My Interview

So my interview to get into the elementary education program was today. Logan was so sweet he got me a dozen roses to help ease my nerves. I really think that it went well. It was a group interview with about 8 other people and there were 3 interviewers. I was very nervous, but the way they did it made it less scary. I will know in a few weeks, and you will all be the first to know! Thanks for all the love and support!

Celebrity Sightings

While we were at the Olive Garden I think I saw an actor that served in my mission. His name is Corbin Allred.


This got us to thinking about all of the celebrities we have seen over the years. I have seen:

Kirby Heyborne at the ZCMI mall pushing a stroller.

Micheal Keaton at the Salt Lake airport when I got home from my mission.


Sydney has seen:

Larry King in the Dillard's in Provo.


Her mom was like, "Hey, it's that guy from CNN!" And Sydney was like, "ANDERSON!?!?! Where?" And her mom said, "No Larry King." And Sydney was upset that her mom had led her to believe it was someone important like Anderson Cooper.

Who have you seen? Leave a comment about the famous people you have seen.

Camera Saga Finale

After a month of Best Buy sending our camera around trying to see if they could fix it, they finally broke down and told us to come in and we will give a new camera to replace the old one. Best Buy appartently doesn't sell the camera I had anymore but they sell the upgrade for the price I paid for my old camera.

This is that camera they gave me. The only thing that I had to do was pay for an extended warranty plan, because getting a new camera fufills the other plan. So far it's the same thing only it's a 10 mega pixel instead of 7. It does have a bigger screen you can drop it from higher and there is some other cool stuff I don't know about. Plus we got it in this sweet black color.

Four-wheeling with the Gang

Sorry, it took me a while to realize my date thing was on my camera. Brenner and Joren posing with their new target.
Logan and I having a great time, notice the mud on his face!
Logan ended up becoming best buds with Legz.
Luckily I got off the four-wheeler before he started doing things like this.
Brenner did such a good job loading and throwing the clay pigeons.

First Day of School


Yesterday was my first day at Dixie and it went well. I think that I am going to enjoy my classes and my time there. One of my biggest complaints about SUU was the parking and I didnt have any problem at Dixie with that. That was nice. It's exciting to finally be taking more than one education class and I am looking forward to my semester there.

Just wanted to say I LOVE THIS!!

This thing is a miracle. I HATE to clean the tub/shower. That is the one thing that I hate most about cleaning my house. I love this thing though. Not only does it make it so much easier, but it works really well. I was able to get off some soap scum that was here when we moved in that I hadn't been able to get before.

It's Our Anniversary!

For our anniversary Logan made me his famous shrimp and broccoli alfredo. Yum! We had a very romantic candlelight dinner at home. After we ate we walked down by the river to walk off the sickness of his delicious and rich food. When we got back we ate our frozen cake for dessert. It was actually pretty yummy. The best part about all of this is Logan getting boozed up on Welch's sparkling grape juice. We had a great anniversary! Thanks to all of you who sent cards and text messages.

One year ago tomorrow

Just wanted to say...

Logan, thanks for the greatest year of my life. I love you more than ever and I always will. Thanks for loving me and making my life complete. Here's to fifty more!!! Love you baby!!!

Les Miserables

For a Pre-Anniversary present Logan took me to Les Mis at Tuacahn.

Of course, he had to. Jessie gave us some vouchers back in July, so we got a sweet deal! (You can't beat FREE TICKETS!!!) We sat in the seventh row and it was incredible. I was familiar with the music (I was a choir geek in high school) but I had never seen the show. Logan wasn't too excited about going because apparently Anisa had the sound track when he was little and, I don't know the whole story, but he had already decided he didn't like it. He was disappointed that they sang the whole time, I was not. Those people are SO TALENTED!!! Besides being creative, that is the talent I most envy...to be able to sing like that.

When we got to our seats they were completely infested with wasps. If any of you know me very well, or at least when I was younger, I am deathly afraid of bees/wasps. I had to sit still while they crawled on my feet and tried to get up my pant leg. YIKES! Logan was so good to help me stay calm, and we actually didn't see anyone get stung, which is amazing considering the amount of the wasps.

We had a great time and I would just like to say THANK YOU JESSIE!!!! We all know Logan and that I would have never got to go without you!

New make-up

So I have been running on fumes, so to speak, in the make-up department for a while. It's been okay really since I rarely wear it to work because it will just sweat off in the extreme heat and humidity of a dry cleaner. Logan decided to take me to get some the other day though, I guess he didn't like the idea of me going to school without it. Afraid someone might find out I belong to him or something!

I usually wore the Soft Finish but it was seeming a little light so I wanted a new color. They didn't have one that matched very well so the lady told me about the Superbalanced Makeup. It's very cool. It absorbs oil where it needs to and moisturizes where my skin is dry. I got some mascara too. Such a sweet hubby!!!
