Gym Girl

Warning this is just a post to vent!
So I've been going to the same morning class for way too long to keep track and have kind of stayed in the same spot in the room. Last week another girl decided she liked that spot, no big deal she got there first so I just set up on the other side of the room.

Today I was the second person there and nobody was in the original spot so I put my stuff there then along comes horse face (I know that's mean but she has a really cute body just a long face with big teeth and I'm mad so I can be mean) She puts her stuff practically on top of mine!!! Note it's a big room and so far there are only three people and lots of other places to go. I thought she has to be kidding. As the class was about to start I asked her "Are you staying right here" She just snarled "I was planning on it" what a @#$#@Q@%@# So I moved. I should have stood my ground but as the class progressed she moved more towards the middle (I think she likes to be looked at) so I was able to go closer my equipment.

Thursday should be interesting. I do take some comfort in the thought that maybe she will feel the need to wake up even earlier to beat me to class not me I will be enjoying the extra 10 minutes of sleep and finding a new spot far from Mr Ed.

Living the Dream!

Those who know me, know that vehicles of any type are just not my idea of a good time. Maybe because I suck at driving (I'm one of those who give women drivers a bad name). So funny that our family business involves selling things with large scary engines (don't ever let me on the sales floor) Last week we sponsored Monster Truck Jam which happened to fall on Valentines weekend so needless to say no romantic dinners, movies, flowers, or even a card instead we were consumed by Monster Trucks and fast food. So to quote my good friend Audrey (who also spent her V day with earplugs and french fries) "I'm Living the Dream!!"


Seriously the second night wasn't so bad. Max D won and cheese fries kind of rock!

(but Brandon I'm expecting flowers and fancy dinner, Jazz games don't count, and a day of snowshoeing or skiing sometime soon! love ya)

Happy Valentines Day!!


Good News!
My Dad is being moved out of ICU. He is making a remarkable recovery thanks to great doctors, early detection, and some miracles.
Thanks for the thoughts and prayers and especially the babysitting!

My Dad


Here is a typical picture of my father. He has always been the life of the party, supplying piggyback rides, ski days, jokes, and random adventures. A few years ago he got in a really bad ski accident and should have died. He pulled through but lost a spleen so we find ourselves today back in the ICU with a bacterial meningitis diagnosis. Hang in there Dad we love you! (We are having a fast for him this Sunday if anyone wants to join in)

Ahh Sunshine!





It's a rainy/ slushy day, no snowshoe expedition tonight so here are some happy day pictures. I had to bribe the kids with webkinz to get them on a hike. Funny how if Canyon, Ellie, or Felix are coming hiking is the best thing in the world but if it's just family payment is required.

Cheese Fries


Luke's on one today.
He woke up with two wishes (demands), cheese fries and the monster truck show (not the cartoon but the real one from the Speed channel)
We compromised with a P&B sandwich (I snuck in the wheat bread)
Now we are on to the next morning step "Making a giant mess" in his room.

Leapin Lizards!







It's always fun when Jessie is around! We took a winter break and headed to Coronado. We experienced warmer weather, played in a little bit of rain (no snow), explored the science museum, built monster truck ramps, met Jared, hiked, swam, became deathly ill (only Brandon he seems to be allergic to time off work) and relaxed.
(More Pictures to come)
