BYU v. Airforce

This last weekend we headed down to Colorado Springs to watch the Airforce game with 2 of my brother in laws and there friend Robbie. I was pretty excited to get out of the house...however BYU could not pull off a win. There were so many things that went wrong it wasn't even funny. It was a very disappointing day to be a cougar fan. However, the 9/11 tribute was awesome and they did a lot of spotlights of people who were closely involved with everything that happened 9 years ago. I'm so thankful for all the men and women who sacrifice there lives everyday for the freedoms I get to enjoy.

We're hoping for a more successful season but they are young so who knows. But it was a fun little getaway and it was good to see some family.

Laboring on Labor Day

The title speaks for itself. We don't have a day off from school or basketball today! I think people in Grand Junction are confused about what Labor day is about....it doesn't mean "to labor on this day" it means NOT TO! Nonetheless, we have missed out on the Onion day's feastivities but hey it's not like we haven't missed the last couple of years anyhow. We did make it back to Santaquin for the weekend though.
We....
* got back Friday evening and decided to go back to our old stompin' grounds at PHS and watch a little football....the team lost (figures) but I still have high hopes that if our kids decide to play football there it will turn around for the good.

* went bowling Friday night after the game with my brother Mikey and his girlfriend Kiera, my sister Keila, and my bro-in-law Mason and his two kids Drew and Barrett....I won...just sayin'!

*went to lunch with our good friends and got to catch up a bit! Love them!

* went to the carnival in Payson to look at the booths and Blake played a football throwing game and won a Kurt Warner jersey.

*watched the Cougars win Washington while enjoying chicken nuggies and a bunch of treats with our family!

*went to church with my family and had a delicious dinner and awesome Chocolate Cherry Cake to top it off before heading home.

Overall, it was a good weekend. It's so nice to only live 3 1/2 hours away and if we need a break from Colorado living we can always head home!
