It's been 1 Year

Grandma Margie passed away a year ago today. We still miss her like it was yesterday. We love you Mom and Grandma!

Viva Las Vegas!

Last weekend we headed to Las Vegas for a visit with Kacey and Kevin. There also just happened to be a Utah football game in town too. We headed out to Lake Mead before the game and then squeezed in another trip to the lake the next day too.

I want to know who vacations in Vegas without packing swimming suits? The temp. was in the 90's swimming? really? late October??......so I didn't pack suits, but the girls had fun swimming in their clothes anyways. I did go the next day to buy swimming suits, only to find racks of coats!!! yes coats and no swimming suits.

Thanks Kacey and Kevin for the fun weekend. Kacey is 38 weeks pregnant and such a trooper for taking us boating twice! She only had a few contractions the next day.

Bourbon couldn't wait for the boat to stop on a beach...he was always the first one out of the boat.

Kevin our Captain

Our pose!

Madison

Bourbon loves his boat rides!

Bourbon made sure nobody drowned....he has a little anxiety issues...so cute!

Yes she is known as butt crack girl!

Alexandra! YIPEE!

Go UTES!

Off to the game....The Utes beat unlv!

"Lock and load!"

This was the girls first game in a couple of years....I still can't believe I am raising girls who don't like football!! Something is soooooo wrong with my parenting skills!

Fall is Here

I tried to scan in a pic of Alexandra when she was a baby during the fall...but it isn't working! ugh!

Madison.....oh that Madison

Just another conversation with Madison! She is CRAZY!

Madison: Okay everyone I want you to vote where we are going to go for dinner. T-dawg (a nickname Scott calls me) where do you want to go?

Me: Um....Mexican food!

Madison: S-Dawg? What are you voting for? (in reference to Scott....a name Ive never heard or said before)

I couldn't stop laughing!!!

Real Salt Lake

Last week we were able to go to a private practice for The Real Salt Lake soccer team. It was a VIP event. They fed us lunch, gave us gifts and then we got to meet the players. I have never been a fan of soccer....but it was fun! Madison picked the guy with dreads as her favorite player. Probably because he was easy to spot...and not to mention very cute! Ü

Disneyland

Ho Hum!

Oh summer is over and its cold outside! How come we didn't ease into fall/winter? I am so sad to say I didnt grow 1 pumpkin this year. Really, my garden kind of sucked! lol! Lots of tomatoes, peppers and a some rosemary. My basil died....bugs at my zucchini plant, no cucumbers grew, my thyme died because its now in shade thanks to the fast growing tree....and obviously no pumpkins! Come to think about this growing season....my flower beds didn't look fabulous either. So I think its time to really hire that landscape consultant. Then if things go wrong....i can blame him/her and not me! Ü

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday Jorrey and Riley! woot! woot! y'all are 16!!!

Happy Birthday Kacey and Kelly

Happy Birthday to my little sisters!

Alexandra Rocks!

Guess who was the student of the week in August? Miss Alexandra! Way to go girl!

Go UTES!

Here are the latest pic from the Utes game against Louisville Isnt this a great pic....its a touchdown! (lame photographer!)

Eddie Wide is playing now in place of hurt RB Matt Asiata :(

These are 2 friends that sit by us......well they want to be friends...lets just say neither one has actual tickets by us, their tickets are somewhere else in the stadium, they have found their way by us. The boy is 15ish...his family sits 20 rows behind us....and she has tickets in the muss.

JD, Scott and the boys

Here is the gang.....we have so much fun at the games. I will be soooo sad when the season is over.

Chargers Football

The highlight of Scott's weekend was going to the Chargers Dolphins game on Sunday. I stayed home so Scott could have a boys weekend. (what a nice wife) Eric Weddle gave Scott a couple of tickets for the game. Scott didnt know who to cheer for. Eric plays for the Chargers ...however Scotts favorite team is the Dolphins. I think it worked out in the end...both teams have guys that used to play for the Utes. Eric actually had his first interception resulting in a touchdown during this game. Scott sat with his family and they actually invited us down to stay at their house if WE ever go back to a game!

Sean Smith #24 was drafted this year from Utah .....love that pose! (okay it was an action shot!way cool though!)

Eric Weddle #32 Drafted from Utah 2005

Eric Weddle is one cool cat! and very CUTE!
