Bode


Bode is now 6 months old. He is getting so big!! I get to see Bode every weekend as go watch BYU kick some butt. :) Can't believe how big he is getting. His smile is contagious and he has 2 little teeth on the bottom of his mouth. I just can't wait to hear him talking. He's such a cutie and I can't get enough of him.

BYU vs. UCLA

59-0
Oh yes, you read that right. 59-0, zilch, nada! The only thing I can say about that is "YEAHBABY!!!" BYU did such a great job with the defense holding the line and offense pushing for a touchdown. Two times when BYU punted the ball to UCLA, they fumbled the ball, we caught it and in the next play we got a touchdown. What a game! :)

BYU vs. Washington

28-27
WOW ... this was an AMAZING game! BYU beat the Washington Huskies by 1 point. 1 POINT!! We were on the edge of our seats the last 2 minutes hoping and praying we could hold them off. But, then Washington got a touch down in the last 10 seconds of the game. We just knew that it was going to be a tied game or maybe go into overtime. (I still don't know if it's a non-conference game would the game go into overtime or end in a tie??) But, as Washington went for the point after, we "BLOCKED THAT KICK!" Oh it was so exciting!!! The Cougars ate the Dogs right up! :)

Back to School.......

Well, school started up again a couple weeks ago. I'm finishing my degree in Business Management. (Let's hope I don't change my major again!) This semester I'm taking 2 classes: Accounting and Economics. Yes, it's ok to cringe .... I do every week. One thing I like about going to the Community College (besides the fact that it's MUCH cheaper) is the instructors know that those going to school at night are typically ones that work full-time and/or have a family to take care of. So they are more understanding that things come up and are willing to work around any schedule problems. Unless it's just me, but majority of the night instructors at the community college have been in the field they are teaching in for a long time. I like when they use real life situations within their teaching. Makes it more exciting than reading chapters in a book. :)

BYU vs. Northern Iowa

41-17

This past weekend BYU played against Northern Iowa and we won!!! It was a good game and so much fun watching my brother, Travis (#74) "pancake" his opponents! What a great way to start off the season. :) I screamed so much, I thought I was going to lose my voice. Can't wait for the next game this coming weekend!

Breaking Dawn

Okay, if you have not read the Twilight Series, you are missing out on one of the greatest romance, adventure, and thrilling books I have ever read! At first, I thought "A book about a vampire?? Whatever, it's going to be so dumb!" Boy was I WRONG! I absolutely love these books. I read the first 3 books in about 4 days while on vacation in Utah. I thought it took forever for the 4th book (Breaking Dawn) to come out. When it finally did .... I was once again a little book worm.

These books kept me intrigued every single page. Now if I can only find my Edward. :)

Boot Camp



For the past 2 months, Jessica and I have been doing boot camp. We go one hour a day, two days a week. It's a lot of fun and so well worth it! (Granted I only say it's "fun" when the workout is over.) Our trainer isn't the typical drill sergent, yelling in your face all the time kind of trainer. I don't like that! She keeps us motivated and makes us want to work harder. However, there are times I want to glare at her and tell her to "GO AWAY!" but when you see results, you can't help but want to keep going and working more.

I will say I HATE burpies. A burpie is when you start in a standing position, then you put your hands on the ground shoulder length apart, then kick your legs back, then bring your legs back up, and stand up. Then you repeat! Nope ... don't like this one.
