hope y'all enjoyed it and hope you were all lucky enough to get to watch and vote!

SoCceR sTarTS!

The SnOw FINALLY melted off of the playing fields last week! But, we were NOT able to play any games because the fields were too wet and muddy!...SO, we started this week and are making up 3 games from the previous week! ;) And what is better than statrting off with a WIN against these MoNStEr 15 yr olds!!! Mckall played way aggerssive and scored 2 of the three goals! Mckalls team won the game....3 to 2. It was exciting to see all the great foot work and aggerssiveness of the girls!

This was Mckall's 1st goal...she had a sweet breakaway and ran 3/4 of the field length to score! She was even tripped (sorry the pic was a bit out of focus)... she recovered quick, got control and scooooorrrrreeeeeeddddddddddddd!!!

Mckall was the defender in this pic...she saved this goal!

This is Emily Davis, their goaleeeeee!! She is awesome and has some seriously LONG LEGS!
Good JOB LOGAN LYNX!

**The closest book to me was NOTHING excititng! It is The UTAH BOATING GUIDE! :)

On page 123, 5th sentence it reads...................."In the late summer it does tend to get shallow, but it is a great place to waterski, wakeboard, scoot about on a watercraft, or fish in those weedy areas where the big fish hang out." (the book is talking aobut Manuta Reservoir....you know the one little lake in Sardine canyon?)!!!! :)

Actually this IS way exciting to think that spring and summer are right around the corner and we will be skiing and wakeboarding and sunning our lilly-whites!!! ;)

I am so excited for BOATING WEATHER!!!!!

BaSebAlL aNyONe?

If you are wondering why I never have time to update my blog....it's because I am constantly at another GAME!!!

This time we were in Twin Falls Idaho and the GAME is BASEBALL!!! Alec's team played 4 games. They WON only 1 got killed only one and the other two were actually exciting close one's! I think Baseball is my LEAST favorite. However, I do still enjoy cheering and taking pictures for the team!

This last weekend was terribly COLD.....like in the 30's and the wind chill making it seem even more frigid! I felt bad for the boys playing..they were jumping up and down and drinking hot-chocolate and wrapping up in blankets between innings! Anyhoo.....we had a fun time staying at the hotel, swimming, eating out and cheering at the games!

These next few pics are some great shots of "ball-calls", missed pop-fly's, and should-have-been-out's......oh, and great facial expressions!

GO GRIZZ!
