Gooo JAZZ!

On Wednesday, one of our friends called us and asked us if we wanted to go to the Jazz game with them... Of course we said YES! We dropped our kids off to their Grandma to have some Grandma Time (Thanks GINNY!!) and we were off to the game. The poopy part is that our seats were not together with our friends... they were a couple of rows down from us as we were on the VERY TOP as you can tell from this picture... its like watching miniature people running back and forth on the court. During the 2nd quarter, we ditched our seats and met down with our friends that has 2 extra empty seats next to them...

Starting of the game where they introduced the players on the court.
Dave and I (I look like crap... I still have that blastin cold but it didn't stop me from going to the game!) We are at the VERY top as you cant see other fans behind us.


Not sure who is taking the shot... I know for sure its our team... We played with the L.A. Lakers... and yes, Kobe Bryant played that night. Our fans does NOT like him...

At last... Our winning score!! It was a very intense last few minutes of the game! SO happy that we won!!


** On our way back to the parking lot and as we were pulling out, we saw L. Tom Perry and his wife walking back to their car! He must have been to the game too! It was a fun night! Thanks Jason and Melissa for the tickets!!!

6th Picture

I've been tagged by my friend Jess... I'm suppose to get into my 6th folder and get into 6th picture and explain about it...
We have been renovating our home since Fall of 2005 (WOW its been 3 1/2 years!!) We are SO super excited that we (well lets just say Dave that did most of the work) finally FINISHED laying out all the ROCK onto the house! We still have many more to work on at least for now that all the hard and time consuming part is all over!! So this is what we have done so far!

I TAGGED: Holli, Vanessa, Mom, Marrian, Staci, Janika...

Bad Case of the Yuckiness

Aahhh... I'm getting sick of this!! (no pun intended) For the last week and still is... EVERYONE is getting sick... All of the combination of cough, running nose, sore throat, headaches, belly-ache, vomiting (sorry too much info.), fevers, goopy-eyes and many more to name! We're pretty much lived on over the counter drugs till we finally get around to be back to our normal self. I CANNOT wait for warmer weather to come so we all can enjoy some FRESH air!!

By the way....

Happy BLOGSVARY!!! Yup that's right! Its been ONE year today since I've joined the blogging bandwagon... Here's many more to come!!!

goofy kids

I was making dinner for the kids and all I hear both of them laughing at each other... This is what I find them doing... They dumped out the cookie cutters out of the clear plastic bucket and put their face in it and squished it. It was a funny sight to see!


I love it when the kids are able to entertain each other and come up with funny, yet creative way to keep them busy. They make me laugh.

Ready... Get set... GOOO!!!

I finally got Coleman on video playing with his cars... Boy... that kid loves it!!

He's not even 2 yet... he sure knows what to do!

Time Out for Women

Lets rewind back a little bit here... Okay in Christmas time... its a tradition for Dave's family to have the holiday poppers on our dinner plate and we would cross our arms and hold one to each other's poppers and PULL at the same time where all the poppers can pop at the same time and we would get a fun surprises inside the poppers... My awesome mother-in-law with many talents hand made them and filled in surprises for each person. Well, all the men got tickets to go see the MONSTER TRUCKS show and the ladies got to go to TIME OUT FOR WOMEN!!! Wahoo! I love fun surprises!!
Okay now lets move on forward... Time Out for Women finally came and went! It was so much fun and it was a much needed spiritual boost for us. The event started Thursday night and again Friday morning till about 4 o'clock in the afternoon. On Thursday, my mother in law came up and we went to the evening section (Katie came up the following day) and we had some AWESOME singers and speakers... Michael McLean and Kenneth Cope both sang that night and Brad and Debi Wilcox and Chris Stewart spoke to us... during the break... I came up to Brad and told him to read my lips and mouth out the words "YOU DID GREAT!!" and gave me the BIGGEST hug ever! During his talk (he was the first to speak and the break was after) he used to teach 6th grade at an elementary school back in the day and he had a deaf little girl in his class and she came up to him and asked him in her broken deaf English language... "WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS HAPPY?! DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM??" He told her to read his lips and said "Yes, we all have problems but don't let our problems take our positive attitude away." Basically his talk really inspired me and I had to come up to him to tell him that. He was SO excited and was so enthralled that I was able to catch everything he said during his presentation. He and his wife are the far the most hilarious couple ever! Love it! After the show... we talked with Michael McLean and Kenneth Cope very briefly and had a quick photo shoot :) The best thing of all is that we got to sit in the front row and sit with all the well known LDS authors and couple of General Authorities and their wives... Sister Oaks sat by us that night! Ahh the benefits of being deaf. LOVE it!


Ginny and I with Micheal McLean!!

Kenneth Cope!!!

(Pictures doesn't do justice... its from my phone, I didn't think we're allow to have cameras but we can! The light from my camera is pretty blinding...)

On Friday, Katie (my sister in law) made it up with us and so GLAD she made it. We all got a cute FREE bag!!! We had Emily Watts, Wendy Ulrich, Michael Wilcox, and Emily Freeman to talk with us and Kenneth Cope sang a lot of songs to us... It was such a fun, fun, fun day! Thanks GINNY!!!
