A Wicked Fun Weekend

We were lucky enough to have really good seats and it was awesome to be up close to see the details of the costumes and set.




I was obviously excited to be at the Jazz game and although we were surrounded by Lakers fan/drunk Jazz fans we had a great time!

We had such a fun weekend with our families. Saturday we went to "Wicked" with my family and it was incredible! Even the boys admitted to enjoying it, so it was fun for all :) I laughed so hard I started crying at some of the parts and the singing was exceptional! That same night we were given some free Jazz tickets to go to the playoff game against the Lakers. Josh and I are determined that we are bad luck for the Jazz because they got killed, but we still had a blast!

Almost Done!

Well I officially just attended my last class at USU. To say I am excited would be a huge understatement! Now I just have 6 finals next week, which is a little bit of a downer, but what can you do? Josh and I both graduate next Saturday and then we are moving on the bigger and better things!

Sick little Aliza

Well our precious little niece Aliza had been sick for a few weeks, so my sister took her into the doctor. After some tests, she was diagnosed with Diabetes. My brother in law is in medical school so he had a pretty good idea what was wrong before she went in, but for the rest of us it was out of the blue. She is the cutest 6 year old alive, and it breaks my heart to know she will be insulin dependent for the rest of her life. My sister is an absolute ROCK... if I had half the amount of faith, patience and endurance she has I would be in excellent shape. She is such an example to me! Her and my brother in law are in charge of counting all of the carbohydrates Aliza eats and then making sure she gets the right amount of units of insulin. It is life changing for their family, but they are so strong and amazing I know it will be alright. Liza is such a sweetie and likes practicing giving everyone shots :) We love you guys!

Archie

Last American Idol season I absolutely fell in "love" with David Archuleta. Not a creepy, weird kind of love, but I think he is absolutely adorable and has such an incredible voice. So when Josh's mom, who also has a big crush on the boy :), announced she bought tickets to his concert, Josh and I were all over that! So Friday night, we drove down from Logan, and along with thousands of 12 year old girls who screamed relentlessly, saw David's awesome performance. We were lucky enough to go with one of Bobbie's friends who knows David because she works at the Murray High Seminary, and she was giving us all of the gossip she knew :) We were extremely close to getting back stage passes, but it never worked out, but we didn't care because we had such a fun night! Thanks again Bobbie!

Utah- This is the Place

I apologize for the lame title, but it will have to do. Well after months of waiting and weeks of pondering, praying and thinking about our future we have decided that Josh is going to the University of Utah for law school! We honestly were planning on heading out of state and having a fun adventure with just the two of us, but when it came down to it we both just felt like it would be best for our little family to stay in Utah. The major decision was between BYU and the U, since Josh got into both, but The U turned out to be a better fit for Josh. We are so excited to be able to stay close to family and not go into very much debt. I never thought I would say this as a True Aggie through and through...but go Utes!

Rascal Flatts

I was sitting home by myself on Wednesday afternoon when I saw a commercial for the Rascal Flatts concert which was the next day. I thought to myself...man that would be an awesome concert to go to! A few minutes later my sister in law, Lianna, called me and said she had an extra ticket and asked if I wanted to go! It was such a great show and those guys crack me up! It was one of the best concerts I have been to and I feel so spoiled that I got to go. Thanks Lianna... you are the greatest!


Jessica Simpson was the opening act. She did a pretty good job, but I couldn't understand what she was saying half the time.

6's Tag

Well, my sister-in-law Natalie tagged me to post the 6th picture in the 6th folder of pictures on our computer (or something to that effect). Unfortunately I came up with this picture. This is at my Mom's birthday dinner at Maddox. My mom asked me to light the birthday candles on her birthday pie. Little does she know that I have an EXTREME fear of matches, and it took all of my courage to get the candles lit. Josh, of course, was snapping pictures and he captured this look of terror on my face. I hesitated to post this for fear of excessive embarrassment, but I thought it would be appropriate to document my fear for future generations.

P.S. If you look closely, you will see smoke coming from my hand and that is because I was in the process of throwing the match (which was still lit) onto the floor because the flame was getting too close to my hand. Gol...I am such a wuss

I tag Brooklyn, Heather, Jessica, Addie, April and anyone else who would like to show embarrassing pictures!
