Go Utes!!

Saturday was a great game! Sorry to my BYU friends :( We had a fun day tailgating which included breakfast and lunch. Thanks Ricci's. We took Cole for a few hours and he loved all the people to play with.


Check out the old man behind us. He was close to 117 years old.


The girls - I am not sure who's hand is close to caressing Lauren :).


We thought we would take a picture in the bathroom since we spent forever waiting in lines.

Most of the group. It is kind of a horrible picture of all of us.



Rachel and I. Her comment was "I think I have about 600 pictures of you and I just like this" it is true. I will spare you all the photo montage. Look at all the people tailgating. It was a fun day.

Cole and Cousin Coon. He loved all the attention. He would just toddle over to a new person and hang out.





Cole and Harm. Thanks again for setting up the tickets each year Harm.

Why Hillary is my favorite

Hillary is my favorite because she scored Twilight tickets for us Thursday at 5pm. She has "people" that can do that sort of thing. It was a great surprise. Yep I just got back and it was great. Don't worry I would never spoil it. It was serious business. They were wanding every person with metal detectors and taking cellphones and cameras away, putting them into little white lunch sacks with the owners names and returning them at the end of the movie. I even was frisked - really they were frisking people. Quite the full service evening :) It was easier to get into the White House tour than to see the Twilight movie. They made airport security look easy.
All my Twilight friends enjoy. There were many girlie squeals from the audience, literally the girls behind us were screaming and gasping for breath at one point. Although if they tell you to leave your cellphone in the car, listen to them.
Thank you Hillary :) your the best. If only we could have had your mom drive us to and from the movie - it would have been like we were 14 again.

Test Turkey and Tackle practice

Well the test turkey turned out great. It did however take close to 2 hours longer that I expected. I was glad I didn't have a house full of hungry family waiting. Justin, Cole and I had a lovely mini Thanksgiving at 8:30 at night. A little late, but I was pleased with the outcome and surprised at how much turkey Cole could eat. He just kept saying "mo, mo, mo", which in baby-slang (or baby-bonics as I like to call it) is more.

While we were waiting for the turkey to finish Cole learned he could pull things out of the cupboards and pass them off to the dog. Lovely. Partners in crime. We have lost 2 bottles, a few Tupperware containers and were about 3 seconds away from my cellphone being crunched in the doggy jaws of steel. I did get pretty good at tackling the dog. For being 106 lbs (the dog not me..I would be dead) with 2 replaced knees he is unbelievably fast.

Cole loved it. He would laugh so hard he would fall down. When I would catch the dog he would point at the dog and say "mo, mo, mo". Sadly for him I asked Justin to install the baby locks on the cabinets. Now Cole and Bailey walk from cupboard to cupboard trying to open them and find treasures. Poor little guy at least he is persistent.
