Another Birthday!

Sarah,

I'm really glad you were able to come up for your birthday. Since I don't get to see you very often, it was really nice. You're a great big sister and you've always been so strong. You're an example to everyone in the family, and I could never be as strong as you. Thank you. I love you!

RIP Cougars

Today was a sorrowful day as my Cougs got kicked, beaten, trodden upon, picked up, and then beat back down. Wow. I never realized how much of the game was determined by one man's mentality and strength. Max just didn't have it today. No, I'm not mad at you Max, but I hope you can get through all the hate mail you are going to be receiving after tonight's ultra-important performance. Just feel comfort in the fact that I will not send you any fake white powder in an envelope, or dead, rotten things in the mail.

Ok Utah, you now have a big job ahead of you . . .

Happy Birthday J!

Giiiiirrrrrrl, I miss you like a fat kid misses cake. I'll be there in just a few days though! Have a good one without me, I'm thinking of you and love you!

Happy Anniversary!

Mom and Dad,

What a great job you've done! You have a great family, and it's all because of you and the examples you've set for us. I tell a lot of people about how wonderful you are, and if I could be half as loving, successful, kind, humble, spiritual, or talented as either of you, I am SET FOR LIFE! Thank you for being the best parents anyone could ever even wish for. And Dad, I'm grateful that you had the bright idea to steal Mom away from George, stuff her face in the snow, give her frostbite, and make her fall in love with you. Good work. I love you both!

Teensy Update

Whoa. I am bad at blogging. Just a few things to catch up on:

Thanksgiving is in a week, and I just can't wait. The whole family minus one missionary will be at home along with Cole's girlfriend Emily, and my friend Kit. Tons of people in my parents house for almost a week. I call that heaven. But, it promises to be QUITE the interesting experience . . .

TWILIGHT! Ok, I am a nerd, and I do love the books. The ladies in the family are headed out to the theater next Wednesday afternoon to watch this movie. I am so pumped, I can hardly stand it. If I had not taken a blood (money) vow not to see it early, I would be sitting in a theater, 5 p.m. the day before it comes out, watching and enjoying with my friend Anne. Bitter? Nah, not me . . .

Temple prep. For the last several months I have been getting ready to go through the temple. Big step, and I'm totally scared, but I'm also very excited at the same time!

Ok. More to come soon. Really.
