My First Time on Skiis!!!

It was an adventure and I LOVED it! I went cross country skiing with my roommate and her family yesterday up in Midway. I'd never been on skiis before in my life, but I'd say I did pretty good and picked it up pretty quickly. I couldn't get enough of it, that's for sure! I did fall down several times, but that makes it fun right! I think I'll be sticking to cross country skiing for now. Regular skiing looks too scary for me.....

TRIUMFANT!!!!!

My last game of the season was a little scaaaary..... but we did it! We WON!! I say scary because this team really wasn't that good, but we only won by 7 points. We shot a million baskets, but nothing was going in. I was getting so frustrated!! We really should have won by at least 20 points.

Our record now stands 7 and 4 (won 7 that is), which I must say we lost all of our games at the beginning the season minus one team who was and is undefeated. We have made HUGE progress. I'm happy with their success.

Tournament is in 2 short weeks and I anticipate the trophy in our hands. Cheer us on!!! We will be going in as #2 or 3 seed. We are going to ROCK it!

Super Bowl Commercials

Ok so for some reason, I've always really liked watching commercials....sometimes even more than the tv program itself. I like to see what the companies come up with I guess and how creative they can be. I like the funny ones, obviously! These usually end up being beer commercials however, desafortunadamente (my favorite Spanish word to say - just throwin' it out there!)

I really enjoyed my marketing class at BYU that I took for my business minor for this reason. Didn't want to be late to that class! So the Super Bowl ads really disappointed me this year. I mean, come on?! Is this really all you can come up with? Some ads I see and just think, what on earth were you thinking?! Anyway, this is my favorite of the bunch. I guess cause I think of "ANGRY EYES!!" from Toy Story. Pretty much it's the only one that even elicited a small laugh from me......

Off to the Moon....!!!!

So you all probably own something characteristic of yourself that really shows your peronality to the outside world. For me, it's my Moon Boots....couldn't live without 'em that's for sure! I like to be goofy sometimes, ok a lot! So I bought my moon boots 5 years ago and they're still going strong. This was after the whole Napolean Dynamite fab and I saw them in a sports store for 10 bucks....I couldn't resist! They have been my best friend ever since! I've worn them all over the place and then some. This winter, though, they have been especially practical and useful. I'm not used to all this snow.

Last Sunday, for example, was a nightmare outside with snow/rain and a huge wet mess. So I was going to wear my boots just to/from the car, but there was no way I was going to take them off or my feet would get soaked. So I wore them to church! They totally did NOT match and looked pretty ridiculous - most girls wear those pretty leather boots with heels that are super cute you know. Then here I am. I was standing out in the hall waiting for Relief Society to begin when this dude walks by me and says "I like your boots." Now this guy knows what's going on!! He can fully appreciate them along with me...... it was a joyous moment to say the least.

What do you own that shows your personality?

THE BEST JOB IN THE WORLD

I applied! I applied!! It's been all over the news and I thought, what the heck? What have I got to lose? It sounds amazing & ideal for sure. Here is a job description from the website itself:

"The Caretaker of the Islands of the Great Barrier Reef is a newly created position. There are a few minor tasks that need to be taken care of, but the most important duty is to report back to Tourism Queensland (and the world) and let us know what’s taking place on the Islands of the Great Barrier Reef."

Caretaker of the islands in Australia? I'm totally there!
