BYU gametime!

Friday a friend offered us their tickets to the BYU game and I gladly accepted them. I don't think I have been to a game with Chris before, so I was excited to go. Remember I spent five years of my life going to every home game cheering on the team while I was a member of the Cougar Marching Band. Sitting in that stadium brought back a FLOOD of memories for me, especially hearing all the same band tunes that never seem to change. It was very nostalgic for me.

Me and my honey...take a look at the couple to the left, pretty funny. 

The actual game was pretty intense and fun. We pulled out the win in the end LITERALLY, so it was all good.

The power of the Wasatch!

Had to get a shot of us with the field behind us, the fans stormed the field at the end.

After the game we went to a dive of a place called Sammy's, it was SO GOOD! I can see them featuring it on Diner's, Dive's, Drive-in's.... YUM!

I always look forward to my weekly date nights with Chris, it was fun to do something out of the ordinary for us. Hope the opportunity comes around again!

Surfing Date Night

Last week we went with a group of our friends from the hood on a date night. We decided to go try surfing at the Provo Beach Resort. 

A group shot. Jeff and Melanie, Dani, John, Me, Justin and Chris (Lisa was taking the picture)

 Dani was awesome! This is not easy! It looks pretty simple, but alas.... not so much!

 John is a natural!

Dani right before a big spill.... I mean face plant. :-)

Another option to surfing... body boarding.

 An awesome shot of me going down! The down fall to crashing.... The water is shooting out with such force that it can take your bottoms right off. Learned this the hard way. Now I know what swimsuit NOT to wear! LOL

Yep that's my hot hubby ridding the wave!

 Oh ya baby.

 Justin was a great surfer!

 Another group shot. This was such a fun night out! Thanks everyone for being open to trying something new. Till the next extreme sport date night!

GO KARTS...aka crazy drivers!

Last night Chris and I went with some couples from our street to race go-karts. What a freaking fun time we had! If you have never done that then I highly recommend it. Those little buggers can go so fast....dangerously fast. We decided to race girls against girls and boys against boys. I was flying along, overtaking a few competitors in my quest to be in first when up from behind, my friend Carol hit me just right and sent me spinning out of control into the wall. I have never been in a car accident before, so this was a new sensation for me. I'm pretty sure that I have whiplash! But it was a blast and I'm so glad that we went. After racing we went to The Dodo to eat... yum! Before you put on the helmets you had to put on some type of headwear... Melanie is modeling hers.
Now Stephanie had to model it...cute. LOL
Jeremy had to jump at the chance to relive his youth. He is like 6'7, so it was pretty funny to see him sitting on this kids toy.

If you didn't want to purchase one of the AWESOME black hat covers then they had some sexy lunch lady hair nets that you could wear. They were pretty sweet. NOT.
Me and Steph, pre helmets.
Me and Nichole
Right before the ladies raced.
Yep, Chris can even ROCK a helmet. Hot stuff!
Carol- the craziest driver ever, she is the one that caused my awesome spin out!

All the girls looking at our race speeds and placements.... due to my crash, I came in last! :-(
Now it's the guys turn.
Ryan getting ready to zoom off.
My hottie hubby. I have to say, he was the SLOWEST driver of us all, I think he was lapped at least four times!
All the girls. Melanie, Carol (sorry for cutting your head off), Nichole, Stephanie and me.

The grand champs! Jeff and Melanie were the WINNERS! They were also the only ones who have done this before so I think that had a slight advantage over everyone.

So glad that we were able to spend time with our awesome friends! Next time we are going to do indoor surfing! I can't wait!!!

A wonderful christmas gift!

For Christmas our good friends Jake and Amy gave us a gift certificate to Fat Cats bowling alley. They said that we had to use it and go on a group date together (they also gave it to our friends the Barnes and Spencer's). Yesterday was the big date night and what a blast it was!!! Here are some of the crazy shots.



Kirstin after she got a strike!!!


Amy, Kristen and Me

The spouses (minus the Spencer's)

Chris, Jake 'Dough', Merrill 'Miles'

Kristen and Miles...ha ha Miles, you made it on my blog after all (he kept threatening "if these end up on your blog, you will get it!"

Me and Chris

A shot with the gift certificates...cheesy I know...oh well deal with it people!

'Dough' HATES to have his picture taken and his wife Amy ALWAYS has her camera and is taking pics! This picture captures the essence of it all!

Brett and Kirstin




They had HUGE hot chocolates (think 'so I married an axe murder')

It was REALLY hot and I burnt my tongue! Poor baby! Honey, quick, kiss it better!!! :-)

Kristen Bowling

Oh ya....were bad!!!

The proof that they have a volatile relationship!!! J/K....seriously though, notice what is in Amy's hand...yep, a camera. She was trying to take an action shot of 'Dough' and he had had enough!

Love this one of Aim

When my daughter saw this she asked "Why are they ALWAYS kissing?" I told her that they were trying to set a good example for your dad. HINT HINT!

Okay, so my JERK friends are always giving me a hard time about not ever sharing drinks with them. I admit that I have a huge germ/slobber phobia. I personally don't see anything wrong with not wanting to suck on something that someone's bodily fluid has touched. So I had my own drink and they were all sharing (dry heaving right now!!). I guess that they took this picture while I was in the bathroom. Yep that is my cup and yep, I drank it all gone before they showed me this picture. YA JERKS!



This was taken after I figured out what they had done...actually first I threw ice at ALL of them! They are such MEANERS!

You would think that he had just made a strike...nah, he gutter balled BOTH balls!!!

I guess that this is pay back! They thought that I was taking their picture, not video taping them. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH (said while rubbing hands together aggressively!) But not to worry girls, you will get yours!!!

Thanks again Jake and Amy for such a wonderful time!! We love you guys!
