Unfinished Projects

I have an ongoing problem with unfinished projects. Right now I am blaming it on my crafty sewing sisters that keep getting the cutest fabrics in their online shop. T hey are having a drawing for a charm pack. The drawing ends today!

HAPPY Birthday JOEY!!!!!

Busy as a man can be????????

Joe has been preparing for weeks for today's BYU game ...... mentally and physically

But when you have the nicest neighbors in the world that are HUGE Oklahoma fans a little bit of friendly rivalry is inevitable

We flew our blue "Y" flag with pride, just like every other BYU game day


Joe has worked hard on the yard preparing it for game day

We have all had our BYU shirts on all day .... maybe we are all a little BYU crazy

GO COUGARS! Keep up the good work.
We are TRUE BLUE!!!!!!!!!!

First Day of School

First Grade

This is one excited first grader. He woke up at 5:51AM because he was so anxious to be to school. I am not sure how this "tradition" started but Joey likes me to take a picture of his backpack on the first day of school. It started back in his preschool days.

Joey's favorite part of school today was school lunch --- chicken nuggets, smiley face french fries, red jello and chocolate milk. Life doesn't get much better than that!

Sweet Sixteen PLUS one

Happy Anniversary
Super Seventeen!!!

We celebrated early in Las Vegas at the Donny and Marie show last weekend because Donny and Marie are on "vacation this weekend." It was AWESOME! One of the fun things about going to plays, musicals, concerts, etc. with Joe is that he insists on good seats or it isn't worth going. We had great seats ... good enough that during Marie's alone segment she flirted with Joe more times than I can count. She paid him sooooo much attention that the first thing Donny said when he came out is that he wanted to meet the guy in the green shirt named Joe.

Donny and Joe are already BFF. Five or six years ago Joe helped Donny get a breaker or wire or something electrical for his hot tub that needed fixed. They were on a first name basis and when Donny would call Joe at work he would say, "Hi Joe, this is Don." I am sure Donny often reflects on this experience. :)

While we were walking out of the show several people said, "Hi, Joe" and when we were crossing the street to get to Ceasars Palace for some much needed Cheesecake Factory cheesecake, a guy yelled out, "Hey, there's Joe." Something about that green shirt that everyone seemed to recognize.

This picture is the best we could do. No photography allowed inside the theater.

So glad that I am Joe's #1!!!

Where did the Summer Go???

My brother returned from his mission in Ireland. His plane was supposed to come in quite late so we were not going to see him for about a week. He ended up making an earlier connection and was going to arrive at the SLC airport around 6:30pm. We found this out at 3pm and jumped in the car and did a quick up and back in the same day to Orem. We got home at 1:30AM. So worth it! Joey's Swim MeetsTommy sporting Joey's googles
