Miracles Do Happen!



Brady and I went down with some other family members to the BYU bowl game in vegas this last weekend. Anyone that knows Brady and I, is aware that we have one distinct, but very large disagreement; BYU (me) VS. Utah (Brady)! With gas finally affordable and the fact that I have an awesome cousin that let us crash at her house (Thanks Em) and free club level tickets, I convinced Brady to go with me. After a 9 hour drive (it was a blizzard nearly the entire way), we finally got to Las Vegas! We were able to meet up with everybody and enjoy lunch at the MGM. Then it was time for the game and that's when the miracle happens! I don't know if many of you watched the game, but unfortunately, BYU lost the game (they didn't get beat, they lost) so that isn't the miracle! The miracle is that Brady actually cheered for BYU - he truly wanted them to win! I thought it was true love for his wonderful wife, but he informed me later the next day that he "can cheer for them when Utah is clearly better!" So much for true love! Nevertheless, a miracle did occur that Saturday night when I heard Brady cheer, "Go Cougars!"

An Early Christmas!

I know this is late, but i've always said, better late than never! While Dale's kids were up for Thanksgiving, we celebrated Christmas. I have to admit that it was a little chaotic with five kids, but they were so cute, it made up for it all! We also had a lot of fun hanging out with Cass, Jess, Chels, and Hyrum. We love it when they come up! We did find out that Wyatt and Halle are kind of bullies - they wanted to be of assistance opening everyone's presents, and once they were open, they wanted the takings for their own! Good thing Hardy, Cade and Brodee are easy going!
